van oehlen, we are eggsperienced - bc3 cd

if you think that the blue chopsticks horse is a fusty, knowledge-heavy nag who answers exclusively to the name "reissue label," behold van oehlen. van oehlen is the duo of albert and markus oehlen. albert is best known to listeners for his heavy, integral participation in the red krayola. he currently runs the leiterwagen record label -- rare thing, batting nearly a thousand? -- providing a home for the likes of jailhouse, j.b. slik, and titankatzen as well as the rearcar / rearprojection new stream compilations. albert is among the most heralded visual artists of his generation and has had retrospectives of his work at the wexner center for the arts, hamburg's deichtorhallen, and the kunsthalle basel. markus oehlen is known to listeners as as the drummer of the legendary german punk group mittagspause, as one- third of jailhouse, and as the leiterwagen solo artist don hobby. he is familiar to sharp-eyed souls as an exceptional visual artist, a veteran of numerous gallery and museum shows. (two of markus's drawings grace gastr del sol's camoufleur; the cover of we are eggsperienced is his.) we are eggsperienced features contributions from the red krayola's mayo thompson and tom watson as well as german jazz legend rüdiger carl (cowws quintet and various recordings for the fmp label) and goldenen zitronen frontman schorsch kamerun. what is new stream music? a draft of albert's new stream manifesto was circulated before the red krayola's first live performance of fingerpainting. new stream is not dissimilar to cold jazz, but counts among its progenitors the red krayola's free-form freakouts, "revolution no. 9," sun ra's most bracingly alien synthesizer solos, and the deep freeze mice at their least musical.

the red krayola with art & language
sighs trapped by liars
dc343 cd

with the entirely new music statement, sighs trapped by liars, the red krayola renew their association with conceptual artists art & language. beginning in 1973, their collaboration includes the video projects “nine gross and conspicuous errors,” and “struggle in new york,” as well as the much-acclaimed and -decried music releases corrected slogans, kangaroo?, and black snakes. thirty years has mellowed the various parties not at all. the faint-hearted might want to swallow something calming before giving sighs trapped by liars a spin.

sighs trapped by liars is as much a delightful bit of latter-day entertainment as it is a sensational musical excursion not trapped in any era. the composers of red krayola classics such as “keep all your friends,” “portrait of v.i.lenin in the style of jackson pollock,” ”black snakes,” and “born in flames” have made another try at negotiating the relationship between language and music in this new collection. speaking in a contemporary (and frequently foul-mouthed) voice they say something we could all stand to hear — in a popular music format that we can all enjoy.

those expecting a further trip into the radical leftist pamphleteering of the former works will have to listen closely; these are new songs for new days. perspectives are taken from quotes, exhibits and jokes of history and translated into material that addresses the state of the art. this music couldn’t be made without the experiences and politics of former days. the questions the 60s asked about the very idea of music and objects inform the practice today; the relationship of these new songs to the old ones is projective and analytical, subject to change without notice.

art & language’s lyrical contributions were put to music and played by mayo thompson, accompanied by tom watson, john mcentire, noel kupersmith and jim o’rourke. the music is an intimate and expansive setting, a pop framework for deliberate and meditative language. red krayola vocalists elisa randazzo and sandy yang stepped forth to the mic for a lead vocal performance that runs the register from ethereal-to-nursery-rhyme-to-adult-contemporary, with the odd obscenity smoothly integrated into its logic. jumping through the mirror so that you have to follow, the red krayola with art & language bring you sighs trapped by liars.
