hey dissensians- gonna be a be cheeky and ask for a helping hand in the article i'm writing at the moment, and hopefully spark a nice discussion while i'm at it.
so i'm currently writing a piece for Fact about visual artists making music- all the way from david byrne to gang gang dance + balck dice (actually, is 'all the way' appropriate there?)
any one you can think that'd be good for me to include as well? i'm interested in the way that musicians from a fine art background often bring a very definite 'concept' to the music there involved in (to take may be a facile example, blur and pulp were self-consciously'about' something in a way that oasis weren't...)
the klaxons are also fine artists i've heard, and if ever there was a band with a pre-determined concept/USP, it's them (still haven't heard them incidentally, altho i hear they're good...)
i particularly want to find out about comic book artists making music, although i'm not sure why. it just seems right...
