yup, still a moron

Viggo Mortensen and someone named Buckethead have a new CD out…

…and it's dedicated to Noam Chomsky:

Viggo and Buckethead's new music and spoken word cd is now available at Perceval Press. The description of the cd reads: Dedicated to Noam Chomsky and using William Blake, Jonathan Swift, and Rumi's prescient wordplay as its point of departure, Pandemoniumfromamerica is a sonic snapshot of 21st century disorientation and dissent.

Featuring the nuanced wizardry of guitarist Buckethead and compelling turns from Viggo, Henry, Elijah, Dom, Travis and Billy, Perceval's latest music release is a collection of spoken word exercises and aural collage that wanders mournfully through high lonesome minimalism and dense atmospheres in search of redemption.

Viggo bloody well ought to be in search of redemption, for it appears that he roped some of his hobbit costars into participating in this project.

Speaking of Noam Chomsky and LOTR, here is a brilliant sendup of Chomsky, poking a bit of fun at Return of the King (the film, mostly) along the way.
