A few thoughts on FFVII: Rebirth viz-a-viz characterization.

1) Main ship: Still Clerith. Soulmates all the way since '97.

2) Character(s) I'd like to see more of: Cissnei, Regina, and… Scotch and Kotch? What can I say? It's fun watching these two goofballs doing their thing. Best announcers, for sure. (And they're Clerith shippers, to boot!)

3) Character I kind of liked, then instantly disliked: Solemn Gus. I was just starting to like this guy, then he had to go and threaten to pimp out half the party. Seriously, man…

4) Most improved player: Zack. What a bro, standing by his two best friends no matter what. Never cared much for him in CC, but he's hereby an honorary Avalanche member.

5) Goodest boi: Red XIII, obviously.

6) Character I'm hoping others finally warm up to: Yuffie. She's still underrated AF, sadly. Rebirth does seem to be gradually changing that, though.

7) Character I didn't expect to like nearly as much as I did: Cait Sith. Seriously, how did they make him go from "not even on my radar" to "possibly one of my favorites"? Good on you, Square.

Elena Setién — Moonlit Reveries (Thrill Jockey)

Photo by Pablo Axpe

Elena Setién’s soft, eerie songs blend folk and jazz, pop and torch music in shivering nocturnal trance-states that haunt the space they live in. She has not, up to now, been much concerned with rhythm or propulsion — hers are not generally songs that make you want to move — but that all changed when she decided to collaborate with Wilco percussionist Glenn Kotche.

The two met when Kotche toured Spain with Wilco in 2022 and soon began conspiring to splice Kotche’s beats to Setién’s witchy melodies. Kotche’s A Beat a Week drum instruction manual served as a jumping off point. Setién constructed “Surfacing” and “Arrival” atop percussive patterns from the book. The process turned collaborative with Setién sending her ideas off to Kotche, him altering or embellishing them and sending them back. The idea of beats filtered into the other instrumentation as well. Setién’s guitar playing, while quiet, has a sharp rhythmic edge. One track, “Pintado II” grew out of Kotche’s On Fillmore project; it emerges as an intricate mesh of tonal percussion and Setién’s narcotic voice.

These are two very different artists who converge without compromising. The music exists in a neutral area that is distinct from either player’s comfort zone. “Asking” for instance, lets fly a rambunctious spray of percussion, a bit that rattles and clatters and intermittently explodes, rampaging all over the kit in a repeating pattern. It runs under the whole song, an ongoing undercurrent of punch and aggression that transforms Setién’s fluid melody, giving it urgency and fire. A cacophony of mallet play — xylophone, vibraphone, marimba, something like that — cascades in like splinters of multi-colored glass. The tune is sharper, more insistent than it might otherwise have been.

The title track is subtler in the way it employs rhythm, framing a baroque folk fairy tale narrative in ghostly motifs of harpsicord, guitar and glockenspiel. “When all our queens/Left wandering/They walked through fields/Through valleys deep,” croons Setién, in a fay, wondering way, amid glittering sonic architectures. Yet even the tracks where Kotche didn’t participate, especially “Coloured Lizards” have a syncopated swagger, a stop start guitar pattern anchoring Setién’s folk romantic delivery. She sounds a little like Josephine Foster on this one.

The idea of collaboration is to take you out of your own head, to prompt new ideas and approaches, and Moonlight Reveries clearly accomplishes that. This album won’t shock or alienate longtime fans of Setién—it’s not that far from what she was doing in Unfamiliar Minds—but it does extend the idea of what this songwriter is capable of. Bravo for that and for the risk worth taking.

Loose Fur - The Double Door, Chicago, Illinois, May 14, 2000

Last year saw the release of that ginormous Yankee Hotel Foxtrot boxed set — I haven't made it all the way through to the end, to be honest. But I'm glad it exists!

The three jokesters pictured above (Jim O'Rourke, Glenn Kotche and Jeff Tweedy), of course, were all a part of YHF's making — and here we've got their first live appearance together during the Noise Pop festival way back in the year 2000. Not sure if they were actually called Loose Fur at this juncture, but that is what they would be called eventually. They are definitely already loose! It's an occasionally meandering performance, but the trio generates plenty of sparks, especially towards the end, when Kotche takes "Sally, Free and Easy" into the stratosphere.

Loose Fur would go on to make two LPs (not including O'Rourke's Insignificance, which features Glenn and Jeff prominently) ... and apparently there is a third album that is almost done! “When Jim and Glenn and I get in a room together, Loose Fur records just happen,” Tweedy said not too long ago. “Pure forward momentum and then a sudden realization that we’ve completed a record and it sounds like us, and not very much like anything else.” So ... how about getting in a room together and finishing it up, guys?

Song Review - Wilco - “Evicted”

Promotional materials declare Wilco’s forthcoming LP is a move away from “their country-influenced roots” and back toward “their more familiar progressive and experimental rock territory.”

Which makes “Evicted,” the lead single from Cousin, sound really awkward because, despite some atmospheric flourishes, the track is totally country- (and folk-) leaning as Jeff Tweedy sings:

Am I ever going to see you again/I’m evicted/from your heart/I deserve it

Out Sept. 29, Cousin is produced by Cate Le Bon, who is said to have brought “her unique musical perspective to the band’s trademark sound, and provided them with an inspiring new challenge to push their musical boundaries.” The band is obviously trying to build buzz, but “Evicted” jibes with the promotional material in the same way the not-guilty pleas from rhymes with Fondled Dump jibe with the evidence in his indictments.

And the song isn’t even very exciting or clever.

Grade card: Wilco - “Evicted” - C

8/1/23
