Art – emotional/intellectual
March 27, 2010
Is art an emotional experience or a rational one? Can art be both? Isn't it mysterious that we go to school and by that definition are 'taught' to think, no one sends us to school to feel, we just do. Can our thinking influence our feelings? It probably does, which is why it perhaps is imperative to question the very notion of schooled thought. Ken Robinson states dramatically that schooling, the way we know it in modernity, exists to strip mine thinking/doing, to perform industrial tasks, in other words, to conform, but simultaneously we are growing out of creativity rather than into it.
You would not want your brain to be operated upon by an unschooled surgeon, or for that matter the plane to be flown by an untrained pilot. But we might want to begin questioning the schooled artist, musician and dancer, writer, poet or philosopher.
The problem is that we all agreed and made a pact with Descartes, and assumed that our very existence is a function of thinking, homo sapiens and all that rubbish. 'I think therefore I am' is a neat but purulent thought. Rather a more enabling vision is 'I dont think therefore I am', and in that association is implicit going beyond thinking, to feeling. I think therefore I am, might distinguish us from the animal world, though dont have this conversation with a dog lover, but feeling therefore I am, might want to associate us with the sacred or divine.
The senses and intuition, that wonderfully indescribably quotient, that hovers and approximates between the senses, are nature's way of providing inputs for learning, growth and fulfilling ones true potential. Societal pressure and the politics of the state make 'schooling' not learning mandatory, make teaching not educating implicit, make medi-care not health; and security not safety an issue. (Ivan Illich – De-schooling of society)
A German curator today mentioned that an indian artist she interviewed in Delhi told her something she found meaningful, that while in art school in Scotland he had to learn to be Indian in his aesthetic, and when he returned to india, he had to unlearn that. Is it possible that while abroad he had to learn to be Indian but back in the environment he had simply to Be? Invariably the environment itself will dictate your nationality and your mythologies. Aren't we all aware of, with some irritation, the recent NRI with an accent. The environment is not necessarily a geo-political state, it could be a state of being and like Rupert Brooke, in the Patriot, let where ever he is buried be forever England.
In addition is the new rubric of the cultural theorist, the academic, the intellectual who attempts at 'making sense' out of chaos, drawing vectors across the art firmament to establish equations, inscribing, intention, influence, interpretation and meaning. First came the professionals then came the professors, that might seem quite in order till you discover that the professionals are influenced heavily by the professors, the conundrum continues.
There is a new buzz in art, its called Conceptual, which in other words means, I can think, I can write, I feel, I can read, I am literate, I have a great fucking idea, but I cant draw, sculpt, paint or dance or install or photograph to save my life, so my catalogue will be art, but what you pay Rs 10 million for I cant be bothered with. Put this rubbish canvass or shit on your wall or in your estate; close your eyes and have total recall of all the spell binding associated gyan that enticed you to shell out that sort of lucre, and intellectualize your pleasure. Its masturbation, and fittingly you have to shut your eyes when you cum.
Its a bit like nouvelle cuisine, its all hyped to be the new IT. So when you go to this swish (read subdued lighting) restobar, and fork out enormous sums of money for a little bit of twig and drizzle over a microscopic bit of salmon or mouse, and you come out of that place late at night totally hungry and too embarrassed to say so, you raid the fridge and devour yesterdays left overs. In the morning though you will boast of this fine dining place you visited. Its a status thing. (Thosrtein Veblen described it ascerbically well in The Theory of the Leisure Class)
Its the emperor's new clothes scenario where the marketing tails wag the dog. Now everything is art, you have simply to will it.
James Joyce in Portrait of the Artist as a young man, has some interesting things to say about art and its callings, he sees a messianic role for art.
If Art is the manifestation of Being, that gerund, that present continuous, conjugation of To Be, it sort of then summarises existence and identity. Who am I, where do I come from, and where am I going are as Transcendental as creation itself. That one sits at the computer in 38 degree heat with a deciduous pipal tree shimmering back lit in Mumbai and chatting simultaneously to 10 different people in different time zones and weather conditions makes one as Global as in the days of snail mail when one licked stamps and sent them off to 10 international pen pals. No different than when you can have streaming video pouring in at broadband speeds from different sources. Its only convenient now, not global at all.
How and who looks at Art, might best be examined at who and how we look at spirituality, science, literature, medicine, music, architecture, agriculture and language itself. It might be appropriate when entering someone's home to take off our shoes, for who knows we could be treading on the sacred.
It is about Being and Nothingness eventually.

Tears (Written January 4, 2014)
When we're sad and frustrated and have given up hope,
Why do tears fill up our eyes?
When we've come to the point when we can't even cope,
Won't anyone tell me, why do we cry?
I really do wonder about that. Why is it that we cry when we are sad? I know it is a little silly to say, but I really can't think of a better answer than that our bodies are trying to wash away the pain. Which sounds awfully corny, I know. Whatever. Leave me alone.
You know, have you ever had something really tragic happen in your life, but you couldn't seem to cry? But then, for some reason, you cry plenty when you are watching a movie or reading a book and something sad happens there? For me, I can't cry in front of other people. I just can't. Reflexes stop me. But there are some songs and some scenes in movies and books that I cry every time I come across them. Like Lean of Sheena by the Bouncing Souls. I don't even get why I cry when I see that music video, but I always do. Same with every time I listen to Grey Sky Morning by Vertical Horizon. Then there are things like, the last scene in A Very Potter Senior Year, when Harry is singing to his son at the train station, or that scene in Cross Game by Adachi when Koh realizes that Wakaba is dead. Or, silly me, looking at old yearbook pictures. Things that shouldn't be so sad, but for some reason are, you know? ( I wish I could link to all of those, but Youtube doesn't work on my computer, so I can't find the lings to any of the videos. Sorry. They should easy to find though, if you want to watch them.)

