People currently trying to "push things forward," especially with guitar music, bore the hell out of me. Am I a contrarian for the sake of the contrary? I just like the tone of a clean guitar with some spring reverb. Good chord progressions. Jazz chords. Played in interesting ways. Maybe with some fucked up effects in the background.
I mean, after a certain point there wasnt anything "new" that could be done with the piano...but rather how they composed their songs on it. That is what seperated people pushings "songs" forward...their arrangements.
I feel the same with guitar music...and even with bands like sonic youth...who in my opinion were the last to push things forward and usher the guitar into the "nostalgiac" age. What else can you do with it without ripping someone off in terms of "tone" and "effects" and style.
Go buy that lame ass Moog guitar or something?
And electronic music is hardly pushing things forward either...
Silver Apples were doing the radiohead thing 30 years before radiohead...
and noise is noise is noise.
I'm going to go hide while shit is thrown at me by you angry mobs...cya
