"Blow", their second album is absolutely amazing!! :cool: I've been listening to it for several months now and I can't get tired of it! :p My favourite tracks are "Blow" of course, "The Dragster Wave" and "Sea-side Friends"! :$
I've seen them live several times and they're terrific! :D

They're doing quite a lot of summer festivals this year so you can catch them on the road! They're really worth it! :D
I already have my ticket for their show at l'Olympia in Paris, but it's in June... It's gonna be long til then! :rolleyes:

I need to ask something to the owners of Blow
It might be a silly stupid question with a fucking obvious answer but I'm tired, ok ?
right.
is there really a "dirty spell against piracy"/a copy controlled system ?
because I'd like to turn the album into MP3s to listen to the songs in my MP3 player, and I don't want to freeze my PC to death just by putting the CD into the player, you see.
thanks in advance for your patient explaination for the stupid person that I am.

yeah you are :stunned: Blow is their 2nd album...

@Lady E : I don't really know but I guess it's not because now they don't have the right do prevent people from doing a private copy or to put it on their computer...
but if you didn't succeed I've got it in mp3 so I'll send them to you by msn or something like that ;)

Edit : By the way : woohoo people on my thread :D

hey a friend of mine offered me this week end a dvd of a gig in Belgium for a Birthday party at l'Ancienne Belgique club and there were 3 bands (Ghinzu of course, Girls in Hawaii and Sharko) :cool: you should see it ! soooooooooooo great :D

Molkette
16-05-2005, 09:05 AM
Yeah the DVD's cool but as far as Ghinzu are considered, I think their performance is far better now!

Mané
16-05-2005, 09:36 AM
yeah it's true and also their performance on the DVD is too short (compared to the other bands) and for me they are far better than the others ;)
I wish they wore their "afro wig" :(

:LOL: I find no relation between Ghinzu and the 2 other bands :confused:
I've read in :$ Rockmag :rolleyes: yeah I know...anyway...they compared them to...Muse :D I think it's closer than The Strokes for example and as Muse were compared to Radiohead...we can conclude that Ghinzu looks like a little bit to Radiohead can't we ? :happy:

hum let's talk about Ghinzu ! I guess Muse for the keyboard thing and Radiohead for the experimentations on their music and the blend of different styles !!!

ho and Muse again for this: :D

Hey everyone!
I've been wondering where all of the Ghinzu fans were! yey!
Im from Oxford and I was introduced to Ghinzu by my french friend (me being half french I go to France and Belgium alot) and I've loved them from the first song I heard from them- Blow. :rolleyes:
I'm so addicted to their music, it's really unique and I'd loved to see them live.
I've introduced Ghinzu to several of my friends at school and other places such as Wales and all of the feedback I got were things like-They're amazing!..I want their album...and..Why haven't I heard their music before now? :) :p
The only problem is.. their album isnt on sale over in the Uk! How stupid! They would be loved if they came over to the Uk..even if they're small gigs(the smaller the better I think!). But they've only come over here in 2003! I want them to come over here now!! :'(
I'd go all the Way to Scotland to see them play. Are there any other Ghinzu fans that agree with me? Where are you guys from? :)
Eugenie :p

i've got lot more !!! i'll post some if you want ;)

@*babewithtickets*: even in France only the second album was released :( but the first in as great as the 2nd :cool: but I'm sure they'll be very successful all over the world soon ;) it's true, their music is soooooooo good ! all of their songs ! every time I heard them i'm speechless and just be able to say "wow" :LOL:

*babewithtickets*
22-05-2005, 05:59 PM
Is the 1st album is the one with songs such as 'turn up the satan' and 'plans for nigel'? Ive got that..it came with the 2nd album.
I really hope that they come. Im worried that they won't until they release a 3rd album. Do you guys think that they're already working on a 3rd album? :rolleyes:
Anyway..ill stop dreaming..hehe..
Peace out plp!! :)

Molkette
22-05-2005, 06:53 PM
Yep, "Turn Up The Satan" (I love that song! :cool: ) is on "Electronic Jacuzzi" but "Plans for Nigel" is just a cover they did for a radio show! ;)
I'm sure they'll go back to England some time, they already did once so there's no reason why they shouldn't go back there!...
I don't think they're already working on their 3rd album though, they're still on the road until the end of the summer festivals... ;) Luckily they'll be back with new material next year! :unsure:

Mané
23-05-2005, 06:37 AM
yeah they released a version of the 2nd album with some songs of their 1st one but you should listen to the whole album it does really worth it :happy:
is 'Dragon' part of the songs put on the 2nd album ? this song is amazing !
but I don't know Nigel :(

just few links:

http://rock.saipm.be/20040212/index.htm (this is about the concert I have on dvd :D and there's an interview of the singer too they're gonna do Glastonbury :stunned: :cool: )

Thanx for the second link! ;) I had never seen those lovely piccies!

