Me, Music

I have a review of Joan of Arc’s “A Tell-Tale Penis” up at Paper Thin Walls, along with a brief q & a with Tim Kinsella. (Obligatory link to my JOA-inspired short story “Party Able Model” here.)

One question-and-answer that was cut from the final version that appeared on PTW was this, which also delves slightly into Make Believe’s new disc:

Boo Human and Make Believe’s Going to the Bone Church are being released closely together, and share many of the same musicians. Was there any cross-pollination between the two albums?
Not really. Past records, like the first Make Believe record and Joan of arc, Dick Cheney, Mark Twain were both made in much more overlapping manners and though the two bands definitely exist as yins and yangs of each other for me, this is now true in a much slower and less immediate way than was true a couple years ago. Also, in the past, both bands have been more collaborative efforts by all of the same people and this was much less true about this Joan of arc record. And the Make Believe record had been done and fixed in solution for 3 months by the time the first Joan of arc recordings happened and though of course 3 months is not too long of time, it’s a good cushion between some creative endeavor being entirely wrapped up and another one with its own specific requirements and demands being embarked upon.
