I just recently discovered the incredible David Lynch, cult film director and painter, among other things, is now also a recording artist. His amazing debut album Crazy Clown Time was released on the 7th this month and successfully translates his visual surrealism to a new medium.
Lynch describes his music as modern blues, but postmodern is more like it; woozy synths, twanging electric guitars and processed vocals. The songs on the album are eerie and often confusing, quite like his films.
Nice, I absolutely love his 'Inland Empire', you should definitely check it out if you can handle 3 hours of Lynch-ness.
ReplyDeleteI'll ook into this, thanks for sharing.
Yes, I've seen it. :) I'm not new to Lynch, just to his music.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
I figured, I just wasn't sure whether you'd seen IE :)
ReplyDeleteI saw it a few months after it came out. Can't remember much of it, to be honest. Wasn't blown away by it. I should prob. rewatch it, so I can form a better and well-substantiated opinion about it.
ReplyDeleteMy fav. Lynch movies (in no particular order) are Eraserhead, Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive.
