The Official ÜBER RÖCK Review Of 2009 - how awesome does that sound? This time last year a website that finally put our thinking into practice seemed a long way off for me and Johnny H. But then a few of months full of mutual hatred for the ignorant spurred us on to do what we had threatened for some time.......and Über Röck was born. Now, some million hits later, we have the chance to look back at the year of our online creation.
I asked all of the main men in the ÜR massive to educate the masses with their picks of the year gone by - some will thrill you, some will upset you. That's what makes all this stuff worthwhile though, eh? Challenging the norm, questioning authority, fighting the forces of musical mediocrity.......
Don't agree with the choices of these badass literary giants? Then head on over to the Über Röck Söldiers Forum and tell them where they went wrong......

ALBUMS OF THE YEAR
Some of the most influential figures in my rock 'n' roll life - New York Dolls, Ace Frehley, Kiss - released new albums in '09 and didn't even get a sniff of my top ten - that's how good a year it has been for music. A year, incidentally, when ginger frontmen dominated the upper reaches of my favourite albums list. I convinced myself that the album that took me by surprise was always gonna win my 'Album Of The Year' vote, purely because its main rival was by a band who we always expect to make the best record of any calender year. Then I just decided to give top spot to the album that made me smile the most in 2009.....
1.) The Wildhearts - 'Chutzpah'
Kory Clarke - Cardiff Arms, Hirwaun; One of those 'once in a lifetime' moments that will always niggle away at my funny bone for many reasons. Quite possibly the night that Über Röck was conceived...
Cancer Bats - Barfly, Cardiff; Another important piece of ÜR history. Apart from being right at the front watching one of the best bands on the planet, this was the night that me and Johnny told Darrel Sutton of our dream website plan and asked him to become involved. The name we decided on for the site that night was, trivia fans, 'Metal Kuntz' - can't understand how that one didn't stick!!!
Warrior Soul - Fleece, Bristol; Kory Clarke exorcising some demons for me in an awesome performance.
The Chelsea Smiles - O2 Academy, Birmingham; There to interview Todd Youth as the Smiles supported Wednesday 13 on his UK tour, me and Johnny were given the über-nerd treatment....and loved it! Awesome.
Misfits - TJ's, Newport; Read that again slowly - seminal act, legendary venue.....what was not to love?
(Please note - I wrote this before I saw The Wildhearts with The Loyalties and Antiproduct on December 21st in Wolverhampton. This would easily be one of my top gigs but I'll just tag it on here as a little extra!!)
FILM OF THE YEAR
Made in 2008 but given its UK release in '09, 'Let The Right One In' was a stunning example of how to make a vampire movie. Fans of that 'Twilight' shit take note.....
Wow, where do I start? That black box in the corner of my room became my best friend with its shiny HD images. Even though the USTV execs (suckers of Satan's cock) did their best to kill the best shows on TV - R.I.P. 'My Name Is Earl' and 'Reaper' - there was a plethora of awesomeness out there in TV-land; 'Eastbound And Down', 'Flashforward', 'True Blood', 'The Thick Of It', 'Flight Of The Conchords', 'Being Human', 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' were among the greatest, but my vote goes to the bad boy that really tickled my geek bone, 'Fringe'
'The Strain' by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan; more vampires, more chance to show those 'Twilight' tweens that blood sucking doesn't have to be so damn cliched.....
Sunday morning. Raining. Heavily. Two idiots are out in some desolate place taking photographs. They partake in rock 'n' roll chatter regarding the "good old days" with a story about Tygers Of Pan Tang proving most chucklesome. One idiot tells the other that he should write these things down for a new website that he is planning. The other idiot asks "Does your missus know where to put commas and full stops and all that?" and a legend was born - SALUTE THE ZOOT!!!!!!!!
