What is it with this type of music (repetitive, in a minor key, minimal and inconsequential lyrics, 4-blokes-with-guitars)? Like a persistent itch that needs to be scratched it just won’t go away.
How can a band this boring be described as ‘Experimental’ as AUTOKAT have been?‘Experimental’ as in “A new method of sedation: Autokat vs. Watching Paint Dry in a placebo controlled, double-blind, multi-centre trial”?
Come on! Seriously kids, if ‘experimental’ is what you want, then do your homework – go through the history, listen to some classics! Grab a copy of Sgt. Peppers, listen to Wilco, Captain Beefheart, Frank Zappa, The Flaming Lips, or get your dad to dig out his old Jefferson Airplane albums, anything! Stood next to time-tested music, Autokat, and similar bands just don’t cut the mustard. They should grasp the concept and shut up.
