AIDS Wolf - "General"

IN MOON LANGUAGE WE WILL NEED TO LEARN TO COMMUNICATE EMOTIONS. HOWEVER, WORDS MUST REMAIN RESERVED FOR TOPICS OF SURVIVAL, RESOURCE CREATION AND HABITABLE CLIMATE INITIATION. THE NEXT OBVIOUS PATH WILL BE THAT OF MOVEMENT, DRESS, AND EYE CONTACT. DURATION, SPACE, VOLUME OF MOVEMENT, LEVEL OF INTENSITY SET FORTH THROUGH THE EYES (HERETOFORE CALLED "EYE DREAM BEAMS") AND COLOR, SHAPE, LENGTH, USE, AND SWEAT DISTRIBUTION IN THE CLOTHES AND HAIRCUT WILL ALL BE WAYS OF COMMUNICATING EMOTION. I ONCE SAW A WOMAN SCREAMING, SURROUNDED BY THREE SOLDIERS IN KHAKI SHIRTS PLAYING GUITARS LIKE THEY WERE TYPING IN A MASSIVE PASSCODE, HER HAIR CUT IN LIVING SCULPTURE DESIGNED TO TROMPE THE L'OEIL, CAREEN INTO A CROWD OF PEOPLE SO MESMERIZED BY HER STATEMENT THAT THEY SEEMED JOLTED INTO ACTION AS FROM ELECTRICITY. THIS WAS A PERFECT USE OF MOON LANGUAGE.

Barack Obama is now the president, I couldn't not mention it. The only thing I have to say is that in my open letter to all the Canadian cynics who seem to be looking for holes, reasons not to believe a word they hear or a thing they see, you could sum up the gist of it as "shut up".

an alternate post for the same song after the jump..

Noise rock is the new Jazz. In the future, there will be all sorts of old noise rock bars where old men, of which I will be one, will go and spend the night tapping their feet and nodding their heads and cooing and smiling and saying "yeah!" to all the little tricks and squinks of musicianship that bands made of other old-timers will perform. It will be a revered genre reserved for a kind of "elevated mind" of music, when we can see now that it's in this stage, now that the best pioneers of the genre (the first generation of Sonic Youth and this newer, more divorced from pop, one of AIDS Wolf) are currently working and making history, that this is not really the case, it's just another subculture within art-making, but it's fascinating and I love it and I'm fully on board. But it feels very strange to be sitting in that noise rock bar in the future, I'm sitting there right now, and I'm turning to the shaggy old gaunt trenchcoat next to me wearing three layers of hearing aid, saying "they don't make 'em like they used to".