Blackie Lawless take a bow. Or at least mime doing it. Hypocritical Christian bullshit as an excuse for not playing 'Animal (Fuck Like A Beast)'; gigs cancelled at the last minute for "technical difficulties" that are basically egotistical hissy fits; staff at venues not allowed to look at him; full-on miming of songs that is ripping off every W.A.S.P. fan that buys a ticket to see this fake shit. How Christian are those lies, Blackie? How Christian are your pathetic antics on every tour? Further proof that Christianity is a fucking joke told by cunts.
Fell On Black Days and Lifer have the songs and attitude to crush skulls in 2010 - put these fuckers on a UK tour and cities will be levelled. Revoker spent the majority of 2009 with a bad band name but, with that sorted and an album awaiting release, watch these boys explode. The Defiled are special too; sound great and look awesome - expect bigger things. The Glitterati have experienced a rebirth of sorts and I expect their new album to be troubling our Best Album choices this time next year. Cars On Fire have a sniff of greatness. Finally, The Royal Highness - Über Röck has high hopes for the former members of The Chelsea Smiles.........
1.) The 69 Eyes - 'Back In Blood' ; Surprise of the year for me - huge stadium goth glam that will be everywhere in 2010. My album of the year by a long shot.
The Bronx / Fucked Up - Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff ; Just plain fucking mental night and worth it for Sutton's rant about Rolo Tomassi to the students around him.
Gary Numan - Cardiff Millennium Music Hall ; I should have been watching Slayer that night, and never expected this to be quite so awesome.
Mott The Hoople - Monmouth Blake Theatre ; We were in a hall with about 500 others watching legends basically rehearse their comeback shows. Doesn't get much better than this.
Killing Joke, Cancer Bats and Metallica at Sonisphere ; A great concept for a festival, still not sure about the venue though - let's see what 2010 brings.
AC/DC - Birmingham NEC ; Stadium rock n roll perfection delivered with ruthless efficiency by some old blokes...Fucking great stuff.....my neck ached for days after this.
'In The Loop' - Just for Jamie's "Humpty Numpty" rant.
'The Inbetweeners' or 'The Thick Of It' - really can't seperate these for piss yourself laughing comedy.
'Last Shop Standing' - Graham Jones ; a fascinating read into the death of UK record shops. A very funny and compelling read that any music fan should own even if you didn't work in an Our Price...like wot I did.
Todd Youth / Kory Clarke / Janne Jarvis /Toby and Joolz from Gun and The Glitterati...How can I separate them...each one was a legend.
ÜBER RÖCK DISOWNED VILLAIN OF 2009
Not going here - all I want is friends in 2010.
BANDS TO WATCH IN 2010
Bonafide and Hate Gallery initially spring to mind, both are hardworking bands writing some of the best music out there right now, and both embody what Über Röck is all about. In the UK I'd say Outcry Collective, Beholder, The Black Spiders, Scutty Neighbours and the loads of great bands coming out of South Wales like Fell on Black Days, Lifer and Spiridon etc.
DAVE PRINCE
1.) Weezer - 'Raditude' ; one of the best bands in this world return!
GIGS OF THE YEAR
Butch Walker - 11/11/09 The Black Mollys - Rhondda Hotel, Porth 22/05/09 Bowling For Soup - Birmingham O2 Academy 22/10/09 Fall Out Boy / Hey Monday / Kids In Glass Houses - Cardiff International Arena 07/03/09 Counting Crows - Cardiff International Arena - 16/05/09
Not a great year for films but I loved 'Zombieland', so there you are......
'FLASHFORWARD' or 'DOCTOR WHO'
Either 'I Am What I Am' by John Barrowman or 'Eating The Dinosaur' by Chuck Klosterman.

