I doubt there's much more to it than coincidence, but Hua Hsu's Slate piece on "fuck" bands couldn't be better timed. It runs, of course, on the same day that the guy who questioned-- at first humorously, then later, quite seriously-- the same sort of linguistic propriety in a completely different era passed away. This passage from Hsu's piece is especially relevant:But protections against ind...

Track:
Reviews of the 2008 album ??Street Horrrsing?? by the Fuck Buttons are pretty hysterical. By hysterical I mean it seems this album instills laughter and fright in people. It’s been a while since I’ve had an album that unnerved me a little bit. I like the feeling and this album really caught me off guard. It’s filled with layers upon layers of reverberating, delayed, distorted noise. Tha

I ignored it. I can't keep track of all the electronic music that's hitting the atmosphere over the past year. there's caribou, there's burial, there's a TON of really good, INSANE music (like animal collective, and yeasayer, too) being made out there right now. Well, my mind just got ear-fucked by Fuck Buttons. I missed the hype-boat on them last month. All I can say now....is WOW.Get your...

Fuck Buttons - Street Horrrsing

Artist:

Album:
When describing a band to someone, it's often too easy and simplistic to just say a combination of a couple other bands that they sound like. Or worse yet, loosely throw around genre terms that have by now lost meaning. As with Fuck Buttons, I don't really need to worry about such things.

Fuck Buttons + Growing: 4 November 2009 - DC9, Washington DC / Words and Pictures by Mehan JayasuriyaUpon ascending the stairs at DC9 Wednesday night, I was greeted by a haze of digital chirps and static. Growing, a three-piece noise outfit from Brooklyn, had already launched into their set and I couldn't make heads or tails of what I was hearing. Order did start to emerge from the chaos, howev...

Fuck Buttons – Tarot Sport: An Unreview
-
Artist:
Fuck Buttons’ latest album, “Tarot Sport” is due out 15th October after leaking last month. All of the reviews that I have read so far have had to resort to inventing ridiculous superlatives in a futile effort to describe this indescribable record. However, there is some sort of debate as to whether “Tarot Sport” is more pop than avant-garde. The Quietus proclaimed it as a masterpiece
