[MP3] new Beck: “Harry Partch”

November 19th, 2009 · No Comments


So in case you don’t read any blogs who occasionally report on goofy feuds within the music community, I’ll catch you up. Matt Friedberger of the Fiery Furnaces said that Radiohead were trying to be hip by writing a song about the inventor of the 43-tone scale, Harry Partch. Problem was that their song was about Harry Patch, the longest surviving UK vet of WWI and Matt just misheard that little bit of info. In his statement following that, he said “Matt would have much preferred to insult Beck but he is too afraid of Scientologists.” Now it seems that Beck has released this crazy track as a teasing entry into the non-existent feud. Gotta love that crazy Scientologist.