"Dragon" is not on the bonus CD which came along the limited edition of "Blow"... I really love that song but especially live! :cool: And I like John's sexy twist on that one! :LOL:

"Making Plans For Nigel" is a song of XTC's! ;) Good song and very well performed by Ghinzu! :D I know... I can't be very objective when it comes to Ghinzu! :D

heya everyone!
Most of the Ghinzu fans I know are french or belgian.
What I'm curious to find out is whether they understand the lyrics. :rolleyes:
Blow in particular is pretty graphic ( like system of a down)..
Could someone french please translate these lyrics from Blow- Don't you spit it out, I'm coming on your face.
It's still an awsome song but I was just curious to see what people thought of their intersting use of English language. :LOL:
Love you all lots!! hehe :D

*babewithtickets*
27-05-2005, 09:16 AM
wow! that's sooo close! My aunt who introduced me to Ghinzu is the florist in Mouvaux (Coté Campagne)..she went to see Ghinzu in Tourcoing ( cant spell.lol)
Im going to be in Mouvaux for all of July and the beginning of August..and Im crap with knowing where places are and so when I look at where Ghinzu are playing I never know whether it's near Mouvaux..
Could you pretty please tell me if you do ever see that Ghinzu are playing around max 3 hours away Mouvaux there during the time that im in Mouvaux? <3 :$ :)
btw- Of course I'd do the same thing for you guys if i ever heard some gripping news about Ghinzu. :D
Those pics of him are...wow..hehe..

First gig of theirs for me and it was love at first sight! :D If you're already in Mouvaux on July 1st, they're doing a gig at the Folies de Maubeuge which is about 1h15 from there! ;) Maybe I'll go too! :happy: But the next day, I'm due to being at Werchter festival, so...

Yep, it's a small festival! That's where I got to see Muse for the 1st time! :happy:

As for Werchter, I'm going for Interpol, Bloc Party and the Mars Volta! I'm not sure QOTSA are performing on that day, I know there are Rammstein :eek: and Nine Inch Nails :eek: on the main stage!

Well I listened to the radio session of Ghinzu on Le Mouv', they played "Do You Read Me" (what a surprise! :rolleyes: ) and a cover of "Blue Suede Shoes" by Elvis! The set was rather short but the itw wasn't too bad! :p

Mané
28-05-2005, 04:57 PM
I listened to it too, I agree with you too short and it wasn't even an uplugged they didn't played loads of songs because of a balance prob apparently :indiff:
I think Le Mouv' sucked because 30 minutes it's a shame :indiff: :mad:

Molkette
29-05-2005, 07:20 AM
They were performing in Ray Cokes' show TV called "C.U.L.T." on France 5 yesterday! I haven't watched it yet, I heard they played "Do You Read Me" of course :rolleyes: and another song. I recorded it so that I can watch it later! :happy:

you'll tell us everything about the show ? je compte sur toi ;)
kind of. people didn't had the idea to make a queue, we were all waiting on the street with no order, and when they opened the doors of the virgin, it was a bit like subway during rush hour : everyone wants to get in, in the same time, and they don't let people get out :rolleyes: but I'm trained and my friend and I both had our tix
for the picture, I don't know if I could, they often check bags at the entry, and I don't want to be bounce out or to let my digital camera to a stranger :unsure:
but telling you details, that I can :)

Molkette hasn't survive to l'Olympia ? Post a review !!!

Last night, Show-case @ Le Nouveau Casino, with OuïFM
My mate and I arrived 1 hr before the opening of the doors, there were only 15 persons before us. :cool: We were queueing between the doors and a yellow van and... we saw several guys from Ghinzu coming on the street, going in the van picking up their suits and stuff, going in tha bar next door, and looking at us in amazement because we were numerous :eek: and no-one had the balls to talk to them :rolleyes:
Then we came inside, and the place is really small: no gap between the crowd and the stage, no barreer, we could have touched things on stage ! :ohmy: My friend and I were at the second row, a bit on the right of the piano. Unfortunatelly we couldn't see the drummer but great view on all the rest !
We were so close, I heard John burping after he drank beer, and he spited on me too, and we had a beer shower when he fucked up things during Do You Read Me ?. :LOL: During Blow my mate and I were the only one to jump, but then the crowd was great, even a bit too pogoing for my taste (and god I hate people screaming in moments of silence just to feel important... but John took the piss out of one, it was fun :LOL: ). During the little bit of Purple Rain, John looked at me, I was embarrassed :$ Great gig, just a bit short due to the releasing on the radio (did someone listen to it ?)
at the end, my mate and I took empty cans of beer of John, and I stole a poster too :unsure: pictures later.
I'm fucking happy I went to that gig :D

