Right on, trinity. I’ve given their music a bunch of tries but it’s sooo contrived and simply annoying. I understand some of my favorite music had to “slow burn”; like it took a few listens to really soak in because it was different. But theirs doesn’t work that way…it just reaks of trying way too hard to be abrasive and weird without any real vision or heart.
I mean, look at the absurd album art…is it like such an ironic commentary on irony istelf that it becomes serious art? i call bullshit. supposed to be comical? is it supposed to be such an ironic commentary on “our blindness to dismiss our American art revolutionaries” bla bla bla? i call bullshit. Hey Antony, it’s not hard to hard to take risks…it’s hard to create something worthy of taking risks.
