Although in the number one place formed with a hardcore mindset, in 1998, Switzerland's Cataract quickly adopted a harder, metallic sharpness to their songwriting, determination their unfeigned vocation as a metalcore act in the vein of Hatebreed or Heaven Shall Burn. After a few demos and compilation appearances, the fin (featuring singer Mosh, guitarists Greg and Simon Fuellemann, bassist Michi, and drummer Ricky) released their debut record album, Golem, through Ferret Records, in 2000. New frontman Fedi (aka Federico Carminitana) arrived in time for the next year's Martyr's Melodies EP and Cataract's first circuit of the U.S. (encouraging Poison the Well, Nora, and others), after which they returned to Switzerland and began recording their secondment full-length, The Great Days of Vengeance -- unleashed in 2003 by Germany's LifeForce Recordings.

Tennessean Editorial, Opinion Piece Discuss Proposals To Change Health Care System


The Tennessean on Thursday published an editorial and an opinion piece that addressed wellness care reform. Summaries appear below.


Tennessean: A "highly informative" study released to begin with this hebdomad by the Commonwealth Fund moves "beyond the usual emphasis situated on Americans who have no health insurance to call attention to problems experienced by people world Health Organization thought they were sufficiently covered," a Tennessean editorial states. According to the editorial, the study found that in 2007, two-thirds of working-age U.S. adults either lacked health policy, lacked equal coverage, had problems with payment of medical bills or forwent necessary aesculapian care because of price concerns. The study "argues convincingly for universal health insurance," the editorial states, adding, "Perhaps even critics are beginning to understand that this country inevitably and wants health fear reform." The editorial states, "The foundation's findings ar candid and enlightening," adding, "Our policymakers at the state and federal levels should take a right look at this info, and soon, because tens of millions of Americans are risking their health. ... That just should non be" (Tennessean, 8/21).


Barrett Rosen, Tennessean: "It is time to correct rules and health insurance policies that limit the handiness and affordability of coverage, especially for those with low remuneration or no employee health benefits," orthopedical surgeon Rosen, a Tennessee delegate to the American Medical Association and a former president of the Tennessee Medical Association, writes in a Tennessean ruling piece. Rosen discusses a recent proposal supported by AMA that would bring home the bacon vouchers or tax credits to help uninsured U.S. residents purchase health policy; seek to provide all residents with a choice of portable health plans; and provide health insurers financial incentives to cover high-risk residents and encourage residents to seek health insurance before they develop serious illnesses. According to Rosen, the proposal "reflects important values and traditions, such as assistance based on want, freedom of choice, market innovation and fairness." He concludes that the proposal, "combined with careful consideration of slipway to get the topper value from health tending spending, provide a prescription for achieving health policy coverage for everyone" (Rosen, Tennessean, 8/21).

Carl Barat: 'I'll recover in time to play Glastonbury'

Carl Barat has declared he will play this weekend's Glastonbury festival - despite being rushed to hospital last week (June 17).

The Dirty Pretty Things frontman was diagnosed with a acute pancreatitis after suffering from stomach pains. However he is now on the mend, and is confident he'll play this weekend's (June 27-29) festival.

"I am feeling much better, almost as good as I ever do. Its not as bad as I thought, it appears that the pancreatitis was probably caused by a combination of the medication I was talking (for congestion that I still get after my ear operation) and maybe the odd drink too many," Barat told NME.COM.

"I was discharged from hospital at the weekend, which was liberating," he added. "I have been told to take it easy this week and I shan't be over exerting myself, which may be difficult as the LP is out next week and there are rehearsals to be had. Anyways, as long as I behave I should be right as rain before you know it. We play in Switzerland on Saturday and then I will be doing an acoustic set at Glastonbury on Sunday (June 29) (for Jail Guitar Doors/Real Fits). Got to go, things to do � slowly�"

NME.COM will be bringing you full coverage from this year's Glastonbury � including news, pictures, blogs and video interviews -
live from Worthy Farm, so if you're not at the festival make sure you're here.

