Has every bit of Dog Fashion Disco in it I want in a Dog Fashion Disco record. Fits the discography like priest in a nursery.
Dog Fashion Disco – Cult Classic
Dog Fashion Disco – Adultery
First thing first: Dog Fashion Disco is one of my top 5 favorite bands ever across all genres. Thier avant-garde metal is quirky, bizarre, fun, strange, and overall absolutely astonishing. It’s like a dead jazz musician reanimated as a metal-head zombie and marching around in a dark circus in a clown outfit with all instruments hanging on it and played at the same time. And love songs. And satan. And life wisdom.
And finally their full catalogue is available on Spotify. As far as I know there was some legal shit going on why they couldn’t have done that so far and now all the albums are there. So I can listen to this masterpiece called Adultery every other day like every normal person should. (I’ll still keep my safety copy in Dropbox, just in case.)
Random note: now when looking for an album cover image and searching for the band and album title did I stumble upon that this concept record has been made into an actual novel. How cool is that! I’ve quickly put it on my reading list, I really hope it’s just as trash as I want it to be.
Ah man, I love this music so fucking much. It’s like air to breath and blood to drink.
Marie Davidson – Working Class Woman
This album is part hilarious and part fascinating. Work It is something I cannot not re-listen any number of times, it is like a caricature of a motivational speech but it actually does feel motivating. And The Tunnel is creepy like hell, it’s like an audio version of a horror movie and not in a sense that there are horroresque soundtrack elements in it but the atmosphere and words hit nails under my nails. Overall the whole record is that great kind of avantgarde with minimal wave synth sounds where the words deliver meaning even if they sound dadaist at times. It’s artsy but works.
Jozef van Wissem & Jim Jarmusch – An Attempt to Draw Aside the Veil
Most of this is too experimental for why I follow their work, but The Unclouded Day is a nice piece.
Mike Cooper – Fratello Mare
Alright, this is something completely wicked. Like listening to some ukulele-driven tropical elevator music while being completely fucked up on acid and having a seriously twisted trip. It is not good, per se, but cannot not listen to it.
Apostille – Powerless
Somewhere around industrial, avant-garde and synth-something. But really this is rather an album of compositions around free associations. The free spirit of it is most definitely the best aspect here that kept me listening from beginning to end.
