"Curiosity."
 
   I found a fascinating review in the Metro newspaper the other day, and only just got round to posting anything here.

And I quote:

" "And What HAve You Done With My Body, God?" is a four-disc box set collating 41 unreleased cuts and demos dating from Art of Noise's early 1980's conception..."

I was purely wondering if this was an inspiration for the band that Kaitlyn fronts?

(Incidentally, the CD collection gets their maximum mark.)

   I stole their name, yes. I figured, what the hell - by the 25th century, that'd be like a modern band naming themselves after a 15th-century troubadour. Which I'm sure has actually happened at least once. (This, BTW, is why the UF Art of Noise occasionally gets listed on playlists, fake rundowns for Iceman's show on Avalon Radio, and so forth as "The Art of Noise NA" - that's a jokey reference to a couple of British shoegazer bands Truss likes who found that there were already bands in the US with their names, and so are known in this country as "The Whatevers UK". :)

Kate's Art of Noise doesn't sound much like the real Art of Noise, though, except when they cover "Close (To the Edit)".

Do they let Saionji deconstruct a junked piano with power tools and a dachshund on stage during the song?

To be fair, his choices were that, Slapbum Waller, and Jerry Dorsey.

If you're gonna pick a stage name, you might as well make it memorable.

"Paranoimia" does tend to run in my head every time I see the words "Network 23", though.

I remember most of the real Art of Noise for their work on my favorite Yes album more than the band that came from it.

<chuckle> I have both versions of that and they're both favorites.

Did you know they did the theme for the Dan Ackroyd/Tom Hanks "Dragnet" film? Just about the only good thing that came out of that movie...
