STYX DEGREES OF SEPARATION

Dennis De Young, co-founder of the "rock" band Styx is suing his former bandmates over misuse of the band's name and trademark.

DeYoung calls his decision to sue former partners Tommy Shaw, James Young and Chuck Panozzo "the most painful decision" of his career aside from that time he was forced to cut 12 minutes from a guitar solo.

DeYoung was one of the band's founders 35 years ago and wrote and sang most of the group's hits, including "Lady," "Babe," "Lady-Babe," and "Bady-Labe."

He says a partnership deal that was renewed in 1990 by him, Shaw, Young, Panozzo and Panozzo's brother, John, required the agreement of all five on all matters concerning the band and its trademark. Tragically, John Panozzo died in 1996 while attempting a falsetto seven octaves above high C.

DeYoung joined the 1997 Styx reunion tour but asked the others to delay their 1999 tour because he was suffering side effects resulting from 29 years of art-rock.

My Daddy was was an ultralight.............

Plentiful Sandhill Cranes Blaze Trail for Rare Relatives
By ELIZABETH STANTON FOR NYT 10/24/00

Twelve young sandhill cranes and an equal number of biologists and wildlife specialists are on their way to completing the longest human-led bird migration yet, over 1,250 miles from Wisconsin to Florida.

The humans are teaching the cranes, born in captivity, to migrate in hope that they can use the same route and training process on their endangered cousins, the whooping crane, next year.

At least nine other human-led migrations have been tried with other species, including trumpeter swans and Canada geese. Large water birds, like geese and cranes, need to be led on their first flight south by their parents so they can memorize the landmarks. But these birds do not have parents that have migrated.

So, in the parents' stead is Joe Duff, one of the project designers and the pilot of a yellow ultralight plane propelled by an engine and a propeller, which is covered with a bird guard.

The birds regard this single-seater as their leader. Kept aloft by its large wings that resemble those of a hang glider, the ultralight craft can fly up to 35 miles an hour. Flying about two hours a day, the birds can cover 50 to 75 miles, but travel time and distance depends on the cranes' energy and the weather.

To signal flight time, Mr. Duff, dressed in a baggy gray drawstring flight suit to disguise his human features, starts the engine and plays a tape of adult crane calls off the tail of the plane.

When all goes well, and it generally has, the cranes follow his lead and soar behind him in a V-formation off the large white wings until they reach the next stop.

"We just have to get up every morning and see," Mr. Duff said. "Some days are beautiful and others we have the fog and winds to battle. But once we are up there, the sights are incredible and it is just a matter of a slow climb to get there."

The entourage left Necedah National Wildlife Refuge in central Wisconsin on Oct. 3 and the caravan of biologists, wildlife experts and veterinarians expect to arrive in early November at Chassohowitzka National Wildlife Refuge, along the Gulf of Mexico, in Florida.

The human support group, traveling by land and by air, will make about 24 stops.

Joan Guilfoyle, a spokeswoman for the Fish and Wildlife Service, said the sandhill cranes were selected for the experimental migration because of their large numbers, with an estimated population in the United States of 650,000. That was not always the case: in the 1930's there were as few as 25 breeding pairs, but the population rebounded in the 1970's and has flourished.

The whooping crane has not done as well. In 1865, its numbers were estimated at 700 to 1,400, but in the 1930's the birds began to disappear, and hit a low of 16 migrating birds in 1941. Since then, the population has gradually increased, to about 400 today, but only about 188 of these are wild, migrating from Canada to Texas for the winter.

The goal of the experimental migration is to train birds born in captivity to survive in the wild and to make the annual migration, adding another flock of migrating birds.

"The depletion of our nation's wetlands and the early hunting of these birds has resulted in their endangered status," Ms. Guilfoyle said, "and now we have a chance to bring experts together to determine how to create a second migratory group."

