Prste and Whetstone, captured in a time Harped Twilight Zone hith the Bard Scene Illyria Duke Orsino s palace. The Duke lounges on a luxurious couch, sighing in a deep fit of melancholy DUKE: Where are my fools1 (Enter two clowns, PESTE and WHETSTONE, hearing a heavy burthen of records and a phonograph) PESTE: At your service, your Grumpincss For the edification of your musical sensibilities, we have brought you exciting new music from Hngland and America After all. you can't goon listening lo "Hey Ho The Wind And The Ram" the rest of your life May we have leave to play these albums for you? DUKE: My lady Olivia requites not my passion If music be the food of love, play on. Give me excess of it - that, surfeiting, the appetite may sicken and so die. die. (lie1 (from "12th Night") WHETSTONE: (Aside to PESTE) Jesus, he's in a lousy mood. Let's start off with Bloody Nonsense He'll get a kick outta that one PESTE: Good idea DUKE: What is't thou art whispering, sirrah9 WHETSTONE: Nothing, my lord DUKE: Nothing will come of nothing U‘t the music begin (The finds put on JAZZ BUTCHER’S Bloody Nimsense (Big Time Records) These songs. tho‘ render'd in styles strange and fantastical to these cars, do bring mirth to my soul (from "King tear) WHETSTONE: it's probably the most eclectic album released since the Beatles' White Album, Duke There s pop. garage-rock, flunk, ia/z. avam garde thrash, blues — and "The Devil Is My Friend " has gotta be the funniest parody of Charlie Daniels you'ii ever hear PESTE: Bui notice the lone of menace that underscores these songs, your Loftimn. That certain snide confidence in their musical adeptnexs. that snotty lack of concern for accep tance One can clearly discern a punk rock mentality working at the heart of their musicianship WHETSTONE: Your perspicacity never fails lo amaze me. Peste PESTE: Thank you, my gentle Whetstone. DUKE: ! prythee. sweet fools, play me more (They pm on YO LA TENGO's Ride The Tiger (Coyote Records) 'Tis not so mirthful now as it was before. Yet. there m a certain sad sweetness to it. mcthmks. which soothes the mind like a gentle wind that quivers the redded leaves <m grey Autumn days PESTE: One should mu be poetic till one has become wise, nuncle But you're right — it's perfect listening for grey, rainy days. Laid back, yet moody It's not a great album, mind you, hut there is potential in this band to make a great album This record gets better with repeated listenings, although sometimes DUKE: Peace, fool. Play on. (The fools pla\ CAMPER VAN BEETHOVAN’s Camper Van Beethovan II ami III I Pitch A Tent Records) Ha. ha. ha’ Well Aw This music abates the tempest tn my spleen, and do persuade these frowns into smiles WHETSTONE: We knew you’d like it. your Soberness These guys have their feet planted firmly in 80s rock n' roll, but their hearts arc stuck in the SOs and their brains in outer space Just listen to a song like “ZZ Top Goes To Egypt” — sheer inspired lunacy, it is DIKE: Ah. but merriment befits not a man in love Play me something to darken this sudden cheer, good fools PESTE: This will do more than darken your cheer, my lord (Hr puis on SONIC YOUTH « Eval (SST Records) DUKE: Enough' No more, or give me cars of steel' Tis a sound that would unhinge the very stars (from "Trotlus and Crrssida'') O. how sour music is when lime is broke and no proportion kept Call you this music, fools'.’ If so. 'tjs music most foul, strange and unnatural (from Richard III) PESTE: As in the best it is. sir You're really missing the point death rock is a new genre that explores the very darkest region of the human soul with relentless conviction Do you have any idea w hat kind of artistic commitment it takes to utter ly reduce human existence to violence, lust, despair and death' WHETSTONE: Yes but why. Pestc? Just so they can make people wet their pants'' PESTE: Shut up. you fool Sonic Youth, my liege, is the ultimate death rock group Nest to them even Joy Division sounds like Debbie Boone Listen to the feedback and dissonance of that guitar' Why it’s nothing levs than the aural representation of Picasso's Guernica. DL'KE: No more. I say! Cease that unholy noise, or I shall wind up the music of thy screams upon the rack with mine ow n hands (PESTE sulkily turns the phonograph off Hamlet) And now, to my chamber I will retire. To sleep, perchance to dream of my fair Olo ia (Exit DUKE) PESTE: There is no pleasing iitai man WHETSTONE:: Let's go down to the Black Friar's Tavern and have a few brews with Guildemstcrn and Re.sene rant/ PKSTK: Sure, what the hell.
