REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE

My guest this week is musician David Pajo (Slint, Papa M, Gang Of Four), who picked the Louisville, Kentucky indie music film Half-Cocked  to discuss.  BUT…there was so much to talk about that this is only part one of the conversation before we even got to talking about the film! We discussed his Papa M compositions, how Slint songs were made to sound like they were improvised but were actually meticulous in their structure, how his new album was all one-take performances done without a computer, needing a cheat sheet for Slint reunion songs, the concept of "through" composing, the humor within Slint, Andy Gill of Gang Of Four playing his guitar without touching it, joining GO4 and how it opened him up as a live performer, the challenges of learning and playing the song "He’d Send In The Army", is the guitar a friend/foe/tool, Big Black, the Slint documentary Breadcrumb Trail, breaking your parents’ will using the Butthole Surfers, David playing in Stereolab & Interpol, aging in indie rock, and David asks me questions about my wild times in Guided By Voices.So let's play with our backs to the audience on this episode of Revolutions Per Movie.DAVID PAJO:papam.bandcamp.com/instagram.com/cestcadavidpajoHALF-COCKED: vimeo.com/ondemand/halfcockedREVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE:Host Chris Slusarenko (Eyelids, Guided By Voices, owner of Clinton Street Video rental store) is joined by actors, musicians, comedians, writers & directors who each week pick out their favorite music documentary, musical, music-themed fiction film or music videos to discuss.

Welcome to an Encore Presentation of one of my favorite episodes ever of Revolutions Per Movie, where I got to discuss the documentary Desolation Center with the creators of these legendary events (who else would put the Minutemen on a barge or Einsturzende Neubauten in the desert). Plus, I love it whenever I get to surprise my guests with more guests to create the whole picture from the inside out. Enjoy!(Episode 33 originally aired on April 25th, 2024).The original show notes:This week, we talk to Stuart Swezey & Bruce Licher, who produced and worked on the Desolation Center series of shows that took bands like minutemen, Swans, Redd Kross, Meat Puppets, Sonic Youth, and Einsturzende Neubauten and put them in locations such as the Mojave Desert as a reaction to the omnipresent police violence against punk rock kids.  We talked about the Desolation Center documentary that Swezey directed, the iconic visuals that Licher created for the events, having the legendary artist Chris Burden as your teacher, the healing power of Throbbing Gristle, how to source school buses to take punk rockers to the desert, fake ids, Savage Republic, Glenn Branca and the No New York LP, Redd Kross getting lost in the desert, violence coming from rednecks, the notion of selling out and not repeating oneself, the impact of D.

Welcome to an Encore Presentation of the first episode ever of Revolutions Per Movie...It had to start somewhere...and of course I had to begin with 'Dig' the Dandy Warhols/Brian Jonestown Massacre documentary! I was so happy that my first discussion already had a surprise guest to dismantle the film from the inside. Oh, the youth of us all...ha! (Episode 1 originally aired on Sept. 14th 2023).The original show notes:Hello and welcome to Revolutions Per Movie, a podcast about music documentaries, music-based fiction films, and the art of the music video.I’m your host, Chris Slusarenko— a musician who has been in bands such as Eyelids & Guided By Voices and was once the owner of an independent video store in Portland, Oregon, for over 22 years.For our inaugural episode, we talk with author/musician Ryan H. Walsh, who chose the Brian Jonestown Massacre/Dandy Warhols documentary film “Dig!” to discuss. We are also joined later by a surprise guest from the Brian Jonestown Massacre camp, Travis Snyder, who was the band’s tour manager for almost 20 years. We talk about how the film was initially commissioned to be a reality series by MTV, how bands in the 90s navigated the major label-feeding frenzy, the unhealthy lifestyle of band life, and how this documentary really did not tell the whole truth.So listen in as we discuss the revolution that never happened on this episode, Revolutions Per Movie. Ryan H.

Hey everyone...welcome to our bi-monthly ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vault!This was a special one...director Ryan Worsley had just finished the film at the time of this recording and was publicly screening it along with Negativland performing live afterwards. Not only was it the best Negativland performance I had ever seen, but it was also one of the most powerful (upsetting and darkly funny) shows I'd ever witnessed. A band that is notoriously difficult to pin down was explored beautifully with Stand By For Failure, so I was excited to get into the weeds (and we do!).(EPISODE 55 originally aired Sept 26th 2024)ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES:This week, we are joined by documentary filmmaker RYAN WORLSEY to discuss her film STAND BY FOR FAILURE: A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT NEGATIVLAND. We discuss how Ryan was introduced to the world of Negativland and what she thought of it, how she decided the best way to tell their complicated but surpringly emotional story, the fair use doctrine and copyright law, are Negativland really a band, David Wills (aka The Weatherman) and his astonishing talents & laughter through it all, Negativland's origin story, how Negativland’s current live show We Can Really Feel LIke We’re Here might be their most powerful work to date, the band signing and then getting sued by SST Records, their long-running radio show Over The Edge, what Negativland did with band member Don Joyce’s ashes after his passing, can you still culture jam today, plunderphonics, how Negativland’s perceptions of the world are formed through their music and then mirrored back to us, Richard Lyons' and his alter egos, the U2 lawsuit against the band, the majesty of Casey Casem swearing, the resilience of the band through all their hardships, seeing the inside of The Residents’ recording studio in the film, the Christianity Is Stupid murder myth, how artist’s are still getting ripped off, what it’s like being the subject of a documentary, where Ryan & Negativland stand on AI, and the cultural desert that is the suburbs.Is there any escape from noise? Find out on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie!!!RYAN WORSLEY:http://pool-food.com/failure/NEGATIVLAND:https://negativland.com/https://negativland.com/negativland-documentaryREVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE:Host Chris Slusarenko (Eyelids, Guided By Voices, owner of Clinton Street Video rental store) is joined by actors, musicians, comedians, writers & directors who each week pick out their favorite music documentary, musical, music-themed fiction film or music videos to discuss.
