The gist of the assignment is to compare and contrast the album linked above (“Prom Night After Party in Ed Gein’s Basement”) to The Smiths and Radiohead, two bands the teacher chose to represent the 80s and 90s respectively (we just got off a unit on those two bands, now doing avant garde stuff).
The assignment says “800 words discuss the relationship between art and listenability the band Tunky & Longface represents and how that relationship compares/contrasts with your views on Radiohead and The Smiths. Include a critical reading of two songs from the Tunky & Longface album to defend your thesis.”
