now if someone can only dig up footage of Mars...

haha i love it

Lunch was innovative, the distinctive thing about Lydia is the fact that her personality is her art, no matter what the medium, you feel as if you know her very intimately. she has the confessional quality of Anne Sexton or Sylvia Plath. as far as atonality, in western classical it was becoming more common, however rock music as anyone knows is not classical music,but i will say Jimi Hendrix was an earlier pioneer of atonality,Lou Reed jumped on the bandwagon a little late to claim full credit

Btw particularly in Lunch's case it seems she named the same song something else and played over and over again, is this what you call dissonance?

I was talking about dissonance.

No wave still sounds pretty distinct from any of those releases you mentioned.

People who claim no-wave was something new, don't know anything about rock and music history in general. Black Angel's Death Song - VU -1967 Negativland - NEU! - 1971 Metal Machine Music - Lou Reed- 1975

I'm aware of the 20the century's focus on increasing dissonance and atonality, but I was speaking from a rock context. Generally electric guitar rock up until then, if I'm not mistaking, was pretty consonant.

Dissonance is earlier my friend since the beginning of the 20th century. Wake up you can even find early examples in the youtube. These people created nothing new.

Really amazing for the late 70s. People think dissonance in rock is a new thing...

She had a sweet no wave band...That's all that's good about her...And the Jerks aren't even the best no wave band of that era...Suicide and DNA surpass the Jerks in many ways...Lunch's personality SCREAMS look how different, apathetic and counter-culture I am...It gets very old after 30 years

I never even knew footage survived. If only we had something comparable today to shake up the dreary music scene and send the dull industry hacks screaming to the exit.

no,no wave. no, post punk.

this is orphans

Other way around, bro.

made me wanna dance!

First wave punk was artists and musicians pretending to be dumb thugs. No Wave was dumb thugs pretending to be artists and musicians.

Wait where's the rest?

Queen of Siam was great!

exactly, tool. dissonance on purpose

Equivalent to fingernails on a chalkboard.

i def enjoy teenage jesus and the jerks then her solo works, even the stuff she does/did with thirgwell.

lydia lunch was at her best with teenage jesus (queen of siam was pretty cool too)- also, she could give some mean head, as evidenced in kern's right side of my brain

this guy plays his bass like he's making bread with it