Raised to test the route for their crane cousins, the sandhills began training in late May. Dr. Daniel Sprague, a biologist, played ultralight motor sounds and the parental brood call to the chicks 24 hours before they were hatched. For the next few weeks, Dr. Sprague continued to acclimate the cranes to engine noises and the ultralight by playing recordings of adult cranes and feeding them from an outstretched crane puppet as he circled their pen, eventually getting them to follow the plane.

The project, expected to cost about $850,000 this year, is financed by the Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership, a consortium of public and private agencies.

Operation Migration is one of the private groups working with the partnership. Bill Lishman and Mr. Duff founded the nonprofit group in 1994 after pioneering the human-led migration technique with Canada geese. Plans are on track for next year's effort with the whooping cranes.

"If this happens, it will be amazing because these birds don't have a negative side," Mr. Lishman said. "They have never been a hugely populated species so they won't inundate an area or overpopulate it and we will be on the road to reintroducing an element of nature that we forced out."

Naked Came the Really Strange Interiors By JOHN LELAND for NYT 10/19/00

JUSTIN JORGENSEN was visiting the office of a friend who works in the online pornography business last year, and he was appalled by what he saw. Mr. Jorgensen, 25, is not easily shocked, but there was something profoundly unsettling in the amateur photographs.

Those drapes! That wall clock! The laundry on the bed!

The naked guy in the foreground was one thing, but the stuffed marlin on the wall was scandalous.

Because the transgressions were so shocking, and because he had a lot of time on his hands, Mr. Jorgensen, an interior designer, decided to do something about it. He created Obscene Interiors, a Web page that set its sights on what to him was the truly offensive side of the pornography world. Which is to say, the décor.

Culling pictures from gay pornography sites, he electronically blotted over the naked bodies to remove all taint of sexuality and called viewers' attention to the nasty bits: the clashing light switch plate, the stereo speaker used as a shelf, the pile of magazines splayed on the floor.

The doctored photos may be in wildly bad taste, but they are not smutty, nor does the site provide links to any real pornography. In the one instance in which the silhouette was suggestive, Mr. Jorgensen altered the image digitally to remove the suggestion.

Mr. Jorgensen and another interior designer, who uses the name Kyle B. to avoid trouble at work, added snippy comments in the margins. Last December, Mr. Jorgensen put the results on his design-themed site on the Internet, Justinspace.com. The pictures get about 1,400 hits a day, he said.

By its authors' lights, the site provides a critique whose time has come. To paraphrase Justice Potter Stewart's famous remark about obscenity, Mr. Jorgensen may not be able to define it, but he knows an obscene interior when he sees it.

"If someone's going to go out to a nightclub or a party, they get all dolled up," said Mr. Jorgensen, who works as a designer for theme parks. "Yet, here people are taking pictures of themselves in the nude and they don't bother even cleaning up a little or vacuuming."

Kyle B, who saw only the altered images, likened the results to photos from a "crime scene, with a chalk outline" where the body should be.

The crimes are manifold. Mr. Jorgensen began compiling a list of recurring offenses. "My biggest pet peeve is people putting lamps on top of speakers," he said. "I don't know why this is happening all the time. It really concerns me."

The worst crimes, predictably, are those of ego. Just as amateur pornography subjects flaunt their bodies, flaws and all, they appear equally unself-conscious about their homes. "It's like some sort of weird self- delusion that people are only going to look at them, and not pay attention to the trash on the floor behind them," Mr. Jorgensen said.

Mr. Jorgensen himself lives and works in a boxy, kitsch-filled apartment in Burbank, Calif., amid Ikea furnishings and housewares from Target's Michael Graves collection. In his work area, he has a stack of magazines on the floor and a pile of CD's on the speaker of his stereo. He is, in other words, but one digital alteration away from making it onto his own Web site. "I know, I know," he said with a laugh. "I think there's elements of all these interiors in almost everyone's home."

In her book "Sex and Real Estate: Why We Love Houses" Prof. Marjorie Garber of Harvard contends that housing has become "a form of yuppie pornography," the new object of erotic desire. Obscene Interiors is a reminder that those basic desires, once exposed, can be nothing short of indecent.

