I admire noise and experimental artists making compositions for a single listening following an aesthetic idea directionally.

Have you ever wanted to stop time when The Knack, Van Halen, Metallica, REO Speedwagon, and The Replacements were all in the same genre?

We say amateur to mean, “inexperienced” but I usually mean it as a compliment to mean, “our minds find it difficult to accept music when we have preconceived notions it sound like something you could describe in a single stereotyped word.”

If “genre” in music means both that it’s possible to identify all of the elements of the genre in order to create new derivative work, and also an indication that the era of evolution for music like that is over, it’s interesting that pounding AmRep dude rock is a genre.

For the 36 people who have written to Japancakes tighten it up, and cc’d Blithe Field when they told Ry Cooder to smoke more DMT, this may be ample evidence of a creator.

Intentionality in pop music is underrated, and this record is a reminder of why a million years ago people who wanted to change the world thought starting a band was the way to do it.

Mark E Smith’s been dead a couple years, and anyone who ever actually listened to the Fall can probably be comfortably seated to nurse their juice boxes at the community table in an assisted living facility, so leading with off-key notes declaring war on everything that isn’t The Fall is perplexing in 2020.
