Zercon: A Flagpole Sitter: An Analysis

Our redux and reimagining of the 2018 boondoggle review of Scott Walker’s epic 21-minute “Zercon: A Flagpole Sitter (SDSS 1416+13b),” a song equally about a Moorish dwarf of Attila the Hun’s late kingdom as it is a reflection on cynicism, striving, and the artistic struggle to not go up a tall pole and never be heard from again. There are jokes and moving moments throughout, and valuable lessons to be learned. Grease on up and come on down, the air is fine.
