I have no grasp of the concept of musical theory. I know that octaves and notes and progressions and measures exist, but exactly how to concoct an amalgamation of elements that result in something considered good music escapes me. I dont even know what constitutes good musicianship. I like what I like; I react to the good shit, but in this context good becomes subjective, does it not (hence the quotation marks)?++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Do the boys behind Ear Venom (opening act at last nights Wall of Sound showcase at the Rendezvous) have a mastery of the theory behind music? Who knows. I for one sure dont. In fact- Im obviously not an expert on the subject- I dont know that the sounds they produce would even qualify as music. Theres no melody (at least, nothing you could hum along to, the dude next to me so astutely pointed out); not really any sort of discernable form. But who cares, cause man is that shit good.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Imagine, if you will: two tall, slender young men, both with foppish hairdos and faded skinny jeans, standing behind ironing boards upon which are perched dinged-up suitcases housing what one can only assume are electrical configurations that would frazzle the mind of a layman. The performance? Just noise- moanings into what looked like handmade CB radios; a drumstick stuck between the strings and neck of a guitar being pounded upon; instruments being blown on, banged on the legs of the ironing boards, and smacked on surfaces; buzzing noises galore It sounds horrible, I know, but I was enthralled. At one point, I paused to take stock of the sensory overload and noticed my heart rate and breathing were both accelerated, and the hairs on my neck were bristling. Hows that for a visceral reaction?++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Its been selling faster than we expected, and we currently only have around a quarter of our stock left - so we thought we'd better you all know that if you want a copy then now would be a good time to pick one up! If you buy it from the link above then you're buying it direct from us, the label aren't taking a cut - so its a bit like Fair Trade for struggling musicians.
International mail-order is available, just follow the instructions.
Thank you very much, and sorry for making a mess of your profile. If its any kind of consolation, we don't have a MySpace bot, so I'm leaving these comments the old fashioned way. Three -and-a-half thousand of them. My life is so exciting.
