.. About This Release .......................................
: :
: The Continental OP is the pairing of Will Oldham and :
: David Pajo. The two's first collaboration under that :
: name was a pretty worthless compilation track on Songs :
: for the Geographically Challenged in 1997. Their second :
: collaboration is the soundtrack for a student film, :
: "Slitch," directed by friend Dianne Bellino. :
: Drag City has released the soundtrack in a special :
: DVD/CD format. The bottom side is a DVD that includes :
: the full 23 minute movie, director commentary, and a :
: video for the Palace song "Come In" for which Bellino :
: did some animation. The bottom side is a CD that :
: contains the 8 song soundtrack. :
: :
: Most of the tracks are mood pieces meant to enhance :
: their corresponding scenes. The guitar part of "Faster" :
: is great, its soft sound giving off a carefree vibe for :
: the goofy plucking sounds to play off of. "La La La" :
: has a similar feel, mixing a bed of cello with the :
: sing-songy repetition of "la la la." Some of the rest :
: of the mood pieces are too fragmented or unadorned to :
: be interesting on their own, but that's to be expected. :
: The soundtrack also includes two Mekons-like hard rock :
: songs meant to correspond to the music Slitch listens :
: to on her walkman. "James Tired" is just plain old :
: horrible garage punk, but "Magnifico" works despite the :
: fact that no one is taking themselves seriously. Since :
: the music is different than the norm for both Pajo and :
: Oldham, this soundtrack is not something you will :
: return to very often, however it replishes hope for the :
: potential of the Continental OP pairing that the :
: previous recording had completely dashed. :
: :
: "Slitch" the movie is worth a viewing. The word :
: "slitch" evidently is a mashing of "slut" and "bitch" :
: and is used as a nickname for the film's main character :
: by her two evil step-sisters (the existence of which :
: gives the film a fairy tale-like feel). The film's main :
: subject matter is desire and how it can rule our lives. :
: The Slitch's life is one of sexual conquests, and we :
: see three here: one just ending when the movie begins, :
: one failed attempt with The Surfer who has just moved :
: in next door (played by Will Oldham), and one that :
: starts just as the movie ends. :
: Will Oldham's appearance in this movie is pretty :
: substantial, and it is entertaining to see the Bonnie :
: Prince portray someone not-quite-there, as he flusters :
: his words when getting hit on by the Slitch and is :
: hypnotized by some surfing videos while on their only :
: date. :
: The core of the film, though, is the Slitch. Not her :
: words or her actions, but the look on her face as she :
: rides her bike after just giving a guy a blowjob, rolls :
: around on her bed thinking of her next conquest, and :
: attempts to flirt with a homely convenience store :
: cashier. :
