The audience didn’t know what to do with us. We were such dicks. We didn’t have any contemporaries. I don’t remember us connecting with any other NYC band our age. Any other “experimental rock band” like The Tower Recordings would be treated with absolute contempt.
Can confirm they were dicks.And I consider a few of them my friends. Some of them are very nice.But it can't be emphasized enough how cool these guys thought they were.

(i don't listen to them as much as i did ten years ago but i do still have all their records which is saying... something, considering the amount of shit i've gotten rid of in the last 10 years)

always preferred JOMF! but enough of a fan that i still have copies of letters from the earth, serth, intonomancy, sticks and stones and parallel easter knocking around
still, if i ever try to describe something i did by quoting a cormac mccarthy passage, please take me out back and shoot me
