Gary Zon and his band, Dismantled, have signed to record labels Metropolis and Dependent. The industial band is on a nationwide tour
that includes more than 20 shows. Zone hopes to ‘resuscitate’ the industrial music scene with the tour.
MUSIC
continued from page 5
"Jimmy Eat World is a great,
hard-working band and they deserve
their success, every bit of it," Dis
mantled's keytar player "Loud" Chris
DeMarcus said.
Meanwhile, Adrian White, the
band's live drummer, who has toured
with the likes of Delirium and Front
Line Assembly, said that right
now, among other things, he is
listening to lots of Coldplay, Muse
and The Stills.
After the tour, Zon hopes to start
practicing and performing with his
new band, Aerodrone, a more
progressive project that will reflect
the diversity of its individual mem
bers and be completely separate
from Dismantled.
"It's going to be something that's
really poppy and for a totally different
crowd than what I'm playing to now,"
he said. "It will appeal to people who
listen to indie rock, pop rock, and the
mainstream, but it will have a hidden
message behind it."
For more information about Dis
mantled, the tour, and future projects,

REVIEW
continued from page 5
his last film, "Bowling for Columbine."
He works at his best when he has
something specific to attack, such as
the major automotive companies in
"Roger & Me," so with the current Bush
administration as his target Moore puts
forth some virtuoso work. He only oc
casionally slips into the muddled and
disjointed lack of focus which afflicted
"Columbine," as when he discusses
the Bush family's ties to Saudi Arabia.
It would be impossible to discuss
the film without going into its politics
and the controversy surrounding its
accuracy. Moore takes quotes out of
context, he makes brash generaliza
tions and he leaves innuendoes to do
much of his work. The film can in fact
be seen as a powerful political smear
ad, catching politicians in unflattering
poses and throwing every possible ac
cusation at them.
Moore is often correct in his asser
tions (his accuracy can be fairly well
judged by which claims conservative
critics have not bothered to challenge,
such as that Bush is cutting war veter
an services and soldiers pay at the
same time he is sending more soldiers
off to die) and his falsehoods are his
right to make. It is his movie, and any
audience unwilling to check the accu
racy of what they are told deserves to
be lied to. Those interested in the
falsehoods and deceptions within the
film can certainly find ample infor
mation floating around.
To Moore's critics, I offer another
quote from Godard: 'The best way to
criticize a movie is to make another
one " I think they will have trouble mak
ing a film as good as "Fahrenheit 9/11."

CRUMB

pieces are just statements of who
those composers are."
In addition to the new composi
tions, "Awakening" and "September
Elegy," the works of Crumb's son
David, also will be played. The
younger Crumb, an assistant profes
sor of composition and theory at the
University, is carrying on the musical
tradition of his family. George
Crumb's parents were both musi
cians. 11 is daughter, Ann, is an accom
plished Broadway singer.
But audiences should be fore
warned: Neither of the Crumbs'
works nor any of the 13 new
compositions are toe-tapping pieces.
They are written to explore the bound
aries of the medium, the instruments,
the performers and the audience.
"One must listen to the work with
a completely open mind and ears so
that you explore the fullness of the
musical expression," said Robert Kyr,
the Symposium director and founder,
as well as a professor of composition
and theory at the University of Ore
gon. Kyr, once a student of Crumb's,
hopes to expose more people to
Crumb's work as well as other con
temporary composers.
"I hope that listeners have an
unforgettable musical experience
with the music of an American
master composer," Kyr said.
....“"“••1T111fllflrniinni1ITOOTinfmmrrnilMnnfflMliniM^
But, he acknowledges a debt to a
forefather in the field and the festi
val's namesake. "There isn't a com
poser in the world who hasn't been
influenced by Bach."
The Composers Symposium of the
Oregon Bach Festival takes place Friday,
July 2, 2 p.m. and Saturday, July 3, 10
a.m. and 2 p.m. at Beall Concert Hall.
Tickets are $12 for adults, $8 for stu
dents and seniors. For more informa
tion about the Oregon Bach Festival, go

More information about George
Crumb is available in a special exhibit
in the music section on the third floor
of Knight Library.