This Just in ?
NO THIS IS NOT INDEX MAGAZINE!

Harmony Korine on David Letterman October 17, 1997
LETTERMAN: Our next guest garnered both shock and praise as the screenwriter of the controversial motion picture "Kids." Now he is making his directorial debut with the film "Gummo" which opened today. Here's Harmony Korine. Harmony, come on out. (Harmony Korine enters, is greeted by Dave and sits down.)
LETTERMAN: Welcome back to the show. We haven't seen you in a couple of years. I guess you were here when "Kids" came out, weren't ya?
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: Yeah. Did you have a nice time that night?
KORINE: Yeah, it was real -- it was good. Yeah, I had fun.
LETTERMAN: But it's been a long time since you came back
. KORINE: Yeah. It was like two years.
LETTERMAN: Yeah, but did you want to come back in the meantime? Did you ever find yourself saying, "Gee, I'd like to go back and see Dave?"
KORINE: Oh, yeah, yeah.
LETTERMAN: Well, what happened?
KORINE: Well, this one night I really was thinking about that.
LETTERMAN: Really? Well, that's good.
KORINE: It was neat.
LETTERMAN: You know, I saw your film "Gummo."
KORINE: Oh, yeah.
LETTERMAN: My, that's an interesting piece of work that "Gummo."
KORINE: thanks.
LETTERMAN: What does "Gummo" mean as the title?
KORINE: Well, "Gummo" was the fifth Marks Brother.
LETTERMAN: Can you name all the Marks Brothers?
KORINE: Yeah, but well...
LETTERMAN: Well, let's go.
KORINE: All right. Well, you have Zeppo, Harpo.
LETTERMAN: Zeppo, Harpo, Chico.
KORINE: Obviously Groucho. It's really pronounced "Chico," because he liked to chase chicks. He also liked to gamble, and when he would play golf he would gamble.
LETTERMAN: So are you a big fan of the Marks Brothers?
KORINE: Yeah, but "Gummo" quit because he liked to wear women's clothes.
LETTERMAN: Is that right? He quit the group, "Gummo" did?
KORINE: Yeah, because he wanted to sell cardboard boxes, but the movie is not about him or nothing.
LETTERMAN: The movie has nothing to do with "Gummo." It's just somebody that you liked, you admired, and you named the film "Gummo"?
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: All right. Why don't you tell people what the movie is about. Is it autobiographical in any sense?
KORINE: Not really. It's just more like about specific scenes.
LETTERMAN: Specific scenes from your childhood, from your upbringing?
KORINE: Well, some of them, but not really. It's just more like...
LETTERMAN: All right. Well, now, let me interrupt you right there, because I've seen the film. If you can, give us an example of a scene that represents your upbringing and an example of a scene that has nothing to do with your upbringing. I'd just like to know what kind of a guy I'm dealing with here.
KORINE: Okay.
LETTERMAN: Fair enough?
KORINE: Yeah, that's fair. I guess I used to eat spaghetti in my bath while I would take baths.
LETTERMAN: All right, yeah, that's a scene now. You're in the bath tub and you've got one of those things across the tub.
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: And you're eating spaghetti; you're eating dinner.
KORINE: Also, if you notice in that scene there's a piece of bacon taped on the wall (laughter).
LETTERMAN: No, I didn't. I'll have to load that back up.
KORINE: That's my favorite part.
LETTERMAN: I'll have to freeze it and look for the bacon.
LETTERMAN: Now, when you were a kid did you tape bacon on the wall while you had your spaghetti dinner in the bath?
KORINE: I personally like it. Well, bacon is my aesthetic, essentially.
LETTERMAN: I'm sorry. Bacon is your what?
KORINE: Well, as far as it being humorous, taped bacon, It's just something I really get excited about it.
LETTERMAN: I'll tell ya something. This is exactly why we don't need Arnold Schwarznegger. We don't need him. We don't want him.
KORINE: Yeah. Once I met Arnold Schwarznegger.
LETTERMAN: Yeah. Nice man.
(Korine shrugs his shoulders.)
KORINE: I'm gonna, I'm gonna...