Here we go then, in stream of conciousness order;
Pretty Whores - 'Teens Of USA' GIGS OF THE YEAR
FILM OF THE YEAR
Krokus
The Wildhearts came out with their best sounding album yet which was like a breath of fresh air - I've been waiting an age for a Wildhearts album like this and they've finally delivered. The Parlor Mob were totally new to me but I was really taken with them. Something about their straight un-funky riffing reminds me of the NWOBHM but they still manage to sound fresh and have a brilliant lead vocalist. Cheap Trick's album was by no means the best that they've ever recorded but, even below par, they still blow away the competition. John Sloman's 'Reclamation' sees him treading his own unique path with a set of lyrically personal acoustic songs which places him somewhere between Led Zeppelin and David Sylvian in his use of esoteric tones and unusual arrangements.
Elbow - Newport, Leisure Centre - 12th March 2009
Forget top five gigs. I'm going straight to the main event. I like surprises and this gig was a massive one. Elbow are out on their own, treading their own path and, on the face of it, they shouldn't exist. They're not exciting, flamboyant or outspoken. And I love them for it. Live they are astounding. They're brilliantly rehearsed. The music is dynamic - at once dreamlike but just as likely to stab you in the ear with a shard of glass should you dare to feel so comfortable as to actually drift off to sleep.
'Telstar' - Riveting biopic about 1960s record producer Joe Meek. This is the directorial début of Nick Moran who you may remember from Guy Ritchie's 'Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels'. There's a similarity here with John Cameron Mitchell's 'Hedwig And The Angry Inch' as both films were made after stage productions. Con O'Neill played the energetic and troubled Joe Meek on the stage and reprises the role here and it shows. He's totally comfortable in the role and I was suitably impressed by this hitherto unknown actor. The film is pacey, funny, dramatic and tragic. Watch closely and you may even spot a young Ritchie Blackmore.
TV SHOW OF THE YEAR
'Breaking Bad' - Season 2. Drama about Walter White - a high school chemistry teacher who has been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. Walter teams up with one of his ex-students in order to produce crystal meth in order to pay for his medical expenses and also to provide for his family when he's gone. Bryan Cranston - the dad from 'Malcolm In The Middle' - is superb in this breakout role which showcases his versatility. Not that this is an entirely sober dramatic role. We still get to see him running around in his underpants - something that you'd expect, nay demand, to see him doing in 'Malcolm In The Middle'.
BOOK OF THE YEAR
'Mixing Audio: Concepts, Practices And Tools' by Roey Izhaki - Well, it may technically be a 2007 book but I'm only just reading it now and it's highly recommended reading if you're a musician or a budding sound engineer. This book really is essential reading and is something of an audio bible - a must have. What makes this book really special is the accompanying DVD full of audio samples which are referenced in the book and make up the listening examples to the concepts contained in the book. If your idea of reading over 60 pages just on compressors is your idea of heaven then this is the book for you. http://www.mixingaudio.com
ÜBER RÖCK APPROVED PERSONALITY OF 2009
Steven Tyler - Whilst not being an über Aerosmith fan I was shocked when I heard the rumours that Tyler had left the band. "This is impossible" I thought. It made about as much sense as Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer dressing up as Ace and Peter. And, whilst I rate modesty more highly than arrogance I couldn't help but approve of Tyler's glorious quote: "Joe Perry, you are a man of many colours. But I, motherfucker, am the rainbow!"
ÜBER RÖCK DISOWNED VILLAIN OF 2009
Chris Cornell. Scream. Need I say more?
BANDS TO WATCH IN 2010
Stone Temple Pilots. In the early 90s STP were much like any other grunge band of the era and, as such, they could've sank without a trace. Luckily they started experimenting and made every new album something to look forward to. Always more innovative than Velvet Revolver's run of the mill metal STP's return is eagerly awaiting and an album should be with us by Spring. Let's hope that Velvet Revolver hasn't eaten Weiland's soul and he can get back to making some seriously interesting music.

GIGS OF THE YEAR
Wolfsbane - Bristol Academy (by a westcountry mile, fantastic fucking bastards)
Metallica - NEC
Tyla - Plymouth Hippo (only 20ish people showed up, no queue for the bar and Stella on offer 3 for 2, I was well and truly "zooted". He asked for requests and played '...Heights Of Disgrace' for me while I drunkenly banged my bottles on the stage out of time and forgot half the words. He shook my hand and laughed at me. The guy is beyond legendary status. I was last seen singing 'Billy Two Rivers' down the toilet until nearly 4 in the morning. Never again, hic.
