comfortnoise proudly makes a contribution to zweikommasieben #10 with the column basslines: poltergeists, featuring simon reynolds’ retromania (faber & faber, 2011) and mark fisher’s ghosts of my life (zero books, 2014).
it is accompanied by an illustration that has been specifically created by the zürich based streetartist sierpinski ‘stvan’ triangle (see comfortnoise podcast 039-0413).
although definitively not suitable for philistines, we recommend this book because it contains plenty of fine observations, illuminative insights & useful sociological concepts regarding the cultural value of vinyl records.
below we present quotes that we recognise as conclusions of the authors. (not that we necessarily agree -)