Recipe: Winter Garden Soup
Makes 8 servings
10 beet greens, stems removed
4 celery stalks, including leaves
6 large collard leaves
2-5 large radishes, with tops
6-8 small carrots, with tops
10-15 cherry tomatoes
¼ pound diced potatoes
½ cup dried peas (preferably saved from summer garden)
8 tablespoons butter
½ cup of chopped sage
3 large sprigs fresh oregano
1 large handful thyme, with stems
1 small piece ginger root
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon ground turmeric
4-8 cups vegetable stock, to taste
Instructions: Chop beet greens finely. Chop celery stalks, keep leaves intact. Remove collard stems but otherwise keep the leaves intact. Remove greens from radishes but keep leaves intact. Chop radish root finely. Chop carrots into bite-size pieces, but leave the tops intact.
Over medium heat in a large soup pot, add beet greens, celery, collard leaves, radishes and leaves, carrots and greens, cherry tomatoes, diced potatoes, dried peas, butter, sage, oregano, thyme, ginger, salt, pepper, curry powder and turmeric. Cover and cook. Keep at medium heat with lid on for 30 to 40 minutes. Do not open the lid except for a quick stir after the butter has melted and then put the lid back on right away.
After 30 to 40 minutes, remove collards, carrot tops, radish leaves, celery leaves, oregano sprigs and thyme sprigs (all of which are whole and not chopped) from the soup. You should find that there is quite a lot of broth that has been cooked out of the herbs and leafy vegetables.
Add the amount of vegetable stock that suits your taste and needs. Bring to a light boil and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Serve with toasted bread or cornbread.

text: Quarterback John Skelton practiced this week for the Cards, but on a very limited basis. Thursday Skelton got in some reps, however he is no where near being ready to get back onto the field to take playing time away from Kevin Kolb. Coach Ken Whisenhunt stated "We got to see if he's able to handle a practice before we can make any kind of decision like that. This is the first step in it. We'll see how it progresses." So for the time being Kolb is still in control of the quarterback position. This coming week he takes on his former team, the Eagles. Hopefully Kolb can capture some of the magic that he found when he played for Philly a few seasons ago. If he could recapture the old form that led to the Cards giving him that big contract then the Cardinals will continue to get better

I started doing lab duty again this week. People start coming in the labs from the third week onward, because the first two weeks are add-drop periods, so people can still decide that they don't want to take Psych 101 and not do the experiments, if they want to. But once the third week comes in, people are locked into their classes, and they basically have to start doing the experiments.
I conducted experiments on two people this past Tuesday. They seemed okay, definitely way better than the participants that we get when the semester is about to finish. Somehow, they're qualitatively better. I just cannot put a name to why it is the case.
I hate my Mondays and Wednesdays. These are the days in which I have a class I teach and a class I take. I get the feeling that I get nothing accomplished in those days. I come to school, teach, attend class, and that's it. I don't get anything done for the papers I am writing, the experiments that I am supposed to run, and so forth.
Yesterday, I was walking in the corridor between the library and the student union, and there was a guy walking towards me. It was bizarre, I swear he was staring at my crotch and I was being mentally undressed.
My adviser and I had a meeting yesterday and today. After that, I need to write several hundred sentences, for testing purposes. These will form the basis for my experiments. Then, I need to write an IRB protocol in order to conduct my experiments, so that I can assure the human research board that my research will not adversely damage my human participants. I've done that before so many times now, I think I can tell anyone why the Zimbardo experiment and the Milgram experiment back in the 60s was bad. Oh, and don't forget Tuskegee.
I can't take Katy Perry and her California Gurls song out of my head. At least it's not Justin Bieber, in that case, I'd make myself mentally vomit that song until it is completely obliterated.
I find it hard to get a drink out of Starbucks aside from a Doppio Espresso. Every time I go in there, they already know my order, so they don't even ask me. So the other day, when I saw new personnel, I ordered something different, a hot chocolate, for a change. After all, it was already the afternoon, and that was a little deviant of my habits. I just needed something to make me last the whole day.
Oh well, things are picking pace. The faculty kinda had the impression that I was a little slow in my research pace back in April, so I vowed to make that false. I vowed that I would speed up, fast enough so that my adviser can feel the breeze of me zooming by through his facial hair. Okay, that was a little melodramatic, but I am definitely piling so many pieces of motivation to move forward and graduate.
Enough of that. I need to pack.

News from Chilton Primary School
Cheerful Chilton Primary was a school full of smiles and fun for Red Nose Day 2019.
Pupils of all ages donated to wear something daft, colourful and cheerful for a non uniform day in support of the Comic Relief charity.
Some children had hair dyed red and rainbow colours, others wore bouncy head boppers, weird wigs, red noses, and silly spectacles – everywhere there were outfits and tops of all shapes and styles.
The accent was firmly on fun although there was a strong sense of caring for others who are in need.
Head of School Kate Law said:
"Red Nose Day is one of our favourite times of year at Chilton. Everyone joins in and there were some fabulous creative outfits on display in all our classrooms.
We also think it is important to celebrate the fantastic work that the charity does supporting children and adults from all walks of life.
Our pupils understand the work of Comic Relief and they want to be part of an important national fund raising event."
Chilton's cheerful charity champs from Reception class to Year 6 raised around £300 for Comic Relief.
Chilton Primary School is part of the Viking Academy Trust together with Upton Junior School, Broadstairs, and Ramsgate Arts Primary School.

