"Records Ruin the Landscape: John Cage, the Sixties, and Sound Recording." Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 2014. Reviewed by: Alexandra Hui (AssoCiate Professor of History at Mississippi State University, head of the History of SCienCe, TeChnology, and MediCine field, and Core FaCulty of the Center for the History of AgriCulture, SCienCe, and the Environment in the South) David Grubbs is an AssoCiate Professor at Brooklyn College Conservatory of MusiC. SuCh trappings of tenure and domestiCation should not, however, fool you. From his first flights as part of the punk band Squirrel Bait in his teen years to his founding membership with the ChiCago experimental musiC group Gastr del Sol to his ongoing collaborations with Tony Conrad, Pauline Oliveros, the Red Krayola, and many more, Grubbs is as muCh a musician as an academiC. He is also as muCh a ravenous, easily- distraCted, tiCkled-by-the-obsCure listener of the present as an exCeedingly thoughtful and eminently readable historian of sounds past. These many identities are mobilized in Grubbs’ delightful new book, Records Ruin the Landscape: John Cage, the Sixties, and Sound Recording. The book begins and ends with disCussions of his own listening experienCes, in the past as a graduate student in ChiCago slinking around the free jazz and improvised musiC scene and presently, attempting to navigate the infinitude of listening possibilities on DRAM with some semblance of disCipline. In a way, this gives the book a narrative arC.1 But the very premise of Records Ruin the Landscape is a folding — a knotting even — of temporality.

The Squirrel Bait and Rodan genealogies continued to dominate Kentucky's and Chicago's post-rock scene during the 1990s. Half of Rodan, i.e. Tara Jane O'Neil (now on vocals and guitar) and Kevin Coultas, formed Sonora Pine with keyboardist and guitarist Sean Meadows, violinist Samara Lubelski and pianist Rachel Grimes. Their debut album, Sonora Pine (1996), basically applied Rodan's aesthetics to the format of the folk lullaby. Another member of Rodan, guitarist Jeff Mueller, formed June Of 44 (11), a sort of supergroup comprising Sonora Pine's guitarist Sean Meadows, Codeine's drummer and keyboardist Doug Scharin, and bassist and trumpet player Fred Erskine. Engine Takes To The Water (1995) signaled the evolution of "slo-core" towards a coldly neurotic form, which achieved a hypnotic and catatonic tone, besides a classic austerity, on the mini-album Tropics And Meridians (1996). Sustained by abrasive and inconclusive guitar doodling, mutant rhythm and off-key counterpoint of violin and trumpet, Four Great Points (1998) metabolized dub, raga, jazz, pop in a theater of calculated gestures.

  • Slints Spiderland Free

The record's greatest Slints Spiderland might be the boundless inspiration it perpetually provides for all the bands that have yet to emerge from the basement. And just what did Slint think their audience—who, judging from the faint smattering of applause, barely cracked the double digits— needed to hear at that moment? In many respects, the story Slints Spiderland Slint is an exceedingly familiar one of influence accruing in absentia, of mavericks who were ignored in their time and had to wait years to get their due. Through their initial existence, Slint were obscure Slints Spiderland even within the subterranean confines of the American indie-rock underground. Compared to the get-in-the-van, play-anywhere ethic practised by fellow s-hardcore students, Slint rarely performed live, and when they did, it was rarely as a headliner. Slints Spiderland were scarce; band photos all the more so. And with the similarly atmospheric, equally explosive likes of Mogwai and Godspeed You! Black Emperor dominating the lates indie-rock conversation, Slint ceased to be just some band that had broken up too soon and became an entire subgenre of Slints Spiderland unto itself. I mean, just look at the cover of the Slints Spiderland set—notice something missing? The demos practically break down Spiderland on a riff-by-riff basis, as we hear the songs devolve from pre-production dress rehearsals to rudimentary acoustic sketches recorded on cassette.

