Finally, the first real comparisons in this entire comment section.

Wth

i always thought certain jandek songs could be used as soundtracks for Stan Brakhage films

I'm surprised Tarantino hasn't used stuff like this!

And that is called The Principle of Polarity 😊

seriously, only song ive heard of him thats not atonal

@@cameronschotter3545 There's plenty. His first period of music was all atonal blues. After that things got more melodic. Listen to I'm Ready, I'll Sit Alone and Think A Lot About You, and Time and Space to get started. And give those atonal albums a try. Think of them more as spoken word. That's really what they are, actually. Spoken poetry. Listen to I Knew You Would Leave, it's a beautiful piece. He did some recent albums that were just reading, with no accompaniment at all. Just writing.

What are some of his best spoken word albums / songs? I can’t seem to find any

This guy performs live? Jesus. What dumb cock-smoker actually pays for this wanky shite?

@@cakesnatcher4541 seeing you all over his videos. it’s kind of hilarious. Hope I see you again. If I do I’ll say what’s up.

Pink Floyd?

His vocals sound like Roger Waters on Benzedrine and his guitar playing is like David Gilmore with a railroad spike through his head.

@@PaulMcMinotaur I love this

@@synthmalicious7541 dude i don't remember posting this but i have no idea who i was referring to as "PF" LMAO

That's the beauty about Jandek imo. There's just so much from where you can dig. And sometimes you just find an awesome gem among all those other linear strumming weird guitar songs he makes. My favorite is "I'm ready".

You have good taste

Lyrics transcribed most accurately (by nofxfonofx, on the tisue mailing list) Let's burst upon the grandeur Second to see the same And when it's time To find a flame To post upon your picture I'm done too far I see You build a place for me I cry upon a cornerstone You there to find a phone You turn around today You burn a land away You smile, say it's OK I fail to see the day And if you go away I will wait here and miss you Join hands and love the way Be born again today I feel quizzical If that's the reason And there's no question I see the night long And when this time's over There'll be another one To be in front of this one Moving on to the next one And if the drug hurts It's cold and your neck hurts The ink don't spill no more On letters read before I leave at dawn today To find another way 'Til I dream I see the light That brings my fortune here tonight

depois de 4 anos voltei aqui só para dizer que eu ainda te amo

obrigado por esse comentário

so true. His early albums especially--they use the open strum guitar to convey such a tone, so downtrodden but dreamy... and a book of his lyrics would exceed pretty much all the poetry I've read in the New Yorker. (And the fact that almost no one will listen to Jandek with you makes it all the more anthem of the loner.)

Same...

Just sounds like an asshole who doesnt know if he wants to solo on guitar or raise his voice on the mic. You pulled your comment out your minds asshole.

@@cakesnatcher4541 what an utterly meaningless statement, where else do you pull comments from? did yours come from your asshole?

its about atmosphere and his ability to craft an incredibly creepy one due to how sparse and emotional it all sounds. I can picture myself being asleep in a completely empty room, i know there are rats in this room but I cant see them, though I can hear them running around and chewing on things from time to time, closing my eyes and pretending that they aren't there does nothing.
