#conan neutron & the secret friends

[best-tv-theme-song]

Polls will start to be posted within the next week or so.

Bracket list under the cut!

UPDATE: LIST CANCELLED

*Starred shows have multiple theme songs or I have combined shows in a franchise in an effort to include as much as possible. These will have preliminaries built-into their polls on the first round. This is how it works: 1. all of the songs will go into a poll together against one other show; 2. the COMBINED votes for those songs will determine which show wins that poll; 3. only the top voted song for that show/franchise will move on, if the show has won the poll. (If you are confused it will make more sense when we start, I promise!)

Tropical Fuck Storm Interview: No Hard Dicks (Maybe Just One)

Photo by Jamie Wdziekonski

BY JORDAN MAINZER

The former members of The Drones have certainly kept busy! I interviewed Gareth Liddiard of Melbourne rockers Tropical Fuck Storm at the end of last year about their first album, A Laughing Death in Meatspace, a collection of spitfire and stream-of-consciousness blues-punk centering around the sociopolitical ramifications of our obsession with technology. Last month, the band released their second record, Braindrops, which combines comparatively personal lyrics with much more subdued, dark instrumentation. It’s by no means an autobiographical record--the songs about relationships are abstract in theme, and there’s still plenty of sci-fi absurdism--but it’s distinct from Meatspace, a different style of songwriting the band has added to its already wide musical arsenal. Oh, and some of the album’s instrumentation was inspired by and actually taken from their live, mostly improvised soundtrack to the Coen Brothers’ No Country For Old Men, which they’re performing again as part of Brisbane Festival on September 26th at The Tivoli. 

Will the upcoming tour and No Country performance yield yet more new music? Not according to band member Fiona Kitschin, who told me over the phone this week that the band is concentrating on touring for the next year. I spoke to her from “the side of the road” “somewhere in East Texas,” on their way to a show in Austin. After the band’s current headlining tour, they’re back home in Australia and then Europe. For now, read on for Kitschin’s breakdown of the record, and catch them tomorrow night at the Empty Bottle with rockers Conan Neutron & The Secret Friends and local punks Basement Family.

Since I Left You: Last time I talked to Gareth, he mentioned you were already working on the follow-up to A Laughing Death in Meatspace. Lo and behold, Braindrops was just released. Did you always plan to release the albums in such quick succession?

Fiona Kitschin: We just wanted to get more music out there quickly. The first record went really well, so we just wanted to get right into the second one and have more songs. Getting back into the studio was kind of the plan.

SILY: How is Braindrops different than Meatspace? How is it a continuation of it?

FK: I don’t know about sounding different. When we recorded the first one, we did one song at a time. The first single we put out was “Chameleon Paint”, the only song we had. The second song we wrote was “Soft Power”, and then we put that out. We were putting out the only things we had. We hadn’t really played much together when we recorded those. After the album came out, we toured a lot, so by the time the second one came out, we were more of a band. I don’t know how it affected the sound, but I guess it’s much more mellow and sad and fucked up.

SILY: The instrumentation definitely sounds queasy--especially “Desert Sands of Venus”. How did you come up with that song?

FK: [laughs] I think we just played it really drunk. We also did a score for the film No Country For Old Men, and that was about 10 months ago, right before we went in to record Braindrops. Some of the ideas for the score became songs on Braindrops. The music for the scene where he goes to the Desert Sands Hotel, that was “Desert Sands of Venus”, which is literally a field recording of Venus.

SILY: Songs like “Paradise” and “Aspirin” are about relationships, which is something new for this record. Can you talk about the inspiration behind those songs?

FK: Not really, because I didn’t write them! [laughs] It was Gareth who did that...Oh, here he is if you wanna ask him!

SILY: Sure!

[asks Liddiard]

FK: He said because on the first album, all of the songs are political, and on the second album, he wanted to do non-political songs. Love songs.

SILY: There’s still definitely some politics on this album.

FK: Yes, just not classic politics. A love song can be political.

SILY: Around the time I was listening to Braindrops, I was listening to a totally different new album that used sci-fi and conspiracy theories to make a larger point about politics today. There’s that here with “The Legend of Straw Men” and “Maria 63″, though the latter is more in the concrete world. It was a funny coincidence. Artists are doing a lot of it these days.

FK: They are! Every song used to be a fucking love song, didn’t it? We were in The Drones for 18 years, doing the same stuff we’re doing now, but it feels like the world is so fucked up now, people are actually interested in [political music].

SILY: When you go into play, do you like to know the story of the lyrics of the songs? Or do you approach your playing and participation in them separately from what inspired them?

FK: I don’t really like to know. I’m Gareth’s partner, so I leave him to do his thing with the songwriting. I don’t want to go into the details of it really.

SILY: How has your role in the band changed as a player, singer, and harmonizer over the past couple records?

FK: I really enjoy singing a lot more. I’m also the manager and the tour manager and everything on that side of things. That’s my day-to-day job, doing all that shit. It hasn’t really changed. But as far as the playing goes, I enjoy singing more.

SILY: What’s the inspiration behind the new album’s title?

FK: [laughs] Someone said “rain drops,” and I thought they said, “brain drops.” I thought it sounded cool, so that became the title of the song “Braindrops”. When it came time to picking an album title, we had our whiteboard out, and that was on the list of contenders. It just seemed to be the best in the end.

SILY: Even if you don’t know what it means, it kind of fits the album thematically and instrumentally. It’s got a weird psychedelic feel to it.

FK: Yeah, it’s an exploding brain. It works.

SILY: What about the cover art?

FK: That was done by a Canadian artist called Joe Becker. He did the last record, but Gaz had just found him online, got in contact with him, and asked him if we could use that painting. This one, we asked him to do a specific piece of art. We gave him the themes of the album, and this is what he put together. We also used his artwork for our 7-inch series [released before Meatspace]. There were lots of hard dicks on those covers, so we asked specifically for no dicks on this one. But if you look closely, he snuck in a little cell phone with a dick pic.

SILY: I’m sure the online censors haven’t caught it yet.

FK: No, it’s quite small.

SILY: How have you adapted these new songs to the live stage? Is it the same approach you took with the first record?

FK: They always come out heavier on stage. We like to do things loud and aggressive. We explode a lot more on stage than we do on the album. We’re not doing all the songs--we’re not doing “Aspirin” or “Maria 63″, at least not yet.

SILY: Is there anything you’ve been listening to, watching, or reading that’s caught your attention?

FK: We’ve just been listening to the podcast Root Of Evil. It’s about the family of the [Black Dahlia murder] main suspect, Dr. George Hodel. It’s funny in a fucked up, sick way. We’ve just been getting in the van and listening to some depressing, fucked up shit right now.
