Even being into punk, I can't think of a single Anal oval office song that's any loving good at all. Do they have anything that's not just completely terrible garbage with an offensive / provocative title?

I think the thread's big enough for all that screaming abrasive stuff too, but I just don't even know how to comment or react to it. I can't make out any of the words, there's no melody, and it's just like a fat load of noise. Can someone defend it? It just seems impenetrable to me.

some noisy music is just noise, there's a whole genre of that
other noisy music is layered complexity that treats the vocals as another instrument rather than a way to convey meaning. (without sound like a Tool fan I don't like 99% of this music)

sometimes it has a great rhythm, but mostly people have different tastes and like the chaotic fast beats and heavy sounds that genres like grindcore provide. if you break it down and listen to some of the instruments separately some bands either intentionally or unintentionally borrow a lot of jazz scales

also some people like to be grimdark

i was just being a dick but ok. conveying emotion is a big part of music and anger is a powerful one that works well with music across a lot of genres. that stuff is about as angry as it gets and i can appreciate it for what it is but i do get tired of it fast tbh

Wire's a good source of short songs, for sure.

For whatever reason, Wire reminded me of the Minutemen, who also have a bunch of short songs.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB2xvXlNPt8
Minutemen--Do You Want New Wave or Do You Want the Truth?

Great title for a song, not sure I get what it's supposed to be about, but the album is solid.

Mclusky's interesting, here's another short one from them with a funny video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgkzRE89Gyw
McLusky--Lightsabre Cocksucking Blues

"I'm aching from loving too much"

I think my favorite Dead Milkmen song is Stuart, but it's a bit too long for this thread. I just like the manic character that keeps asking "Do you know what the queers are doing to the soil!?"

I dig that NIN track--reminds me of a heavier little Brian Eno sketch.

I think I had that Fat Wreck Chords album back in the day...beside the $5 comps like Physical Fatness and the Give 'em the Boot ones and the Punk o Ramas. There's probably some decent short songs out of the 100 on the disc.

I bothered looking up the AFI song--it has funny lyrics, and I get that the delivery is part of the humor, but I think the lyrics would work better if they just made a fun song about Key Lime Pie and didn't make it so hardcore.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOaVkOUwFzg
Radio Birdman--Burn My Eyes

Somehow I only just heard about this group--they have an awesome early punk sound (which makes sense, since they recorded in the 70s), highly recommended if you like New York Doll type tunes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFeS0VstOdE
The Replacements--I Hate Music

"I hate music
Sometimes I don't
I hate music
It's got too many notes"

Anal oval office purposely put out lovely songs. The more fans they got, the more they changed up the formula to drive those fans away.

Handsome Family--If the World Should End in Fire

If the world should end in fire
The oceans boiling into flame
I will watch the last sunrise
And think of all the sunny days

When the mystery of the skies
And the shifting clouds
Was enough to make me sure
That beyond the gauzy haze

Of life's listless dream
There's a place where time is dead
And all things stand still
And always will, and always will

and of course

If the world should end in ice
In days of endless night
I'll let the snowstorms cover me
In a blanket of white

And remember red, red robins
Hopping across the yard
Hunting singing crickets
As the first evening stars

Opened up their eyes
And dropped their golden tears
On every windowsill
And always will, and always will
