Fuck. Also: Tits.
about 1 year ago

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...

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...

Street Horrrsing
about 1 year ago
Blog post image preview

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

New Records: Fuck Buttons- Tarot Sport
16 days ago

We’ve been hot on the heels of this release ever since it’s astonishing album cover (above) became a public image. The word trippy, however hackneyed the phrase may be, seems a pretty apt way of describing the alien design, and it left fans in eager anticipation of a release equally as alien and starting. The [...]

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 – Tarot Sport: An Unreview
about 1 month ago

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

Fuck Buttons: Tarot Sport (Reviews)
16 days ago

The UK duo return, this time nimbler and more adept.The first Fuck Buttons LP, last year’s Street Horrrsing, sprawled without actually doing anything. Empty gestures and energy directed towards no eventualities. Folk were disarmed by their readiness to balance the noise with big melodic statements, but it was done without finesse. Their live shows around the time were predictable in the way the.
