Favoriting The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from December 8, 2023 Favoriting

Rich in Washington's avatar View Rich in Washington's profile Favoriting

The Radio Is Broken is a three-hour spelunk through the canyons and fissures of humanity's collective unconscious. It sounds as if a field recording of the Culture Industry were a sonic juggernaut barreling down a rickety track—except that tunnel ahead is just painted onto a sheer cliff wall. With occasional forays into what might pass for "normal" music. Prerequisite journey: Cratedigger's Lung

Well, I had missed the Witch Trials, but was on-board at Grotesque. Yet perhaps a bit green around the gills to fully grasp the gestalt. Yet by 1985’s This Nations Saving Grace i was locked & loaded. & it’s still the one that turns the crank! Favourite among many. What a run.
