![]() ![]() Title: String Quartet in Four Parts Artiste: John Cage Genre: Avant-Garde Familiarity: Zero Track 1(Hate) Fairly staid and boring I have to say. I never quite realised how uninteresting violins and cellos can be without anything else to back them. Sending me to sleep. Track 2(Hate) Bit more atmospheric, a little more to it. Still slow and generally tedious though. Seventeen minutes of this! ![]() Track 3(Hate) And now forty-****ing-two minutes of this! Frownland, why do you hate me? I think I'd rather listen to Beefheart. Seriously. I get the impression here of that suspense music they use when someone is walking slowly up a flight of stairs, anticipating something horrible at the top. But it must be a very long flight of stairs, cos this goes pretty much the same for the forty-two minutes it runs for. I can feel my will to live slowly draining away... Track 4(Hate) Nothing could save this album now! End result: I don't think I've been so mind-numbingly bored in a very long time. Never again! So, Love or Hate? What do yaz think? A Hate, obviously. Chances of a full review:0/10