Mané
15-06-2005, 10:04 AM
Wow... :cool: he spited on you :LOL: you were able to take pics ?!?! :D
when I saw them in Marseille we were obliged with my friend to go out of the crowd because of the pogo :indiff: I hate that too but what an amazing show !!!

they're so good live !!! for me the best of almost all the gigs I've done :unsure: even Muse... :unsure: :$

San
15-06-2005, 10:22 AM
yeah, I think it was my best gig eva !!!
I haven't took my camera with me (I've been smart because we would have been kicked out if they found one, even if some people succeed to enter with camera and took pictures). I only came with my subway card, the key of my letterbox, and my tix :cool:
You made me think I've been pissed off by the Ouï FM photographer until my mate yell at him :LOL: so I think we'll have picture on the site :cool:

What can I say about the gig @ l'Olympia? It was spectacular!! :D

My sister and I arrived around 7.45 pm. On the front of the venue, "Ghinzu" written in big red letters, wow! Pretty impressive!
We got in and found ourselves a place in the moshpit, pretty close from the stage, a bit on the left. The venue is absolutely delightful: kind of a theater, decorated in red fabric, little lights around the mezzanine...
8.00: Millionaire came onstage. Very hard rock, we couldn't hear the frontman's voice much but we could see he was screaming! It reminded me of Metallica but in worse!... The only song I enjoyed was "Champagne"...
9.20: The lights turned off again. The thick red curtain of the stage opens on the theme of Star Wars! 5 storm troopers are standing in line! First, the afro whigs, then the gorilla's masks, and now that! What a great surprise!! :LOL: Ghinzu then came onstage dressed in black suits, John & Kris wearing dark shades, just like superstars: we went absolutely mad!! :LOL: The troopers then left the stage.
The show starts with Blow: very smooth at first and then it grows and grows on you until it bursts! I could litterally feel the ground bumping under my feet! Then HVQ, Dragon (with John's little twist), Jet Sex :$ /Cockpit Inferno, The Dragster Wave (I'm dying! :'( Goose spots all over my body, tears coming to my eyes...), 21st Century Crooners, Do You Read Me (everyone went nuts!!), then a cover of Blue Suede Shoes dedicated to John's father who was there, Dracula Cowboy, and the explosive Mine!
First break of the show: it's hot in here, I'm breatless, dying for a drink!...
Only John and Kris come back. John sits at the piano and starts playing Sweet Love!... :'( Wonderful! Then the rest of the band arrive for Bingo It's Heaven! I had never heard it live before and mwah! :happy:
Second break of the show: the band is joined by David of Soldout for the remix version of Mine! Amazing!! Just as if we were in a huge nightclub! :LOL: Everyone jumping, dancing!... And last but not least, the cover of Purple Rain followed by the terrific 'Til You Faint!
What a show, what a blast, what a f*****g experience!! :D The band must have had the pressure but it didn't show!! It was amazing, John kept on talking to us, smiling, making fun by asking the girls to scream... Unforgettable!!
Definitely one of the best gigs of them I've been to with the one @ l'Ancienne Belgique! A gig I will never forget! :D

there's an article about Ghinzu in 'Sortir' by Télérama.
They talk about the gig in l'Olympia, the journalist says it sounds like Muse, Radiohead and dEus, but John says he likes Television, Pink Floyd, the Melvins and The Stranglers, and he thinks Franz Ferdinand sound too much like Gang of Four, The Strokes like the Stooges, Interpol is new wave, when Ghinzu want to sound like lots of different things, like Queen or the Whoo.
they explain ghinzu is a japanese brand of knifes, "the more you cut, the more shaped they are".
just to let you know about the main things said in it.
I like what John said about listening to music in the street, sounds like me with my MP3 player :LOL:

ghinzu doesn't have political messages, we don't make it intelectual. We play Rock to give people the feeling we had once. Like when you listen to music and you walk in the street and you feel like you're invincible with supernatural powers, able to cut trains in two" or something like that.

Actually the band's performance was great: John was in a good shape, dancing like a mad man on "Dragon", chatting, introducing the songs, making the crowd participate on "Mine"...
Kris was amazing too (even though he was sick the day before): I love to hear him scream on "Dragon"!...
Mika counted in the microphone during "Mine"!...

