BRSKY is the Music.

Grimes and the Solipsism of Art

“Music is everyone’s possession. It is only publishers who think that people own it.” – John Lennon

grimes-oblivion

Occasionally something amazing happens when people hear music. They actually listen to it. And on even rarer occasions, the music gets further inside of them, past all of the parts that listen and into the ones that think.

But before all that transcendence occurs, there’s a man or woman twisting knobs or stroking keys or stepping up to a muffled microphone in a fuzzy walled room. Before that, there’s a human being internalizing the world around them and, in a Rube-Goldberg machine of soft tissue and impulses, they’re reshaping that phenomena into experience all by their lonesome. The distillation of this broader symphony of being into encapsulated product is probably what people call art.

Staff Picks: Record Store Day 2013

Pin It

Record Store Day

Some of our staff, as well as our growing forum community (the “Brasky Society” over on Facebook), offer their top five picks for Record Store Day 2013.

Derek Clark’s Top 5
1 Brian Eno
Brian Eno x Nicolas Jaar x Grizzly Bear
2 Dan Deacon
Konono Ripoff No 1
3 MGMT
Alien Days
I like cassettes, lately.
4 Elliott Smith
Alternate Versions from Either/Or 7
5 Tame Impala
Tame Impala EP

Christine Browne’s Top 5
1 Josephine Foster
Little Life

This album was actually intended as a children’s
album—it’s warm and dreamy and heavily influenced
by blues and English folk music. Some of it
reminds me of Joanna Newsom’s early work, but
Foster plays a twangy ukulele instead of the harp
and stacks tracks of her rich, warbling,
better-trained voice into pretty vocal harmonies.
2 Sigur Ros
Agaetis Byrjun

This is a album you’ve probably already downloaded
for free, but it’s also exactly the kind of album
that’s worth having on vinyl: beautiful,
beautiful, beautiful (truly struggling here to
avoid using embarrassing descriptors like
“transcendent” and “tapestry” and “shimmering”)
mood music.
3 Gza
Liquid Swords (Chess Box)

This is one of the BEST HIP-HOP ALBUMS EVER MADE,
and it comes in a CHESS BOX with a miniature chess
set. Even people who barely like hip-hop can agree
that the beats on this are sick. And use the
chessboard to roll blunts on!
4 Debashish Bhattacharya
Beyond the Ragasphere

This album is what it would feel like if you
stepped into an Indian hookah bar about an hour
after dropping several hits of acid: GLORIOUS.
5 Various Artists
The Newport Folk Festival #1965

Cuts from an iconic concert with a lot of raw,
dark, bluesy gems and soulful jams, including two
songs by Son House (Son’s Blues and Death Letter
Blues). If I went to a stranger’s party and they
were playing this in the background, I would
immediately like them.

Aaron Rogge’s Top 5
1 The Band
Last Waltz 12″ Vinyl

The ultimate concert and concert film. They essentially did
what LCD Soundsystem did, but in 1976. Had one
last huge concert, invited the biggest stars in
the universe to jam, and had Martin Scorsese
direct a documentary about it. This triple LP has
a ton of stuff not in the film.
2 At the Drive In
Relationship of Command
With two bonus tracks!
3 No Alternative!
20th Anniversary Editions

I remember buying this CD just to get the rare
Smashing Pumpkins song, and the other tracks were
all better.
4 Deep Purple/Type O Negative
Side by Side Highway Star

Even though Peter Steele is dead, I am
intrigued. Highway Star is that song they used as
opening music for Guitar Hero a few years back, if
you don’t know it.
5 MGMT
Alien Days

“Limited edition, collectible cassette single of the first music
from their upcoming album, comes with a digital download code.”
Right, they give you the code so you can actually hear the
song. My truck still has a cassette deck though.

Anna Serena

Anna Serena’s Top 5
1 At The Drive In
Relationship of Command
2 Atmosphere
Demosexual
3 Bombino
Azamane Tiliade
4 Deftones
Live
5 Rolling Stones

Brand New Colonies: Indie Rock’s Second Act

Pin It

This spring, The Postal Service is setting out on a world tour to celebrate the release of their landmark debut album, Give Up. Jeff Mangum is out of hiding and playing Neutral Milk Hotel tunes again. Chris Carrabba is back to fronting Further Seems Forever. Conor Oberst is touring with Desaparecidos. All of these developments are thrilling for a fan of moderately underground emo/indie music, but a quick look at the concert dates yields a surprise: It’s not 2003 at all.