Alice Cooper - Plymouth Pavilions
AC/DC - Wembley Stadium
Best movie - hmm, can't remember eveything I went to see so I suppose you could say I saw a lot of forgettable rubbish. The only TWO I remember really enjoying were 'Star Trek and 'District 9'. 'District 9' was frigging amazing even though I thought the first ten or twenty minutes were utter shit it and was preparing to walk out, stuck with it though and it blew me away. Absolutley brilliant. BUT... the end credits should have rolled up to the sound of Anti Nowhere League's 'Johannesburg'. They didn't, so five points deducted giving the award to 'Star Trek' by default.
The Rocky Horror Show ;-)
BOOK OF THE YEAR
ÜBER RÖCK APPROVED PERSONALITY OF 2009
Annie Lobert for having a "ministry" called Hookers For Jesus and making an honest man of Stryper guitarist Oz 'Knoxy' Foxy. I know some people like to have a guiding light but a red one? Jesus! oops sorry. You can't make this shit up.
DANNY FUCKING BOWES FOR DEPRIVING THE WORLDWIDE ROCK LOVING PUBLIC OF HIS DULCET TONES AND STUNNING LIVE PERFORMANCES WITH SAID VOICE. BASTARD !!! Danny we love you, come back to us, we don't ask for much, just another 20 years, pleeease!!!
BANDS TO WATCH IN 2010
How the fuck would I know, that's why I read Über Röck! But I recently downloaded some free tracks by a punk band from Norway called Goldcrush. Ok, they apparently formed way back in 2000 but I hadn't heard of them before and I'd like to think that after nearly 10 years of grinding away the world will suddenly fall in love with them because their stuff, put simply, is fucking great.

DOM DALEY
ALBUMS OF THE YEAR
In no particular order......
The Wildhearts - 'Chutzpah' - Consistant and most excellent.
Sorry & The Sinatras - 'Highball Roller' - utter punk rock n roll with great tunes.
Hate Gallery - 'Dead Celebrities' - putting the bollocks back into rock, lovin it!
Panzer Princess - 'Oh No it's Panzer Princess' - some awesome tunes in the best Soho Roses, Hanoi Rocks kinda way and some of the best lines I've heard on a record for a long time, kudos to Panzer Princess.
Steve Conte & The Crazy Truth - 'Steve Conte & The Crazy Truth' - Stonkin' album, the crazy truth is you should own this rock n roll betch, It's a cracker.
Tyla & The Dogs - 'Bloody Hellfire' - coz I love his work L-U-V and has some of the best songs he's written for many a year.
Bullets & Octane - 'Laughing In The Face Of Failure' - two for the price of one and some of their best work; an absolute cracker, fair play.
Dirty Strangers - 'West 12 To Wittering' - love it, pwopper rock n roll and one of the best parties you can have in the house on your own with some booze and a loud stereo \m/
Rancid - 'Let The Dominoes Fall' - package of the year no doubt about it and great tunes as well but where were the tour dates?
The Chelsea Smiles - 'The Chelsea Smiles' - Another of those much anticipated releses that I just knew wouldn't let me down and it didn't - proper low slung rock n roll with killer tunes.
HRH 3 - or more specifically New York Dolls, The Glitterati, Tigertailz, The Quireboys, Spit Like This - has to be in there because I got to see 5 great acts doing their thing in less than 24 hours.
Green Day/ Prima Donna - LG Birmingham ; Green Day are still good value live even with the teletubbies 'ay oh' bits and Prima Donna are the next big thing! Now lets hope they deliver that UK tour and a new album in 2010.
Bullets & Octane - Swansea - one of the best frontmen who can sing, perform and write. Gene has it all shame they only got an hour.
