PITCHFORK GIVES BIGFOOT'S CD A 8.7

Bigfoot:
I Need A Bigfoot: Sasquatch Hits Are For Squares
[Def Jam; 2008]
Rating: 8.7

* Buy it from Insound
* Download it from eMusic

Yet another reunion, you might think, seeing indie-rock icon Thurston Moore's (Sonic Youth) face on that horrid MS Paint art cover. It's actually quite accurate: Bigfoot features Steve Albini on acoustic guitars, Steve Shelley on Fruity Loops and Steve Jobs on iPod. On top of that, Thurston and his Steves decided to collaborate with Merzbow, Wolf Eyes, Soulja Boy and other noise legends. Actually, only reading the cover you can easily think that this album isn't going to be worth more than a 3.8.
But listening to the actual record kind of blows this instant impression away: this isn't your average noise record. As soon as you'll hear Shelley's 4 on the floor deflagrations (actually reminding more Kompakt records than Daydream Nation) on the opening tune, "Her Brother Thinks She's Just A Motherfucking Bitch, And You Know It's Right, Dude" (sic), you'll know that these Sasquatch Hits are going to blast off your dancefloor. We're talking about constantly surprising music (seriously, Steve Albini covering Dragonforce in a country version with Coco Gordon Moore and Xasthur screaming their lungs out over it is pretty much the freakiest musical experience you'll ever hear), challenging and innovative, yes, but always with a pop sensibility. The record's highlight is clearly "I Like 2 Move It, Do U Like 2 Move It Too?", the Reel 2 Real cover, which transforms the lyrics of the original europop hit into something more philosophical, which Socrate would've probably been proud of ("I like to move it move it, but do I actually know why I like to move it move it ? Is it because subconscious parts of my mind are compelling me to do it or just because it's a pleasant way to move my body? And if I find it a pleasant way to move it, is it because I have subconscious orders as well? Either way, you like to, MOVE IT"), while the demoniac bass is still incredibly compelling, pushing you to blast the dancefloor since the first notes.
This is a nice collection of the finest dancefloor music you'll hear this week and of metaphysical landscapes, reminding you of airlock highways - or stuff like that.

CHEWBACCA ADMITS BEING A BIGFOOT FAN

 


"MT: So what are your latest musical crushes?

-Chewie: Bigfoot. I've always liked the fact that they mixed extreme harsh noise with 4/4 techno beats, but lately their tunes have really taken insane and epic proportions. Sasquatch Hits is 2009 album of the year"

BIGFOOT PERFORMED "NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP" LAST NIGHT WITH RICK ASTLEY

But the biggest surprise was still when, after playing a fired-up three seconds grindcore song, Steve Shelley suddenly pumped a psychedelic dub beat, while Moore suddenly played Never Gonna Give You Up's catchy melody in a deafening larsen. Rick Astley then came on stage, coming from the back of the crowd by slamming on the pit. From there on, everything became really crazy, like a fantastic hysteria. People were so on the song that they played it thrice.

THURSTON MOORE PRAISES BIGFOOT ON HIS MYSPACE BLOG

ssup guys... Yeh, the news is legit. Sonic Youth is no longer. I'm feeling a lot happier since I've been playing in Bigfoot, so I decided to, yknow, split the band. Hope it doesn't make you feel bad.
much love
xoxoxo

03. The Wife...
04. Donut-Eating Steevy
05. Fuck Da Yoof
06. Fuck You, I'm Taller Than You (Justice Remix)

Fuck You, I'm Taller Than You lyrics:

Fuck you
I'm taller than you
Yeah fuck you
I'm taller than you

Since the very day I was born,
I decided to get tall,
I ate soup and rock&roll,
All all of a sudden was two meter tall

Fuck you (gospel choir: fuck thou!)
I'm taller than you (gospel choir: I'm taller than thou!)

Rise your head and try to look at the sun
Sorry but the only thing you'll see is me
Hello, how are thing going under
I may spit on your face if I decided to

Fuck you
I'm taller than you
Yeah fuck you
I'm taller than you

A giant shadow overwhelming your body
(yeah I'm copying yr style, fuck you too, Lee)
My oversized skills and I rule with power
I may spit on your face if I decided to

Fuck you (gospel choir: Fuck thou!)
I'm taller than you (gospel choir: I'm taller than thou!)

Now try to mess with me little mofo
I'm two meter high, I ain't no joking
I can break and shriek you, like a shaking hell
(yeah I'm refering to you, fuck you too, Kim)

Fuck you
I'm taller than you
Yeah fuck you
I'm taller than you

Fuck you
I'm taller than you
Yeah fuck you
I'm taller than you
