Anthropocosmic Nest
''Anthropocosmic Nest'' is the second album by The Messthetics. Unlike their debut album, which was recorded after having only been together for a short while, this album was recorded after a great deal of touring. Guitarist Anthony Pirog estimates the band played about 200 gigs and therefore had a chance to perform the songs live for a while before recording them. Reception In a review for AllMusic, Mark Deming called the album "a must for anyone with a taste for music that's smart, challenging, and exciting," and wrote: "''Anthropocosmic Nest'' pushes the trio's boundaries on all sides... The three musicians... avecreated a greater shared language and the conversation is richer, more potent, and more deeply rewarding" in comparison with their debut album. Justin Cober-Lake of ''Spectrum Culture'' stated that, although the album "runs just a touch too long," it "finds new ways to blend a hard rock rhythm with more outre approaches to jazz guitar." He commented: "With ''Anthropoc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
The Messthetics
The Messthetics is an instrumental trio formed by former Fugazi members bassist Joe Lally and drummer Brendan Canty with guitarist Anthony Pirog. Their music has been described as "jazz punk jam." History Lally had been living in Rome and upon returning to Washington D.C. he hooked back up with Canty and played him some of his solo work. Canty suggested Pirog join them as he had previously been impressed by him. When the three started jamming they clicked as a band and Pirog invited the other two to be his rhythm section for a project with John Zorn's Tzadik Records. They didn't end up recording for Tzadik as at their first show Ian MacKaye was impressed enough to offer them a spot on Dischord Records. The band's first album, eponymously entitled ''The Messthetics'', was released by Dischord Records, Dischord in 2018. It was recorded live in Canty’s practice room. Their follow-up album, ''Anthropocosmic Nest'', was released on September 6th, 2019. by Dischord Records. The album w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as ''All Music Guide'' by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
