Swedish cinema legend Ingmar Bergman, had he been alive to see it, Photo caption: THE ROYAL EXCHANGE (2017) dir. would have marked his Marc Dugain one hundredth birthday this past July. Instead, having died on his beloved island of Fårö in 2007, Jason Trefts is a true curator of the local underground and at the age of 89, he probably spent his centennial like any other day-mer in e’s Sum Hailing September is his chance to flex his already mighty booking g id r playing chess with death, wailing about God’s silence, falling in and out b r. te Cam al muscles to bring together the eclectic lineup known only as et Thea her of of love, and writing plays to pass the purgatory.

F-Droid is more than an app, it’s an entire app store featuring primarily free (as in freedom, not free beer) apps. For Android users exclusively, F-Droid isn’t just a marketplace to go side-by-side with Google Play Store, it’s full-featured enough to completely replace it. Anything you can think of: maps, games, calculators, weird niche internet configuration testing utilities: all there. F-Droid doesn’t need Google Play to work which makes it key if you want to ditch your reliance on Google (a good idea for a variety of reasons!) F-Droid allows you to update your apps and browse for new ones. Furthermore, F-Droid is curated to keep junky or suspicious apps off the market for better user protection and provides warnings when an app has questionable practices such as in-app purchases, excessive permissions, or other consumer-unfriendly items. There is a downside which is that it has a much smaller inventory than Google Play store and many of the apps you're used to may be missing (probably because they're malicious!), but F-Droid is certainly filled out enough to be more than usable. If you’re looking to ditch the Googs or you’re looking for a list of the best open-source apps, we recommend F-droid for all your app store needs. You can get it at https://f-droid.org — DANIEL LLOYD MILLER

Last year, I made the move from NYC back to my hometown of Boston. I was going to lots of shows to form new connections in the area. In early June, I attended the Carla Del Forno show and met Sam Potrykus at the front door. That night, I also picked up a copy of the Compass to browse through. Growing up, I remember feeling especially at home at local shows in the Boston area. After reading through the issue of the Compass, I did some googling and found myself signing up to volunteer with Boston Hassle. In my third month of volunteering with the Hassle crew, I can happily say I'm feeling once again a part of a thriving community of creatives who make amazing things happen in the area. The amount of trust this group puts in me is inspiring -- they gave me my own email address in the first month because I'd agreed to take on some organizational projects (so official)! If you're the kind of person who seeks out independent music and arts and wants to see them thrive in Boston, you should definitely volunteer. We're looking for folks to help run our shows, drop new issues of the Compass around town or post up some flyers. We are hosting a volunteer fair so you can learn about these opportunities and more on September 29, 12-5pm at the Dorchester Art Project. Come say hi and learn more about how you can get involved! —TIEL REARDON

When director Stanley Kubrick called up Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen, to ask them to be a part of his upcoming movie A.I., Al thought it was a joke and hung up:

“I thought it was a crank call. His secretary was calling and I was like, 'Yeah, right.' Click. And then he called back personally and then talked to me, and I was just freaked out. I mean, who wouldn't be freaked out? Here's this eccentric American God living in the countryside of England, and he's calling me up in Austin, Texas, and saying he wants me to do the music for his film and he wants me to be in his film and he's famous and all that. I didn't even believe it.” Unfortunately, Kubrick passed away a couple weeks later, leaving the project in the hands of Steven Spielberg. By the time Ministry went to the studio to film, the script had been heavily reworked to make the movie family friendly. The seedy sex scenes and dark story lines had been replaced by a cuddly teddy bear. Initially Steven and Al did not hit it off. Al, who compared meeting Spielberg to meeting the Queen, introduced himself with a joke saying he thought they were filming a porno named A.I. for Anal Intruder. Despite this clash of cultures, the two would become friends, with Steven asking for Al’s advice on scenes and even coming to him with his own acronyms for A.I., although Al describes these as lame. Apparently, when Scott Ian of Anthrax met Spielberg in Germany, he wasn’t interested in the conversation until Scott mentioned he knew Al, of whom Steven had kind words to say. Ministry had two songs appear in the movie and were cast as the unnamed band protesting robots at the “flesh fair”, because according to producers, they looked like the kind of band that would play for a bunch of humans that hated robots. And that’s the story of one of the strangest crossovers of heavy metal and Hollywood in history. Zach plays guitar in a band called Throbbing Chakra, and lives in Philly with his girlfriend Christina and dog Snowflake. Christina does the drawings.
