Quinn Boys II and Pandora
October 7, 2005 #Quinn Boys II just came up in a rotation of songs generated for me by Pandora by giving them a favorite artist as Captain Beefheart. It is by far the best Jandek tune I've heard with messy but rhythmic drums and a strangely compelling simple melody, very un-jarring lyrics. I must admit that a Red Hot Chili Peppers tune off of Californication also caught my ears, especially the overfuzzed guitar solo: Emit Remmus. I've also heard some VU, Pere Ubu, Meat Puppets, Hendrix, Banshees, Stooges, Alex Chilton and GBV, enjoyable all.
