	9:00pm Rich in Washington: I really should've cleared the dirty dishes away before starting my show
	🥁 9:00pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:57 new jobs just in, I'll be work/lurking

	9:03pm ironybread: Good evening all, and farewell our Uncle SHICK uh LEE.
	9:04pm ultradamno: The Flux Gourmet soundtrack (which includes Nurse With Wound, Heather Trost, Sonic Catering Band, Cavern Of Anti-Matter, Tim Harrison, Roj, Jeremy Barnes, Dan Hayhurst and Marta Salogni) is now up for pre-order (double vinyl, color or black, cassette or digital options)...the movie itself is on Shudder and is a lot of fun badabingrecords.bandcamp.com...
	9:04pm Robm: howdy fellow listeners
	9:05pm Rich in Washington: Hi tom tom! Hi ironybread! Hi Robm!
	🥁 9:05pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Opening Monolog" by "Peter Schickele, Douglas Tru... Great movie, B Dern suitably unhinged.
	9:06pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	9:06pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Song: "Opening Monolog" by "Peter Schickele, Douglas Tru... I just remember the fight scene with the shovels with floppy rubber blades.
	9:07pm Rich in Washington: Hi pot8o!
	9:07pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "(Special Treatment For The) Family Man" by "Tuxed... The ballad of Dan White...a favorite
	9:07pm TDK60: Hi Rich.
	9:07pm Rich in Washington: I remember begging my mom to let me skip school because Silent Running was the afternoon movie one day. Bless her.
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ TDK60 @9:07 Hey TDK60!
	9:08pm Dean: I'm not a movie person, but I did see Silent Running in the theater. It irks me that I don't remember a damn thing about it.
	9:10pm Androu B.: Evening Rich & Radio Wreckers! Yeah, Don-O mentioned Peter Schickele's passing 3 hours ago. My brother introduced me to "Silent Running" early last year, but I first heard about it from a doc video short about the making of MST3K. Now I understand how the movie's premise relates to the show.
	9:12pm Rich in Washington: There's a pretty good doc on the making of Silent Running on the yoo toobs. Shot on the real decommissioned carrier Valley Forge, which was sort of a pain in the ass.
	🥁 9:12pm Aitch: ↳ Dean @9:08 Noahs Arc, except with corporations vs a hippy
	9:14pm TDK60: I've never seen Silent Running either. 17 Pygmies - First time hearing. I think they had a sort of sister-band relation with Savage Republic.
	9:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ TDK60 @9:14 Yeah, they shared some members of SR.
	9:15pm tom tom the pipers son: apropos of nothing just got through listening to "you showed me" by the turtles a couple of times through, after listening to an episode on them on the great podcast 500 songs. the vocal break by howard kaylan in that song floors me. btw rich, i believe i showed you the link to that podcast, have you listened?
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:15 Dang, I don't think I did! Sorry!
	9:17pm Dean: I've asked this before: Was there a time when Wall of Voodoo was performing as Mur de Son? Pre-first album.
	9:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:17 not that I'm aware of. I do know they started out as a would-be film soundtrack company.
	9:19pm Dean: (Though it could have been a hoax, I was telephoned many years ago...'79? '80?...by somebody from WoV...Stan? Mark?...asking my band to join them at a show at Hong Kong Cafe or Madame Wong's. We agreed, but promptly broke up. There are flyers.)
	9:19pm Androu B.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:15 What a co-inky-dink! I just looked that song up on Secondhand Songs recently. Several covers of it show up on their list.
	9:19pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:16 it's there anyway, when you get the notion...
	9:20pm Dean: I recall either a KPFK or KROQ show featuring a Mur de Son. Saw Monitor at Beyond Baroque, I believe.
	9:20pm ultradamno: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:18 ...and from the ashes of Skulls and Eyes
	9:21pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:17 Possibly it was a Moreland brothers thing pre Stan??
	9:21pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:19 yes, that is one of those, indeed. i'll take a look
	9:22pm Dean: Entirely possible, chresti, yes. Sure wish I could revisit the broadcast.
	9:22pm ultradamno: I've heard of Mur du son, but they're Dutch, and more recent.
	9:22pm Rich in Washington: It's chresti! Hi!
	9:23pm MHLee: Hi Rich.
	9:23pm Dean: Also saw The Skulls a time or two. Damn fine.
	9:23pm Rich in Washington: Hi MHLee!
	9:23pm chresti: Hi Rich!
	9:24pm MHLee: I'm not aware if you know of the the project but the dude behind The Soft Moon passed away
	9:24pm Dean: WFMU needs to devote more airtime to Middle Class, another band like Monitor that veered from punk in productive ways.
	9:25pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:23 I remember seeing them and liking them. Beyond that have no memory of what they sounded like.
	🥁 9:25pm Kat in the chat: I forgot to say hi. Hi!
	9:26pm Rich in Washington: I would love to track down some of the more esoteric LA bands which appeared on New Wave Theatre. That show was the gateway to Monitor for me.
	9:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:25 Kat's in the chat!
	9:27pm Rich in Washington: ↳ MHLee @9:24 I just heard but I'm not super familiar with their stuff.
	9:28pm Dean: Whoo, boy, The Eyes were quite a treat.
