Do you find No Wave listenable? 😄😉

@PaMWStF Год назад

Honestly no. I find the movement interesting but god no it is terrible music.

@damienf.7543 Год назад

barely but it's not meant to be accessable or normal

@rahawk69 Год назад

I do, i like it a lot. The more pop hooks i hear over the years, the more boring and repetitive they become. No wave represents a break from traditional musical themes. They may not realise it, but the musicians are playing with structure, it’s just a very complex and less accessible structure, utilising Chromatic scales.

@andre-mg8ou 10 месяцев назад

kinda. I can easilly get into the early Sonic Youth albuns and some of No New York but stuff like Glenn Branca still very weird for me

@EvilCat-EnergyCatalyst 10 месяцев назад

Very. Most of my favourite music could be considered No-Wave or similar.

@swinehorde9118 Год назад

If we expand the definition of No Wave beyond the NYC scene, we should probably include SPK (Austraia), Boredoms (Japan), Smegma (California) and Scratch Acid (Texas)

@EvilCat-EnergyCatalyst 10 месяцев назад

And then to the whole little Geniale Dilletanten movement of Berlin (Einstuerzende Neubauten (early), Die Toedliche Doris, Sprung aus den Wolken, Leben und Arbeiten (some songs), Alexander Borsig / Christiane F. / Sentimentale Jugend, etc.).

@evangelistamono2200 8 месяцев назад

Before “You Spin Me Round”, Dead Or Alive were known as Nightmares In Wax and were essentially a British version of a no wave band. But possibly the most definitive British no wave band is Blurt.

You were having too much fun there at the end of the world, Stella! "You paddle out, turn around and raise \ And baby that's all there is to the coastline craze \ You gotta catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world" --The Beach Boys, "Catch A Wave", September 16, 1963 Avante-garde experimental punk rock was not on the menu when I was in grade school, so afaik, the no-wave made no ripples in California, at least not directly. Sonic Youth were the noisiest band in the land from when I was in college to beyond. I vaguely remember some controversy over a Lydia Lunch album or something back then that I paid no attention to. It wasn't until years later after seeing two Richard Kern short films she performed in, Submit to Me (1985) and Fingered (1988), that I began to see the fuss. Brutal! Lydia Lunch is a performance artist - with explicit tastes - might be one way to put it. More recently, she was one of the last people Anthony Bourdain interviewed for his television show before his demise. Her presence kept it real. 💯

SWANS!! Sadly I did not get to see them in that era, I did get to see them in in the last 10 years, not as chaotic as that era, I'm sure BUT still amazing live, and LOUD! There current era seems to be a more dark noise folk, with more focus and intensity. So many of the bands in this video, I heard about and or heard, in the mid 80s. So much wonderful music! Thanks for your amazing videos 😻 And sorry your tummy hurts 😿 🌻🌻

@madelinemitchell104 Год назад

@kingjoeyliscious Год назад

Oh yeah, they were able to get away with a lot at their live shows back then. They had an unrivaled reputation, which is part of why Michael pushed to make that initial change into gothic music. He didn't like the audience it was attracting, people didn't understand that it was never gross extremity for its own sake but about losing yourself in the sound. I think the mid 90s was their peak in their transcendental live music and I wish I could've been there for the legendary set in Belgium that makes up half of the Swans Are Dead album.

@discokid9060 Год назад

Great coverage of No Wave! I would argue The Residents make more sense being mentioned alongside Yoko Ono & Plastic Ono Band since they were making atonal de-constructive music since the early 1970s. By the late 1970s they were moving away from deconstruction and more towards album long concept albums that had more structure and while still experimental, less so in a No Wave vein than their earlier releases had been.

@dianepeel7154 11 месяцев назад

No Wave was not confined to NYC. It was also in London, Berlin and especially in San Francisco on the West Coast. SF had a thriving, dynamic No Wave scene with dozens of experimental bands. Both NYC and SF had avant garde music traditions in place since the 1950s and before. The Downtown Music Scene (NYC) and the Bay Area Improv Scene (SF). I am from NYC and went back and forth on both costs each month and I can tell you at times the SF music scene was more interesting and creative than NYC. This often gets overlooked. Same with the SF/LA punk scenes of the late 1970s and 1980s which eclipsed the NYC punk scene. SF also had a vibrant thrash speed metal renaissance happening at the time. Then early raves and cyberpunk in the mid-1980s before London. People always talk about the Sixties and the psychedelic music but SF area was a epicenter of creativity for several decades. The Media almost always overlooks this. There were also a few no wave bands scattered across the U.S. and the world. Punk did not start in NYC and neither did No Wave. That is just a false narrative perpetuated by the NYC-centric Media. The reality is more complicated. For example the SF band MX-80 (originally from Illinois) sounded like Sonic Youth in 1977 several years before Sonic Youth even formed. They influenced Sonic Youth, The Swans and countless other bands. They were one of the Godfathers of No Wave yet they are never given respect. I was there, man. Saw it all on both coasts and in Europe.

