[edit] Non-U records

Does anyone know if "Non-U Records" was The Proletariat's own label? If so, the name is a nice in-joke. It would be worth knowing what kind of business they did, whether they tried to run the business by the band's espoused political philosophies, and if they recorded any other artists. / edg 03:23, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Angular guitar sound

Non-musician, non-rockcrit readers such as myself might not understand what an "angular guitar sound" is. Does that mean:

  • dissonant?
  • abstaining from power chords?
  • avoiding rhythmic chord progressions?
  • diverging from chord structure implied in the bass and melody lines?

For encyclopedia purposes, it won't be sufficient for people who have all heard this sound to agree on what to call it, unless we can explain it here, or link an article explaining the concept. / edg 19:04, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, in a perfect word we would have an article describing it (and all the terms listed in List of Music Genome Project attributes, etc). Personally, I don't find The Proletariat scores super-high on my intuitive definition of the term. But it's used by the sources... Pete.Hurd (talk) 21:36, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
