This week, we're supposed to #Obey?
The Brian Jonestown Massacre - “Resist Much Obey Little” from Don't Get Lost (2017)
For years I’d heard #BrianJonestownMassacre here and there, mostly on college radio, and dug what I heard, but somehow an impression never stuck, if I’m being honest, until #AnthonyBourdain put founder/front man/driving force/connective tissue #AntonNewcombe in front of my eyeballs on his food/travelogue show #PartsUnknown.
Well thanks, Tony, for helping to correct that oversight. Newcombe excretes music from his pores, and puts out a record whenever he stops to collect this vital bodily fluid. #Shoegaze, #GarageRock, #PychedelicRock, jangly #PowerPop - Newcombe's oeuvre checks a lot of boxes, feeling a bit how I imagine it might be to walk through a car wash: Startling, seems fun at the start! Abrasive at times, chaotic but with a rhythm and a direction, keeps you moving, leaves you a little confused but cleansed.
As for this track - could there be a more appropriate time? But be careful out there, friends.