LETTERMAN: Now wait a minute. Wait a minute. We're not done. I want to follow up on this. Now, that's an example of something that did happen in your life. Now, give us an example of something in your film that is in no way connected to reality as you know it (laughter).
KORINE: Okay. For instance, the movie starts with a dog that's impaled on a satellite on someone's house.
LETTERMAN: A satellite dish antenna?
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: But that's after like a tornado?
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: Well, that could have happened. That happens all the time, you know, like cows flying through the air and stuff.
KORINE: Yeah, but...
LETTERMAN: It might have happened.
KORINE: Well, see what happened was, I ride unicycles.
LETTERMAN: No, you don't.
KORINE: I swear. Well...
LETTERMAN: No, you don't.
KORINE: Okay, so the first time in my life I was riding one down a dirt road, and I saw the dog when we put in the satellite dish, I saw it.
LETTERMAN: All right. We'll come back to that later. You know, when you go to the Gap, they'll put cuffs right on those pants. They won't charge you like a nickel extra. (Camera focuses on ten-inch pant cuffs and shoes with no socks and audience cracks up.)
KORINE: I'm not -- I don't like that company.
LETTERMAN: No, you're fine, you're fine. Just take it easy.
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: Tell me about the cast in the film. It's an interesting collection of thespians you have selected.
KORINE: Yes. Well, my big influence is once I saw -- when I was in high school I saw this play. I don't really know if I should talk about that kind of thing.
LETTERMAN: What about it do you find objectionable?
KORINE: Well, okay. Well, you know James Joyce, Ulysses? I was just kind of inspired, because I used to know Snoop Dog a long time ago, and it was a play that he was starring in. He was starring in the theatrical version of that story. So that's where I basically got the idea from.
LETTERMAN: Yeah, but now if we can go back to the question (audience applauds.). Just a second. It's a very rich colorful group of cast members you have, and I am curious as to how you found these people, where you found them and why you selected them to put them in the film "Gummo."
KORINE: Okay. The main actor's name is Tumler, and I saw him on an episode of Sally Jesse Rafael. It was called, "My Child Died From Sniffing Paint." (Audience cracks up.)
LETTERMAN: You think this is easy, don't you? You're just sitting there in your house eating Cheetos. You think this is easy, don't you? (Audience cracks up.)
KORINE: But he reminded me of Buster Keaton, and he was a paint-sniffing survivor. (Audience cracks up.) Well, I don't know if like the way I'm telling you this if it makes it sound like you'd want to see my movie.
LETTERMAN: Oh, you are selling tickets tonight, buddy.
KORINE: Yeah, yeah. It's "Gump," "Gummo"
LETTERMAN: I'll say this for the film. It's nothing I have ever seen before.
KORINE: Yeah, yeah, because --
LETTERMAN: Where did you shoot the movie?
KORINE: I grew up in Nashville in Tennessee, and I wanted to make a different film. I wanted to make a different kind of movie, because I don't see cinema in the same -- on the same kind of terms or the same way that narrative movies have been made for the past hundred years. I mean, we started with Griffith and we ended up with -- I don't know what the hell is going on now but -- (Audience applauds.)
LETTERMAN: This thing will set 'em straight.
KORINE: But basically nothing has changed, so I wanted to see moving images coming from all directions.
LETTERMAN: Well, that's what you have. You have assembled a series of very striking vivid disturbing impressions.
KORINE: Yeah, well, that's basically my style (laughter).
LETTERMAN: Yeah. May I ask how much the movie cost to make?
KORINE: 80 mil. (Letterman totally cracks up.)
LETTERMAN: 80 million dollars, and every penny is up there on the screen, ladies and gentlemen.
KORINE: Yeah. I stole some of it. Every penny.
LETTERMAN: 1.5 million. Is that about right? That's about right, isn't it?
KORINE: I don't talk finances.
