Because LF introduced me to Math Rock in general and the loving awesomeness that is Hella, I feel like I should share the wealth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CuCa1uItjM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U15uIa3ynEw Hella is amazing because, even though their music is nearly all instrumental (There's No 666 in Outer Space has full vocals and a 5 person band, and it's incredible) their music, to me, kind of boils down America in our time. It's this brilliant kind of controlled chaos, like Zach Hill's drumming is about to abandon all rhythm at any moment and break down into a cascade of noise (which it sometimes does). I don't know, what they do is similar, in my mind, to what the Beach Boys and Kraftwerk did for their respective times and places. Just a beautiful, chaotic explosion of intense music that gives a perfect sonic description of our society.
