REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE

Robert Pollard: "Richard Davies is one of the last great songwriters on planet Earth." Alright…this is a big one for me, as one of my long-time musical heroes, Richard Davies of The Moles & Cardinal , joins me on this week's episode to let me discuss his body of work as well as his music film pick, The Wrecking Crew !!!! We discuss why no two of his albums are the same (down to multiple re-issues of the same album, with different versions of the songs!), coming from Wales to Australia to form The Moles, their John Peel session, pulling stressed out bagpipe players and unknown trumpet players into his recordings, how writing lyrics got easier for him as he got older, both of us writing original songs for Robert Pollard (Richard with Cosmos and myself with The Takeovers ), how the album Instinct was about being alone and afraid in NYC, working with Poison Idea’ s Slayer Hippi e and Heatmiser ’s Tony Lash on the Cardinal record, being inspired by Ban Roll-on jingles of the 60s, The Beatles' Christmas flexidisc, the majesty of Flying Nun bands, Brian Wilson ’s experiences with The Wrecking Crew , the hell or high water attitude of Richard's songwriting, our situations of being courted iin the 90s and the sinister vibe in it, T. Rex and Flo & Eddie ’s backing vocals, the professionalism and experimentaliism of The Wrecking Crew and how they played on The Byrds' Mr. Tamboruine Man , Carole Kaye’s bass and the freedom in her bass playing, Cher and more!

Welcome to an ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vaults. There may have been no more cut-through-the-bullshit guest than Perla Batalla!!! Getting to discuss her legacy as well as her lovely creative partnership with Leonard Cohen was sparky as hell...and I loved her critical eye and honesty on a film she's a part of (LEONARD COHEN: I'M YOUR MAN). Anyone who is critical of U2's awkward performance in this film with Leonard is always going to be a lifelong friend of mine! Perla forever!!! (Episode 86 originally aired on April 24th, 2025). ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES: On this week’s episode, we are joined by Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter and collaborator with LEONARD COHEN, PERLA BATALLA, who discusses her good friend/creative muse and her thoughts on the film 'LEONARD COHEN: I'M YOUR MAN.' We discuss Perla’s childhood and escape from her family into a life in music, her Mom’s record store, working for T.V. legend Norman Lear documenting The Jeffersons & One Day At A Time, her surprisingly frantic introduction to Leonard Cohen’s music and the man himself, musician Julie Christensen , working with Nick Cave , Rufus Wainwright & Beth Orton , being fired from the rock n’ roll world, how Leonard’s lyrics cracked Perla open emotionally, the pressures of being Leonard Cohen and what audiences expected from him, being a superstar in Europe, his album The Future , Cohen’s work discipline, the flexibilty of Cohen’s work leading artistic interruptations by others, how the concerts for Leonard Cohen came about through legendary producer Hal Wilner , why Leonard did not want to be in the film, the emotions of touring, how Perla worked her magic to get certain songs in the concert, why U2 is so prominent in the film even thought they were not in the concert itself, the problems we both have with this film, how the hell did Mel Gibson become a produer on the film, Laurie Anderson being involved in the prerfomrances originally, Leonard writing songs critizing his record company and more... So join us for a very insightful look into the depths of Cohen's life and music on this week's Revolutions Per Movie!

Hey everyone...welcome to our bi-monthly ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vault! I love this episode because my initial experience of seeing this upsetting, darkly funny film (by the director of The Brutalist) was completely thrown overboard due to my guest Logan Lynn's harmful experience within the music industry when he was younger (which is the subject of his new documentary, The Pain And The Power). A fantastic discussion on a polarizing film that's a hard watch, but never leaves you. (Episode 25 originally aired on Feb 29th 2024). ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES: This week, we talk to indie pop dance legend and Kill Rock Stars recording artist, Logan Lynn, who picked the extremely intense music narrative film, Vox Lux, to discuss. We discussed the realities and tropes of music films, Lynn’s early years as a teenager on a major label, the lack of protection for young artists within creative industries, addressing addiction and trauma in your art, the notion of selling out, backstage rituals, making fun of ‘The Devil’, the Swedish Pop Mafia, how music gets taken out of context, whether or not Natalie Portman a convincing pop icon in the movie and so much more. So get ready to dance through the pain on this week’s Revolutions Per Movie.