Mott The Hoople - Monmouth - an absolute pleasure to be so close to such legends, goosebump performance of the year possibly.
Sorry & The Sinatras - Swansea - a bit like Bullets; an hour or so of rock out with Scott and the boys who took no prisoners and as Michael Monroe would say "Rock like fuck!"
FILM OF THE YEAR
'The Hangover' or 'The Hunger'
TV SHOW OF THE YEAR
'Mock The Week' and 'Bear Grills' coz he's a coont
'Belching Out The Devil' by Mark Thomas and 'I Doll - Life And Death In The New York Dolls' by Arthur 'Killer' Kane
So many great personalities in music at the moment, to pick just one is a toughie but I think it would have to go to Über's own Zoot for his finely executed use of the Queen's language when dishing up his memoirs; absolutely priceless so I salute the Zoot \m/
ÜBER RÖCK DISOWNED VILLAIN OF 2009
This one's easy and has to go to hard rock's über diva Blackie Lawless. For cancelling a show on the night for what is being rumoured to be pathetic reasons to lip syncing and refusing to play his best song at HRH and over running and generally being a chump. Any other Villains will be kept private as revenge is a dish best served cold and they will keep ;-) also the car wheel clamper in Bristol after The Quireboys - at least Dick Turpin wore a mask - evil nasty man!
Again 2009 was such a great year in music and with a right glut of great bands currently active this list could go on as long as a prog rock solo section so I'll keep it brief; Todd Youth's The Royal Highness, Demolition 23 or whatever Mike Monroe is going to call it - I'm excited. Hate Gallery, Mongrel, Spit Like This, Prima Donna, Billy Hopeless and I'd like nothing more than a UK tour by The Dictators and The Dwarves pleas....and finally I'd like a band or two to pop up and rub shoulders with the big boys in 2010 and rock me socks off. Rock 'n' roll on 2010. Also, on a sad note, I salute fallen bands such as Soda Pop Kids, Tattooed Millionaires and The Black Halos who all fell in 2009 - hopefully we'll see them all back in other projects in 2010; rock on bruvas and sisters. 2009 has really been a blast - double horns up \m/ \m/ and mucho big amps to 11 kudos to Gaz and J H-Bomb for being top rockers and such good fun and keeping it real in 2009 - here's to a massive 2010 and getting ÜR to the top of the Rock N Roll tree \m/ Respect \m/
FRASER MUNRO
KISS - 'Sonic Boom' ; It was a long time coming but worth the wait.
GIGS OF THE YEAR
This year has been brilliant for the gig-goers amongst us. In no particular order, here's 10 highlights off the top of my head.
Wrathchild - The Asylum Bar, Birmingham; Great gig from Rocky and some other blokes. Bugger all people there but well worth the trip.
Anthrax - ULU, London ; Dan Nelson offered a real way forward for Anthrax which they've now blown. Time to give up now I think chaps.
Hardrock Hell III - Pontins Prestatyn; From the film set of 'Holiday On The Buses', Tigertailz, New York Dolls, Ratt & WASP led the way for a kick ass weekend.
Supersuckers & Nashville Pussy - Thekla, Bristol ; 'Nuff said, Uber!
The Damned & The Alarm - Sin City, Swansea ; Two great bands, one great night out.
Billy Bragg - Miners Institute, Blackwood ; Billy's like Marmite, you love him or hate him but he's still one of Britain's greatest song writers.
Misfits - TJ's Newport ; The Misfits have been flogging this set list for a long time and need to move on with an album or a proper singer (c'mon Graves). A great gig none the less.
CJ Ramone - Sin City, Swansea ; Absolutely empty gig but fantastic to hear a Ramone singing Ramones songs.
Alice Cooper - Oasis Centre, Swindon ; So good they killed him three times during a set that really dug deep into an awesome back catalogue.
