It Starts With a Birthstone 200 Albums For 2025 # 42 Index For Working Music - Which Direction Goes The Beam

 


Thursday's Bells. The first track from Which Direction Goes The Beam the second album from Index For Working Music. It's  wired and weird.  Velvety, (I'm talking Velvet Underground) We're off  I wonder whether we're moving into a new phase now. Everywhere you look there are dystopic, twisted visions. This is only the latest down the pike. The water is swimming with nightmares.

Only Ones, Magazine, The Cure, Pere Ubu. 13th Floor Elevators, Televisuin, Wire. Bookshelves of worn and greying Penguin Classic Paperback. Opiated dreams. Symbolists, Modernists, Post Modernists, Satirists, Surrealists. Vorticists. Marxists, Bolsheviks, Mensheviks, Anarchists, Nihilists. Pampleteers. Woodwork squeaks and out come the freaks.  Index For Working Music are out on tour next week. Catch them. In the meantime hear this . It's a fantabulous album. There are insects twitching under its skin.