LETTERMAN: Yeah, but no, that's about right, and you know something? I applaud that. I think that to me it's insane that movies, most of them do cost 80 million bucks. You know what I mean? You can't even bust open the popcorn for less than 80 million.
KORINE: No, I agree.
LETTERMAN: And all we are doing really is telling a story, so why would it cost 80 million dollars to tell a story?
KORINE: I know. I don't understand that. That's why I made "Gummo" because it's...
LETTERMAN: And what story are you telling with "Gummo"?
KORINE: Okay. Well, it's not really one story, because that's the whole thing. I don't care about plots.
LETTERMAN: That's right, in the linear sense. It's more slices of life.
KORINE: Well, like I think every movie there needs to be a beginning, middle and end, but just not in that order (laughter), and like when I watch movies, the only thing I really remember are characters and specific scenes. So I wanted to make a film-making system entirely of that, really random.
LETTERMAN: Right. You would like the phone book better if it were not alphabetized, right?
KORINE: Yes, I like the phone book. It's good (laughter).
LETTERMAN: Oh, you do, do ya?
KORINE: Yeah. I like Eddie Cantor. I like Al Jolson. I want to do a minstrel with Tom Cruise, and I want him to play it on his knees.
LETTERMAN: Really? Like Eddie Guddell.
KORINE: I want to make a movie about Eddie Guddell. He was a midget baseball player, but they didn't have -- you know it's in the Guinness Book of World Records, because the strike zone is really small.
LETTERMAN: He walked him on four straight pitches or something.
LETTERMAN: Are you working on a project right now? Do you have something else in the works?
KORINE: I have a novel coming out called, "A Crackup at the Race Riots." It's about a race war, and it happens in Florida, and the Jewish people sit in trees, and the black people -- the blacks are run by M.C. Hammer and the whites are run by Vanilla Ice. It takes place in Florida.
LETTERMAN: Go ahead. Try to adjust your sets. It won't make a damn bit of difference. Go in there and screw with everything you got. Turn it up. Turn it down. Get it going like that, get it going like that. We'll still be here when you're done. KORINE: I wanted to write the great American choose-your-own-adventure novel.
LETTERMAN: Now, you seem like a very prolific young man.
KORINE: Yeah. I had my first art show.
LETTERMAN: Oh, really? You can paint? Is that what it is? You can paint?
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: Now, Harmony, will you come back now?
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: Because when you were here the last time we all said, "Gee, it would be nice if Harmony would come back and see us," and then you put an Arnold Schwarznegger on us, and we haven't seen you in two years. So you're using us.
KORINE: Yes.
LETTERMAN: You only come back when you have something to promote. Is that safe as to say?
KORINE: Yeah. Well, I mean --
LETTERMAN: What about just coming because you kind of enjoyed the experience?
KORINE: Well, all right, okay.
LETTERMAN: Will you come back?
KORINE: I'll come back sometime and hang out with you.
LETTERMAN: No, I didn't say hang out.
LETTERMAN: Now wait a minute. Listen to me.
KORINE: Sorry. I have such a short attention span. I'm serious.
LETTERMAN: Come back sometime before the end of the year. Will you do that?
KORINE: Okay.
LETTERMAN: So that gives you a couple of months. That will be all right.
KORINE: Yeah, because by then I will have done something else.
LETTERMAN: Yeah. That will be good. We don't want you to promote anything. You just come back.
KORINE: I know, I know. I will have learned to swim (Audience applauds.)
LETTERMAN: The movie is called "Gummo". It opened today, and this is the genius behind the film.
KORINE: Yeah.
LETTERMAN: Harmony Korine.
KORINE: It's a new kind of movie. I just want people to know that things need to change. We can make films differently.
LETTERMAN: You represent the avant-garde.
KORINE: I am a commercial film maker. I am a patriot. I hide in trees. All right. All right.

