The only people I didn't know are Antheil, Krenek and Szymanowski.
Antheil was notorious for his Ballet Mechanique, which involved using electric fans as instruments.
Krenek composed a jazz opera entitled Jonny Spielt Auf that was very popular in the '20s; he later became a fairly formidable twelve-tone and electronic composer. Interestingly, one canon of his for synthesisers and voice uses thirteen pitches to the octave.
Szymanowski was the great Polish composer of the early twentieth century. He's a little like Debussy, very lush and exotic in sound.
Now I'm up to Phelus's review of the He-Man and She-Ra Christmas Special, and...there's something that's always bothered me. And it ain't the Filmation animation, the corny jokes, or the latent homoeroticism (seriously).
It's this: Why would aliens from another galaxy, and likely even another universe, have any reason to care about an Earth religion that isn't even universal on its home planet? I know, people can believe what they want wherever they are, but why should anyone in this care except the human kids?
Why would any military in the foreseeable future reinstate old sexist guidelines?
why does all romantic music sound so uncannily similar
Because every late Romantic composer wanted to be either Wagner or Beethoven.
But more seriously, I think it has to do with the fact that the Romantic period was really the transitional point between the strictures of late Classical harmony and the many wild things that came after, but it had not quite gotten out of those strictures entirely as far as the basics of melody went. It's all very melodramatic and EMOTIONAL!

I'm awake
I was trying to nap so I wouldn't be sleepy when I went to the store later...but Dad apparently went to the store while I was asleep, making my nap useless :\

I rather like the song. It's... really quite demented, somewhere between funny and unsettling. Actually, this album just keeps getting more out there as it goes on. But that is par for the course with Xiu Xiu.

I'm listening to the song right now. It's pretty cool.
I keep saying I'll pick up Fabulous Muscles at some point, but I never remember. I'm going to have to keep reminding myself to do so.

It's like the difference between Bacon being made out of hams and hams being made out of bacon.
and music is just sound, right?
