heard ‘get innocuous!’ on the wecb ghost show (thank you) and reminded me of this gem of an album
upbeat, fun, and not my usual rock/alternative beat

Ok not only is their name a lovely reminder of the much loved character Tom, BUT this album evokes some of that same sunny magic. Cheerful. Energetic. Folk sounds mixed with digital. Good stuff.

Hey kid wanna hear some free jazz from hell?
Take a schizzed out trip for your listening pleasure (or displeasure) with Carnival Folklore Resurrection Vol 11/12: Radio One & Two. The album taken from a broadcast of the band Sun City Girls that originally aired on Brian Turner's WFMU radio show in 2002.
Sun City Girls were experimental rock group - though to call them such feels misleading already as they cannot be easily summed up for simplicity’s sake.
Formed in Arizona in 1979 by brothers Alan & Richard Bishop and Charles Gocher they have had an obscure and prolific career.
The band is known for taking fragmented recordings of world music, answering machines, tv & radio media and defying genre and space and time, regurgitating everything and anything in their path and melting it down into a sick chaotic soup of their own peppered with a heavy hand of spoken word improvisation.
This is one of my favourite albums to play while I’m painting or trying to do anything creative really - the constant motion from fragmented thought to thought and genre to genre really keeps the wheels turning.
I frequently throw tracks from it into my other playlists like little interludes for breaks from reality.
So take a trip with your Uncle Jim while he’s all hopped up in amyl nitrate - kick it with beatniks performing ritualistic theatrics with tongue tied mystics & join a cargo cult as you get lost in the paranormal and esoteric wild wild world of Sun City Girls.

saw LCD Soundsystem at primavera, I’ve never listened to any of their albums properly but clearly I’ve missed out

I love this button. I think it is from 1984. It was on a bulletin board in my childhood home.