Draw two lines across a map of Europe, from Inverness to Istanbul and from Málaga to Moscow: the place where they cross is Bohemia. The heart of Europe thus crudely determined turns out to be a region whose exact whereabouts and current political description may challenge not a few of you, and which is synonymous with a decorously dissolute lifestyle.
Yet there were times when Bohemia was a significant European power, enjoyed a thriving economy and marched in the vanguard of political, social and cultural developments. (In one of these expansionist moments, over three hundred years before A Winter's Tale, it acquired a coast.) But Fate seems to have decreed that each rise was soon to be followed by a fall. The most recent was a double fall – dismemberment and desecration by the Nazis was followed by a forty-year incarceration behind the Iron Curtain.
Paradoxically, Communist rule helped to preserve a wonderful architectural patrimony, the most abundant in Central Europe. Ideologically inspired contempt for and neglect of its heritage was constrained by lack of means to modernise, rebuild or demolish (thanks to a baleful economic model), a mixture that acted like a mildly corrosive aspic: there was deterioration but little destruction. But since the Velvet Revolution of 1989, a surge of restoration and rehabilitation has transformed both the architectural set pieces and the humbler buildings. The built environment and the art of Bohemia have never looked better.
There are towns with streets and squares with façades from every century from the fifteenth to the early twentieth; a remarkable variety of castles and country houses, most retaining fine furnishings and pictures; magnificent churches and abbeys, medieval and Baroque; distinctive works of art in excellent galleries. And the landscape is enchanting, mostly gently hilly, sometimes rugged, much of it wooded interspersed with fertile fields of pasture or arable, large tracts surprisingly empty. The River Vltava is a recurring feature, cutting a curvaceous course from south to north, and so are the many small lakes, most formed in the Middle Ages for the cultivation of fish.
Day 1
Fly at c. 9.45am from London Heathrow to Prague. Drive to Zámek Mělník before settling in at a country house hotel near Liblice in time for an introductory talk before dinner. The next three nights are spent here.
Day 2
Kutná Hora, Kačina. In the Middle Ages, the silver mines at Kutná Hora made the city wealthy. Now a small provincial town of great charm, it possesses a wonderful cathedral, perhaps the greatest Gothic building in Central Europe, the creation sequentially of Bohemia's two finest medieval architects. Set in a landscaped park, the country house at Kačina is a marvellous classical design of the early 19th century with a circular library, theatre, and a sequence of fine rooms. Overnight Liblice.
Day 3
Nelahozeves, Troja. Nelahozeves is a magnificent house of the mid-16th century, externally retaining the aspect of a fortress but internally embodying Italianate Renaissance elegance. Restituted to the Lobkowicz family, the furnishings and works of art are excellent. Dvořák's birthplace museum is in the village. Built as a riverside retreat, Villa Troja is a fine 17th-century Italianate mansion with painted hall and delightful formal French garden. Overnight Liblice.
Day 4
Kladruby, Zvíkov. Drive to South Bohemia via Kladruby. The Baroque-Gothic monastery church (1720s) is a masterpiece by Bohemia's most original architect, Giovanni Santini. Above the confluence of two gorges, Zvíkov has a unique two-storey, 13th-century arcaded courtyard. First of three nights in Hluboká nad Vltavou.
Day 5
Hluboká, Český Krumlov. Summer home of the Schwarzenbergs, dominant dynasty of South Bohemia, the Gothic Revival mansion of Hluboká is sumptuously furnished. The adjacent regional art collection has good medieval and 20th-century Czech works. Clustered around a bend in the upper reaches of the Vltava, Český Krumlov is a highly picturesque little town. The hilltop castle was largely rebuilt in the 16th and 18th centuries; among its treasures are a hall painted with masked revellers, an excellently preserved theatre and a formal garden.
Day 6
Jindřichův Hradec, Třeboň. Jindřichův Hradec is a pretty little town whose extensive aristocratic residence is notable for its Renaissance parts, in particular a beautiful rotunda. At the heart of a district of lakes formed in the Middle Ages to cultivate fish, Třeboň is another delightful little town, still partly walled.
Day 7
Kratochvíle, Plzeň. Secluded within a walled garden amid particularly lovely countryside, Kratochvíle is the finest Renaissance villa in the country. Continue to West Bohemia. The centre of the city of Plzeň adheres to its 13th-century grid plan; Gothic cathedral, the world's third largest synagogue (1880s) and varied street frontages. Overnight Mariánské Lázně.
Day 8
Mariánské Lázně (Marienbad). For most of the 19th century and into the 20th, Marienbad was one of Europe's most fashionable spas, with patronage from monarchs (Edward VII) to mavericks (Marx, Chopin, Wagner). White, yellow and ochre, from serene classicism to riotous 'Renaissance', the hotels and spas gather around a lovely landscaped park. Fly from Prague Airport, arriving Heathrow c. 6.15pm.
If combining this tour with Connoisseur's Prague in September 2020, transfer to Prague city centre and stay in Hotel Paris overnight.

It is during winter that a boiler is very useful. It produces the heat necessary to make a house livable in winter. Without heat, the household is at risk of hypothermia and other cold related illnesses. The boiler's importance in winter cannot be overstated. But sadly most boiler breakdowns occur during this season. There are many emergency calls to boiler servicing companies happening when the winter comes in. Fortunately, companies such as Technical Heating Services, provide boiler repairs and maintenance even during these times. They provide fast, emergency repairs on households that are suffering from boiler breakdowns. A winter boiler breakdown is a result of many things. Here are few of the most common causes of a boiler shut down.
The most common cause of a boiler breakdown is the sudden use of the machine after a long period of inactivity. The boiler usually remains unused at summer. When winter arrives, most homeowners abruptly start the machine with no proper warm up or preparation. The sudden start causes shock on the boiler's parts and components. The shock can potentially destroy small electronic components inside the machine. If an important electronic component fails to function, it affects other parts in the boiler which leads to a shut down. Before starting a boiler, make sure that the machine is well conditioned and maintained to avoid shocking its components. The cold weather can also freeze exterior pipes. If the exterior pipes are frozen, the water can't make its way into the boiler and there would be no heating or hot water from the taps. Thawing of pipes can be done by Gas Safe registered plumbers.
THS reminds the people in Northampton and nearby areas that regular maintenance and checking of the boiler even during summer is important to avoid boiler failure. For any boiler servicing needs, the company wishes to provide the best service that they have.

As we all know, we are awaiting the re-release of the classic Residents' recordings, Duck Stab and Eskimo. As I had mentioned in an earlier post, regarding Duck Stab and Eskimo, I had ranked them very high in my list of "very important recordings." For me, this list is created from those very rare recordings that put fissures in my brain, and caused me to listen to music from new angles altogether.

Your Milestone Recordings
As we all know, we are awaiting the re-release of the classic Residents' recordings, Duck Stab and Eskimo. As I had mentioned in an earlier post, regarding Duck Stab and Eskimo, I had ranked them very high in my list of "very important recordings." For me, this list is created from those very rare recordings that put fissures in my brain, and caused me to listen to music from new angles altogether.

Most of the albums that changed the way i think about music are my favourite albums.
In no particular order
1. 'Drukqs' by Aphex twin definately turned my world upside down, being some of the most beautifully crafted music in existence but also bringing a surprising amount of John Cage's theories to their logical conclusion.
2. I am always made to feel stupid about singing the praises of 'Disco Volante' by Mr. Bungle, but this has consitently appeared in my top 5 for some years now, and is a perfect example of an extremely dense and consistently exciting album.
3. Many people who read this blog may well dispair at me, but listening to 'Daydream Nation' by sonic youth for the first time had a huge effect on me as a guitar player.
4. Ever since I bought 'Electroretard' by the melvins I have obsessively collected everything I can by them, and they are the only band I hold in greater esteem than the Residents. Many people get the Melvins wrong as simply a metal band or a sludge band but I urge those people to hear, 'the bootlicker', 'Honky', 'colossus of destiny' and 'electroretard' because you will undoubtedly be surprised.
5. I was going to put a residents album here, but I guess thhat should be taken as a given, but when I first heard 'Dead hills' by wolf eyes I was blown away, sadly they have never bettered 'Dead hills' other than in 'Dredd', and have not been the same since they lost their best member Aaron Dilloway, although I still enjoy their music whole heartedly.

