UFO people are so full of shit. NASA, too. Every time they claim to be receiving “transmissions from outer space”, it’s always a recording of some indecipherable robot noise or fuzzy verbal gibberish. I, personally, feel that outer space people would be far more sensible than that. Guitars aren’t exclusive to Earth, right? They must have bands.
Well, in my little world, I’d say satellite transmissions from another galaxy would sound more like Big Flying J than some Short Circuit, Robbie the Robot-type shit. Yeah, Big Flying J has lots of beeps and blips in their music, but they also have acoustic guitars double dutching the line between classical strumming and punk rock pounding, the occasional Melvins/Boredoms-induced noise interlude, and vocals that sound like they’re being sung by a few people.
According to the random email they sent me, the music will take all the joy out of my life if I listen to it. Trust me: I’ve listened to it a few times. I still have joy in my life, despite the less-than-sugar-coated lyrics of tunes like "Cut, The Making", "Four Years", and "'A' Is For Knife". Granted, the sound quality is about as low-tech as you can get, but I didn’t really care. The music is weird and-- lyrics aside-- fun as hell.
SEND 'EM A FEW BUCKS FOR THE ALBUM. THEY ALSO NEED BEER. THE URL IS HERE.