My guest this week is Evan Minsker (Critic/Journalist for Pitchfork & the heart behind the amazing punk newsletter See/Saw ) who (...wait for it...) picked a very punk film: Autonomy And Deliberation , by a very Australian AND very punk band The UV Race. And although it has never been publicly released, the director and the band let us watch it so we can discuss it for you! Got it yet?!?!? We talk about why the finished film never reached eyes outside of a few friends in Australia, Evan’s early punk rock roots, the fear of being reviewed on Pitchfork, not being able to get into the venue to see Fugazi and Scratch Acid (so you listen to them outside), the amazing punk scenes and punk labels happening all around the world right now, alternative DIY spaces, being the oldest person at the show (at age 27), Turnstile , how The UV Race has no wikipedia page/follows no one back on social media/embraces broken web links, the poetry of front man Marcus, the mystery surrounding the director Johann Rashid and his film inluences as a child which influenced his filmmaking, Courtney Barnett , the self-depricating tone of the film, the cameos from members of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Dick Diver & Total Control , the soundtrack for the unreleased film, blowing the band money at the Greyhound Track, how the structure of the film is bascially The Blues Brothers ("I’ve got to get the band back together"), how the film is built upon the band’s inner workings/language and sense of humor, Marcus' other band Hot Tubs Time Machine , their also unseen Sci-Fi followup: THE UV RACE DISGRACE SPACE , and we pitch a new film to complete their filmic trilogy.

Hello and welcome to this bonus episode of Revolutions Per Movie. Thank you for supporting what we’re doing…it means a lot. We were in the process of releasing our recent conversation about John Curry and his band Flyboys this week when we heard from Lisa Fancher about his passing. So we've decided to make this episode of EXPLORING THE AXIS: THE ORAL HISTORY OF FRONTIER RECORDS w/ Lisa Fancher available to everyone. Much love to John, his family, and his bandmates. SHOW NOTES: Welcome to Chapter 3 of Exploring the Axis, where we freak out about the genesis of Lisa’s first vinyl release for Frontier Records , the iconic Flyboys S/T 12” EP, an incredible pinnacle of L.A. power-pop-driven punk/garage songwriting. We discuss why the timing was right to release her first record, what the label was originally going to be called, how she first met Flyboys by interviewing them in her parent's living room, why Flyboys won’t let their debut 7” be re-issued, how their 2nd 7” Crayon World is considered a classic of the era & how the sleeves came back in the wrong size, telling Slash to fuck off, why the look of Flyboys was different than other bands in the scene, the long journey to get the S/T EP recorded, recording at Leon Russell’s recording studio, Disneyland vs. hardcore punk, starting to think about putting out a Circle Jerks LP, JFA covering the Flyboys without credit and more!

For this week's Encore Presentation of Revolutions Per Movie, I bring you my 4th episode ever (just listen to my youthful, nervous voice doing the intro here...ha!). I was fortunate enough to discuss one of my favorite music films about one of my favorite bands with one of my favorite people, Nick Agular (Frankie And The Witch Fingers, Mike Watt) . Enjoy! (Episode 4 originally aired on Oct 5th 2023). ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES: This week, we talked to musician Nick Aguilar, who chose the documentary film “We Jam Econo,” which focused on the legendary punk band The Minutemen. Since Nick has performed and toured with The Minutemen’s Mike Watt, he has excellent insight into the world of the LA punk rock scene, SST records, growing up in San Pedro, and, of course, being in the van with the legend that is Mike Watt. So, fellow corndogs, get in and let’s mersh out about The Minutemen and “we Jam Econo” on this episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week I'm joined by the legendary Sally Timms & J on Langford of The Mekons to discuss not only their music documentary The Revenge Of The Mekons but the iconic film Trances about the Moroccan band Nass El Ghiwane (which was the first film Martin Scorsese restored as part of his World Cinema Project). We discuss the mixed feelings both bands had regarding being the subject of a documentary, breaking open the various myths about The Mekons, coming out of the "Elf Rock" of the early 70s and the inevitability of punk rock being created, Dub music being omnipresent in pre-punk, The Buzzcocks as an influence, Northern England weirdo bands, Bob Last of Fast Product signing the band (which made The Mekons break their own strict rule of not recording after their first show), The Mekons meeting musicologist Bill Leader (the Alan Lomax of british folk music), how the band makes music through subtraction, taking older traditions and bending them to your will, what resonated with them about the film Trances and how the film tells the story through the poetic imagery vs. talking heads, were The Mekons supposed to be in the iconic music concert film Urgh A Music War and more!

