Before Branca went completely down the
“I'm a serious composer” avenue. He produced a couple of near
flawless Avant rock miesterwerks of the No Wave era. A kind of
proto-post rock without the melancholia. The first lesson of this
ground-breaking style was “Lesson No.1 For Electric Guitar”. A
definite statement of intent in a short constructed composition that
replaces orchestra with a dissonant 'Rock' ensemble, that more than
likely included at least two future members of Sonic Youth.The
drumming is the same snareless pounding found in The Static and The
Theoretical Girls. B-side, “Dissonance”, is as you'd expect, an
exercise in Guitar Dissonance,as Glenn explores the more noisy side
of his personality.
A true innovator in modern
composition,and few of his future lengthier works can fail to wilt in
comparison to the urgency,excitement, and raw power of his early
ensemble pieces for electric guitar.
Tracklist:
1. Lesson No.1 For Electric Guitar 8:12
2. Dissonance 11:40