	9:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Sleeping" by "Error" funny, this does not sound "1990"
	🥁 9:30pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:27 I didn't know The Soft Moon but I have been a Silent Servant fan for years, that came as a shock.
	9:30pm chresti: Oh, yeah!
	9:31pm ultradamno: Wet Picnic was on there a lot www.discogs.com... I have Cipher's ep, who I recall being on there, it's pretty good www.discogs.com...
	9:31pm Dean: Friend just informed me that Myra Melford's trio will play a piano store in Oakland near us in early February. I'm there.
	9:31pm Doug Schulkind: Hey, Rich!
	9:31pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:31 Doug! Boy, you're up late for an early riser!
	9:32pm Androu B.: ↳ Song: "Sleeping" by "Error" Interesting that this came out around the same time I was already listening to IDM & New Beat.
	9:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:32 oh that's interesting, so that wasn't really an outlier...(?)
	9:36pm Dean: OT rant. Why does the NYT do BS stories like this? "Stop Ignoring All the Mundane Miracles in Your Life "Turn your monotonous moments into monuments by taking notes of what you observe. It only takes 15 minutes a day." Not a lick of news. Pure fluff. It both bores and frightens me.
	9:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:36 i have started doing mashups (with som editing) of ny times headlines
	9:38pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Cleanliness And Order" by "Boyd Rice and Daniel M... Weeee!
	9:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:36 almost sounds like crap coming out of an AI bot.
	9:38pm Androu B.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:35 Not sure what you mean by that.
	9:38pm Ike: MROWRRRRR!!!!
	9:38pm Dean: And NON at Kelbo's...an unforgettable show.
	9:39pm pot8o: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:38 probably is
	9:39pm Dean: I don't blame AI bots. I blame humans. Their BS trains AI bots.
	9:39pm chresti: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:37 like collage?
	9:40pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:38 thought you were comparing it to similar electronic music from the same time, while i thought it was out of place for 1990
	9:43pm ironybread: This is the one and only Musicworks title in my collection, #60, "Plunderphonia & Vox" www.discogs.com...
	9:43pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @9:39 i've posted them on a couple of chat boards, more like cut ups, just running the headlines together, they're disposable
	9:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @9:39 like this.... How a Polyamorous Mom Had ‘a Big Sexual Adventure’ and Found Herself The Secret Ingredient Your Rice Krispies Treats Are MissingThe Whale Who Went AWOLI’ve Got Bedbugs! How Do I Get Out of My Lease?
	9:45pm ironybread: Musicworks are, I think, still doing the thing; last title was #137 in 2020
	9:45pm ultradamno: By the way, goddamn death dedication...Mary Weiss of Shangri La's...
	9:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @9:45 oh no
	9:46pm TDK60: Well, all three outfits were clustered on that left coast, down around L.A. SR, 17P, WoV.
	9:46pm Dean: Not being a movie-goer (see above), my favorite movies might include Barry Lyndon, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Peppermint Soda, Mr. Houlot's Holiday.
	9:46pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Rejoice In The Sun (feat. Joan Baez)" by "Peter S... I never knew about this Baez/Shickele cut.
	9:48pm ultradamno: www.rollingstone.com...
	9:49pm Androu B.: ↳ Dean @9:39 It's because the technology is more accessible now, which is not necessarily a good thing. It can be comparable to a new power tool. In the hands of a person not well-versed in computer science or a related field, it can become a risky, if not dangerous, weapon of choice, to the point where it could effectively wreak havoc on the interwebs, creating much more complex and destructive viruses than we've seen during the previous generations of the Computer Age.
	9:49pm chresti: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:44 ah perfect fun!
	9:50pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @9:49 oh thanks, not total chance, there's some editing involved
	9:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:38 did that clarify?
	9:54pm MHLee: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:27 Post-punk sometimes reminds me of nin
	9:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @9:46 You're right. There was a loose federation known as Skull Bands that played together at one off venues as well as the more high profile joints.
	9:56pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:55 Franco, hi! Always available to stand up for the local talent.
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:55 Franco!
	9:58pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Rich and TDK!
	9:58pm TDK60: Although I've never much been into Baez's voice, that was a perty tune. I like some of her selections.
	9:59pm Androu B.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:40 Oh, that's true. It does have a more 80's synthpop sound. maybe they were oblivious of the fact that the musical landscape was already changing by then, or they were just intentionally rebelling against that change while simultaneously hoping to fall in with the new underground electronic scene that was emerging at that time.
	10:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @9:58 baez's voice did convey a "holier than thou" thing
	10:00pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Saturn" by "Peter Schickele" Sounds like incidental star trek ost
	10:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:59 u huh, thx...
	🥁 10:01pm Aitch: ↳ MHLee @10:00 nervy
	10:06pm tom tom the pipers son: bruce dern is very good in "family plot" along with rest of cast, although not an especially good film
	🥁 10:07pm Aitch: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:06 and taught his daughter how to weird good too
	10:08pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Aitch @10:07 nice point
	10:09pm ultradamno: I LOVE Family Plot, I think it gets short shrifted for being the movie that ends Hitchcock's career....and all the masterpieces it as such followed, but it's a lot of fun.
	10:11pm TDK60: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:00 tomtom: I don't feel that. But, I was talking about the timbre of her voice, not my cuppa tea.
	10:12pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:09 ah, that's probably true, excepting certain scenes, it's better than torn curtain and probably topaz which i'm not sure i've ever seen completely through..
	10:12pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @10:11 ah, i misconstrued
	10:15pm ultradamno: Plus, there's humor in it, The Lady Vanishes is underrated too. People resist humor in Hitchcock for some reason
	10:15pm TDK60: Wait! Let me get my ear plugs....
	10:15pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Endless Blockades For The Pussyfooter" by "G.I.S.M." For some reason? IT'S FUCKING GREAT.
	🥁 10:16pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Endless Blockades For The Pussyfooter" by "G.I.S.M." Oi!
	10:17pm ultradamno: Also, really the first group to work in both metal and industrial styles (unless you count Leather Nun...which was more 70s hard rock and industrial)
	10:17pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:15 i love the interstitial bits he did for tv show, very funny
	10:18pm ultradamno: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:17 They rerun sometimes, I think on MeTV, or SyFy. Great stuff...
	10:20pm ultradamno: Relapse did a great job on those G.I.S.M records too, as they have done with the Boris and Merzbow records they've put out.
	10:22pm ironybread: Tudeo cat loves Japanese hardcore & says hi to you all
	10:23pm ultradamno: This is making me miss Schizo Sofrito
	10:24pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @10:22 Hi Tuxedo Cat!
	10:24pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "(tere their) Syphilitic Vaginas To Pieces" by "G.... who gave them syphylis
	10:25pm ultradamno: Brian Turner testimonial blog.wfmu.org... RIP Sakevi Yokoyama www.brooklynvegan.com...
	🥁 10:27pm Aitch: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:24 Sisyphus? He was into rock
	10:27pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Aitch @10:27 olo good one
	10:28pm ultradamno: I hear the president has some to share (could be why his wife is taking separate rides now)
	10:28pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @10:27 depends on what he was using to push that rock
	10:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:28 another rock
	10:29pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @10:28 Ex-president...unless you hear him tell it.
	10:30pm Dean: Sysyphus ran up that hill with no problems.
	🥁 10:30pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:28 It was the roll bit he hated
	10:34pm tom tom the pipers son: @rich: more metal than hardcore...any corrupted in your collection?
	10:37pm ultradamno: There was Friction, decidedly pre-hardcore with no wave ties, but probably Japan's first...
	10:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:34 Japanese Hardcore was very metal influenced. I few D-Beat adherents but metal was huge in Japan in the mid 80s
	10:38pm Androu B.: ↳ Song: "Explosion (Burst) Head" by "The Stalin" I think I get the gist of the title: It's supposed to be a pun on the economic term "stop gap".
	10:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:37 maybe that's why this is making me think of corrupted...
	10:42pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:37 do you know of 90's cd comp "osaka greasy truckers"?, had a band subvert blaze that i liked a lot
	10:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:42 I've never heard of that. Interesting.
	10:44pm tom tom the pipers son: www.forcedexposure.com...
	10:45pm Dean: I hear "pressing on" as "rise above."
	10:45pm Rich in Washington: I have two of those 60s Japanese Psych/Garage comps that came out in the 90s.
	10:46pm ultradamno: G.I.S.M were more metal, but like Venom and Motörhead, they were embraced by a lot of people in hardcore (Tesco Vee was a big champion of them)
	10:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:46 I remember them being pretty big back in the day.
	10:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:45 bands on "osaka..." contemporary to '94
	🥁 10:51pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Nietsche" by "The Stalin" later dude
	🥁 10:51pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Nietsche" by "The Stalin" curious place for Sharrock to turn up
	10:51pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:28 late reaction.... maybe that's why he's claiming immunity
	🥁 10:51pm Aitch: ↳ Aitch @10:51 sounds so Cali
	10:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:51 innit?
	10:53pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Nietsche" by "The Stalin" It's downright fishy
	10:56pm ultradamno: As fish albums go, maybe not up to Trout Mask Replica, but far better than "....You Can't Tuna Fish"
	11:05pm Rich in Washington: nice discordant guitar in this. Sorta makes it easier to understand why they'd want to work with Laswell and Sharrock a few years later.
	🥁 11:06pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:05 And a punker version of the Warsaw/Joy Division stuff
	11:06pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "The Warsaw Illusion" by "The Stalin" digging this one
	11:07pm doctorjazz: Hi Rich and Streamers, here for the tail end.
	11:07pm coelacanth∅))): hello Rich and all
	11:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @11:07 Hello coelacanth∅)))!
	11:08pm ultradamno: ↳ Aitch @11:06 I always kind of thought that live cut on Short Circuit indicated they might have been that punker version, pity it's not more documented
	11:09pm Rich in Washington: ↳ doctorjazz @11:07 Hi doc!
	11:10pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "オキシジェン・デストロイヤー o" by "G-Zet" fun guitar on this one too.
	11:10pm coelacanth∅))): yah
	11:14pm coelacanth∅))): this vocal reminds me of the dull, or killdozer...
	11:19pm Androu B.: Is it just on my end, or does anyone else here notice that the Accu hasn't budged an inch since Stalin's "M-16"?
	11:21pm Androu B.: ↳ Song: "堕落" by "G-Zet" OK, that's better!
	11:21pm ultradamno: ↳ Androu B. @11:19 I'm seeeing G-Zet under it
	11:23pm Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @11:21 How long did that Stalin track run? Seemed like at least 10 minutes!
	11:24pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @11:23 It was 4:48. Maybe it seemed long compared to the 2 minute songs?
	11:25pm Androu B.: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:24 Or maybe I spaced out during all that time the track was playing. Weird!
	11:25pm Rich in Washington: don't worry. I can see the light at the end of the Bullet Train tunnel.
	11:25pm ultradamno: Like when The Minutemen started doing two minute songs and it seemed like Sister Ray
	11:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:25 Didja catch Uncle Michael's show this morning? Nothing but 1 minute songs. Fantastic. Give that man a medal.
	11:28pm ultradamno: I did not, I may have to hit that up on the archives. I do appreciate brevity.
	11:28pm ultradamno: wfmu.org...
	11:28pm Androu B.: Oh geez, this reminds me about the aftermath of the NYD earthquake in Niihata. According to satellite photos, it completely changed the landscape & shoreline around that area of Japan.
	11:29pm spodiodi: greetings, Rich!
	11:29pm Rich in Washington: ↳ spodiodi @11:29 spodiodi!
	11:30pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Death Exclamations" by "G.I.S.M." the guitarist is obviously a Sabbath fan.
	11:30pm Androu B.: ↳ Androu B. @11:28 Sorry, I think that should be "Niigata".
	11:43pm ultradamno: This makes me want to hear My Bathroom (Is A Private Kind of Place)...which seems like it should have been a songpoem, but was not.
	11:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:43 have you seen the Industrial Music doc?
	11:47pm ultradamno: I have not, I remember Hurst's episodes about it....where is it available?
	11:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Richard Nixon" by "Rodd, Teri, the M.S.R. Singers" i think that would have even made nixon blush
	🥁 11:47pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "The Mini Skirt Fad" by "Rodd Keith" hoo boy
	11:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:47 unsilencing the silent majority
	11:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:47 It used to be on Netflix. Don Bolles has a cameo in it.
	11:49pm ultradamno: Just tried to look it up on IMDb and landed on this www.imdb.com...
	11:50pm doctorjazz: Thanks, Rich, night all!
	11:51pm Rich in Washington: The one I'm thinking about is Bathtubs Over Broadway. It's really good. Don is in it, Jello Biafra and more. It's really well done.
	11:51pm coelacanth∅))): ↳ Song: "The Mini Skirt Fad" by "Rodd Keith" i'd love to see this guy perform this in my local pub so i could throw shit at him.
	11:51pm Rich in Washington: ↳ doctorjazz @11:50 Thanks, doc! See you later!
	11:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @11:51 Yours or someone elses?
	11:52pm coelacanth∅))): not shit literally
	11:53pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @11:51 he did a pretty wild electronic music album, father of ellery eskelin
	11:53pm ultradamno: Yeah, I'm on it's page now, not on Netflix. Apple, Vudu and Google play looks like www.bathtubsoverbroadway.com
	11:53pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @11:52 oh
	11:53pm coelacanth∅))): ...actually he'd be lucky to leave the bar without injury
	11:56pm tom tom the pipers son: i think the song poems were delivered in the spirit of newman's "short people"
	11:59pm Androu B.: For anyone who cares, I recently got my hands on the"Ghost World" DVD & have yet to watch it start-to-finish. I've only seen parts of it while switching channels once. You could imagine how excited I was to finally get it, since this was rthe movie that introduced Americans to the "Chang Pe Janhoo" music video.
	11:59pm tom tom the pipers son: thx rich
	11:59pm pot8o: thanks rich! have a great week everyone!
	12:00am coelacanth∅))): Thanks Rich!
	🥁 12:00am Kat in the chat: thanks Rich!
	12:00am ultradamno: ↳ Androu B. @11:59 I have a DVD of Gumnaam, that movie that part is from. It's a really good movie itself, a lot of equally odd things going on..
	🥁 12:01am Aitch: Thanks Rich!
	12:01am ultradamno: Wait, you still don't know the difference between big wood and brush, after they went to all that trouble?
	12:02am Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @12:00 As I understand, it was the movie that introduced Rock & Roll to Southeast Asia.
	12:03am Androu B.: Thanks, Rich!
	12:04am ultradamno: ↳ Androu B. @12:02 That may well be...it's sort of an Agatha Christie/Most Dangerous Game premise...
	12:05am Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @12:00 That's a fun movie. I think I have a bootleg DVD of it somewhere.
	12:06am Rich in Washington: BTW: I finally joined a part of the 21st century and bought a BluRay player.
	12:06am Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @12:04 I see, so it's a whodunnit/detective crime drama movie?
	12:06am Rich in Washington: Thanks for listening everybody!
	12:07am ultradamno: ↳ Androu B. @12:06 People invited to an island and hunted for sport, rather
	12:08am ultradamno: (so, by Christie, I mostly meant Ten Little...what they're going with now)
	12:09am coelacanth∅))): that was very nice
	12:09am Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @12:07 Sounds familiar, like a 70's made-for-TV Movie Of The Week. Wasn't there an episode of Giligan's Island that had that same story plot?
	12:11am ultradamno: Probably the finale, very dark way to end Gilligan's Island...there was TV show maybe ten year ago I can't remember the name of which I can't recall that used the device too...

The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from January 19, 2024

View Rich in Washington's profile

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

	9:04pm Robm: howdy fellow listeners
	9:05pm Rich in Washington: Hi tom tom! Hi ironybread! Hi Robm!
	🥁 9:05pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Opening Monolog" by "Peter Schickele, Douglas Tru... Great movie, B Dern suitably unhinged.
	9:06pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	9:06pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Song: "Opening Monolog" by "Peter Schickele, Douglas Tru... I just remember the fight scene with the shovels with floppy rubber blades.
	9:07pm Rich in Washington: Hi pot8o!
	9:07pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "(Special Treatment For The) Family Man" by "Tuxed... The ballad of Dan White...a favorite
	9:07pm TDK60: Hi Rich.
	9:07pm Rich in Washington: I remember begging my mom to let me skip school because Silent Running was the afternoon movie one day. Bless her.
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ TDK60 @9:07 Hey TDK60!
	9:08pm Dean: I'm not a movie person, but I did see Silent Running in the theater. It irks me that I don't remember a damn thing about it.
	9:10pm Androu B.: Evening Rich & Radio Wreckers! Yeah, Don-O mentioned Peter Schickele's passing 3 hours ago. My brother introduced me to "Silent Running" early last year, but I first heard about it from a doc video short about the making of MST3K. Now I understand how the movie's premise relates to the show.
	9:12pm Rich in Washington: There's a pretty good doc on the making of Silent Running on the yoo toobs. Shot on the real decommissioned carrier Valley Forge, which was sort of a pain in the ass.
	🥁 9:12pm Aitch: ↳ Dean @9:08 Noahs Arc, except with corporations vs a hippy
	9:14pm TDK60: I've never seen Silent Running either. 17 Pygmies - First time hearing. I think they had a sort of sister-band relation with Savage Republic.
	9:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ TDK60 @9:14 Yeah, they shared some members of SR.
	9:15pm tom tom the pipers son: apropos of nothing just got through listening to "you showed me" by the turtles a couple of times through, after listening to an episode on them on the great podcast 500 songs. the vocal break by howard kaylan in that song floors me. btw rich, i believe i showed you the link to that podcast, have you listened?
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:15 Dang, I don't think I did! Sorry!
	9:17pm Dean: I've asked this before: Was there a time when Wall of Voodoo was performing as Mur de Son? Pre-first album.
	9:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:17 not that I'm aware of. I do know they started out as a would-be film soundtrack company.
	9:19pm Dean: (Though it could have been a hoax, I was telephoned many years ago...'79? '80?...by somebody from WoV...Stan? Mark?...asking my band to join them at a show at Hong Kong Cafe or Madame Wong's. We agreed, but promptly broke up. There are flyers.)
	9:19pm Androu B.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:15 What a co-inky-dink! I just looked that song up on Secondhand Songs recently. Several covers of it show up on their list.
	9:19pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:16 it's there anyway, when you get the notion...
	9:20pm Dean: I recall either a KPFK or KROQ show featuring a Mur de Son. Saw Monitor at Beyond Baroque, I believe.
	9:20pm ultradamno: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:18 ...and from the ashes of Skulls and Eyes
	9:21pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:17 Possibly it was a Moreland brothers thing pre Stan??
	9:21pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:19 yes, that is one of those, indeed. i'll take a look
	9:22pm Dean: Entirely possible, chresti, yes. Sure wish I could revisit the broadcast.
	9:22pm ultradamno: I've heard of Mur du son, but they're Dutch, and more recent.
	9:22pm Rich in Washington: It's chresti! Hi!
	9:23pm MHLee: Hi Rich.
	9:23pm Dean: Also saw The Skulls a time or two. Damn fine.
	9:23pm Rich in Washington: Hi MHLee!
	9:23pm chresti: Hi Rich!
	9:24pm MHLee: I'm not aware if you know of the the project but the dude behind The Soft Moon passed away
	9:24pm Dean: WFMU needs to devote more airtime to Middle Class, another band like Monitor that veered from punk in productive ways.
	9:25pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:23 I remember seeing them and liking them. Beyond that have no memory of what they sounded like.
	🥁 9:25pm Kat in the chat: I forgot to say hi. Hi!
	9:26pm Rich in Washington: I would love to track down some of the more esoteric LA bands which appeared on New Wave Theatre. That show was the gateway to Monitor for me.
	9:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:25 Kat's in the chat!
	9:27pm Rich in Washington: ↳ MHLee @9:24 I just heard but I'm not super familiar with their stuff.
	9:28pm Dean: Whoo, boy, The Eyes were quite a treat.
	9:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Sleeping" by "Error" funny, this does not sound "1990"
	🥁 9:30pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:27 I didn't know The Soft Moon but I have been a Silent Servant fan for years, that came as a shock.
	9:30pm chresti: Oh, yeah!
	9:31pm ultradamno: Wet Picnic was on there a lot www.discogs.com... I have Cipher's ep, who I recall being on there, it's pretty good www.discogs.com...
	9:31pm Dean: Friend just informed me that Myra Melford's trio will play a piano store in Oakland near us in early February. I'm there.
	9:31pm Doug Schulkind: Hey, Rich!
	9:31pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Doug Schulkind @9:31 Doug! Boy, you're up late for an early riser!
	9:32pm Androu B.: ↳ Song: "Sleeping" by "Error" Interesting that this came out around the same time I was already listening to IDM & New Beat.
	9:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:32 oh that's interesting, so that wasn't really an outlier...(?)
	9:36pm Dean: OT rant. Why does the NYT do BS stories like this? "Stop Ignoring All the Mundane Miracles in Your Life "Turn your monotonous moments into monuments by taking notes of what you observe. It only takes 15 minutes a day." Not a lick of news. Pure fluff. It both bores and frightens me.
	9:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:36 i have started doing mashups (with som editing) of ny times headlines
	9:38pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Cleanliness And Order" by "Boyd Rice and Daniel M... Weeee!
	9:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:36 almost sounds like crap coming out of an AI bot.
	9:38pm Androu B.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:35 Not sure what you mean by that.
	9:38pm Ike: MROWRRRRR!!!!
	9:38pm Dean: And NON at Kelbo's...an unforgettable show.
	9:39pm pot8o: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:38 probably is
	9:39pm Dean: I don't blame AI bots. I blame humans. Their BS trains AI bots.
	9:39pm chresti: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:37 like collage?
	9:40pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:38 thought you were comparing it to similar electronic music from the same time, while i thought it was out of place for 1990
	9:43pm ironybread: This is the one and only Musicworks title in my collection, #60, "Plunderphonia & Vox" www.discogs.com...
	9:43pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @9:39 i've posted them on a couple of chat boards, more like cut ups, just running the headlines together, they're disposable
	9:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @9:39 like this.... How a Polyamorous Mom Had ‘a Big Sexual Adventure’ and Found Herself The Secret Ingredient Your Rice Krispies Treats Are MissingThe Whale Who Went AWOLI’ve Got Bedbugs! How Do I Get Out of My Lease?
	9:45pm ironybread: Musicworks are, I think, still doing the thing; last title was #137 in 2020
	9:45pm ultradamno: By the way, goddamn death dedication...Mary Weiss of Shangri La's...
	9:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @9:45 oh no
	9:46pm TDK60: Well, all three outfits were clustered on that left coast, down around L.A. SR, 17P, WoV.
	9:46pm Dean: Not being a movie-goer (see above), my favorite movies might include Barry Lyndon, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Peppermint Soda, Mr. Houlot's Holiday.
	9:46pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Rejoice In The Sun (feat. Joan Baez)" by "Peter S... I never knew about this Baez/Shickele cut.
	9:48pm ultradamno: www.rollingstone.com...
	9:49pm Androu B.: ↳ Dean @9:39 It's because the technology is more accessible now, which is not necessarily a good thing. It can be comparable to a new power tool. In the hands of a person not well-versed in computer science or a related field, it can become a risky, if not dangerous, weapon of choice, to the point where it could effectively wreak havoc on the interwebs, creating much more complex and destructive viruses than we've seen during the previous generations of the Computer Age.
	9:49pm chresti: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:44 ah perfect fun!
	9:50pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @9:49 oh thanks, not total chance, there's some editing involved
	9:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:38 did that clarify?
	9:54pm MHLee: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:27 Post-punk sometimes reminds me of nin
	9:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TDK60 @9:46 You're right. There was a loose federation known as Skull Bands that played together at one off venues as well as the more high profile joints.
	9:56pm TDK60: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:55 Franco, hi! Always available to stand up for the local talent.
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:55 Franco!
	9:58pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Rich and TDK!
	9:58pm TDK60: Although I've never much been into Baez's voice, that was a perty tune. I like some of her selections.
	9:59pm Androu B.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:40 Oh, that's true. It does have a more 80's synthpop sound. maybe they were oblivious of the fact that the musical landscape was already changing by then, or they were just intentionally rebelling against that change while simultaneously hoping to fall in with the new underground electronic scene that was emerging at that time.
	10:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @9:58 baez's voice did convey a "holier than thou" thing
	10:00pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Saturn" by "Peter Schickele" Sounds like incidental star trek ost
	10:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Androu B. @9:59 u huh, thx...
	🥁 10:01pm Aitch: ↳ MHLee @10:00 nervy
	10:06pm tom tom the pipers son: bruce dern is very good in "family plot" along with rest of cast, although not an especially good film
	🥁 10:07pm Aitch: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:06 and taught his daughter how to weird good too
	10:08pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Aitch @10:07 nice point
	10:09pm ultradamno: I LOVE Family Plot, I think it gets short shrifted for being the movie that ends Hitchcock's career....and all the masterpieces it as such followed, but it's a lot of fun.
	10:11pm TDK60: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:00 tomtom: I don't feel that. But, I was talking about the timbre of her voice, not my cuppa tea.
	10:12pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:09 ah, that's probably true, excepting certain scenes, it's better than torn curtain and probably topaz which i'm not sure i've ever seen completely through..
	10:12pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @10:11 ah, i misconstrued
	10:15pm ultradamno: Plus, there's humor in it, The Lady Vanishes is underrated too. People resist humor in Hitchcock for some reason
	10:15pm TDK60: Wait! Let me get my ear plugs....
	10:15pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Endless Blockades For The Pussyfooter" by "G.I.S.M." For some reason? IT'S FUCKING GREAT.
	🥁 10:16pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Endless Blockades For The Pussyfooter" by "G.I.S.M." Oi!
	10:17pm ultradamno: Also, really the first group to work in both metal and industrial styles (unless you count Leather Nun...which was more 70s hard rock and industrial)
	10:17pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:15 i love the interstitial bits he did for tv show, very funny
	10:18pm ultradamno: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:17 They rerun sometimes, I think on MeTV, or SyFy. Great stuff...
	10:20pm ultradamno: Relapse did a great job on those G.I.S.M records too, as they have done with the Boris and Merzbow records they've put out.
	10:22pm ironybread: Tudeo cat loves Japanese hardcore & says hi to you all
	10:23pm ultradamno: This is making me miss Schizo Sofrito
	10:24pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @10:22 Hi Tuxedo Cat!
	10:24pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "(tere their) Syphilitic Vaginas To Pieces" by "G.... who gave them syphylis
	10:25pm ultradamno: Brian Turner testimonial blog.wfmu.org... RIP Sakevi Yokoyama www.brooklynvegan.com...
	🥁 10:27pm Aitch: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:24 Sisyphus? He was into rock
	10:27pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Aitch @10:27 olo good one
	10:28pm ultradamno: I hear the president has some to share (could be why his wife is taking separate rides now)
	10:28pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @10:27 depends on what he was using to push that rock
	10:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:28 another rock
	10:29pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @10:28 Ex-president...unless you hear him tell it.
	10:30pm Dean: Sysyphus ran up that hill with no problems.
	🥁 10:30pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:28 It was the roll bit he hated
	10:34pm tom tom the pipers son: @rich: more metal than hardcore...any corrupted in your collection?
	10:37pm ultradamno: There was Friction, decidedly pre-hardcore with no wave ties, but probably Japan's first...
	10:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:34 Japanese Hardcore was very metal influenced. I few D-Beat adherents but metal was huge in Japan in the mid 80s
	10:38pm Androu B.: ↳ Song: "Explosion (Burst) Head" by "The Stalin" I think I get the gist of the title: It's supposed to be a pun on the economic term "stop gap".
	10:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:37 maybe that's why this is making me think of corrupted...
	10:42pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:37 do you know of 90's cd comp "osaka greasy truckers"?, had a band subvert blaze that i liked a lot
	10:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:42 I've never heard of that. Interesting.
	10:44pm tom tom the pipers son: www.forcedexposure.com...
	10:45pm Dean: I hear "pressing on" as "rise above."
	10:45pm Rich in Washington: I have two of those 60s Japanese Psych/Garage comps that came out in the 90s.
	10:46pm ultradamno: G.I.S.M were more metal, but like Venom and Motörhead, they were embraced by a lot of people in hardcore (Tesco Vee was a big champion of them)
	10:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:46 I remember them being pretty big back in the day.
	10:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:45 bands on "osaka..." contemporary to '94
	🥁 10:51pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Nietsche" by "The Stalin" later dude
	🥁 10:51pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Nietsche" by "The Stalin" curious place for Sharrock to turn up
	10:51pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:28 late reaction.... maybe that's why he's claiming immunity
	🥁 10:51pm Aitch: ↳ Aitch @10:51 sounds so Cali
	10:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:51 innit?
	10:53pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Nietsche" by "The Stalin" It's downright fishy
	10:56pm ultradamno: As fish albums go, maybe not up to Trout Mask Replica, but far better than "....You Can't Tuna Fish"
	11:05pm Rich in Washington: nice discordant guitar in this. Sorta makes it easier to understand why they'd want to work with Laswell and Sharrock a few years later.
	🥁 11:06pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:05 And a punker version of the Warsaw/Joy Division stuff
	11:06pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "The Warsaw Illusion" by "The Stalin" digging this one
	11:07pm doctorjazz: Hi Rich and Streamers, here for the tail end.
	11:07pm coelacanth∅))): hello Rich and all
	11:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @11:07 Hello coelacanth∅)))!
	11:08pm ultradamno: ↳ Aitch @11:06 I always kind of thought that live cut on Short Circuit indicated they might have been that punker version, pity it's not more documented
	11:09pm Rich in Washington: ↳ doctorjazz @11:07 Hi doc!
	11:10pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "オキシジェン・デストロイヤー o" by "G-Zet" fun guitar on this one too.
	11:10pm coelacanth∅))): yah
	11:14pm coelacanth∅))): this vocal reminds me of the dull, or killdozer...
	11:19pm Androu B.: Is it just on my end, or does anyone else here notice that the Accu hasn't budged an inch since Stalin's "M-16"?
	11:21pm Androu B.: ↳ Song: "堕落" by "G-Zet" OK, that's better!
	11:21pm ultradamno: ↳ Androu B. @11:19 I'm seeeing G-Zet under it
	11:23pm Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @11:21 How long did that Stalin track run? Seemed like at least 10 minutes!
