people seem to think i care about genres. if i were to place my own music in one, it wouldn't otherwise exist. i call it "blender rock" in that it takes in influences from all over the place and melds it all together. it's a concept that roughly encapsulates the idea of "progressive rock", but explicitly rejects attempts to stabilize progressive music as having a defined sound. other artists i'd place in this genre would be zappa, beatles (66-69), hendrix, floyd, genesis (gabriel), can, elo, mahavishnu, crimson, bowie, queen, oldfield, cardiacs, cure, u2, swans, sonic youth, coil, foetus, neubauten, flaming lips, key/goettel, mbv, nirvana, nin, pumpkins, tool, tori, tortoise, mr. bungle, squarepusher, radiohead (-01), bjork, asmz, 65dos, keneally, mars volta, lightning bolt, spiral beach, man man, fuck buttons, genghis tron, battles, ssris, indricothere, st. vincent, pepepiano and la dispute. all are influences.
i'm interested in hearing about further examples of blender rock.

TAKE THAT YOUTUBE HIPSTERS.
man, i'm telling you. a hundred ad exec brains just exploded. there's no way to place this in a demographic.
i'm basically convinced at this point that youtube is swarming with "suits" that are going around ensuring that their products don't get bad advertising.
so, i'm trolling them. well the idea is to draw attention to myself in hopes that people might click through and listen to my own, but i find what i'm *actually* doing is arguing with ad execs that are trying to maintain the sanctity of their ads (which is what youtube is to a marketing douche - it's a way to upload advertisements for their records/products) while i convincingly insult their products.
of course, they need to find creative ways to defend their ads. so, they go looking through my shit looking for a way to create a caricature of me.
i'm on to you, fuckers.
