Hi Brian -- don't know if you've posted here before, but I just wanted to let you know I've enjoyed your writing for the Reader. (And you gave a good review to a theatre production I was involved in, so yeah!) Also: Buffalo 66 is, too, funny.

Radiohead pays more attention to rhythm than most other rock bands I can think of today, the examples are countless and they definitely know their way around a groove (and for me, the odd-time stuff serves more of a purpose than ye olde prog-rock).

Buffalo 66 is hilarious.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 3 July 2003 20:21 (twenty years ago) link

thanks jaymc ... what show?

[it's so cute when people defend Buffalo 66!]

Brian: I work with Tangerine Arts Group, who did Phantasia & Wyrd's Sybaritic Shadow Show last November. At least I think you reviewed that, yes?

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 3 July 2003 20:49 (twenty years ago) link

more attention to rhythm does not =! old idm skin grafts

they don't have a rhythm guitarist to save their life

― jess (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 3 July 2003 21:40 (twenty years ago) link

jaymc: that was me all right.

― brian nemtusak (sanlazaro), Thursday, 3 July 2003 22:42 (twenty years ago) link

I've only skimmed the article, but I thought he was saying that they are more about melody and harmony than rhythm?

Oddly enough, Myxomatosis has elements in common with some African folkloric music in that it basically feels like a triple meter and a duple meter at the same time (two speeds of duple time really, since it has that 2:3 polyrhythm going through it).

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 3 July 2003 23:16 (twenty years ago) link

I've read that Radiohead worship Bitches Brew ...

― brian nemtusak (sanlazaro), Thursday, 3 July 2003 23:26 (twenty years ago) link

... for whatever that's worth.

― brian nemtusak (sanlazaro), Friday, 4 July 2003 00:19 (twenty years ago) link

I can see them appreciating it on a sound level. And a pretension level. I'd like them better if they worshipped In a Silent Way (ha) or better yet Jack Johnson, tho I consider the latter more of a McLaughlin record than a Miles record (which may be ignorant of the latter's arrangements).

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Friday, 4 July 2003 02:46 (twenty years ago) link

They do worship In a Silent Way.

Do you mean this one? (I always thought he was a piglet.)

― Lord Custos Epsilon (Lord Custos Epsilon), Saturday, 5 July 2003 02:48 (twenty years ago) link

Aaargh! It's an anti-Oolong conspiracy!

― Lord Custos Epsilon (Lord Custos Epsilon), Saturday, 5 July 2003 02:49 (twenty years ago) link

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Saturday, 5 July 2003 15:27 (twenty years ago) link

hey, that one worked.

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Saturday, 5 July 2003 15:27 (twenty years ago) link

Wonder when they'll get around to worshipping 'You're Under Arrest' - oh, Sting beat them to it!

― dave q, Saturday, 5 July 2003 15:31 (twenty years ago) link

will the next hood album receive this much attention?

― keith (keithmcl), Saturday, 5 July 2003 15:41 (twenty years ago) link

Oh...I thought you meant the Dragonball Z character.

― Lord Custos Epsilon (Lord Custos Epsilon), Sunday, 6 July 2003 02:47 (twenty years ago) link

nope -- just as japanese, but not as entertaining as a rabbit with a pancake on his head.

in fact, if you do a GIS, you can find a lovely pic of him with a roll of toilet paper on his head.

this leads me to believe that the japanese are the greatest people on the planet, except for that whole "gang-rape as a popular fixture of hentai anime/porn" thing.
