Ellipsis Non-Gratis
Ellipsis Non-Gratis
from every pour of the jug of my pseudo pseudo soul comes extra sensory absurdism
non-gratisia jog lamb is fright slow bow being ex trap elated from the
(if you ever want to read reams of my absurdist writings reply to me and
tell me that you would like to read reams of my absurdist writings) people
you york is the new new york catchphrase for the unsatiable admitters that
a hypothetical bird never flew on one something or other
i have been dubbed the future of european pop by a toilet cleaner in grimsby
in the midst of scrubbing to stay in the pub lick fervour favour
bear beauty contests have clandestined my soul into a spare tyre wish-list
withstanding the pressurised carbon copies under terrys beard
of yankee doodle kraut wherein i am in consolable regions round about this whole credit crunch debacle
surrounding euphemisms of torpor in the penultimate schism of my malnutrioned dreams
whey did you remove the newspaper which i had carefully positioned at the foot of the boil
extra terrestrial towel supergrass fantasmagorica for weekends in dromoland castle
which diplocate that my idea of heave N is to sit on a tablechair in a nun furnished room
staring into the brittle distance between neither here nor there like a dufus
entrenched in the we are all so so delighted with our cocks brigade
why are so many people dead or in tumultuous fragrances absorbed
in grate E eating themselves to the higher power that is the windmill mile
by way of supporting the freneticism gouged into the eyeballs of a rare species of mountain goat darning needle
The Seduction Of Rameses
The Seduction Of Rameses
the mealing is fruit jewel for taffeta swashbuckling hordes
we should be bread because gambling is for gamblers
on nocturnal hatchets we precariously lodged
for the tweaking of medusa for the tweaking of medusa
hen fat people run-other people into the ground breaking sounds of deer hooves
realise using the word fat is not disrespectful but rather correct english
enjoyment of the unpredictability of who won the might meet in bars that have
the perfect blend of cruisiness and friendliness and boxers and wellies
keeping unmentionable architecture under unerring raps she deigned to flea
timber i shivered to a psychedelia tony-mono standstill was brown
second to phew that was close to the marzipan moped gliding
throughout the womens soccer team spirits smouldering eyelids shouldering
im not looking to be a sugar daddy i can
how and ever provide the security of a beautiful home
for a guy who is not as financially secure as I am
in the servile mastication of a foppish grinning sole in the servile mastication of THE foppish grinning sole
when the teacher asked the students who theyd most like to sneeze between
she never expected caleb to say dorothy parker and franz beckenbauer
said the showband to the hammer snower while blowing his rose
petals in a crablike fashion across the broom handles bristles

Oh Co Yo Know
Once in Japan, Ono became lonely and depressed; not only was her marriage effectively over, but she received more negative reviews for her performances in conjunction with John Cage. After an overdose of pills, she was committed to a mental institution and kept under extremely heavy sedation. Fortunately, she was rescued by Anthony Cox, a jazz musician, film producer, and friend ofLaMonte Young's who had traveled to Japan hoping to study calligraphy with her. Cox threatened to publicize the callous treatment Ono had received at the institution (her sedative dosage was abnormally high), and secured her release; the two became romantically involved, and when Ono became pregnant, she made her divorce from Ichiyanagi official and married Cox. Their daughter Kyoko was born in 1963, but Cox's sometime volatility put a strain on the relationship, and they separated in 1964. Cox returned to New York, and Ono followed a few months later, after which the couple reconciled.

Proof that Pitchfork.Com has its head up its own arse.
http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/13436-magical-mystery-tour/
6 Beatles albums get 10 out of 10.
Rubber Soul
Revolver
Sgt Peppers
Magical Mystery Tour
White Album
Abbey Road
"Its flipside, "Baby You're a Rich Man", is less successful, ...It's the one lesser moment on an otherwise massively rewarding compilation."
How a 10 out of 10 album can have a "lesser moment" is beyond me.
Then they go and pretend that their approach is that the music is the most important thing to consider when reviewing albums. Ha ha.
"...but whether it's an album, a collection of separate pieces, or whatnot matters little when the music itself is so incredible."
"But the backstory of The Beatles, while fascinating, is inessential to the album's appeal." (methinks it is the merely the backstory that elevates these review scores to 10 out of 10)
"And even Ringo Starr writes a decent song, a country & western number with weirdly thick and heavy production ("Don't Pass Me By"). " (a 10 out of 10 album has a merely decent song?!?)
"Here, (the White Album) they fail, and pretty often, too. But by allowing for that, they somehow achieve more. " but surely not a perfect 10 out of 10?
"The work in question is large and sprawling, overflowing with ideas but also with indulgences, and filled with a hugely variable array of material, some of which might sound great one day and silly the next."
They seem to get higher marks just because they are the Beatles.
How can any fuckin eejit reviewer give an album 10 out of ten when it features self-indulgences, a decent song, or a variable (quality) array of material that fails pretty often?