1) Kraftwerk: The man machine. Just from the cover art it blew my mind. For a guy living in Argentina in the late 70s, with a dictatorship that banned a lot of art and a rock movement frozen in 1976 progressive rock and hippie ideology, it was like a direct blow in the brain. Finally I found in a record the music I was listening in my mind.
2) The Residents: Meet the residents. Ditto. I was a Residents fan way before I listened anything from them (loved the idea of an anonymous band that barely performed live). When I bought this LP (in 1982) I found another piece of the music I was listening in my head.
3) Laurie Anderson:Home of the brave. Again. I discovered that you don't have to sing to be the vocalist of a band and that you can add music and visuals to poetry readings.
4) Franco Battiato: La voce del padrone. I discovered that not all Italian music sucked and that you can be avant garde and pop at the same time.
5) Serú Girán: La grasa de las capitales. My gateway to Argentinian rock in the 70s. Again, I discovered that not all the music sung in Spanish sucked and that there were people who were talking and thinking the same way I thought.

In no order of preference:
Metal Box (Second Edition -USA) - Public Image Ltd.
An insistent dub heavy disco bass, scattershot staccato drumming, knife-like leads, pentatonic electric guitar clusters, icy other worldly synthesizer keyboards and John Lydon's semi-operatic wails and barks. After failing to kill rock and roll with The Sex Pistols, Lydon and his co-conspirators turned dance music inside out and vented poetic lyrical bile in a manner damned beyond beautiful, 'twas, nay, is, glorious.
Trout Mask Replica - Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band
Rock and jazz cacophony, free verse blues mantras, whatever the truth behind the making of this unique aural document, 'tis magnum opus and artistic statement for the ages. 'Twas probably equalled by the last two releases Doc At The Radar Station and Ice Cream For Crow.
Electric Light Orchestra (No Answer - USA) - Electric Light Orchestra
An astounding album, greeted highly by most critics in its day as a revolutionary and avant garde rock album, covering the gamut from Beatles-like baroque rock, cinematic 17th Century pastiches, pretty ballads and forays into jazz and chamber style pop. It's main drawback may be being a tad unfocused, due to different visions pursued by the band's two composer-producers, Jeff Lynne and Roy Wood.
Wizzards Brew - Wizzard
Monsters of Rock (EMI compilation) - Wizzard
Both these albums demonstrate Wizzard's skill at being proficient at creating aural ear candy symphonies a la Phil Spector and adventurous, challenging, noisy progressive rock with a healthy nod to fusion Steely-Dan like R&B like jazz.
Metal Machine Music - Lou Reed
Sound textures that are beyond categorization, truly an album that will kill all your plants, clear up your sinuses and annoy pablum pop fed audiences to the point of death, and good riddance, I say, too.
Residents Radio Special 1977( later re-issued as Eat Exuding Oinks) - The Residents
The first time many people heard the rare early singles, extended plays and "King Kong". Set within the context of a History and explanation of The Residents and their music during a fake radio broadcast from some studio in Houston TX, the show opened many first timers ears to such gnarly tidbits as Santa Dog, Return To The Valley Of a Day In The Life, Walter Westinghouse and Flight Of The Bumble Roach.
Brave Combo - Polkatharsis
A new wave nuclear polka band? Were they a novelty act or for real. Carl Finch has proved for twenty nine years, Brave Combo is real good, and they got real good with this record.
My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts - Brian Eno/David Byrne
Remain In Light - Talking Heads
Two albums that sold tremendously poorly but was heard by enough people, it inspired both back to Africa movement in music and creative sampling (via tape loops) before the invention and widespread availability of commercial samplers. Danceable, mysterious, beautiful.
The Birthday Party - The Idle Race
Purveyors of Brit-pop freakbeat, The Idle Race created this album over a month of Sundays and the odd tea break, a collection of hummable Ray Davie stories of Brit eccentrics, careening from psychedelic freak rock to music hall to galumphing Beatlepop. Can an album be both twee and majestic?

- RalphAmerica said...
Some interesting choices here! I have some new titles to check out! Although I am embarrassed I didn't include Remain in Light and Bush of Ghosts, as I would also put those on my list. I think there might have been one year that I listened to Remain in Light every day. Learned all the guitar parts, vocal parts...i got pretty obsessed.

Albums that kicked my ass and still do:
Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
First found this LP when I was about 8 years old, my uncle was moving around and left some of his LPs at my grandparents' house. That was one of them. Also in the pile:
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
No comments necessary.
Ace Frehley - eponymous 1978 solo album
All tracks recorded as a trio (sometimes a duo), this album was and still is the most ass-kicking slab from the 1970s. Les Pauls through Marshalls, absolutely smokin'.
Kansas - Two For The Show
Double-live album of barnburning prog rock, you have no idea how heavy this is until after your jaw has already hit the floor.
The Move - Shazam &
Nazz - Nazz Nazz
After an extended period of ho-hum in the 80s, I needed to go back to the late 60s to find the birth of heavy. Recently reissued on CD, both of these albums are devastating.
Terrorizer - World Downfall
Ripping-fast, raw punk / hardcore / grind / speed times a million.
- April 28, 2008 at 1:59 PM
- lastangelman said...
I debated heavily which Move album I wanted to include on my list, but they're all so different and great in each of their own ways, they cancelled each other out. Not to mention the first two singles, Night of Fear/The Disturbance and I Can Hear The Grass Grow/Wave Your Flag(And Stop The Train).
Totally recommend Shazam and Looking On, now remastered and available to order here

