Other Music
While much academic blather has been put to pulp regarding the meaning of the cultural "other," Other Music's pretentious flippancy in adopting the name could be a chapter unto itself. But too much has been said about indie v. über already, so to the ballpoint: Harmony Korine's not-nearly-as-good-as-Gummo background-noise band Ssab Songs gets shelved with special arrivals by the door, while the Smashing Pumpkins can't be found under "In" or "Out." And asking for help is like "Trivial Pursuit" minus its little answer cards.
