Blonde Redhead combines elements of Japanese noise rock with avant-garde New York City rock guitars that fluctuate between softness and a buzz-saw grind. The band will do anything to make you notice. Steady, consistent drum beats, free of flashy fills, keep you focused on that guitar whirl, and high-pitched sound effects, which sound as if they could have come off a vintage Atari video game, accentuate it.
FAKE CAN BE JUST AS GOOD, the band's third album, finds Unwound bassist Vern Rumsey filling in for the departed Maki Takahashi, and Rumsey's deep bellows strike a neat balance with those shrieking guitars. Together, they build jagged rhythms, which they can transform into steady riffs in the blink of an eye.
Recorded in Seattle, Washington in October 1996.
Personnel: Amadeo, Kazu (vocals, guitar); Simone (keyboards, drums).
Audio Mixer: John Siket.
Recording information: John & Stu's (10/1996).
Blonde Redhead: Kazu Makino, Amedeo Pace (vocals, guitar); Simone Pace (keyboards, drums).
Additional personnel: Vern Rumsey (bass).
Magnet (p.114) - "[The album] finds Blonde Redhead joined by Unwound bassist Vern Rumsey and stretched to the snapping point on these eight expressions of anxiety, tension and urban angst."
Option (5-6/97, p.95) - "Blonde Redhead's love of New York art rock/no wave/noisecore is profound, and everywhere in evidence....a richly textured, finely wrought mess of a record..."
Melody Maker (4/19/97, p.51) - "...At their more conventional they recall Die Kreuzen, Pere Ubu and even Television. If you don't own anyting by Live Skull or pre-1988 Sonic Youth, you'll love this. If you do, you'll find it pleasantly nostalgic." Fake Can Be Just As Good Music Blonde Redhead Fake Can Be Just As Good Songs | 1. | Kazuality |

Recalling the no wave movement of the late '70s, the self-titled debut of New York City's Blonde Redhead is a glorious piece of dense, art-damaged noise, with songs that move from drifting melodicism to raging aural assaults in the course of a few measures. Taking their cues most directly from Sonic Youth (Steve Shelley produced the album), Blonde Redhead revel in noise and create vast sonic landscapes out of which songs naturally ...

Hank Williams, Webb Pierce, Hank Snow, George Morgan: all were my heroes when I was growing up. I saw George Morgan and Hank Snow at the Grand Ole Opry and that was one of the biggest thrills I had growing up. They all led country music in the direction of the heart. Back then you knew who the artist was after the first few notes of the song, even if it was just released. When I write my songs I try to be true to their traditions. When I write a song I feel like I have inserted my head in a river of feelings, words, and electricity. I ...
