Contempt for the Devil (two Godard films re-released on DVD)

-

“Sympathy for the Devil" and "Contempt”  Every kind of break up leaves you confused and disconnected, miserable and unclear to where and why it all began. Both films tell the story of self-polluting relationships parting ways. One: between a band, the other: man and woman fall out of love. Both films also start at the end of their relationships, or the beginning of the end, which is ironic, because there is no narrative finish line, or expected resolution. The common link between the two- there is no finite ending. You could loop these films, you’d come up with the same objective conclusions. Like “Zabriskie Point’s” slight lyrical tone, there must be more behind the script, and the way it unravels. Godard eliminates the need for climax: “Sympathy for the Devil” ends with a third of the Rolling Stones on the floor artistically defeated, jamming nonsense on a jembey drum and guitar. “Contempt” ends with an unexpected, unexplained car crash. The creation of a song is li...

The rock opera that saved my life! (Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation)

-

What makes a great rock and roll album? Sing alongs, lyrical chants, twenty minute guitar solos? If it makes you feel...anything, then you’re there. The world of rock and roll. Being one with Sonic Youth’s “Daydream Nation” is on par with the mountain level psychotropic acid flux, the Dali Lama feels all the time. That oneness is about a connection, a connection to something higher and more powerful than a love song. To know, somebody is feeling what you’re feeling is an under-looked effect. And who more art affected than musicians? Thurston Moore, Lee Renaldo, Kim Gordon, and Steve Shelley comprise the thirty year young- Sonic Youth. Praised by the elite music world, such as greats: Neil Young, R.E.M., and Radiohead, they have outsold their contemporaries, over-inpsired youths of America, and now raise children in the suburbs of New Hampshire, while maintaining their original strategy: to reinvent rock and roll. The Sonic’s music puts a bug in the mainframe of controlled media s...

Chris Jack of The Routes ditches his fuzzy 60s psych-garage rippers to drop stunning solo-acoustic debut

-
Image
Mark E. Smith once said, “The Fall is me and your gran on bongos” (or something along those lines). Undergoing numerous member changes, Chris Jack has led The Routes for 14 years. The albums “In This Perfect Hell” and “Dirty Needles and Pins” could have been classified as solo albums, where the “band” was just Chris, and drummer Jonathan Hillhouse. On the last Routes album “Tune Out, Switch Off, Drop-In”, Chris was joined by English drummer and old friend Bryan Styles (with whom he briefly played in a post-rock band at age 18). Whilst working on the album, Chris was playing around with some acoustic song ideas. He sent demo recordings to a few friends. Action Weekend Records said “Let’s make an album!”, Bryan came in on drums, percussion and glockenspiel and “ Miles To Go” was born! What? No fuzz!? That’s right! Gone are the snotty vocals and fuzz guitars. There’s no garage here. Chris Jacks' acoustic compositions are accompanied by organ, Rhodes, melodeon, vibraphone and more. Alt...

Zabriskie Point (Michelangelo Antonioni)

-
Image
“So anyway... ought to be a word.” - Daria Jean-Luc Godard asked: “What is it about?” A question of this stature is the equivalent to the jazz aficionado attempting to discover the hidden meaning behind Eric Dolphy’s relative metaphysical masterpiece- “Out to Lunch”. I could play it safe and say, Antonioni was playing script-jazz, or it’s a foreign film parodying an American film made by a foreign filmmaker who’s never seen an American film. Those all work. It’s about everything, and absolutely nothing at the same time. That works too, but what’s it really about? Zabriskie Point is a protest against insignificance. Mark, the lead, is a twenty year old college student who drops out of unified emotional society, a generation of rebellion, and rejects normal human existence, by hijacking a plane, falling in love, and getting shot dead, all within a week’s passing. Throughout the movie, we’re bombarded by advertising billboards, seeing what Mark sees along his uninspired quest to e...

Clusters (Bob Dylan)

'Bringing it all back home, Highway 61 Revisited, Blonde on Blonde, Live 66' There is a general theory among all walks of life, and all art forms. The “Low-Middle-High” progression. Low, being the beginnings of the artist’s career. Middle, being the peak, or apex of the artist’s talents and success. The High, comes after the artist has accomplished what is considered by the general public as his/her best work, and attempts to peak again, or rather, “get it back” as they say. A short cut example- The Beatles land in Hamburg, Germany, get a record deal (Low) and cut their first records, to the middle albums around “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” (Middle) as they reinvented mainstream pop culture beyond the massive revolutionary aspect of their evolving song structures and in depth lyrics. The High point, being the “Abbey Road.” sessions- Lennon coming back to the blues, and McCartney trying to recapture his progressive rock innovations. In a macro overview of Bo...