Ten years after the perceived heyday of the “Nothing Feels Good” crowd, there is a much-heralded wave of comeback singles and “X artist playing Y album” shows that seek to reunite woebegone groups with an audience that hopefully still exists. Any speculation on the motivation for these new tours is dicey, but it may have to do with the fact that their brand is simply more profitable this decade than last, thanks to Web 2.0’s redemption of the DIY culture and the burgeoning wallet-space of their aging fan base. It was difficult to connect with audiences ten years ago, due to a nascent internet and lack of record label funding for extensive tours or radio play. It’s hard to say that any of these groups were “ahead of their time”, because as time has worn on it has become obvious that quite a few groups mimicked Pavement, Black Flag, Morrissey, My Bloody Valentine, or all of the above. Yet in the current state of mash-ups and remixes these sins aren’t even sins anymore, and whether or not any indie bands of the era were truly groundbreaking is a subjective argument at best. But at the time they exuded an
“almost there” sensation in all phases of the game, and for teenage me, that was precisely what I liked.

As a youngster growing up in the ex-ex-urbs of an already gamma-class American city, exposure to these groups was mostly through the recommendations of a couple of casual friends who always wore Hot Topic shirts and recommended downloading albums of bands with obscure names from KaZaA or god forbid, LimeWire. One could only hope to get a few tracks a night, as downloads averaged 4 kb/s if Al Gore was feeling charitable. And this is if you could even find Texas is the Reason tracks among the ten different versions of Destiny’s Child’s “Bootylicious” and Eastern European porn clips. If you grew up near a legitimate record store, consider yourself fortunate. Years later I still sometimes find out that I had been listening to demo versions of my favorite songs all along.

At first I was quick to label these comebacks as our generations’ version of the yearly grab bag tour of whatever combination of Foreigner/Styx/Foghat/Blue Oyster Cult/Night Ranger, and although that’s a valid approximation, it wasn’t rock radio perpetuity that indoctrinated this generation of listeners. What makes the indie groups of the early 00s unique is that not only did these bands feel like “our bands”, encountering them was a different kind of mythical experience than seeing Whitesnake or the Grateful Dead. No one says “Man, I followed Jets to Brazil around for most of 2001. Greatest summer of my life.” The experience of much of this era of music was done exclusively in private. These bands existed more or less in your personal space. Unless you lived in or near a major city, you likely never got to see many of your favorite groups play at all. Everyone does have their go-to legendary story of seeing Alkaline Trio play in a Jaycee’s Hall or how you didn’t even realize at the time how tremendous that Brand New/Hot Rod Circuit/Eisley lineup was, and it’s no different than your dad’s story about how he drank beers with Ric Ocasek backstage at the ’81 Ohio state fair. In his case, we are talking about a time when the radio routinely played Barry Manilow and Captain and Tenille, so listening to Molly Hatchet was pretty damned cool, so give him a break and let him flirt with disaster while he works on the hot water heater. You’re gonna have to do it someday.

Identifying with an outsider music culture has always included some degree of collecting reputable experiences. At times it becomes an exercise in expression through conglomeration, and there was always the central matter of how amazing and perfect those lyrics were about your exact life situation. When iPods showed up they became the de facto indie-cred litmus test. If you’re gonna let someone else have a look through your library, you’d better have Pinback on there, because people will judge you if you don’t (PS: It’s not too late: they’re currently on tour supporting a great new album).

It’s hard to predict whether these resurrections will be successful or not. Recently I attended Jeff Mangum’s show at the Beacham in Orlando and found it to be just as powerful as it could have been in its original state. Perhaps ten years has been the proper amount of time for Ben, Jimmy and Jenny to make sure that “Nothing Better” will live up to its name. The Postal Service’s tour stands to be the latest battle in the timeless struggle of “Better Late than Never” versus “Is it better to Burn Out, or Fade Away?”, playing out on mid-size stages across the country. Or is it just the live demo version of the battle?
