You're right. And Zaradny is not on most critics' radar. She's not on top of that genre.

....nope, a critic's darling apparently....from her web-site....she's a sound sculpture-er or so it says somewhere....

Anna Zaradny is known for collaborating with other artists during live performance, in the studio and via multidisciplinary projects/installations encompassing various forms of art. Her practice involves music, video, photography, dance and objects. Anna is also an accomplished and critically acclaimed solo composer and improviser, working with saxophone and sounds generated on laptop, free of borders, open to the effects of chance

Anna Zaradny is a sound and visual artist, composer, improviser. .... who has released three critically acclaimed albums on the Swedish label Fangbomb

....and you're telling me she is not top of the heap stuff, like "sound sculpting" gets better still, oh be still my beating heart...

That's what I'm telling you. You need a big empty room and time for that music. Or dark Berlin clubs.

I did see Soungarden open for Neil on the beach. Good stuff. He didn't play any of that crap.

....he didn't have to, Soundgarden saved him the trouble.....just sayin' eh....

....and yeah I know, they are also critic's darlings, cause they did this so well....

Grunge pioneers who took the heavy sludge of '70s metal and infused it with the raw aesthetic of '80s punk to become an important band of the '90s
.

....about the only thing missing from that melange is a dash of Rush's poetic genius ( or maybe its buried deep in the sludge and "raw aesthetic" and I just never saw it )....

There are Rush comparisons. The lyrics are more taut and they're punk. Not Zeppelin clones. Getty is a beast, but it ended with Moving Pictures. And Cornell's range was greater.

Hey, you want Cinnamon Girl and Ohio on repeat? No shame.

....oh so there actually are legitimate Rush comparisons....cause I meant that as a joke.....oh lord this is much worse than I thought.....and critically acclaimed I'm sure....

....and yeah I've got some Neil Young albums around but can't say they have ever been in anything close to heavy rotation....they're brought out every few years and played and then put away again...so nice try at musical ranging but its not even in the right area code....better reload and fire again....

Albums? Are you morse coding me?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DEivBiNAkFU

....yeah albums. like vinyl eh, yup am one of those poor lost souls who thinks digital sucks farts out of long dead polar bears when it comes to music ( and btw haven't heard any evidence to the contrary....and there have been ample opportunities to do so....but those are stories for another day.... ).....and tubes, love tubes, transistors suck too, not as bad as digital, but they still suck ( though admittedly with some rare exceptions...like VFETs for instance....)...

Ok. Neil had 3-4 good years. Memory dies hard with the saddos.

....which ones were those exactly ?.....I frankly can't remember 3-4 consecutive good years....sure he has produced some good stuff but the output has always been spotty....

....a saddo eh....had to look it up, cause, I guess I'm hopelessly not fashionable...."someone, especially a man, who is not fashionable or interesting or has no friends"...." a person perceived as contemptible or pathetically inadequate".....wonderful....