(Dave and Harmony shake hands and audience applauds.)

Go to the Cartoon Network web site at http://www.cartoonnetwork.com click on "Web Premiere Toons." Then click on "Shorts," then click "Gloop and Gleep Group." More Bronwyn C. cartoons will follow soon, but "Gloop and Gleep Group" is her first and she's all giddy with delight about it.

Downtown Soulville's MR. FINEWINE can now be found spinning his delish mix of obscure soul, funk, boogaloo and sixties European go-go on Wednesdays at Botanica (47 East Houston, between Mulberry and Mott), on Tuesdays at Eau (upstairs at 913 Broadway, between 20th & 21st) and the third Friday of every month at the "Vampyros Lesbos" bash at Silk City in Philadelphia (5th and Spring Garden). He's also put together a groovy and totally legit compilation called "Vital Organs" (Groovy Sounds Ltd.) that features ten hard-to-find late sixties and early seventies organ instrumentals remastered off 45s from his own stellar collection. Available at http://www.dustygroove.com and at http://wwww.ubiquityrecords.com.

The Radio Thrift Shop's LAURA CANTRELL has finally secured domestic distribution for her fine new album "Not The Tremblin' Kind."

On October 10th, Laura will be performing at her own record release party at Tonic (107 Norfolk Street, between Delancey and Rivington).

On October 20, Laura is scheduled to participate in two CMJ events: moderating the country music panel and performing in a showcase at Rodeo Bar.

JERSEY SHORE INTERFERENCE UPDATE
We're still waiting for the other shoe to drop down at the Jersey Shore, where a low power FM repeater station is slated to go on the air at 91.3 fm. When this station starts broadcasting, it could severely affect WFMU's 91.1 signal in Middlesex, Monmouth and Ocean counties. Our engineers predict that interference from the new station could even extend beyond those areas. The FCC has warned the owner of the new station that if they do interfere with any WFMU listeners, they need to eliminate that interference or go off the air.

WFMU has an e-mail list about this issue. To be added to the list, please e-mail Station Manager Ken at ken@wfmu.org . After the new stations goes on the air, we'll be mobilizing our efforts and collecting letters and reception reports from listeners in an effort to encourage the FCC and the new station's owners to eliminate any newly created interference.

RECENT FAVES FROM THE WFMU NEW BIN
Reviewed by Music/Program Director Brian Turner.
V/VM / Sick Love (V/VM)
The demented pups in Stock-Hausen & Walkman affiliates V/VM have swung as of late into deconstructing schlock (with recent import 7" singles taking on Falco of "Rock Me Amadeus" vein and more recently Chris deBurgh's "Lady In Red", included on this CD) with an approach that more or less shovels on piles of dirt to the originals rather than doing any kind of Plunder-phonic type action. Here, they continue to basically crack open the shells that case these songs, scooping out the goo and smearing it all over the place. Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are" gets slowed down to like 15 rpm, and an unnatural fixation with beef works its way into titles more often than not (apparently they dragged various livestock onstage at a recent UK slot opening for Sonic Youth). A great example of art via the skewer. V/VM purists may not like this as much as the other releases, but some nice radio moments.

SENSATIONAL/ Heavyweighter (Wordsound)
Speaking of 15 rpm, possibly one of the most bizzare MCs returns to slobbering, lo-fi form. Brooklyn's Sensational's rhymes (which more often than not DON'T) flop through a gauze of wet beats, a heavy hand on the reverb fader, and a vibe that one could imagine the cast of KIDS lying comotose on the floor zoning out to among empty 40s and an all-night drug party. The sounds are futuristic and beats are totally happening. He was supposed to sit in with Small Change but was a no-show, jeez, they definitely woulda needed an interpreter between those two (just kidding $C).

MAURICE McINTYRE / Humility in the Light of the Creator (Delmark)
Awesome reissue from AACM member (his first disc as a leader), 1969. Like Sam Rivers, McIntyre transcended bop and strove to unearth the ultimate potential of non-chord-based sound, and like many of his AACM peers revealed a strong vision in his music that was heavily keyed into the free-thinking and spiritual mode that was dominating the era.

