Fun Stuff > BAND
If only, if only...

John Zorn - Naked City - The noisy bits are nothing that I didn't hear delivered with more panache on Napalm Death's Scum, and the rest of it is made up of ultra-cheesy compositions and attempts to ruin great songs.

That's the reason why Zorn is described as Napalm Death playing Jazz. I think it's some of the Avant Jazz and anti-snob music around. And the reason why I want to hear JazzGrind bands.

Yes ditto on the "i don'test get Pink Floyd, Belle & Sebastian, and The Rolling Stones" cept I don't even wanna think about what kinda person i'd be if I liked the Rolling Stones **shudder**

Meh, I still don't see why I should see it as having anything past the novelty value though. Where's the statement? I expected this guy to be a composer.
Robbo:
Well, that's no the focus of his solo and Naked City stuff as far as I'm aware. Those are for his chaotic turn on a dime Jazz. I think he's done some film and modern classical stuff. Not arsed to look right now.
As for why, because it's good music, but it feels more focused towards Metal fans and such fans. Who seem ignored by Jazz even though it's one of the key stones.
Or whatever, I still dont see why I should see anything in Indie.

I am a metal fan too, and a jazz fan in a more vague sense (haven't bought many jazz albums yet). That said I must admit that I haven't heard any of his other albums so I'll keep my eyes peeled for his "modern classical" work.
As for indie music, for me it depends on where one looks. There is a lot of "indie pop" music around these days that just has the one static beat and self-indulgent vocals. I'm not into that kind of thing I must admit.