   Year: 2005   
Tracks: 11




Silicone Soul, composed of techno heads Graeme Reedie and Craig Morrison, carries the torch load-bearing club/dance music in Scotland. Hailing from Glasgow, Reedie and Morrison instantly clicked as kids, for the deuce were punk misfits wHO loved music. They formed a stripe, Dead City Radio, and played unnumerable gigs in and around their hometown. The fire of the deuce, however, flickered out after Morrison witnessed a Primal Scream show, and most at once they scrapped their obnoxious embrangle for an electronic lookout. The early '90s were fagged frolicking with techtronics, palling around with Slam's Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle patch gaining confidence as house music makers. Forming Depth Perception Records by 1996 and establishing Silicone Soul as a legit dissemble, Reedie and Morrison inked a deal with Soma in 1998 and released trine raved tracks, "Mounting Walls," "All Nite Long," and "Right on 4 Tha Darkness." The duet gained praise from some of the genre's forerunners (Laurent Garnier, Pete Tong, Andrew Weatherall) and played festival dates at Roskilde and T in the Park, odd perfectionists in their scope of intricate family music. Debut LP A Soul Thing followed in 2000.

Sienna Miller - Miller Uses Pyjamas To Remember Ledger


SIENNA MILLER has a special way of remembering her late pal HEATH LEDGER - she wears a pair of pyjamas the actor once gave to her.

The British beauty starred opposite Ledger in 2005's Casanova and the pair became close, socialising with each other after the film had wrapped.

And Ledger gave Miller the comfortable bedwear when she got soaked after falling in the rain after a night out with him and her mother in Venice.

She tells Britain's Telegraph magazine, "Heath and I had this amazing night out in Venice with my mother. It had been pouring with rain. Heath ran out in the middle of St. Mark's square and we were running around, and I slipped over.

"We all ran back to his (apartment) and he gave me these dry pyjamas to get home in."

And the star repaid the favour two years later, when the Brokeback Mountain star struggled to sleep while staying at her house.

She explains, "When he came over to my house last November, and he was having trouble sleeping, I gave them back, to help him sleep."

Ledger, who was found dead at his New York apartment in January (08), was said to have struggled with sleeping, which led him to overdose on the prescribed medication which killed him.

And Miller was so devastated after hearing about Ledger's death earlier this year (08), she asked the tragic star's father Kim to send the pyjamas to her so she would have a keepsake to remember him by.

She adds, "When he died, I was so sad that I didn't have these stupid pyjamas anymore, so his father found them to give to me."

Hugh Hefner won't marry girlfriend Holly

Hugh Hefner doesn't want to marry girlfriend Holly Madison.

The Playboy tycoon - who lives in a Los Angeles mansion with Holly and his two other girlfriends Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt - has no plans to tie the knot again after going through two divorces.

He said: "I love Holly very much and I think we're going to be together the rest of my life. But marriage isn't part of my puzzle. It's not a personal thing - I just haven't had much luck with marriages."

Holly, 28, is still keen on the idea of marriage, but accepts it is unlikely to happen.

She said: "We are no closer to getting married than we were years ago. It's like a car stalled at the side of the road."

Meanwhile, Hugh has revealed he has no intention of giving up work, despite being 82-years-old.

He said: "I have no plans to retire. It's the perfect combination of work and play that keeps you young. If I quit work it would be the beginning of the end for me."

Estelle retracts Adele, Duffy comments

Estelle has taken back comments she made about two of her contemporaries.

In a recent interview with The Guardian, the 'American Boy' singer criticised the music press for favouring Adele and Duffy over black soul singers.

"How the hell is there not a single black person in the press singing soul?" she was quoted as saying. "Adele ain't soul. She sounds like she heard some Aretha records once, and she's got a deeper voice - that don't mean she's soul."

However, Estelle said she now believes her words were twisted into an attack on white singers.

She explained: "They asked about the genre, and I spoke about the genre - and they took it into a race thing. The interesting thing for me is that they never mentioned that I thought Amy Winehouse is soul.

"I love Duffy, Adele - I don't have any ill feelings. Me and Adele are cool. I have no beefs," she added.

Judge: 50 Cent Can't Sell Property

A New York property at the center of a dispute between 50 Cent and his ex-girlfriend - which was burnt down last month - has been barred from being sold, a judge told the rapper on Tuesday (June 10).

50 Cent owns the $2.4 million Long Island home and rented to his ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins and their 10-year-old son.

Fire broke out at the property on May 30, with no cause determined as yet.

According to Tompkin's lawyer Paul Catsandonis, she was suing the rapper for half of his estate, based on an oral agreement the couple made during their relationship.

State Supreme Court Justice Carol Edmead ordered 50 Cent not to sell the property, and ordered that Tompkins pay the rapper the US$4,500 rent that was due for her final month in the house.

Brett Kimmel, the rapper's lawyer, stated that Tompkins had repeatedly ignored orders to pay rent that formed conditions of her living in the house.
