Better late than never, I suppose:
Album: N/A. You can find it on Theoretical Record, a compilation
Year: Some time between 1977-1981
Genre: No Wave
I'm not going to call myself an expert on the no wave scene by any stretch of the imagination, but it was definitely a revolutionary movement, and Theoretical Girls were a very creative group. Some people might know them as the first home for Glenn Branca, who later developed a big name for himself as an avant-garde composer. This song puts the band's talent to use, creating a tapestry that mocks the advent of computer dating in a gloriously before its time piece. It 's repetitive and tense, raw and energetic, quirky and creative all in one song.
