Pretty sure I heard this ages ago, but then did I really HEAR it? I vote no.
Listened to it twice this morning, so either way I’ve definitely heard, I mean HEARD it.

When my bewilderment subsides perhaps.
Note: someone should really change the release date on this... 1981 my arse.

I bet if God were real they'd be an omnipotent hermaphrodite or maybe some genderless being. But yeah, Branca was truly doing this NUTS ASS SHIT in the late 70's. Absolute fucking lunacy.
I always go to this vid of him doing a "guitar solo" for inspiration tbh. What a genius. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqHz7cUw4Ls
Imagine seeing something like that in the same year that songs from "Grease" were dominating the airwaves. Like, you'd be terrified.

Parts of this give me post-rock vibes, then I give myself a good hard slap in the face and a dressing down, because that’s not possible, or is it?

Well this is before post-rock but I know exactly what you mean. This thing is so crazily before its time. It almost exists outside of time tbh.

Damn, I've been slacking on homework again

Yeah that was my point, this is waaaay before first wave post-rock, yet I feel like there’s even vague elements of second wave in this. Incredible.

Like I said, LATE SEVENTIES. Early Swans? Sonic fucking Youth??? BRANCA is responsible for that.

Yup, and then Swans and Sonic Youth were an influence on several first wave uk post-rock bands. Bark Psychosis etc.

Literal musical missing link type shit. And it was just because he was so innovative that it even happened. He literally had Lee Ronaldo and Thurston Moore of SY in his guitar orchestra before they did their own shit in Sonic Youth. The trends he set have yet to even die.

The opening bass riff of Oxygen is almost a direct transcription of the opening of Lesson No. 2.
