Xpost. Maybe my comparison with Metal Machine Music gave the impression that it was abrasive. It isn't - just poorly recorded. Which is why I changed my comparison to Skellington. The comparison was only because it's the product of an artist proving he can do whatever the hell he wants, with disregard for both the music industry and (most) fans expectations.

everything are you saying ppl don't like solo instrumental piano music? agreed on the recording quality not being that great but the rest of yr statements are madness.
― ogmor, Tuesday, 5 January 2010 00:27 (sixteen years ago)
Glenn Gould playing Bach, people like. Andrew WK making shit up as he goes along may be a bit of a harder sell. Is that really so challenging an opinion?
― everything, Tuesday, 5 January 2010 00:28 (sixteen years ago)
I got it, and I'm not really a fan, I don't have any other Andrew WK stuff, I just thought it looked awesome. Keith Jarrett has had a pretty good career, I'm not feeling you on the unpalatable nature of improv piano.

He doesn't have to sell it; it's there for free! I'm not sure if the paradigm of self-indulgent artistic statement applies to someone who says "yes" to just about everything.
― Philip Nunez, Tuesday, 5 January 2010 00:37 (sixteen years ago)
"Artistic statement" - yes. Never said it was self-indulgent.
Keith Jarrett? I'm still waiting for him to make a folk album on acoustic guitar, written and recorded in two days. That'll be KILLER.

I saw him live last year, kind of awesome when he invited several hundred people up onstage to dance with him, leaving about ten people in the audience.

― iiiijjjj, Wednesday, 7 April 2010 01:50 (sixteen years ago)
He looks like some kind of really bad Judy Garland impersonator in that cover and the name of the album (or collection of rarities, I guess) is called MOTHER of Mankind! Is AWK asserting the presence of the divine feminine within his own inner mythos?

In the early 1990's the Universal Group began a coordinated effort in film and especially pop music, in which they created their own robotic actors and performers, who's careers they could design and program from the start. Andrew WK (signed on in '97 or '98, officially launched in 2001) and Lady Gaga (signed on in '03 or '04, officially launched in 2008) are two artists with seemingly nothing in common, but in fact they are both constructed, hired figure-heads for a USA based effort of the occult society, most likely the Freemasons or the Illuminati.These group's aims are control and power and it uses music, movies and other pop culture media to influence and brain wash the youth population while they play out rituals designed to give them energy while they worship Lucifer. Andrew WK and Lady Gaga both proudly promote that they "come from" New York City, the city of Babylon and the home of the largest Illuminati conspiracy of the past 20 years: 9/11.

AWK was on Jarvis's show this week. I didn't find the music selection to be hugely inspiring and don't think Jarv is particularly good as a radio presenter but it's a pretty good interview with Andrew, if a little laid back. Starts at about 1:00.
― everything, Monday, 14 June 2010 23:37 (fifteen years ago)
Actually the music was pretty good but Jarvis chats too much so the whole thing seems low-key.

FFS, NYC isn't New Babylon, Hollywood is New Babylon -- jeez the second-rate conspiracy theorists these days don't even know their Great White Brotherhoods from their Golden Dawns. Not to mention that the home of Freemasonry in America is either Boston or Washington D.C. (take your pick), and the "Illuminati" (if they exist) are decentralized, they don't have an HQ or whatever and if they did it would probably be in Europe.
Also, clearly AWK isn't a robot or mind-slave or whatever, he is a clone of Jesus Christ (one of two, the other being Steeve Mike), and Dick Clark is Melchizedek. This is all just so obvious...