in no order:
1. 'Stoner Witch' by Melvins...the first Melvins album I ever heard and it remains my favorite. The first "metal" album in which I saw glimmers of brilliance.
2. 'Absolutely Free' by Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention...This was the first of the earlier Zappa records to find my ears. I love the theatrical tone of the record. It served as an initiation for me into even more theatrical works of Harry Partch and Residents' albums like God In Three Persons.
3. 'Cacophony' by Rudimentary Peni...This is not the average punk album and that's not surprising since it's inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's stories and life. An amazing biographical work and probably the first thematic album to really capture my attention. I still listen to this on something like a weekly basis.
4. 'Black Monk Time' by The Monks...5 American GIs in 1965/1966 Germany with tonsure haircuts and nooses for ties using 4/4 beats with a 2/4 feel beaten out on the bass, drums and banjo with organ and heavily distorted and feedback laced guitar carrying the melody while a crooner-esque lead singer belts into falsetto range...this album is fucking amazing.
5. 'Residue Deux' by The Residents...My buddy ordered a Nick Cave album when we were in high school and they accidentally sent him a cassette of 'The King & Eye'. I was intrigued but not sold on The Residents until a few weeks later when he found a copy of 'Residue Deux'. Probably the only shipping error that has ever brought joy to my life and likely the last. It's certainly not my favorite Residents album but it opened my Eyes.
...it's really hard to only list 5 so I'm gonna throw out a few honorable mentions: 'Live At The It Club' by Thelonious Monk, 'Double Nickels On the Dime' by The Minutemen, 'Pork Soda' by Primus, 'Bee Thousand' by Guided By Voices, and "Hardcore Devo Vols. 1 & 2' by DEVO would probably round out my top ten. Throw in 'Feels' by Animal Collective and 'Sister' by Sonic Youth and I'd gladly pitch a tent on a desert island.

My top 5 in no order.
I will go ahead and say up front, when I read this list later there will be albums I wish would have included.
Les Claypool and the Holy Mackeral
My favorite LC album. If it weren't for my love of Les, I may have never heard the Residents.
Renaldo and The Loaf,
Songs For Swinging larva.
I got a vinyl of SFSL and the record store for 5bucks, with a letter from ralph "explaining" their music.
FYI ted the loaf,now "the darkening scale" is still making great music that is free here http://soundfromsilence.co.uk/
YES The Fragile
What can I say, i love the bass
Buckethead Inbred mountain
B-Head is another artist that continuously put out great music. He's catalog will be as big as the residents soon.
They Might Be Giants
This is the band that first truly warped my musically taste into what is is today.
Anyone unfamiliar with TMBG, check them out you will not be disappointed .

*...And Justice For All* by Metallica. This album turned my little world upside down because this was the first time that I had heard songs that completely disregarded conventional song structures. It was so awe-inspiring to suddenly hear songs that transcended everything that I had ever heard on the radio.
*Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven* by Godspeed You! Black Emperor. This was a very unique experience for me. No lyrics, and yet it managed to reveal so much about modern life. I never thought that the sound of a grocery store clerk making an announcement on the loudspeaker could be so meaningful.
*Animal Lover* by The Residents. This was one of my first Residents albums. Maybe I was in the right mood when I first hit play, but this album, above all of my other Residents albums, immediately drew me into another world. I was so completely captivated with each and every song that, when it ended, I felt like I was waking up from the strangest dream. An unforgettable experience.
*Kid A* by Radiohead. There are so many secrets to explore on this album that most people who have heard it have no clue how cryptic this album really is. The band had about thirty, 20-second videos for this album, a hidden booklet at the bottom of the jewelcase, an enigmatic comic strip on their website, etc. After unveiling layer after layer, I now feel that this is the best "political" album ever made.
*Bone Machine* by Tom Waits. This album had a much bigger impact on me than Rain Dogs. Not only did it have that primitive "junkyard" sound to it, but it had such fantastic lyrics as well. This album opened my eyes to a whole new genre.

1.) Animal Collective -- "Sung Tongs"
I was confused by it at first. Disoriented is maybe a better word. But one night, in the parking lot of a Safeway, my hands were really huge and suddenly it shifted from one thing into another. The way they manipulate the tape to make the sound of people laughing sound like a flock of birds...
2.) Brian Eno -- "Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)"
Many people swear by "Another Green World", but this album is so strange and sinister, it really does it for me. "The Fat Lady of Limbourg" is one of my favorite songs, ever.
3.) The Residents & Renaldo and the Loaf -- "Turtle in Lima"
Hence the tattoo. "The Shoe Salesman" is what got me hooked on the Residents, particularly the line about truth and fiction, love and friction. My life changed when I realized that He was singing the opening lines at DDA on Halloween.
4.) Snowglobe -- "Our Land Brains"
The music which accompanied my first psychedelic experience. I've listened to it three times a week since it came out, and it still shines as brightly in my mind as it did the first time.
5.) Pink Floyd -- "Dark Side of the Moon"
I was six years old, I was lying down in the way-back of my parents VW van, and I heard Brain Damage/Eclipse for the first time on fuzzy FM radio. The sound of that man laughing, "and if your head explodes", and I remember the orgasmic explosion of "Eclipse" better than my first ACTUAL orgasm. That was the moment my parents lost their good, Mormon boy.
Honorable mention, for landing at impressionable times in my life: Dead Man's Party (Oingo Boingo), Songs for Dustmites (Steve Burns), One Size Fits All (Frank Zappa & the Mothers of Invention), Fear of Music (Talking Heads).

My 5, in chronological order from when I discovered them:
1. "Introducing... The Beatles"- The Beatles
It was 1975. I was 10 years old. But I still vividly remember putting the needle on the record, hearing Paul countdown "1, 2, 3, 4!" into "I Saw Her Standing There." Thus began my love affair with the Beatles, and rock music in general.
2. "The Cars"- The Cars
My first real introduction to New Wave- just a great album that defined the summer of '78 for me and my friends.
3. "Big Lizard in my Backyard"- The Dead Milkmen
This was my first punk album, and combined with seeing the Milkmen play live, pulled me away from the MOR bloated junk that was FM radio in the late 80s.
4. "The Stone Roses"- The Stone Roses
I didn't like it when I first heard it, but it slowly grew on me. It's probably the most-listened to album in my collection. Once a year or so, I'll get into into a Roses mood, and listen to it over and over for days.
5. "Loveless"- My Bloody Valentine
I had never heard anything like it before, and I've never heard anything like it since. I'm still anxiously awaiting the follow-up album. It's only been 17 years- which will come out first, this or "Chinese Democracy"?

