Search - Echo Park :: Revolution of Everyday Life

The credits for The Revolution of Everyday Life read like a list of perpetrators in a police blotter: DJ Spykid, Jon Tye (Twisted Science), Thurston Moore, Wendy Harper (Ui), and a host of other names and notes from the underground. To concoct this digital stereo bomb, the cabal of provocateurs used heavy, smog-choked beats and rhythms as the main ingredient. Next they mixed in volatile elements like static discharges, disordered guitar screams, gurgling rants, and electronic black noise until the results sparked the primer--the spirit and experimental angst that haunted the early years of Industrial. If you dislike dance music because you think it's just for the club floor, Echo Park is waiting for your ass in a back alley. --Michael Woodring