'Anvil - The Story Of Anvil' - You really feel for the band as they carelessly lumber along ever looking for the big break that will never come.
TV SHOW OF THE YEAR
Though I must confess to enjoying the American drivel dramas like 'NCIS' and 'FlashForward', I'd have to go for 'Modern Family'. Manny is king. That said, I thought Channel 4's 'Execution of Gary Glitter' was excellent.
All I've read this year are stats books for work. No recommendations here then.
ÜBER RÖCK APPROVED PERSONALITY OF 2009
Captain Sensible, this year and every year. A true man of the people.
ÜBER RÖCK DISOWNED VILLAIN OF 2009
Bono, this year and every year. A true cunt.
BANDS TO WATCH IN 2010
I'm failing on this one. I've been shit this year when it comes to new bands. New year's resolution number one ............
JASON BAKER
10.) 'World Painted Blood' by Slayer.
Scarlet Sins with Doll & Invermier @ Lee's Palace, August 22nd 2009.
CJ Sleez - December 11th
It is derivative of Mario Bava's work but so what? I like Bava.
TV SHOW OF THE YEAR
BOOK OF THE YEAR 'Fall' by Colin McAdam. Coming of age classic should have won the Giller Prize but lost out due to the more understated quality of the social commentary found within its pages.
Chantal Kreviazuk - Performer, songwriter, humanitarian Chantal Kreviazuk has not slowed down in her various philanthropical activities one bit whilst raising three children with husband Raine Maida.
If more performers gave of themselves they might find not merely the good feeling that comes with it but a boost in their fortunes. It is called "Karma" and it is most powerful.
How Ozzy's Mrs managed to finagle the trademark out from under the other original Sabbath members is not surprising given their track record of getting stymied by management.
Moeraes Fate; Mutiny Within; Monday Rose; Doll; Three Star Seed
MATT BLAKOUT - TIGERTAILZ
Winger's cd was good though; despite what everyone said about it, I really couldn't see the return to melodic rock ala the first two cd's. I've actually started listening to the fourth cd they released two years ago that everyone has seemed to forgotten about as it probably sold poorly, but this is a really good cd, dark and full of great melody which is why I liked the 'Pull' cd so much, check it out. The other cd's I got were the Waysted album 'Save Your Prayers' - now I know this was released years ago but I never listened to it so I got it and it's great! Stryper's, 'Murder By Pride'; great harmonies over some fantastic riffs. Great to see Tim Gaines back on tour with them for their UK date in Jan. Hot Leg deserves a mention. With the Hawkster you know exactly what you're getting and they were doing it before Steel Panther! Chickenfoot, great cd and as you'd expect from such a great bunch of players. Some great songs and not overdone on the guitars.
Hard Rock Hell takes the top spot for me. Read my Über blog to fully get a flavour of why. Hanging out with close friends, playing a great gig and just generally being in a great environment of great music and friendly people. The fall out from it as well, getting asked to play the Ibiza Road Trip and getting such awesome feedback, from the forum and reviews from people I'd never met so that was truly fantastic.
Italy with Hardcore Superstar; playing twice with those guys in one year was fantastic, we highly respect them for what they do and how great they are at doing it! Check out the tailz.tv footage of the crowd, simply fantastic. Then the ULU in London, sold out show and great appreciative people. First trip to Ireland which couldn't have been better and they couldn't have looked after us better or been more appreciative of us coming over, but it was a great pleasure. Paris with Y&T just great and they really appreciated the gig and great to meet Steeve Estatof the winner of French Pop Idol and find out he's a massive Tailz fan!
The Rock Gone Wild festival possibly would have been the best even of 2009 and it was such a shame to disappoint so many people but hopefully we can make it over for next year. The three Mott The Hoople shows I attended at the Hammersmith Apollo and the Monmouth theatre were fantastic, not only from the perspective of meeting some fantastic new friends in the form of Verden Allen, Pete Watts and Ian Hampton, but just great to see they can still rock after all these years.
