S5 E11 - Savage Detectives | toe | Modelo Chelada
from book.record.beer Hosted by book.record.beer
One of our favorites to date, the Nick's and Daniel dive into Roberto Bolano's seminal work, "The Savage Detectives" in the hopes of making sense of the enigmatic form and poetic prose. What it means to engage with art and ultimately become an artist is explored as well as the importance of paying homage to the artists that have come before and the necessity in blowing them and their work to bits. The fellas jump from the Mexico city of the detectives over to Tokyo, Japan to engage with post rock beauties TOE and their 2012 offering, "The Book About My Idle Plot on a Vague Anxiety" the bands second full-length album. A gorgeous instrumental work packed with tasteful movements in a number of genres and ultimately the assertion that the drums fucking wail. Nick M. ends the show by pounding a 24 oz Modelo Chelada of mango and chile for no good reason beyond he is alive, as are we all, so enjoy good art and beer. Cheers!
