It was a great show, featuring some of the stellar scribes (see image below) from the Clockwise Cat Re-Meow issue, released back in 2022. There was also an open mic at the end, and I read two poems. </p><p>Thanks so much to Marc Vincez and Cassandra Atherton, gracious hosts of the always amazing Lit Balm!

color: #333333; font-family: Raleway; font-size: 34px; line-height: 45px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative;">Nostalgia for the Downtown Slacker: Bertoglio's 'Downtown 81' and Linklater's 'Slacker'</h1><div style="background-color: #112233; color: #aabbcc; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13.3705px;">by Alison Ross</div><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">I've become preoccupied with two films that fascinatingly document time and place: Richard Linklater's <em>Slacker</em> (1990), and Edo Bertoglio's <em>Downtown 81</em> (filmed in the early '80s but released in 2000), starring a then-unknown Jean-Michel Basquiat. Having recently watched <em>Downtown 81 </em>on the big screen for the first time, I was struck by how similar in tenor it is to Linklater's ground-breaking movie. It's almost as if Linklater was indelibly influenced by the scrappy urban fairy-tale made in the 1980-1981 era.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">The parallels between <em>Slacker</em>, set in Austin, Texas teetering on the brink of the '90s, and <em>Downtown 81, </em>which takes place in<em> </em>early '80s New York City, are striking. Indeed, unorthodox ideas can emanate from minds daringly unfettered by constraining precepts.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">Unlike <em>Slacker</em>, <em>Downtown 81 </em>has an actual plot, albeit a flimsy one. Its<em> </em>plot is subjugated to the unkempt visual aura of '80s-era Lower East Side New York City (graffiti-scribbled subways and structures, ruins resembling blitzkrieg-era London). There are many other divergences between the two films, but the convergences provide intriguing fodder for cinephiles to feast on.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">Both movies exult in protagonists who inhabit starkly urban environments: the bohemians, the artists, the misfits, the freaks and weirdos.They both use era and settings as explicit and enticing backdrops. After all, both cities were glorying in pre-gentrified dishevelment. In the case of NYC's Lower East Side, there's the "war-zone" milieu, upping the ante from gritty to just plain eerie.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">In <em>Downtown 81,</em> Basquiat's Jean is an emerging artist. He's perpetually broke, a hapless but happy nomad who wanders the streets mingling with druggies, musicians, and graffiti artists. Along the way, he spatters the city walls with his tag-hieroglyphics. Meanwhile, the characters in <em>Slacker</em> live in cheap-rent dwellings and have a similar vagabond spirit as they float through various regions of Austin where they encounter other wildly off-kilter characters.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">The peripatetic spirit of the two movies lends them a dreamy quality, though if forced to pigeonhole into genres, it would be fair to say that <em>Slacker</em> is surrealistic while <em>Downtown 81 </em>is magical realism. <em>Slacker</em>'s multifarious personae can be unsettlingly jagged, whereas <em>Downtown 81's </em>characters are ethereal and yet ultimately rooted in reality -- most are real-world artists and musicians on the verge of greater renown.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">In <em>Slacker</em>, conversely, the characters are obstinate oddballs -- some of whom actually played in Texas bands at the time but are otherwise anonymous. Both movies showcase characters who are blissfully aimless, anarchic souls discretely or overtly spurning a predictable, soulless society.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">Another far less explicit, even amorphous similarity between the two films involves their respective influences. <em>Slacker</em> -- in particular, its meandering tone -- was inspired by French New Wave movies such as Godard's <em><a href="https://www.popmatters.com/godard-breathless-2496135588.html" style="color: #f0991d; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_self">Breathless</a></em>. <em>Downtown 81 </em>was invigorated by the New York music movement No Wave, which reveled in atonal discordance. Bands like DNA, James Chance, James White and the Blacks, Tuxedomoon, Suicide, and Lydia Lunch appear on the soundtrack and in some cases, in the movie itself.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">Indeed, <em>Downtown 81 </em>concentrates on showcasing music and musicians. In addition to No Wave, there's the burgeoning hip-hop scene, genre-defying bands like Kid Creole and the Coconuts, and even Blondie appears in a kitschy cameo. Other luminary and inventive artists, filmmakers, and writers such as Fab 5 Freddy, Amos Poe and Glenn O'Brien also make appearances.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;"><em>Slacker</em>'s main claim to fame comes in a more academic incarnation: Louis Mackey, a well-known philosophy scholar at UT Austin (now deceased). But to its (musical) credit, the movie features (in character guises) local luminaries in the form of the Poi Dog Pondering vocalist, the Butthole Surfers' drummer, and several Glass Eye musicians.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">At the time of filming, Austin was cherished for its live music scene, funky aesthetic that can best be described as "cowboy bohemian", and reputation as a progressive oasis in a stubborn GOP stronghold. NYC, naturally, was internationally iconic, and needed no elaboration.<br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #434446; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 18px;">Both cities have now transformed into less-intriguing-but-still-interesting places. Both are corporatizing and homogenizing in dismaying ways that engender nostalgic memories of their more colorful pasts.

