Mr. Moore said that only a narrow definition would fit the genre, which was so contrary in its sound and attitude that too much outside context would dilute its impact.
“We liked the absurdity of how small it was,” he said. “We kept our parameters really tight. We needed a cut-off point, and we cut it off as soon as anybody played any semblance of rock ’n’ roll. Any kind of traditional aspect of rock, it’s over.”

there's no wave like no wave.

i really loved marc masters's no wave book, 'no wave' a whole lot too. if this is as good as that, i already love it.

i wanted to go to the teenage jesus show so bad, but i got the dates mixed up and am taking my dad to see r.e.m. in mansfield, ma tonight for fathers day. oh well.
