Twenty-first century-noise rock.
When I was in school in the nineties, postmodernism was one of the zeitgeist's more prominent conceptual elements. At first I didn't quite get that it wasn't about chaos, that it was trickier than that. If in the far past we mostly lived in villages, with everyone sharing the same type of food, same type of music, same type of clothing, etc. etc. etc., then postmodernism was more like living in Manhattan, in which people are still living in villages, it's just that they are cheek-by-jowl with each other, and frequently interwoven, and blend without ever really losing their separate identities. So this song is a very pretty sing-a-long (that sounds as if it could have been recorded by Alan Lomax), with distorted electric guitar. Neither predominates, and their coexistence is either incongruous or inevitable. Maybe both.

Thank you very much. No one has understood our music so perfectly.
Love, Abigail
