[music, artists] September 2, 2008 at 10:28:00 PM CEST Deconstructing the desert The things we put out there are enough for people to make out of it what they want to, to hear the lyrics or wordplay how they want to, or the inflection in tone or the guitar lick, you know, it all means something different to everybody, which is what’s so wonderful about it. It’s not force feeding anything, per se. That’s also why I don’t like to make things too well-constructed - I like deconstruction. It allows everyone’s individual brain to reassemble this - some assembly required. And you get to make it your own that way. So, bands that construct pieces of music that are so well put together that you can enjoy them for their craft, for sure - it’s like furniture or a nice building that makes sense - but my music is more like furniture that is put together with different pieces, different eras. My buildings are like adobe because there are no right angles - that’s just how I like things. That’s my particular environ. Songs on the record, that’s what they are. They’re provisions. You’re providing provisions. With any luck, they are pro visions. It all made sense somehow on that day.
Howe Gelb whose band Giant Sand has a new album out called proVISIONS in an interview over at The Aquarium Drunkard. There is also a mp3 link to a song from the album there. Increment of Love. A Howish title and the relaxed Howish vibe. Great stuff as always. The Danish gang is delivering the goods again. |