@blackhistoryofrocknroll 6 месяцев назад

As a movement, it actually was more of a New York regional thing thing -title wise, but if we want to compare similarities, we can talk about just what also became know as art punk and post-punk in general. No wave was predominantly a New York description of what they were doing, that was not The Ramones or acts like television or blondie - who were being called new wave at one point.. It was definitely more of an avant garde movement so that was their title. It was like saying f**k " new wave" because some of what was coming out of that scene was being called that. These bands not only didn't fit into that corporate title, they also were cut from a whole different clth approach wise to some degree.Back then, all of it was just punk rock . Most people would think of it as today. It wasn't just three chord... bands like the residents were looked at with punk interest... punk was anything that was Outsider and unconventional. It was a Avant garde. Punk reignited a lot of subcultures -rude boy, skin head culture even teddy boy. But no one really talks about how much it really used a lot of the avant garde sensibilities before it.. that u mentioned ...it even had the same affect on the Avant garde underground that it did with other subcultures -definitely of what became known as no wave and post punk.

@mikepastor.k6233 Год назад

Live Skull e.p. is one of my favorite Noise Rock's albums. A definite influence from no wave and early Sonic Youth.

@khambrelgreen Год назад

I remember getting it to no wave music when I was 16 and 17. Sonic Youth's debut album scared me. It was so dark and strange I didn't know how to deal with it. So I continue just to listen to it on repeat over and over over.

Great videos! Another influence is John Cage as many of these bands thought punk didn't go far enough in its revolt against the status quo since they continued to use chord structure and rhythms of traditional rock and roll.

@wlouisharris 10 месяцев назад

I went to NYC one time in 1981 for my Uncle's wedding. We staid in Long Island. We went to Manhattan 1 day and I caught a lot of the grime that Taxi Driver focused on. It was chaotic. We went through Time's square and someone had set off some kind of small explosive in the sewer. It was almost like a common occurrence for things like that to go on. We went down to Battery Park. I was looking at some key chains at this stand and I'll never forget the vendor grabbed them from me and said "if you're not going to buy it don't touch it." People told us to not dare get on the subway. There is still some of that Northeast cold attitude but nothing like it was.

Thank you Stella! I reckon No Wave allowed for atonality to become viable force in pop, making rock's pallet that much broader. It's brief musical moments like these in which that create history.

Great video about one of my favorite movements! There's a live compilation album out there called Speed Trials from 83 that I believe was curated by Thurston Moore that features a host of No Wave bands. Really nice comp. A couple great performances from The Fall, pre-hiphop Beastie Boys, The Swans, Live Skull, Lydia, Sonic Youth, and Carbon. Worth looking for.

I’ve got to hand it to you, you can make a presentation on a musical movement as unpalatable as No Wave entertaining and dare I say fun. I’m a fan of the bands and music that were influenced by No Wave. I remember hearing Sonic Youth and Live Skull and Swans for the first time later in the 80’s and thinking the intensity was so much rawer than what traditional punk rock and hardcore had offered a few years before. Being able to listen to Scratch Acid and enjoy it was a true feat! And I hadn’t thought of the Golden Palominos for a very long time! Good job, as always.

@StellasEncounter Год назад

Good video and I do agree that no wave was more of a New York response to what punk was saying it was - challenging punk to be very non conformist. Or not caring at all just doing what it wants Although some people might think that no way was beyond New York entitled, it wasn't. There are other Avant guard movements within punk rock. But they were not called no way that definitely is a New York title given to there. Take on experimental music in regards to punk rock. I wouldn't call bands like pink section, the dead Beats tunnel canary or Chrome. No way because that wasn't what they called their stuff . But I'm sure if they were in New York. They would have been lumped in with many of those Bands Much of what people were calling heartpunk now in even post-punk. It's probably what they would have been labeled, but no way definitely was more of a regional thing Title wise but much of It is similar to postpunk in the u k and a lot of the art punk in san francisco and los angeles,. No wave title wise is speciific to New York and their take on avant garde or expirmental music to punk . So altho its looked at more as a genre outside of NY by truth be told it was more of a NY movement . No other people were calling their stuff that back then , even doong sounds that were similar- black randy and metro squad , the Deadbeats , the residents ( they were a band before no wave happend), nervous gender , Crash course in science were around the same time and that title didnt apply to them back then. But there were much of the similarities muscially.

it feels like it's related to dadaism it seems to have the same psychological roots i'm interested in it; from the perspective of fascination with nature of art sciences and the phenomena of folk art but it feels like the musical equivalent of a tantrum thus a very disempowered way to live. some of the [non-musicians] seem to just be legitimately exploring and experimenting with sound others seem to be just deluded hypocrite elitist snobs. off topic: Do you identify as INTP?

Thanks for your interesting comment on No wave. I agree with what you said mostly. I'm an INXP perhaps, INTP is possible. Hahaha!

I'd heard of no wave, but didn't know much about it. Thanks for informing me. Now I know it's the absolute most unhappy, pretentious art movement ever.

This moment in the lineage of modern music is *great,* worthwhile and *extremely* important. What's pretty funny about this documentary, though, is her continual and constant use of Media invented categorisations for genres the musicians themselves *detested.* No Wave was the *only* label actually invented by the people *for* the people. All the same (and I *do* commend her interest in this period), her very naive use of terminology does only serve to highlight her own inherent ignorance of what's she's actually reviewing
