Fingers crossed for Advaitic Songs Pt. 2.
I've heard otherwise. As far as I can tell, Al's written at least seven songs.

Recording should be reasonably soon.

Yob, AAL, OM, Mastodon. Looking forward to another year searching for quality new music.
I am almost certain, that similar to last year, I will find myself mostly unimpressed with the usual suspects' releases while at the same time finding a majority of the best albums to be complete surprises ... fingers crossed that I do enjoy the releases from all four of the bands mentioned ... Mastodon, this is your absolute last chance

Adrift is definitely the most "accessible" song of theirs, and I dare say their best one. The rest really grew on me over time. Which is to say, I reeeeeeally did not dig them at first.

the second track is much better than the first but nothing overly exciting or outside of what I'd expected:

Oh my God, that was awful.

Here's how you spell derivative Nu-Metal, kids.

Yeah, no one's voting for anything I pick for AOTW, are they.

I've been spinning Guilty of Everything by Nothing quite a bit lately. I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up on my end of year list.

FATIMA AL QADIRI - "ASIATISCH"

This album is as unreal as it is conceptually bizarre.
Pitchfork: How would you describe the overall concept behind Asiatisch?

Fatima Al Qadiri: I wanted to make a record based on this idea of the presence of Asian motifs in Western music, whether it’s in rap, classical, TV, cartoons. I feel like I’ve been listening to and soaking in these Asian motifs in Western music for a long time, so this record is like a virtual road trip through “imagined China.” It’s not the real China. I’ve never been to China. I only know what the West is telling me about China.

One track on the album is called “Szechuan”, which is the colonial spelling [of the region of China]. The current non-colonial version of it is “Sichuan.” I spelled it the colonial way because that’s how it appears in Chinese restaurants across the world. And it’s my Chinese-restaurant track. There’s this idea that Chinese food in China is different than the Chinese food that you find in the West. There’s an illusion—you know what Chinese food tastes like, but then when you go to China, you’re shocked. You come to terms with reality.



Pitchfork: There’s a tendency for artists to handle foreign culture sloppily or insensitively, but you seem to do it very delicately.

FAQ: I only have a Bachelor’s Degree but I’ve had professors who have instilled this kind of academic rigor in me where I don’t make any generalizations or closed statements. There always has to be room for interpretation. This record is about this idea of: What is Asian? I am Asian. Kuwait is in Asia. But it’s also not. I want to ask the questions: Why have I been exposed to imagined China for all these years? Why is no one talking about imagined China? That “We Are Siamese” song in Lady and the Tramp is undisputably racist. But that somehow has come full circle over the years, and stereotypes become more and more dislocated from their original venom.

I also had a story-telling mother; she’s written novels and short stories. So I feel like maybe I’m staying alive by telling tales. And I want to instill some kind of rigor in the ideas behind this music. There’s a very corny idea that music is cinematic somehow, but that’s what I’m trying to achieve. My music doesn’t exist in a vacuum; there’s a script and there’s an actor and it’s about to come together.
Have a taste of it through the link. I love it.
O love will you read the letters I will send to you.

Pitchfork: What was your first impression of American college kids?


FAQ: I mean, the first question they asked me was, “What state is Kuwait in?” They thought Kuwait was in America. This was 1999, so it wasn’t that long after the first Gulf War. But at the same time, I understand that a lot of them were only kids when that war happened, so they didn’t know better.

One thing I found very amusing: When I was at NYU I had an etymology class, and there was a geography test. You had to pair the language with country, and I was one of five out of 100 people who passed the test, which just proved to me how little Americans are taught geography. There was a mutiny. The class protested to the professor so much that he dropped that grade. I was like, “Wow, you should come to realize that you don’t know where anything is.” I feel like there is an emphasis against teaching geography in American schools. Americans don’t say, “I’m going to Germany.” They say, “I’m going to Europe.”

Geez talk about getting painted with the same brush. "American college students" does not equal some students in New York.

Geography was taught where I went to regular school, but I have heard that it's minimized in other school systems.

agreed, although not a surprise ... I know some school districts aren't even mandating handwriting any more, in favor of typing ... soon, there will be an entire generation lacking basic penmanship skills ... we're making ourselves immediate and obsolete at an alarming rate. It's quite sad to think that some future archaeologists are going to find nothing but a metre-thick layer of plastic with no written record of humanity's existence when they dig to this stratum layer in future generations.

Yeah, as I mentioned on Facebook, I felt kind of uncomfortable when I read that part.

That said, the Americans that I met when I went over there generally did not know where Australia was on a map.

a vast amount of Americans, taught or not, don't know much in the way of geography outside of direction to the nearest Wal*Mart ... TRUTH!