But a part of the crowd was a shame... Maybe because it was free access, some stupid guys just came over to get drunk and to mess around... I don't mind people getting drunk as long as they don't disturb me... Some of them were so drunk... It was really pathetic and annoying...

Despite that, it was delightful! The stage was right between the Parc and le Palais Royal which were both nicely enlightened.
The night was starry and sweet: I couldn't stop looking up high in the sky to watch the stars shine... :cool:
Apparently, we were between 30,000 and 40,000 people gathered there which is pretty impressive!...

Great gig, great vibe, amazing show!... :happy:
It had been a while since I hadn't been so close to the stage, and seeing the band so good was a real delight!
Ghinzu were the last band on stage, so their show lasted more than an hour and a half! Two encores, with Rascal Pop for the final, nothing new as for the setlist, but gosh, what a blast!! Greg was stoned (as usual!) and he really scared us by falling off the stage!... :eek: No harm, luckily!...
Someone in the crowd had brought a pair of very tacky sunglasses, Greg asked a security guy to grab them for him, so he spent most of the set with those terrible sunglasses on! :LOL: He looked like Michel Polnareff!! Silly him!!
Anyway, I had a great time, and I'm looking forward to the next one! :fro: :D

28-08-2005, 05:30 PM
It was kind of a VIP night! :p Here's the story:

7 pm: I'm looking for the venue. I was told it was kind of a wharehouse, somewhere alongside the river. Nothing aroud me but wharehouses... tricky...

After several forth and comings, I spot a poster "Petrol Deluxe" on a very rusty gate. I enter the site, see a parking lot, very few cars, two vans :fro: , a door open on the side of the building, and two girls waiting outside... I'm guessing it's there! I park my car next to the van, get out, and hear Ghinzu playing! They're doing their soundcheck!
I start talking to the 2 very friendly girls, we watch the soundcheck from where we are standing... A little gig for ourselves!
After the soundcheck is over, Fab gets out and leaves, Kris get outs to give a phone call! I start talking to him, he signs my CD cover!... Good start!
He goes back in, then the drummer of Mud Flow gets out: "Hello there!"...

The 2 girls and I really need to go to the bathroom so we ask someone of the staff if we can use the bathroom inside. "Sure!"
We get in, the venue is in fact a nightclub, quite small, just a small bar in the back, a kind of DJ podium in the middle, and a stage. As we get out of the bathroom, Mud Flow start their soundcheck. We sit in a corner and watch the soundcheck! Nobody asks us to leave, so we won't! :D
After Mud Flow's souncheck, we walk around and find ourselves backstage! "Oh look, John's keyboard!!" Time runs fast...

10.15 pm: The doors are open to the public. We rush ourselves just in front of the stage. I can't believe it, I'm right against the stage (which is very low), no space between the moshpit and the scene, just in front of the middlestage micro!!
The venue is still empty, very few people... It's gonna be very intimistic!!

11.20 pm: Mud Flow come onstage. Very good, 2nd time I have seen them, really good band and music! The drummer recognizes me, blinks at me and keeps smiling at me!... "Stop it, you're making me uncomfortable!" :D

12.20 pm: Mud Flow leave the stage after a pretty good performance. The room is still quite empty!... Weird!...
"Oh look, Mika's here!" I go talk to him, he signs my CD cover... Very nice! :D

1.20 am: Ghinzu come onstage! My head is right over John's keyboard! As I look down, I can see his terrible white shoes, no socks... :LOL:
"Blow" launches the set, then "Dragon" (no "HVQ" for this time :'( ), "Jet Sex/Cockpit Inferno", "Dragster Wave"...
Kris recognizes me and smiles at me!... "Stop it, I'm gonna faint now!"... :LOL: We can feel they must be very tired after such a long tour, but their performance is still incredible!
"Dracula Cowboy", "Do You Read Me", "Blue Suede Shoes"... Greg is hot and takes off his shirt!
"Mine", John makes us applause in rhythm, steps on his keyboard: "Oh my, he's gonna fall over me!"... "Look at that tooshy!"...
Encore: "Purple Rain" and "Til You Faint", Mika stares at me while playing right behind the keyboard! "That's it now, I'm really gonna faint!" :LOL:
2.20 am: The band comes offstage... :'( Over already... But god, what a fucking night!! It was quite a short set, but in the best conditions ever!! Small venue, lot of space around to dance and move, very good view, loads of smiles!... "Mummy please, I wanna go back in time!!..." :'(

Well, I'm a member of Ghinzu's Belgian forumboard, and I'm one of the ball breaker members who begged the band for a new release of EJ.
They did release the new edition, and inside the booklet of the CD, they dedicate this new release to a list of their board members including me! So my name (Molkette) is on the booklet!:LOL:
