Pitchfork Synechdoche #1
By Joey on June 18, 2010 in main
Here is where i will convey my excitement for the upcoming pitchfork music fest by using one band a night to represent the whole ordeal. Gonna start with the band "why?" who pick up their instruments Saturday sometime.
Why did i pick why? Was it so i can make annoying puns throughout this review like thing? No, it is because Yoni Wolf, the lead dude, has lyrical prose to match poets of old, and damn catchy music to go along with it. I can't count the number of ideas i've wanted to steal and copyright them into a song of my own. Whether it is the baseline or guitar riff or time signature, there is a lot of good stuff. The material that I am most wanting to hear in person is anything off of oaklandazulasylum (yes it is one word) or alopecia. Alopecia i would say is yoni's Mona lisa, though oak's close.
So, If anyone ever answers my opener, "do you like music?" with no, why, I may just have to take them to see why why? is so awesome at pitchfork.
