Jandek – "Three Movements" (Corwood Industries – CORWOOD 0868) 2024


 

Just look at those icebergs. An unavoidable symbol of  the impending doom that threatens even the POTUS...what a despicable fucking bastard that total cunt is. He should be sliced up on an inverted crucifix and fed to the sharks, if there are any left......you total fucking cunt....and if you voted for it, you deserve the horrible death we are all going to have.
Yeah, you guessed it, i'm pissed, as in drunk, but also also angry. Siting, buck fucking, naked in front of of a screen, in 37 degrees......Celsius Heat,.... writing about a tone deaf recluse who seems not to be able to play any instrument, yet has a worldwide following who seem to worship his every move.
I have never really listened to the whole of an Jandek album, after about 2001,but somehow i found myself wallowing in a post alcoholic malaise and this came on my computer. It all made perfect sense.,and i listened attentively to all of the mother-fucker.
This is a solo Jandek album, yet it feels and sounds like any other spontaneous musical happening that would have evolved from any of  his many collaborations .....in this shows he don't need 'em.
The title promises us three movements, yet this is the first time i can recall that there were few ,if any, actual musical Bowell Movements, before it was time to clean up.
If you've never heard Jandek before, then congratulations, but if this is your first exposure to the ginger creep himself, then I figure you may enjoy the sheer wrongness of it all. and I hope you escape the planet before we all die in flames, after being baked in skin cancer,and starving from lack of food.
Drill Baby DRILL!

Tracklist:

First Movement (23:13)
Second Movement (12:58

Jandek – "Denver Friday" (Corwood Industries – CORWOOD 0849) 2021


Jandek whips out the Bass again, as he and fellow torturers recreate that moment when country legend Denver, J, hit the side of a mountain, raining down debris on the Rocky mountain lowlands. slicing up some Hill Billies in the process.
This one reminds me somewhat of of that Father Yod ,Ya Ho Wha 13 stuff. Free Rock for Hippies high on God and Blue Sunshine cooked up in the farm duck pond.
If Sky Saxon was on this album It could have made it onto the Top 50 lost Psych freakout LP's of all time that you must hear before you die list, in Rolling Stone magazine......a magazine I have genuinely NEVER read, or even touched, in my lifetime so far.
Recorded at The Bug Theater in 2008,before Jandek's alleged death...for those who wish to know.
I think Sky Saxon was still alive then.So no excuses there.
Although,there have been sightings, as yet unconfirmed, of a pale Ginger ghost-like cowboy, dressed in black,in the company of a former member of the Seeds, and a Sasquatch munching down a turn of the century Quarter-Pounder, at a stall selling shards of wreckage from John Denver's possible suicide dive as a sideline.
The signed pieces apparently appear genuine......I know because Donald J.Trump has one.Displayed in an obscure part of his dirty Oval Orifice.
