1986 Housekeeping
Blurt
Poppycock
Genre: Experimental Post-Rock
2.75 out of 5
Alternating “Opium!” with “A poppycock!” for four minutes amidst improvisational sax solos isn’t enough to bring me around to Blurt’s style of anti-music.
I almost repeated the story of Yeast Infection’s one show at The Dive in 1985 but you can just read that here: http://septenary.blogspot.com/search/label/Blurt.
This album isn’t doing anything more for me. Go away, Blurt.
Ok. That’s not entirely fair. Take Ted Milton’s poems out of this and the minimalist, repetitive rhythms actually work for me at times. Case in Point: “Domain of Dreams”.
