 Jesus freak - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Jesus freak is a Christian passionate in his or her love for Jesus.
The phrase Jesus freak was originally a derogatory term applied to those involved in the Jesus movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
The term came into existence within the context of the freak scene of that era.

 The Drop-out and India
One of the odd growths of the sub-culture was the Jesus Freaks.
It is little wonder that the Freaks have turned to India for their greatest inspiration and established meeting-places in Goa and the Himalayan regions.
The greatest defect in the Freak Scene in India is that East and West always remained apart.

 Movie's Greatest Freak-Out Scenes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The freak-out scene acted just as much as climatic device for the cinema of this near-revolutionary time as did the chase scene for the silent comedies of the 1920's.
Like the chase, the freak-out scene is a cinematic tour-de-force, a foray into pure cinema in the midst of a drama that could just as well be acted out on a stage or read in a book.
The freak-out scene stands in its film to leave us dazed, to make us see things differently, to take us to the last few minutes and credits of the film as if with new eyes, the scales fallen down to the pop-sticky floor under our feet.

 Freak Emporium - Buy Rock Music, Psychedelic, Progressive, Blues, Soul, Folk, Cheap Prices
At long last one of the Crown Jewels of the UK 60's psychedelic scene is properly reissued on vinyl in it's original gatefold sleeve.
The Freak Emporium highly recommends Stuart Maconie's BBC Radio 6 show 'The Freak Zone', which is probably the most diverse show on British radio.
The Deep was the brainchild of Rusty Evans (later of The Third Bardo and Freak Scene) and the album is certainly one of the essential '60's psych artefacts.

 The Hope of an Alternative Society
Drugs had become accepted as an essential part of the new youth scene, and so already the young people, who had rejected the features of the old society, had accepted new ones which were harmful.
Yet in the freak scene where it was held as an ideal, it was actually very very rare.
The great defect of the whole Indian scene is that most if not all foreign visitors are entering into a sphere of higher values of which they have no experience.

 Dinosaur Jr - Freak Scene : single review
When musicOMH.com met the laid-back-to-the-point-of-prostration, former mainman of Dinosaur Jr, J Mascis earlier this year, he was very cagey about whether he could see the Jr reforming, although he did admit that his former sparring partner from the classic '80s line-up, Lou Barlow, had "chilled out" in the intervening years.
Not that we're complaining, particularly when it leads to 1988's Freak Scene being re-released for the 21st Century, and further, backed with one of Mascis' favourite tracks - the recently remastered Bulbs Of Passion.
If you don't know Freak Scene then there is a genuine CD-shaped hole in your life and it needs filling as soon as possible.

Then by gum you should have been at the Mod Club this past Friday night for what was billed as "Broken Mascis Scene", with J Mascis leading a core lineup of Broken Socialites on a romp through the Dino Jr catalog with undeniably awesome results.
I didn't know what to expect from this show - it could well have been a karaoke-like disaster, an unrehearsed mess or just plain uninspiring, but instead it turned out to be one of the best things I've seen in a long time.
Somewhat surprisingly, even with all that firepower, he wasn't nearly as loud as I'd heard the Dino Jr shows were, perhaps having to afford some sonic space to his bandmates necessitated backing down the volume a bit.

 The Brooklyn Rail - Off the Freak Folk Path
All I knew about Josephine Foster before hearing her latest album was that she was considered part of the neo-hippy “freak folk” scene, along with people like Devendra Banhart.
For me, that was reason enough to dismiss her out of hand—not because I don’t like the psychedelic folk of the sixties and seventies that supplies the freak folksters’ template, but, rather, because I like the original so much.
Despite her use of a put-on, vaguely British accent, this was the voice of a person who wasn’t play-acting, who was expressing real feelings and thoughts.