Five? Only five? I have heard thousands of albums and hundreds have influenced me. But going back to the 60s, when I started collecting albums, here's five, spanning the decades, that come to mind:
1. Ultimate Spinach - s/t. My first truly underground rock LP, purchased in 1968. While it's relevance to what I enjoy musically now doesn't relate well, it still holds a fond spot in my collection.
2. Velvet Underground - White Light/White Heat. Certainly pushed the envelope for me and I gained a better understanding of the application of repetition and dissonance in music to evoke a thought or emotion.
3. The Residents - Not Available. Of all the Residents albums, and I have them all, this is the peak for me - the ultimate mysterious album.
4. Devil Doll - Eliogabilus. It is hard to say whether this or Sacriligeum would be the one that hit me the hardest, since I got them both at the same time. But their blend of the occult with symphonic, prog rock, found sounds, and the theatrical is astounding.
5. Stone Breath - Songs of Moonlight and Rain. Tim Renner has been doing some great things in the experimental/wyrd fold genre, and other artists keep popping up that are equally interesting. Not since the first psychedelic era has new music influenced my listening and musical outlook. This is just one of many in this new genre - Others to search out would be English Heretic, Juniper Meadows, Xenis Emputae Travelling Band, Hush Arbors, The North Sea, Fursaxa...there are many, and most sell their music via cdr imprints. Very home grown operations and phenomenal sounds.

Five, eh? There are so many fine bands which have expanded my mind (musically and otherwise); They Might Be Giants, Devo, Foetus, Laibach, Bauhaus, Kraftwerk, Malice Mizer, Snakefinger, Renaldo & The Loaf, Aphex Twin, Jandek, Danielson Famile, Mr. Bungle, Tiny Tim, Tama (from Japan), Einstürzende Neubauten, Rasputina, The Legendary Pink Dots, Daniel Johnston, Ros Sereysothea... the list goes on and on...
Chronologically then, five which were not merely excellent, but rather turned my brain upside down in some fashion:
Barnes & Barnes - Voobaha
I discovered these guys in junior high... they're best known for writing the song "Fish Heads," but they are more, oh-so-much more than just a novelty band. B&B opened my mind to the possibility of rock music not taking itself seriously and sounding downright... WEIRD. Some songs are genuinely frightening. Their vocals are some of the strangest I've ever heard. The production is really creative. Their subsequent album "Spazchow" was much darker, more serious, but no less bizarre. I would suggest the CD "Kodovoner" as their finest work.
The Residents - Cube-E
My first Rez album, purchased during high school. When I listened with headphones the first time, my brain COULD NOT PROCESS what I was hearing for about 20 seconds. And it's not even that crazy in retrospect, but... I had never been exposed to such sounds before. I will never forget that moment...
Big Poo Generator - Please Kill Us
Discovered during college, this album was even more influential than the Zappa and Beefheart I was also being exposed to. BPG is well-composed synth/rock music with high-pitched vocals singing all about poo and dogs and retards and death. It disregards every unspoken rule of what is musically forbidden. And it's done so WELL.
Information Society - Don't Be Afraid
Post-college discovery. Yeah yeah, InSoc was famous for that song "What's On Your Mind (Pure Energy)", but this is a solo effort by vocalist Kurt Harland, and is an underrated work of staggering genius. I have never heard the overwhelming feelings of depression so succintly translated into musical terms. When I first put this on, back in 1997, it brought back all the feelings I had convinced myself were gone. It made me realize, "My God... moving out, getting a job and living with a girl has not changed my fundamental core. I am still depressed, and will always be depressed." Eleven years later this still holds true...
Devil Doll - Eliogabalus
Terry, high-five man! I am delighted to see another devotee of the Devil Doll sect. Mr. Doctor, composer and vocalist, is a genius. The music is like a tapestry... no, a LABYRINTH of sounds and textures, jumping from orchestral to heavy metal to street-corner performer to carnival of MADNESS... the vocals are expressive to the point of schizophrenic. This is the most exciting album I've discovered as an adult.

1. "Wrong Eyed Jesus" by Jim White. This album came to me by chance, and totally got under my skin.
2. "Sackcloth and Ash" 16 Horsepower. First time I heard them doing a live show on the radio, I was transfixed. I actually froze and stood there listening.
I'm only going to list two, mostly because most of the other music I listen to I was already in to, or was listening to similar stuff. These two albums both came out of left field and turned me on to alt-country. Previously I had no interest in any genre that had the word "country" in it. Now I do, and that ain't a bad thing.

Creeptastic --
Barnes & Barnes worked pretty extensively with Crispin Hellion Glover on his album "The Big Problem (Does Not Equal) The Solution; The Solution Equals Let it Be". You probably have heard it, but I recommend it strongly if you haven't.
And: how could I forget They Might Be Giants. Probably "Apollo 18" had the biggest impact on me, although its so hard to say, all of those first six albums or so are in my brain like splinters.

Influence on my musical taste has come from a great a deal of places. Almost all of these came from unexpected people at unexpected moments, but resonated until my next trip to the record store, and from there the rest of my life.
1. 'Santa Dog' EP by The Residents. This recording is the slime-like sluggish residue left over from my brother's shitty ex-girlfriend. It makes so much sense in the context of that crap relationship somehow, except its good instead of horrible... It stayed in my brain for like two years when I saw 'Third Reich N' Roll' at the record store and took it home. It was probably another year after that before I heard 'Santa Dog' again. I started buying all of The Residents work at that point.
2. 'Coffin for Head of State' by Fela Kuti. Introduced to me by a drum teacher I often fought with, this recoding was confusing for a few months. It sounded like dirty James Brown that went on forever and didn't change much. Over time I picked up on the subtle yet consistent qualities of his music. It became pure bliss, and that's what it remained. Then I learned of the story of his life. Wow! Music IS the weapon of the future.
3. Sun Ra's 'Singles Collection' is not an cohesive album, but these peices were never part of an album anyway. Conceived of as small-batch 45's, they span his career and many of the cuts make up much of my top 100 favorite songs list. This is not the spacey Sun Ra you are familiar with, but rather a diverse collaborator and member of many bands. Trust me. Hear this album.
4. 'Axis: Bold as Love' by Hendrix. Electric rock has never been more beautiful and strange. This is an album that plays in my head without my consent.
5. Its hard to pick a 5th record to seal the deal on this list. I don't think I will. Instead I'll recommend all of the traditional musics of Indonesia... And that's a big task to tackle. Maybe start with the Nonesuch Explorer Series collection called 'Music from the Morning of the World'. Its been fun seeing the influence of this music introduced into the Residents' catalogue over the years.
That's five, but then that leaves out the music of Burma... Oh well, these things only get harder with age. That just means there's more to enjoy off of the list.

