there are plenty of punk bands right now wtf are you talking about? columbus discount and tons of other labels like it exist for ppl like you and seem to be more prominent amongst college radio types anyway.
in other words, what jaxon said. stop bitching and post to termbo instead

answering machine are you named after manchester indie band answering machine or are you just tapping into the same part of the collective unconsciousness?

Really, Paperrad did all this infantile VHS nostalgia stuff way better and more interestingly years and years ago. I suppose they are partly to blame for some of this.

oh, it was a thing that a bunch of people were complaining about on another board - IHM? i think - a few years back. i was never a skaters fan.
― sarahel, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 20:42 (twelve years ago) link
i heard that too
i may add that I saw his show at Neon Marshmallow and it was quite possibly the most insulting thing I've ever seen a "performer" do on stage. Literally the one-finger poke n play drones and loops an 11 year old makes when he gets his first toy keyboard, but the man is a grown adult doing it in front of an audience

sweet ive been waiting for you to post about james ferraro

i have a really hard time imagining people listening to his music
― flopson, Thursday, 27 October 2011 02:21 (twelve years ago) link
i listen to his stuff and associated side projects all the time, why do you have a hard time imagining people listening to it? not sure what your point is, skaters are def on the most defensible end of the hypnagoogly spectrum

this is the album i heard, maybe it's an exception in his catalogue?
― flopson, Thursday, 27 October 2011 02:32 (twelve years ago) link
also an xp - ime almost all drone music isn't really about a dynamic performance so much as zoning the fuck out. have seen ferraro live a few times and it wasn't much different than most other bay area diy noise stuff i've seen, except maybe for the theatrics of caroliner et al
― it's time for the purpculator (psychgawsple), Thursday, 27 October 2011 02:36 (twelve years ago) link
i like that album but his 'best' or least best regarded album is probably 'last american hero' which is a lot more layered/composed imo i mean im not a huge fan and theres an extent to which defending this stuff is sorta too personal so w/e but i think hes done some p amazing stuff
whiney i kept looking around kind half-heartedly for u on saturday @ neon marshmellow but then felt it was weird to go and talk to you when i thought i saw you also i mostly convinced myself it wasn't you since i dont really know what you look like.
― INDIE BAND (Lamp), Thursday, 27 October 2011 02:41 (twelve years ago) link
oh yea he has shitty tracks for sure
i like when he does this type of thing

have monopoly child star searchers been mentioned itt yet? not ferraro, but skaters related and p great

monopoly child star searchers have so many amazing song/album titles that seem so perfectly designed to piss off you ppl

lol something tells me that 'far side virtual' album is totally up my alley, that track is v similar to ford and lopatin if you ignore the goofy sample

wow, some of the song titles on that thing... "PIXARnia and the future of norman rockwell" ? "fro yo and cellular bits" ?

maybe you are drawn to diy noise stuff that is for zoning the fuck out? there definitely is quite a bit of that, but there is a good amount of structured and/or more energetic and varied stuff going on in the bay area noise scene.
― sarahel, Thursday, 27 October 2011 02:59 (twelve years ago) link
it doesnt sound that much like f+l, really, its much softer and contemporary. its closest analogue is like instrumental passages that wouldve soundtracked 'multimedia' tech presentations half a decade or so ago, or mark mothersbaugh's compositions for the first boomblox soundtrack imo. my biggest problem w/ the album is that lacks any real rigour or larger critique/pov its just sorta oh, yeah, this is disposable music ok
― INDIE BAND (Lamp), Thursday, 27 October 2011 03:03 (twelve years ago) link
i mean, i am drawn to zoning out in home-listening experiences with drone music, sure. it's not something i seek out for live performances tho, and i saw a p wide x-section of approaches and energies that still translated to the audience having more or less the same reaction (obviously this could just be *my* reaction, i'm def not above projecting)
i'm listening to the album now and it still reminds me a lot of certain tracks on the f&l album, which has some 'soft & contemporary' moments imo. but if you wanna talk abt influences or older stuff i agree with your comparisons. i think it reminds me most of a patrick o'hearn album, the kind of thing that happens when new agey artists decide to play with early computers. thomas dolby did this kind of thing every once in a while, maybe even laurie anderson or david van tieghem or a lot of later pd pop-minimalist stuff. i love this kind of sound, so i guess i am predisposed to not finding it disposable, but i can def see how this album presents it that way

it is curiously moving at times, like the soaring instrumental break after virtual chef 1 says "1000 pounds" in the track above. maybe i'm just a sucker for his schtick.

1 down
READING RAINBOW = BLEEDING RAINBOWREASONS WE CHANGED OUR NAME FROM READING RAINBOW TO BLEEDING RAINBOW:
- We like the name Bleeding Rainbow better.
- It is trippy as shit.
- We didn't want to get a cease and desist letter from PBS.
- We were sick of being named after a children's t.v. show.
- We were sick of people fixating on it and making dumb jokes/comments about it. (even though it was our own damn fault.)
- Carrie Brownstein didn't like the name Reading Rainbow.

the moniker comes from an engraving on a statue in his old Glasgow digs, although he later discovered that it's also the name of a river confluence in New York State – "So it's quite cool, it means there's a Hudson Mohawk Kayaking Club," he reveals, proudly
