Hic-up reviews

THE HIC-UP #1
By multiple artists, free

By Gary Hornberger
Monday, November 26 @ 18:11:38 EST

Punk rock in a free comic, how great is that? This little dude has several good little stories, including my favorite: bowling ball head and his first punk show. I also like the Christmas wish list, because everyone likes Mountain Dew. If this little dude stays the course, they’re going to have to up the printing quantities. I must say this is better than Fun Time Comix. (madisonundergroundpress@hotmail.com)

THE HICUP # 2
By Various artists, $?
Okay, this little book seemed doomed from the start. With only two stories—if you can call them that—and some columns and reviews at the back. The first story is about a guy who missed out on the punk experience at a high school that housed some great punk band three years earlier, but now all that the scene is, is tough guy hardcore. The second story is about the metaphysical game of Ms. Pacman. Who knew such a thing existed? All this made me tired and I can’t tell you anything about what lies in the column and reviews section. Maybe it saved the comic? (www.madisonundergroundpress.com)

more review!

Tit Patrol – Shut Up Juice (Madison Underground Records)

There is little expected when opening up an album called “Shut up Juice” by a band called Tit Patrol. Of course, this only helps their cause because without any lofty expectations it can hopefully only be better than expected. Queers-like lyrics that you can actually understand (clearly with songs like “Butt Foot”, “Daily Lobotomy”, and “Surfin’ Suzey”), chanted choruses, and a little bit of speed. It’d be easy to discard this band as another novelty – a group of ridiculous teenagers who have nothing to offer. While it’s true that they aren’t doing anything particularly new they are doing it better than many other bands who they are emulating. “Candy Not Cops” is the sort of song that could win over any teenager with a sense of humor, and “One of my moods” shows that they can write some pretty clever lyrics with some pretty innovative songwriting too. It’s also absolutely embarrassing and adorable that they spelled ‘you’re’ and ‘rhythm’ incorrectly. It reminds me of high school and falling in love with punk rock music. Not too shabby for a band named Tit Patrol.

this from alrightimwrong.com best review tit patrol ever done got, and how come i cant upload images boo!

TIT PATROL "shut up juice" mCd (Madison underground)
American uptempo pop-punk, along the lines of THE RAMONES and THE QUEERS. They also sound a lot like many of those early LOOKOUT rds bands. The songs are short, which is cool, and overall the music’s pretty good. I just have no idea what the lyrics are about. Girls it seems ? http://www.madisonundergroundpress.com (Y.B.)


THE HEADIES "it’s a superman’s world" mCd (Madison underground)
It seems MADISON UNDERGROUND is specializing in pop-punk bands, cos this is another American band that sounds like they could be on LOOKOUT, HONEST DON’S, etc. The sound quality is good, they cover THE RAMONES and ANGRY SAMOANS… but where’s the lyric sheet ?? http://www.madisonundergroundpress.com (Y.B.)

we got some pretty good reviews from... http://www.punk-hardcore.info/ go check out the page its got good info.

The orphan works Bill... Can Screw Off

so for those of you working in any filed with intellactual property should look into the orphan works bill, if passed it will really mess shit up. if you go to http://www.illustratorspartnership.org you can find all the info you need to see how fucked this would be. it alows you to contact your senator very easily with a body of text that looks something like this...

Dear Senator Biden:

As a constituent, I am writing to express my grave misgivings about H.R. 5889, The Orphan Works Act of 2008. I strongly oppose this bill.

I would like to make it clear that I am not opposed to usage of orphan works by the cultural heritage sector for noncommercial purposes, or use by museums and libraries for preservation and education. But this legislation makes no limitations for these purposes, and will dangerously expose visual art to infringements while stripping artists and the art licensing business of any practical means to protect their creations.

The Orphan Works Act will affect all images from professional paintings to family snapshots. This includes any image, whether published or unpublished - or any that resides or ever resided on the internet. It will force me to register every image I make with privately-held commercial registries. All unregistered works will be exposed as potential orphans for commercial infringement.

This radical change to U.S. copyright law will shift the burden of diligence from infringers to rights holders. All of us will have to regularly monitor the unauthorized use of our most personal work - an impossible task because infringements can occur anytime, anywhere in the world. It is wrong to give infringers the right to make money from my property without my knowledge or consent. How could I ever stop bad actors from using it in abusive, cheap or distasteful ways? I am alive, working and "locatable" to anyone I wish to find me. I am managing my copyrights in accord with U.S. and international law. I should not have to pay some for-profit company to keep the work I've created.

Copyright laws are based on legal and business practices that have passed the test of time. They protect a vulnerable form of private property and the privacy rights embodied in them. They should not be undermined for the sake of special interest groups or for transitory reasons.

For those and other reasons, I ask you to consider the harm this bill can do to existing businesses and vote against it unless it is amended to precisely define an orphan work as a copyright no longer managed by a rightsholder.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed Orphan Works legislation.
Sincerely,
Todd Purse
