Get off topic, stay off topic, I always say.
(remember the IDM'est 'X' days?)
I recently got into James Chance and the Contortions. Any recommendations?
Always liked the Flying Luttenbachers, even better since the most recent
album ('Destroy All Music' had too much Vandermark in it for me).
I like to think that Like A Tim counts as No Wave, since his music seems to
be all about fucking with people and trying to make it as bad as possible.
Dykehouse's recent Karaoke DJ performance, esp. the MBV cover, certainly
counts as no-wave based on the DC crowd response; if he had been a little
less self-effacing and more Rollins it would have been spot on.
My fave of all time, and in some ways the unwary flab (sic) bearer of the
movement, is Wesley Willis, demented American genius. He's got a fucking
Greatest Hits record. He's funnier than Brak.
So who wants to argue about No Wave? Come on, everybody likes idiot noise
crossed with pop!