margin: 0px 0px 10px;">One of the most potent post-punk albums in history was released 40 years ago this past April. That album, <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em>, by <a data-id="https://www.popmatters.com/tag/the-cure" data-type="URL" href="https://www.popmatters.com/tag/the-cure" rel="noreferrer noopener" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #f0991d;" target="_blank">the Cure</a>, not only helped shape the post-punk sound, but it has deeply impacted popular music in both nuanced and obvious ways. At the same time, it’s an album that defies easy pigeonholing, sculpting a singular soundscape, and inhabiting its own claustrophobic universe.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">Most saliently, <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em> is the album that cemented the Cure as a formative musical force, even as the band’s more commercialized albums, such as <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me</em> (1987) and <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Disintegration</em> (1989) are better known. <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith </em>was the second in a trilogy that was inaugurated with the celestially solemn <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Seventeen Seconds </em>(1980) and culminated in the punishing nihilism of 1982’s <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Pornography</em>.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">Back in the mid-1980s, when I first discovered the Cure and feverishly bought up all their albums, <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em> was not one that stood out. It seems I was incapable of grasping the album’s full cosmic glory until my musical tastes matured, decades later. Nowadays, I find <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em>’s glacial minimalism mesmerizing.</p><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em;"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper" style="box-sizing: border-box; position: relative;"><div class="rll-youtube-player" data-id="0xrZ61cuKLk" data-query="feature=oembed" data-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0xrZ61cuKLk" style="box-sizing: border-box; height: 0px; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-bottom: 435.219px; position: relative;"><div data-id="0xrZ61cuKLk" data-query="feature=oembed" data-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0xrZ61cuKLk" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><img alt="" class="lazyloaded" data-ll-status="loaded" height="360" loading="lazy" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/0xrZ61cuKLk/hqdefault.jpg" style="border: none; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; display: block; height: auto; inset: 0px; margin: auto; max-width: 100%; position: absolute; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s; vertical-align: middle; width: 774px;" width="480" /><div class="play" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: initial; background: url("https://r7k2t3x9.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/plugins/wp-rocket/assets/img/youtube.png") no-repeat; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; height: 72px; left: 387px; margin-left: -36px; margin-top: -36px; position: absolute; top: 217.609px; width: 72px;"></div></div></div></div></figure><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em>, in a sense, could be considered a concept album. It focuses on the motif of faith as both a religious and personal construct. All the songs overtly or covertly touch upon the subject. The eight songs on the compact <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em> are bookended by the haunting dirge, “The Holy Hour” and the more contemplative title song.</p><iframe ad="didna" hindsight="7969aae6-de31-1025-28a2-498b720e23c1" id="hindsight-ads-iframe" style="border-style: initial !important; border-width: 0px !important; box-sizing: border-box; display: block !important; height: 320px !important; margin: 0px auto !important; max-width: 670px !important; width: 670px;" unit="related_content"></iframe><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">“The Holy Hour” is a grim song musically, and darkly introspective lyrically. Here, a 22-year old Robert Smith muses about his agnostic leanings –he attends a church service to explore his capacity for religious belief, only to discover he fiercely questions such belief. Indeed, the church environment ends up being an oppressive milieu for him.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">Aside from exploring interesting themes, the lyrics present an interesting structure: each verse is syntactically similar to the previous, and also builds to a climax in which the singer and lyricist desolately declares his inability to harbor religious conviction:</p><blockquote class="wp-block-quote" style="border-bottom-color: initial; border-bottom-style: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-color: rgb(238, 238, 238); border-left-style: solid; border-right-color: initial; border-right-style: initial; border-top-color: initial; border-top-style: initial; border-width: 0px 0px 0px 5px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 17.5px; font-style: italic; line-height: 1.44; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 10px 20px; position: relative; text-align: center;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">i kneel and wait in silence<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />as one by one the people slip away<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />into the night<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />the quiet and empty bodies<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />kiss the ground before they pray<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />and slip away…<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />i sit and listen dreamlessly<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />a promise of salvation makes me stay<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />then look at your face<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />and feel my heart pushed in<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />as all around the children play<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />the games they tired of yesterday<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />they play<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />i stand and hear my voice<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />cry out<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />a wordless scream at ancient power<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />it breaks against