Squeaky Wheel presents: TRASH HUMPERS, a new film by Harmony Korine.

“Leaves the residue of an authentic nightmare. You’ll want to shower afterward.” – David Ansen, Newsweek

‘TRASH HUMPERS is the cinematic equivalent of listening to black metal.’ Guardian

When Harmony Korine (KIDS, GUMMO, JULIEN DONKEY-BOY and MISTER LONELY) was asked about the violent characters in the film, he said, "It's kind of like an ode to vandalism. There can be a creative beauty in their mayhem and destruction. You could say these characters are poets or mystics of mayhem and murder, bubbling up to the surface. They do horrible things, but I never viewed them as sad characters. They're comedic, with a vaudevillian horror element to what they do. They dance as they smash things and set them on fire. They're having a great time."

Married with a kid, and now residing in his native Nashville, cinematic provocateur Harmony Korine shows no signs of settling down. Hailed as “the future of American cinema” by Werner Herzog, writer/ director Korine has blazed a trail with his consistently idiosyncratic output. TRASH HUMPERS sees him return to the big screen with an excoriating attack on the American Dream. A lo-fi production of white-heat intensity, Korine calls it, “a new type of horror; palpable and raw.”

TRASH HUMPERS follows a small gang of sinister ‘elderly’ peeping toms through the shadows of a nightmarishly familiar suburban landscape. Their shocking and sociopathic behavior makes for unbearably compelling viewing that scorches itself onto the mind’s eye.

WE RECOMMEND ARRIVING EARLY TO GET A GOOD SEAT. (EVEN IF YOU HAVE RESERVED A TICKET).

Catch Tortoise Thursday at Soundlab


Thursday, September 2, 9pm--TORTOISE, FOUREM.

By Cory Perla for Artvoice:
Not many bands can say they invented their own genre. Tortoise can. Post-rock didn’t exist before 1994, the year that Tortoise released their first, self titled album. What they’ve created since then are songs, using traditional rock instruments, that transcend rock music. Their guitar strings expel textures and atmospheres rather than hooks and riffs. Their percussion acts as an anchor, but it’s usually impossible to tell just how many hands are actually crashing on each noise-producing drum head as all of the members are multi-instrumentalists. When they perform live there are two dueling drum kits set up facing each other, as percussionist John McEntire (also of the band the Sea and Cake) sits adjacent to musicians John Herndon and Dan Bitney, while they intermittently switch between guitar and drums. Between their massive ambient dream-scape tracks and their driving, jazz based epics the band has a catalog of music as emotionally variant as any classical music composer of the last century and are just as influential. Their latest album, Beacons of Ancestorship is a bit more worldly sounding than their previous five albums, but it still moves at an unrelenting pace. Last time Tortoise came to town they played the Tralf, (and the performance was recorded in it’s entirety for Artvoice TV) but this time it will be a much more personal experience when the band takes the stage of Soundlab next Thursday (Sept 2), with local support from Fourem.
Tortoise's John McEntire visited Soundlab as part of the Red Krayola on 08/06/06. Also on the bill was The Vores and DJ Dave G.