Here are another 5 important records:
1. King Crimson: In The Court of the Crimson King;
2. The Bonzo Dog Band: Tadpoles;
3. Sound D'Afrique (Volumes One and Two);
4. Henry Cow: Legend;
5. Brian Eno: Before and After Science.
The Mothers of Invention's "We're Only In It For The Money" gets honorable mention, and only because someone else listed "Absolutely Free." I mus also concur with another blogger that the first time I listened to a Residents record I had a similar experience of being unable to mentally process it. In my case it was "Not Available" and I wasn't at all sure what to make of it. But I kept coming back to it, and ploayed it for all my friends, and the rest id history.

I wish it were available in a 1.5" OD option.Justin B on Mar 8, 2019I would like to have two foot rails. One at the height of the 90 degree bracket (7 inches) and another higher (bar mounted, because it alllows me to pick the height). But the first one has because of the length of the bracket at 7 inches from the face of the bar and the second one will be 8 inches from the face of the bar. Do you have any options where both could be 8 inches or 7 inches so they can be aligned?90 deg. Post Foot Rail Bracket - Matte Black - 2" ODBEST ANSWER: We actually have a few options for you to choose from. What you need is a floor mount bracket or post so that you can install it at the same distance from the bar as the bar mount bracket. There are three styles that could work for your set up: traditional floor mount bracket, saddle post or a rounded center post. In stock finish availability varies between styles, but if this is a large commercial project we have a great team of bar rail experts that can help you with everything you need. Please give us a call at 866.249.2337 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. Cheers!

Although many wrote Ruiz Jr off, the softly-spoken and unassuming heavyweight battered Nigerian-born British pugilist, Anthony Joshua in New York and stunned the world by stopping the seemingly untouchable 'AJ'.
The Olympic Gold medallist finally got his rematch signed for December 7 in Riyadh after Ruiz Jr finally signed the contract.
However, the new WBA 'Super', WBO and IBF world heavyweight champion has promised a repeat performance.
"I dethroned the king June 1st and made history becoming the first Mexican/American Heavyweight Champion of the world. I'm looking forward to ending his career in the desert."
TB Joshua delivers women from spirit of 'homosexuality'(Opens in a new browser tab)
There are plenty of dissenting voices surrounding the fight, given how convincingly Ruiz Jr beat Joshua in the first contest.
And heavyweight rival Tyson Fury has concurred with the champion, that Joshua is 'done' if he cannot reclaim his world titles.
He told iFL TV: "I don't think he's a better boxer than Ruiz, so the only thing that AJ can do is knock him out early.
"He's not a better boxer, he hasn't got better feet, he doesn't have faster hands and he doesn't throw better combinations. So he's coming off second best in every single category apart from athleticism and size.

House Bill (HB) 13-1248, as amended by Senate Bill (SB) 15-198, authorizes the Colorado Water Conservation Board (the "CWCB" or the "Board") to administer a pilot program to test the efficacy of fallowing-leasing as an alternative to permanent agricultural dry-up. The pilot program may consist of the selection of up to ten separate pilot projects, each lasting up to ten years in duration, to test the practice of fallowing irrigated agricultural land and leasing the associated water rights for temporary municipal use.

It's the last Last Week in Digital Media for the year. Thanks for reading, sharing, and notes of encouragement throughout the year.
- The IPG Media Lab has published an excellent retrospective of the year, reviewing progress in six (6) key areas from regulation, to voice search and AR. Something to read and reflect on over the holiday break and prior to CES.
- Verizon's acquisition of OATH: continues to struggle, with Verizon taking a US$4.5B write-down on the OATH: business (essentially all of the goodwill) with layoffs expected. There are also reports that OATH: mind wind down/close some Yahoo! and AOL brands.
- Google+ is shutting down earlier than planned, moving to April 2019 (up from August). The shutdown is in response to a security incident that saw the data of 52.5MM users leaked (including name, email, occupation).
- Facebook is testing search ads again (the last time was back in 2013). It's being tested in the US and Canada and only applies when making retail-related searches in the automotive and eCommerce categories. The best news, is the Facebook Search Ads are currently free – they just need to be set up in Ad Manager if you're account/client is eligible.
- Facebook released some details about Facebook Watch, claiming that there are 400MM people monthly and 75MM people daily who spend at least 1 minute on watch. Although Facebook then confirmed to Axios that those 60 seconds need not be continuous so there are some question marks over the actual quality and size of the audience (and demonstrates why MRC standards and accreditation matters).
- There are rumors doing the round that Facebook plans to sell pay TV video channels directly, that you would also watch on Facebook. Facebook is rumored to be talking to HBO, Starz, and Showtime.
- the IAB has released a report that the Open Measurement SDK (which supports in-app advertising measurement) has combined reach across 2B devices (globally). If you're serious about mobile app inventory quality, you should prioritize partners that are SDK certified, including in the US, Flipboard, Gameloft, GetDabbl, Google, InMobi, Intowow, Inmarket, Pandora, and Tapjoy.
- Nielsen published their Q2 Total Audience Measurement report. Some highlights include that free (broadcast) TV was up (now 13% of all US homes), virtual Multichannel Video Programming Distributors (vMVPDs) which includes Hulu, YouTube TV are up, and radio is holding strong at 93%. Total media consumption, across all devices, sits at 10 hours per day but that includes multiple devices, sharing the same hours.
PRIVACY, TRUST, and SAFETY
- Facebook reported a security incident where a bug in their developer API may have exposed the photos of 6.8MM users to developers without the appropriate permissions. Affected users will be notified via a "bug alert" on Facebook. CNN has reported that the Irish Data Protection Commission is investigating Facebook "as a result of multiple breaches the company had informed them about this year".
- 3rd Party Verification is now broadly available on YouTube to all advertisers. Both IAS and DoubleVerify are available. In related news, Google's latest transparency report revealed that it took down 50.2M videos in Q3 2018 and 1.7MM channels. The full report provides details of what type of content was removed, as well as who (automated vs reported).
- The Center for Democracy and Technology (CDT) has released a draft discussion document for US Privacy legislation. This includes a handy GDPR, California Privacy Protection Act, CDT Proposal comparison document (PDF). The FTC Chair Federal has stated that he is in favor of a National US Privacy regime and wants to avoid unintended consequences.
- There's a great thought-provoking read on information warfare, social media regulation, and security over on Ribbon Farm called "The Digital; Maginot Line". It should also be read in parallel with the transcript of a speech from Senator Mark Warner calling for an overhaul of the US Cyber Security Doctrine. Both of these documents have significance for the digital advertising and media industry.
I want to end the year on a note of optimism, hope, and fun. So the final important distraction of the week is from NASA and their New Horizon mission. You can send your name to the New Horizon spacecraft, for free, but you must register by December 21. Names will be sent on January 1, which makes for a fun way to start 2019.
Have a safe and happy holiday season and New Year.

