Slave To The Grind
Doug Robert Brown, Canada, 2018, 99 min
If you lived in Flint Michigan, USA in the 80s, you likely worked in an auto factory. If you lived in Birmingham, England in the 80s, you likely worked in an industrial setting. If you were a teenager in either of these cities during those years, you either accepted your fate or broke the mold. In defiance of tradition, groups of punk rockers and metalheads in these respective cities created a new sound, and consequently a new genre of music that was too punk for metalheads, and too heavy for punks.
Grindcore fused the anarchistic attitudes of the UKs Punk scene with the speed and drunken aggression of Death Metal, which was simultaneously being created in the US. When Napalm Death released ‘Scum’ in 1986, world-renowned BBC DJ, John Peel, announced that ‘Grindcore’ was the fastest and most abrasive sounding music imaginable, and he was right.
Slave To The Grind is the first documentary on Grindcore to capture the genre’s 35 year life span. The film takes you to Japan, the United States, UK, Australia, Singapore, Finland and Sweden to discuss why the genre has persisted, and changed, over time.
Mai 2018 – Qui l’eu cru? Déjà 20 ans??? non, c’était hier n’est-ce pas? Beaucoup de fluides ont coulés sous les ponts depuis le lancement du SANG FRAIS #1 (3 mai 1998: Dragon Lore + Aphasia au Café Chaos). Le dernier Sang Frais ayant été publié en 2005, c’est donc dire que tous les metalleux du Québec qui célèbreront leurs 20 ans cette année n’ont probablement jamais eu le plaisir de nous lire. Peut-être le Sang Frais est-il simplement une légende urbaine? un mythe?
Peu importe, sa mission de faire passer les artisans à l’histoire aura été accomplie haut la main, et ce site se veut une façon de partager les souvenirs de notre magnifique scène locale. Voici donc pour vous, les SANG FRAIS #1 à #17 en PDF à lire dans le confort de votre foyer. Cheers!

JOHN COLTRANE‘Blue World’ (1964-2019)
The album was recorded at Van Gelder Studio with the Classic Quartet in between the Crescent and A Love Supreme sessions for the film Le chat dans le sac. Director Gilles Groulx was friends with Jimmy Garrison and he used that relationship to request songs for Coltrane’s quartet to record. Groulx traveled to the United States to attend the recording sessions for Coltrane’s only soundtrack work and Coltrane recorded it without informing his record label. After three hours in the studio, Groulx took the master tapes with him to Canada. When the director ended up shelving most of the music, it went unreleased until 2019, when Coltrane’s long-time label Impulse! Records decided to release it, with the original composition “Blue World” being released on August 16, 2019 along with the announcement of the album. Release was delayed by several years due to the NFB owning the rights to the tape itself but Impulse! having the rights to release it as an album.
The recordings were stored away until the early 21st century, when an archivist from the National Film Board of Canada was tasked with assembling Groulx’s work; the government agency negotiated with Impulse! to have the album released. This album comes a year after the successful release of Both Directions at Once: The Lost Album, also from Impulse!, capturing a Classic Quartet session from 1963 and is part of a trend of unreleased albums from 1950s and 1960s jazz greats released in the 2010s.

Le chat dans le sac
Gilles Groulx, Canada, 1964, 1 h 14 min
Premier long métrage de fiction de Gilles Groulx, dans lequel il intègre les méthodes du direct. Le casting est composé d’acteurs non professionnels, les dialogues sont improvisés et le tournage en continuité réalisés dans des décors naturels assurent la spontanéité et l’authenticité propres aux productions documentaires. À travers la confrontation d’un couple dans la vingtaine, ce film pose la grande question de l’accession à la maturité politique du peuple québécois telle que perçue par un cinéaste épris d’idéal et d’absolu.
"The production of nervous force is directly connected with the diet of an individual, and its refining depends
on the very purity of this diet, allied to appropriate breathing exercises.
The diet most calculated to act effectively on the nervous force is that which contains the least quantity of
animal matter; therefore the Pythagorean diet, in this connection, is the most suitable.
...
The main object was to avoid introducing into the organism what Descartes called 'animal spirits'. Thus, all
animals that had to serve for the nourishment of the priests were slaughtered according to special rites, they
were not murdered, as is the case nowadays".