 Freakout Scenes: Solaris
Perhaps what goes on is similar to the power of the freakout scene in Willie Wonka, where we can perceive the Wonka boat to be moving at a great speed thru a freakout environment yet we do not see it rocking as we would expect it to with that speed.
The trip down the freeway in Solaris is a slow trip and a smooth one, but part of its freakout power lies in its insistence.
The scene goes on for several minutes with minor variations.

Goofs: Continuity: When the Duchess is taking bread and dried sausage to The Freak in the opening sequence the sliced bread has a gaping hole in it in the kitchen but is whole by the time it makes it to the dungeon.
The guy playing "the Freak" also delivers solid work in portraying the hideously deformed and tragically lonely monster as he childly limpers around the cold castle in search of someone.
But still it manages to let the emotions be dominant in most scenes including the scenes containing hard violence.

 Weird as folk
His strangely underrated solo albums "Trash Fish" and "Down By the Waterline" are mutant solo Americana of a bright and gleaming strain, the kind that comes from nearly 30 years of musical exploration.
After five years in Houston, she recently spent some time in Brooklyn, a move she openly says was an attempt to meet some folks in the avant-folk scene.
Which isn't a charge either side of the modern freak folk fence is going to level at this strange new scene anytime soon.

First, this is more of a rock record, especially early on; the frequent cymbal crashes and pounding drums leave little doubt.
AC can, and do, explode at any second, and their whirl of musical ideas -- mostly naturalistic, such as intricate vocalizing or tribal drumming -- can become dizzying, but gleefully so, not in a disorienting way.
A core strength of the group is its ability to sound invigorated and bracing when exploring territory often surveyed in the past.

 Torontoist: Freak Scene
Of all the 80s reunions littering the concert circuit these days, the one featuring the original Dinosaur Jr lineup has to rank as one of the unlikeliest.
Anyone who's read Michael Azerrad's tome on the 80s underground scene, Our Band Could Be Your Life, knows that the acrimony between J Mascis and Lou Barlow was legendary.
The fact that they were able to record three albums before fracturing (in a famously jerk-eriffic move, Mascis told Barlow the band was dissolving and then immediately re-formed it with drummer Murph.

The album starts with this in somewhat famous fashion on "Freak Scene," where there's a major chord strumming pattern that is mildly distorted.
J Mascis' lazy voice, which is not a bad thing, and noisy distorted guitar spiked with feedback, Lou Barlow's (who went on to form the wonderful band Sebadoh) catchy bass lines, and Murph's laid-back one second and crazily energetic the next drumming all form to make an amazing sound.
From the opening riff of "freak scene" you know this is an album not to miss.

“In current usage, the word freak is used to refer to a person with an unusual personality.
The older usage, referring to the physically deformed, such as would be seen in a sideshow, is nowadays generally considered offensive and inappropriate.
It is from this kind of embracing of the term that the so-called freak scene developed in the 1960s and 70s.”

 Music: Exegesis Freak (Nashville Scene . 06-26-00)
Even so, when discussing the socioeconomic basis of crime in "Hard Times," he literally mocks his former know-it-all pretension of once quoting biblical book-chapter-and-verse in a rhyme, rhetorically wondering, "Was it the prophecies / of Deuteronomy / that drove us to this poverty?" At the same time, his hardcore raps manage to stay lighthearted.
On "Bop Your Head," Priest summons forth vivid cartoon violence suggestive of the best work of the Ultramagnetic MCs, only he needs none of the Wu's tired kung-fu samples to set the scene.
On certain cuts, the production meshes with the libretto to match the brilliance of Priest's earlier work.

Although the band has scoffed at recording new material, the reunion and tour have coincided with the re-release of the first three Dinosaur Jr.
The trio's original efforts still sound startlingly fresh; punk not only played as pop (and vice versa) but songs, like the classic anti-poseur rant "Freak Scene," overloaded with hooks and volume and topped with Mascis' ever-present sneering whine.
Whether in their original incarnation or serving as J. Mascis' solo project, Dinosaur Jr.
