Description

I haven't given this record five stars because that's too easy. Anyone can attempt to talk up an album by tacking the largest number of available stars onto a review. But why? Perfection is never achieved, should indeed not be achievable by any credible artist. Perfection is dull. Perfection hides the creative force of art behind a patina of pseudo-scietific purity. "Motorcade of Generosity", on the most other of hands, crawls around on the floor, dirtying itself in an aural reality. Cake - like Pavement - make music that is so gorgeously off key that it resembles at once the energeticmore… beginnings of a band locked away in a basement room, trying to master their own sound, and the remnants of a eidetic performance heard through the fog of a waking mind. Joyful and exuberant, this album carries you along on its own idiosyncratic tidal wave of good feeling.And then it is over. With the sense of time having flown, the final song is completed, and the listener is left with the glistening impression of a sound. An enigmatic footprint on a deserted beach. A forceful urge to investigate further, replaying the entire album in a quest to achieve some sort of hold on the nature of this music that sparkles like so many glorious imperfections. But there is one specific reason for buying this album: it contains the song "Jolene". You - and I cannot stress this enough - would live a life unfulfilled, dreary, and resigned to tragedy, if you were to die before hearing this track.You have been warned.
