Thinking Fellers Union Local 282

I Hope it Lands (Communication)
by Joshua Brown

Remember art class in grade school? You’d create a field of color on paper in crayon, paint over it in black, then scratch out a design. A cartoon made by flipping a series of these images would be like one aspect of a Thinking Fellers song. The themes are short-lived, numerous, and quite separate in style and form. One moment its Butthole Surfers circa …Another Man’s Sac, at another, it’s the soundtrack for an episode of CHiPs translated at high speed into an extraterrestrial language of bizarre noises that are at once abrasive to the ear and quite inspirational to laboratory rats.