DEAD C / Language Recordings 1 & 2 (Language)
Four years in the making, the New Zealand trio of Robbie Yeats, Bruce Russell and Michael Morley still turn on the juice in their practice room and make some of the most alien rock music imaginable. Twin guitars see-saw between Morley's Venusian blues & drone and Russell's sputtering old amp and ring modulator, while Yeats drums with the arrhythmic thunk of someone playing those Whack-a-Mole booths at the fair. Yet, with all the chaos, the Dead C coalesce into a major SOUND, when they lock in on the 33 minute "Speeder Bot" it wipes down all the post-rock stuff the WIRE yaps about (in fact, even the glitching laptop generation is in total awe of what the Dead C is doing with the guitar/bass/drum setup). A 2CD set worthy of your cash.

STINA NORDENSTAM / People Are Strange (East West Germany)
Jeez, this is on every time you turn on the radio this month, but it's quite amazing. This gets a lot of comparisons to Cat Power's "Covers Record", but Scandinavian beauty Stina's approach makes this quite different indeed. Fully realized studio arrangements and highbrow production meshes quite oddly with a lo-fi, often 'luded-sounding vocal backdrop (foredrop) but in a great way. Several songs are quite identifiable (Rod Stewart's "Sailing", Prince's "Purple Rain") from first listen, but a few are extremely loose interpretations.

IN/HUMANITY / Violent Resignation/Great American Teenage Suicide Rebellion (Prank)
CATTLE DECAPITATION / Homovore (Three.One.G) HATEWAVE / Hatewave (Tumult)
A trio of East Coast vs. West Coast vs. Midwest pure hatefests record to coincide with the re-release of the Exorcist. In/Humanity (from South Carolina) split up in 98, but left behind a totally brutal legacy of ultra-hardcore, suicide-encouraging, satan-embracing spew that was pure and nutzoid. 42 tracks including a cover of the legendary Screamers. Cattle Decap are a San Diego Locust-related outfit who thrash with an extremely bad attitude with a very unhealthy fixation on meat, discharge, and vividly describing medical functions; while Hatewave is a new reissue of a 97 LP featuring Flying Luttenbacher/To Live and Shave in LA-er Weasel Walter on drums, an amazing trio in total overdrive grind-gobblydygook mode with some jawdropping lyrics. Three to clear the parties...

VARIOUS / Calypso Awakening (Smithsonian)
Lord Melody and Mighty Sparrow dominate this collection (that also includes others) of amazing Trinidadian recordings made by audio engineer Emory Cook between 1956 and 1962. Calypso was in its post-war infancy, and Cook, who had made giant strides in recording technology (both in recording techniques and vinyl pressing) did true field recordings, lugging gear out into remote locales to hear musical interaction in their true element. Great sounding steel bands, vocal workouts and more.

VARIOUS / Killed By Absurdity Volume 1 (Failed Pilot)
Well, of course anything citing inspiration from Dion McGregor's sleeptalking record, Celebrities at Their Worst, and the bizarro 1977 LP "You Think You Really Know Me" by Gary Wilson, is going to get WFMU attention. But methinks this collection of "found" absurd songs was recorded on purpose somewhere by hepsters who know better. Regardless, the casio-samba reciting Mexican food names, the a capella choir doing Toto's "Africa" and the nails-on-chalk audio loveletter by some dweeb is sure to entice the staff to challenge the listeners' "How Much Can You Take" meters.

MUSTAFIO / Mustafio (Mustafio)
An hour of a man inexplicably speaking like Bela Lagosi. No more information available or sent along.

PRAM / Museum of Imaginary Animals (Merge)
What an amazing record, as fascinating as watching a gigantic aquarium bubbling away. Like me, Pram love all things underwater and aquatic, and I could imagine no better cassette to have strapped into my waterproof walkman on a diving expedition. Singer Rosie's swooping, gorgeous voice swims along the lovely off-kilter melodies Pram offers, sometimes sounding like Martin Denny conducting an aquatic toy orchestra, other times like a woozier version of Laika. If "Bewitched" was a single it would be the tops of the year hands down.