Welcome to an ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vaults. In celebration of HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT 's 40th ANNIVERSARY celebration, I bring you one of the most joyous Revolutions Per Movies episodes of all time--my deep dive into that amazing doc with WILCO's MIKAEL JORGENSON & JEFF KRULIK--The Co-Creator of HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT.

But that's not all… I also got to blow his mind with surprise guest JEFF KRULIK--The Co-Creator of HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT!!! We discuss Mikael’s endless creativity and how he decides where to put his energy on any given day, the many hours he spent as a teenager making music on his IBM floppy drive computer, doing David Letterman-style comedy audio cassette recordings, how unusual it was to see Mikael with a computer on stage during his first Wilco tour (and how common it is now), how intense it was for him to join an established band like Wilco, tribalism in music scenes, how the documentary is both terrifying and comforting, how shirtless people outnumber people wearing shirts in this film, Mikael’s religious upbringing and its impact on his fear of heavy metal, KISS being in children's TV shows, the genesis of Heavy Metal Parking Lot and how the film found an audience due to VHS tape trading culture, a reenactment of Zebraman’s anti punk rock tirade, the undying loyalty of metal fans, Neil Diamond Parking Lot & Heavy Metal Picnic, Judas Priest’s reaction to the film, Jeff trying to eat Judas Priest’s food backstage, Sofia Coppola wanting to use the film in her work, reconnecting with the stars of Heavy Metal Parking Lot decades later and so much more.

Welcome to this ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vaults. Today, we pay tribute to filmmaker Brian Lindstrom, who sadly passed away recently, with this incredible discussion about the film he co-directed, LOST ANGEL: THE GENIUS OF JUDEE SILL, with his co-director Andy Brown & Aquarium Drunkard's Jason P. Woodbury. Anyone who had the pleasure of knowing or working with Brian will tell you he was one of the kindest, wisest, and big-hearted people ever, and his filmmaking absolutely reflected that. If you haven't seen his films Lost Angel, Mothering Inside, or Alien Boy yet, please take the time to spend with these incredibly powerful films. He will be missed. (Episode 39 originally aired on June 6th, 2024). This week, I’m joined by JASON P. WOODBURY (of Aquarium Drunkard) and filmmakers BRIAN LINDSTROM & ANDY BROWN to discuss their incredible new film LOST ANGEL: THE GENIUS OF JUDEE SILL . We talked about Judee Sill’s gnostic relationship to her music and how she backed it up in her lifestyle, what our introductions to her music were like, Sill’s disdain of being lumped in with Christian Rock & opening for rock bands, her influence on Andy Partridge of XTC, how the filmmakers shaped the film over the past ten years, Tooth & Nail Records, the mythologizing of a subject’s life in documentary filmmaking, Asylum Records and her ups and downs with David Geffen, Some Kind Of Monster , Sill’s vulnerability and ego in her diary writings and drawings, how they chose to animate Sill’s artwork and found her voice, Sill’s influence on a new generation of musicians, her iconic Old Grey Whistle Test performance of “The Kiss,” how the film addresses childhood trauma, addiction, and resilience, what parts of Sill’s life didn’t fit into the film, and the power of Alice Coltrane, Sun Ra, Guided By Voices & SST Records. So join us as we talk about one of the greatest songwriters to ever be part of the cosmos, Judee Sill, on this week’s Revolutions Per Movie.

My Mom passed away this week, so I will be taking a few weeks off to take care of some family matters. I hope you enjoy this tribute to my Mom, and I will be back soon. Thanks everyone, Chris Slusarenko, Revolutions Per Movie Kay Slusarenko: "I’m asked sometimes why I do installations - why I make art based on the aesthetic experience which in the end cannot be fully described, depicted, recorded or explained, and is expensive to build and impossible to sell. All I can say is this is what I'm passionate about. Maybe it also has to do with my background in music. I went to the University of Idaho on a music scholarship and although I switched to art after my sophomore year music has continued to be a major part of my life. There is an emotional response I receive when listening to music which I seldom have when I'm looking at art. Music surrounds me, enters my body and makes me know that I'm alive. Installation work is the closest I have found to duplicating this experience.” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
