Eta: this is interesting, from the Wikipedia entry on the album, and relevant to k and gp's conversation about audio v. visual:
"Tal Coat" refers to Pierre Louis Jacob (19051985), aka Pierre Tal-Coat, a proponent of the French form of abstract expressionism, Tachisme. This interest in painting is reflected in his statement that the album was "... an attempt to transpose into music something that you can do in painting: creating a figurative environment. At the beginning of the 20th century, the ambition of the great painters was to make paintings that were like music, which was then considered as the noblest art because it was abstract, not figurative. In contrast, my intention in On Land was to make music that was like figurative painting, but without referring to the history of music more to a "history of listening"".
In one of the first pieces to attempt to theorize the genre, Adam Harper wondered whether vaporwave involved a critique of capitalism or a capitulation to it? His answer: Both and neither. Undecidable.
-Death metal? Thrash metal? I don't know non-jazz sub-genres. But this is really good. I like how the songs are short and to the point. Controlled bursts of fury.
ASS HAMMER
Trying to hide from the eye in the sky
Your ass is getting hammered, dont ask why
Left in the hot sun your buttocks will fry
Mallet of your south cheeks smacks you till you die
Ass hammer! Dont ask why!
Ass hammer! Dont ask
Try
To
Break
Me
Ass hammer

It's not vintage Prince, but it's a heck of a lot better than the stuff he's been releasing for the last decade plus.