stone<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />i softly leave you crying…<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />i cannot hold what you devour<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />the sacrifice of penance<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />in the holy hour</p><cite style="box-sizing: border-box; display: block; font-size: 0.57143em; font-style: normal; line-height: 1.5; margin-top: 1.5em;">The Cure’s “The Holy Hour”</cite></blockquote><p id="block-b3fe3555-7b0f-4207-aa79-ce6bb0ee0408" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">These lyrics intensely resonate with atheistic ideologies about the near-futility of religion. The brooding music lures the listener into a transcendent trance. Smith had not fully developed his voice during the <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em> recordings, and yet his ghostly vocals hold a strange sway, seemingly emanating from an otherwordly cathedral. </p><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em;"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper" style="box-sizing: border-box; position: relative;"><div class="rll-youtube-player" data-id="vx2lTTWv0Jw" data-query="feature=oembed" data-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vx2lTTWv0Jw" style="box-sizing: border-box; height: 0px; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-bottom: 435.219px; position: relative;"><div data-id="vx2lTTWv0Jw" data-query="feature=oembed" data-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vx2lTTWv0Jw" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><img alt="" class="lazyloaded" data-ll-status="loaded" height="360" loading="lazy" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vx2lTTWv0Jw/hqdefault.jpg" style="border: none; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; display: block; height: auto; inset: 0px; margin: auto; max-width: 100%; position: absolute; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s; vertical-align: middle; width: 774px;" width="480" /><div class="play" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: initial; background: url("https://r7k2t3x9.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/plugins/wp-rocket/assets/img/youtube.png") no-repeat; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; height: 72px; left: 387px; margin-left: -36px; margin-top: -36px; position: absolute; top: 217.609px; width: 72px;"></div></div></div></div></figure><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">“Faith” the song has a riveting, bleak beauty. It is a fitting ending to a stunningly subtle album, and it elaborates on the ideas first touched on in “The Holy Hour”, asserting that there is nothing left but faith. Not a corrosive faith in supernatural deities, mind you, but a more buoyant faith in humanity. The song nicely enfolds the emotions of anger and angst, and even wonder and joy at being alive.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">“Primary” is the second song on <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em> and is the most upbeat number on an album otherwise overcast with somber skies. This is not to suggest that it is a happy song, but it is vigorously driven by chugging bass guitars that purely embody the post-punk ethos. Thematically the song is a topic that Smith forever obsesses over” the inexorable decay of youth as we move through life.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">“Other Voices”, the third track, is sublime for its echoing, cavernous vocal effects, and a bassline that betrays a vaguely funky beat. The poetic and dreamy “All Cats Are Grey” and the deliciously gloomy and ever-so-slightly cheesy “Funeral Party” further imbue the album with murky colors and an austere impressionistic sense.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">“Doubt” is the song that some fans profess to be the weakest on the album, one that destabilizes the album’s morose mood with its frenzied punk aesthetic. But “Doubt” is an essential piece to move the album forward. Its vitriol offers odd respite in such a doom-laden atmosphere; sometimes melancholy is too muted an emotion, and we need the exuberance of anger to help us re-focus our energies.</p><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em;"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper" style="box-sizing: border-box; position: relative;"><div class="rll-youtube-player" data-id="B59eJ4VWGhU" data-query="feature=oembed" data-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/B59eJ4VWGhU" style="box-sizing: border-box; height: 0px; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-bottom: 435.219px; position: relative;"><div data-id="B59eJ4VWGhU" data-query="feature=oembed" data-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/B59eJ4VWGhU" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><img alt="" class="lazyloaded" data-ll-status="loaded" height="360" loading="lazy" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/B59eJ4VWGhU/hqdefault.jpg" style="border: none; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; display: block; height: auto; inset: 0px; margin: auto; max-width: 100%; position: absolute; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s; vertical-align: middle; width: 774px;" width="480" /><div class="play" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: initial; background: url("https://r7k2t3x9.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/plugins/wp-rocket/assets/img/youtube.png") no-repeat; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; height: 72px; left: 387px; margin-left: -36px; margin-top: -36px; position: absolute; top: 217.609px; width: 72px;"></div></div></div></div></figure><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">“Drowning Man” the penultimate song, is perhaps the centerpiece of Faith, and the glum glue that holds the whole thing together. The song was inspired by the literary fantasy <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Gormenghast</em> novels by <a href="https://www.mervynpeake.org/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #f0991d;">Mervyn Peak</a>e. In the story, the character of Fuschia ends up accidentally drowning herself owing to heartbreak. The song covers this aspect of the story. Musically it epitomizes the icy sting of post-punk and captivates the senses with its drum pad and “claptrap” effects. It hypnotically captures the suffocating sense of being swept away in a flood.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 19px; margin-block: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em> comes from a haunted, solipsistic place. Every Cure album abounds in merits, but <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Faith</em> seems to be the one that is the most obsession-inducing.