  • Geföhnter Hardcore
    # 2008/43 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2008/43/gefoehnter-hardcore Die neue Platte von David Grubbs Geföhnter Hardcore Von Martin Büsser Squirrel Bait, diese Vereinigung 16jähriger Teenager, die Stücke über Vergil machten, kamen in den Achtzigern zu früh. Jetzt kann man sich die Pionierarbeit von Postrock retrospektiv anhören und auch, wie David Grubbs heute klingt. Für einige Menschen war die erste Hälfte der achtziger Jahre ein musikalisches Paradies. So zumindest sieht es Paul Rachman, Regisseur des viel beachteten Dokumentarfilms »American Hardcore« (2006). Von MTV und dessen Hörern völlig ignoriert, entstand zu dieser Zeit in den USA eine vitale Szene, die völlig auf sich selbst gestellt war, eigene Labels und Netzwerke hervorbrachte und innerhalb kürzester Zeit zu Hunderten von Bandgründungen führte. Doch selbst ein Fan wie Rachman kann nicht ignorieren, dass die Szene fast ausschließlich von Männern dominiert wurde, weißen Männern. Und ausgerechnet die einzige schwarze Hardcore-Band, The Bad Brains, war für ihre Schwulenfeindlichkeit berüchtigt. Von solchen gender politics einmal abgesehen, hatte die Szene allerdings noch einen ganz anderen gravierenden Schönheitsfehler: Nahezu alle Bands hörten sich gleich an. Hardcore war Ausdruck ungefilterter jugendlicher Wut, musikalische Feinheiten wurden da nicht so genau genommen. Unter rein musikalischen Gesichtspunkten ist »American Hardcore« daher auch ein sterbenslangweiliger Film, aus dessen Einheitsgeknüppel gerade einmal Black Flag, die notorisch unterschätzten Flipper und Minutemen hervorstechen. Letztgenannte seien »zu erwachsen für die Hardcore- Szene« gewesen, hatte Thurston Moore von Sonic Youth einmal gesagt. Das könnte man auch von Squirrel Bait behaupten. Liest sich aber komisch, wenn man bedenkt, dass die Musiker zur Zeit der Bandgründung gerade einmal 16 Jahre alt waren.

  • The Punk Vault : Joy Division Under Review DVD Page 1 of 11
    The Punk Vault : Joy Division Under Review DVD Page 1 of 11 The Punk Vault « Selections from The Punk Vault [Pleased Youth] Joy Division Under Review DVD Joy Division - Under Review DVD Music Video Distributors One of the more influential first wave of sort of post-punk bands, Joy Division, gets the documentary treatment in the Under Review series. Much like The Velvet Underground one, this focuses on not one record, but the entire career of the band and what happened in their wake. The documentary starts out talking about the punk scene happening in the UK at the time and how one particular Sex Pistols gig influenced an entire crowd of people who ended up forming their own bands, many of which became rather successful. It was at this gig that three gentlemen decided to form a band and called themselves Warsaw. It wasn’t long before a name change to Joy Division happened and they were gigging and recording. The story is told through interviews with various music journalists and one of the co-authors of the Ian Curtis biography. They leave no stone uncovered, delving into everything including Curtis’ battle with epilepsy, his extra-marital affair and his depression and eventual suicide. There is video footage, live footage, http://www.punkvinyl.com/2006/12/11/joy-division-under-review-dvd/ 12/13/2006 The Punk Vault : Joy Division Under Review DVD Page 2 of 11 interview footage, and TV appearance footage. They do an extremely good job in educating the viewer about pretty much anything they’d want to know about Joy Division, and even give some in-depth analysis about the records and specific songs on them.

Allegedly, when Wilson was told that one of his elaborately packaged releases for Factory Records was actually going to lose money each time it sold, he said with genuine glee, “That’s okay, because we’re going to sell fuck-all copies!” What beautiful logic. In Brit-speak, “fuck- Factories of Immaculate Fuck-All all” is next to nothing. In a similar fashion, over its nearly two-decade, century- straddling existence, TotE has not only operated on handshake deals (like Factory) but also obsessed solely over the immaculate aesthetics of its releases, shunning commercialism, even damning it, for the sake of art. eff Hunt once had a vivid waking dream involving visions of the saints, Jin which perfectly aligned, rectangular portals opened up in a high, A friend and former colleague likes to say that Jeff Hunt has “the best eye in the vaulted ceiling, radiating silver, black and glowing white. “Trust me to business.” It’s true, and his impeccable taste seems natural and effortless, an hallucinate in Hunt/Archie art direction,” he quipped. The Archie he was impression only enhanced by the stark elegance of the TotE designs. No doubt 6 7 talking about would be Susan Archie, the Grammy-winning designer he’s had this aptitude and flair from day one, which brings to mind another with whom Jeff has collaborated in over 60 releases for Table of the quote it’s hard to resist citing here.