	11:24pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @11:23 It was 4:48. Maybe it seemed long compared to the 2 minute songs?
	11:25pm Androu B.: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:24 Or maybe I spaced out during all that time the track was playing. Weird!
	11:25pm Rich in Washington: don't worry. I can see the light at the end of the Bullet Train tunnel.
	11:25pm ultradamno: Like when The Minutemen started doing two minute songs and it seemed like Sister Ray
	11:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:25 Didja catch Uncle Michael's show this morning? Nothing but 1 minute songs. Fantastic. Give that man a medal.
	11:28pm ultradamno: I did not, I may have to hit that up on the archives. I do appreciate brevity.
	11:28pm ultradamno: wfmu.org...
	11:28pm Androu B.: Oh geez, this reminds me about the aftermath of the NYD earthquake in Niihata. According to satellite photos, it completely changed the landscape & shoreline around that area of Japan.
	11:29pm spodiodi: greetings, Rich!
	11:29pm Rich in Washington: ↳ spodiodi @11:29 spodiodi!
	11:30pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Death Exclamations" by "G.I.S.M." the guitarist is obviously a Sabbath fan.
	11:30pm Androu B.: ↳ Androu B. @11:28 Sorry, I think that should be "Niigata".
	11:43pm ultradamno: This makes me want to hear My Bathroom (Is A Private Kind of Place)...which seems like it should have been a songpoem, but was not.
	11:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:43 have you seen the Industrial Music doc?
	11:47pm ultradamno: I have not, I remember Hurst's episodes about it....where is it available?
	11:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Richard Nixon" by "Rodd, Teri, the M.S.R. Singers" i think that would have even made nixon blush
	🥁 11:47pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "The Mini Skirt Fad" by "Rodd Keith" hoo boy
	11:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:47 unsilencing the silent majority
	11:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:47 It used to be on Netflix. Don Bolles has a cameo in it.
	11:49pm ultradamno: Just tried to look it up on IMDb and landed on this www.imdb.com...
	11:50pm doctorjazz: Thanks, Rich, night all!
	11:51pm Rich in Washington: The one I'm thinking about is Bathtubs Over Broadway. It's really good. Don is in it, Jello Biafra and more. It's really well done.
	11:51pm coelacanth∅))): ↳ Song: "The Mini Skirt Fad" by "Rodd Keith" i'd love to see this guy perform this in my local pub so i could throw shit at him.
	11:51pm Rich in Washington: ↳ doctorjazz @11:50 Thanks, doc! See you later!
	11:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @11:51 Yours or someone elses?
	11:52pm coelacanth∅))): not shit literally
	11:53pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @11:51 he did a pretty wild electronic music album, father of ellery eskelin
	11:53pm ultradamno: Yeah, I'm on it's page now, not on Netflix. Apple, Vudu and Google play looks like www.bathtubsoverbroadway.com
	11:53pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @11:52 oh
	11:53pm coelacanth∅))): ...actually he'd be lucky to leave the bar without injury
	11:56pm tom tom the pipers son: i think the song poems were delivered in the spirit of newman's "short people"
	11:59pm Androu B.: For anyone who cares, I recently got my hands on the"Ghost World" DVD & have yet to watch it start-to-finish. I've only seen parts of it while switching channels once. You could imagine how excited I was to finally get it, since this was rthe movie that introduced Americans to the "Chang Pe Janhoo" music video.
	11:59pm tom tom the pipers son: thx rich
	11:59pm pot8o: thanks rich! have a great week everyone!
	12:00am coelacanth∅))): Thanks Rich!
	🥁 12:00am Kat in the chat: thanks Rich!
	12:00am ultradamno: ↳ Androu B. @11:59 I have a DVD of Gumnaam, that movie that part is from. It's a really good movie itself, a lot of equally odd things going on..
	🥁 12:01am Aitch: Thanks Rich!
	12:01am ultradamno: Wait, you still don't know the difference between big wood and brush, after they went to all that trouble?
	12:02am Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @12:00 As I understand, it was the movie that introduced Rock & Roll to Southeast Asia.
	12:03am Androu B.: Thanks, Rich!
	12:04am ultradamno: ↳ Androu B. @12:02 That may well be...it's sort of an Agatha Christie/Most Dangerous Game premise...
	12:05am Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @12:00 That's a fun movie. I think I have a bootleg DVD of it somewhere.
	12:06am Rich in Washington: BTW: I finally joined a part of the 21st century and bought a BluRay player.
	12:06am Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @12:04 I see, so it's a whodunnit/detective crime drama movie?
	12:06am Rich in Washington: Thanks for listening everybody!
	12:07am ultradamno: ↳ Androu B. @12:06 People invited to an island and hunted for sport, rather
	12:08am ultradamno: (so, by Christie, I mostly meant Ten Little...what they're going with now)
	12:09am coelacanth∅))): that was very nice
	12:09am Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @12:07 Sounds familiar, like a 70's made-for-TV Movie Of The Week. Wasn't there an episode of Giligan's Island that had that same story plot?
	12:11am ultradamno: Probably the finale, very dark way to end Gilligan's Island...there was TV show maybe ten year ago I can't remember the name of which I can't recall that used the device too...
