Album: Nonentity (Water III: Fan Black Dada)

Appears On (Mixes): Revme.Vox.Com

Song Notes: I've been kinda in a Zoogz Rift mood again lately, and this is my favorite song of his, I believe. It's from the album Nonentity (Water III: Fan Black Dada), and it's sort of a pastiche of bubblegum pop. A like the sound of it, and the vocal line, where it's a sarcastic-yet-bouncy delivery of the lyrics. It's very jokey, but it works very well. I think that Nonentity (Water III: Fan Black Dada) might be my favorite of the Zoogz Rift albums I've got (though I really should get the 2 CD-R set of his entire discography. That'd be awesome.), but all the ones I've heard are pretty good. This was actually released on SST records, too, which might be a little surprising, just because it's not exactly punk, but they also did a lot of avant-jazz kinda stuff, too. Not that this is terribly jazzy or anything. And, hey, they had Negativland, too... well, until they sued Negativland. Oh well. Here is the song! - Rev. Syung Myung Me