Toby Young was sent to New York as the bright young thing of British journalism and returned as the dull middle-aged thing. Having left a PhD in Philosophy to pursue a career in journalism, Young founded and edited the bi-monthly Modern Revue for four years before leaping across the pond to work for Vanity Fair, where everything started to go rapidly downhill. After losing friends, alienating people and writing a bestselling book about it, Young is now working as the theatre critic for The Spectator and restaurant critic for ES magazine.
Tim Fountain's stage adaptation of his book was first performed at the Soho Theatre last year, with jack Davenport playing Young.

Actor Amy Schumer is as irreverent as ever — and her pregnancy is definitely comedic fodder. Schumer is a full six months out from her due date, but she recently quipped that apparently, inquiring minds must know: "Are you crowning yet?"
On Sunday, Schumer cracked up the crowd with this and other gems at "A Night With Amy Schumer" in New York. The event was a benefit for Liuba Grechen Shirley's congressional campaign, but it was also a chance for Schumer to open up about her first trimester. Schumer kicked off her set by rubbing her tummy and saying simply, "So, I'm pregnant." At one point, she chowed down on takeout mid-performance. #PregnancyGoals
More: Amy Schumer Announces Pregnancy in the Most Amy Schumer Way Possible
Schumer told the audience that it's been nonstop puking for her. She also said that zipping up jackets had become a challenge and that hormones were making her "incredibly mean" to her husband, chef Chris Fischer, who penned The Beetlebung Farm Cookbook. Nope, we don't know what a beetlebung is either, but we're glad Fischer is whipping up Schumer's weakness (penne alla vodka) at all hours for his pregnant wife.
"I married a chef because I'm a fucking genius," Schumer said.
Schumer's pregnancy announcement came on Tuesday (on friend and journalist Jessica Yellin's Instagram page). In fact, she announced right after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex (that's Harry and Meghan, BTW) made their royal baby announcement. On Sunday, Schumer joked to the audience, "[I]t's not fun to be pregnant at the same time as Meghan Markle." No, we can't imagine it would be.
Schumer's been poking fun at her pregnant self on social media, and we admit we are kind of digging it. On Instagram, she posted a pic comparing the first trimester to a grotesque crime scene. She captioned it, "First trimester had me like," referring to an image she posted of herself face-down in a bowl at the dinner table. She added, "#soblessed."
More: Amy Schumer Got Woke — With the Help of Actor Gabrielle Union
Schumer also posted a comic shot of herself with her hands over belly, captioned, "My precious."
Why couldn't we have been pregnant at the same time as Amy Schumer? We have a hunch her relatable (and, frankly, hilarious) candor is going to be serious balm for other newly pregnant women whose pregnancies don't feel like Meghan's (seemingly) dainty gestation. Guess whose bodies Schumer photo-edited her own head and Fischer's upon? We have to think that somewhere in private, Harry and Meghan are cracking up too.

This Canadian act has had a couple of releases out previously as my first dabble with their music was via the split they did with Solanum in 2015. Following on from that is this sophomore which is an explosion of thrash and crossover with a savage production. That production has given the guitar work a rawness that you don't often hear with thrash albums these days as bands tend to use as many tricks to get their sound right. This is warts and all 30 minutes of battering riffs, clanging drums and pummelling bass work, topped off by the harsh scathing vocals.
"Rotting In Plain Sight" opens the album and immediately you are thrown against the wall by the sound which is piercing but highly effective even if an old thrasher like myself prefers harsher styled stuff as it allows me to reminisce. However don't be fooled by my superlatives of the sound thinking it is poorly done, as this is not the case, the sound is deliberate and gives massive emphasis to the riffs which are simplistic, relatively speaking, but balanced by the ferocity of the vocals and drums perfectly exemplified by the crossover assault of "Dark Thoughts". "Stewing In Misery" begins with a fine build up riff that sits on the hardcore side building nicely towards the detonation of the riff break which is superb and very like crossover period D.R.I.
The dynamics of this release give you tracks with varying levels of speed and intensity as "Losing Time" uses a fine bass hook with the guitar riff. Definitely more hardcore based the songs shouted vocal style suits it impeccably as a riff break rockets from the speakers in trademark hardcore fashion complete with the rapidly spat out lyrics. The bands crossover style is more dominant on this release than the split with Solanum or debut making the release far more violent as "Famine" begins with a thrash base increasing the songs power via surges in speed as the track careers into hardcore fused bedlam topped by a piercing guitar hook. The track is one of the heaviest too, deploying double bass to great effect. Instrumental "Hatred" is what you'd expect, 81 seconds of blistering aggression that links nicely into "Sons Of Dogs" even though this tune favours a more heavy metal based riffing style that wouldn't be remiss on a classic Judas Priest album.
I really enjoyed "Breaking Your Mind" which has a great riff and bouncing mosh like beat as the song gears itself up for the riff break which is pure Slayer and works brilliantly making this tune purely thrash with only the vocals hinting at the crossover credentials. This is an album packed with riffs as "Punishment" begins with a fine riff that has some similarities to mid-era Razor being sharp, nasty and fierce leaving "Mortal Kind" to finish you off. Beginning slowly the song evolves along a thrashing riff towards the riff break which arrives and is one of the quirkiest on the album.
If you're of the modern thrash/crossover persuasion preferring a modern production without the warts then buy it as this is the proper stuff and if you're a discerning old school thrasher then look no further as Epi-Demic will be your favourite new band.
