Comments on: This is the sound… of violence. http://rue-morgue.com/blog/archives/2009/06/25/this-is-the-sound-of-violence/ Welcome to the Rue Crew's official blog, where the designers and editors of Rue Morgue magazine share their terrible thoughts, odd opinions, anguished artwork and other random scraps of meat not necessarily fit for human consumption.

RA: thank you for the insight on Pajo and the music scene in Louisville. Like many, I first heard Slint upon watching the film Kids and immediately bought the soundtrack. I was blown away when I found out about this cover album. Seeing the two worlds collide is a pleasure. I don't have a record player anymore, so I'm eager to find out if it will be available on CD or turn up for sale on EMusic.

It's kind of a little "post-ironic" and cute for me. I'd prefer to hear something original rather than a "clever" take on something already done to death. Not shit by any stretch. But not worth any serious attention either imo. I dunno. It’s kind of a little “post-ironic” and cute for me.

I can tell you based on his movie rental history that he has excellent taste in horror films. He's the real McCoy as a horror fan. For some reason, the Misfits, Samhain and the work of Glenn Danzig had a major impact on the underground Louisville music scene back in the day, infecting the likes of Sean Garrison (King Horse), Will Oldham (Bonnie Prince Billy) and the members of Slint amoung many others. I like the fact that this influence never really surfaced in Misfits copycat bands, but kind of wormed its way into other musical genres. Pajo's tribute here is a good example.

Do you know who the artist is? The music's pretty good too from the link you provided. Thanks for the heads up! I’m loving the album cover art. Do you know who the artist is?
