My children, confined most of the year in a small Brooklyn apartment, love to ransack the apricot trees in their cousins' orchard, as do I.

The arrest of Mr. Matthews came after days of worrying about the community's remaining churches, and about the fabric of a proud, working-class stretch of Acadiana just north of Lafayette, where the global calling cards are not extreme mutations of heavy metal, but the joyous chug of zydeco or the high lonesome wail of Cajun fiddles.

The Philippines of "Insurrecto" is wild and lush, beset by cruelty, boisterous in its embrace of the tacky relics of late-20th-century globalism — a place where Elvis ballads seem to "spring from the bamboo groves"; where the news is full of bodies "piling up at the garbage dumps, in the slums, near schoolyards"; where karaoke singers, possessed by a "maniacal insomnia," wail drunkenly into the night.
At the end of the song, her voice has pitched into a wail, and she sings, You ain't got to want meI'm yours right now I'm yours right nowGon' make you mine The angst pouring out of her matched my own, but uncovered something new — a determination to make this place my own, regardless of its resistance to keep me from feeling at home within it.

As I dusted off my vibrato and sang my heart out with everyone else during "The Trooper" and "Wasted Years," I glanced down at the rows below me, and saw something beautiful: a burly, bald dad bent down teaching his bespectacled son (who was clad in a fresh new Book of Souls shirt and matching hat) how to properly wail away on the air guitar during Adrian Smith's solos.

There was the whoosh of the automatic doors opening on the spaceship's bridge, the coos of furry Tribbles in one of the show's most famous episodes, and the unsettling wail of sirens when it was time to shift to red alert — not to mention the growl of the cartoonish reptilian alien Gorn (pieced together using, in part, the sound of vomiting) and the high-pitched tinkling of a transporter beam.

His distinctive hyper-distorted wail came to fruition after the now-iconic fuzzbox effect pedal was invented and Link Wray first popularized the use of distortion; Allan swirled the two together and came up with his own distinct sound that, quite obviously, still inspires newer generations of musicians—including Joel Grind, who up until now has been best known for the black/thrash mayhem of his main band, Toxic Holocaust, and his skills behind the boards recording extreme metal and punk bands.
Instead, after a falsetto verse or two, the band starts to improvise, the horns start aggressively honking over the beat, the drums start relentlessly thwacking down, the keyboards start spraying out ribbons of glitzy confetti, and Prince proceeds to holler, shriek, speak in tongues, improvise a whole array of inarticulate animal cries and repeat the Winkie chant from The Wizard of Oz. The heavy, sticky, hyperactive kick of the second horn solo could quack through steel; the warbly wail of the third sounds a piercing alarm call.
For a while in the 1950s and 1960s, his voice stood out amid a mounting dissident chorus; in these days of hashtagged political resistance, it is not uncommon to come across portions of his stanzas reconstituted as memes on Instagram and Facebook: I am waiting for my case to come up and I am waiting for a rebirth of wonder and I am waiting for someone to really discover America and wail Based on passages like that, it's not much of a stretch to put Ferlinghetti in the company of skilled songwriters.
The 50s: 'Jailhouse Rock' by Elvis Presley The warden threw a party in the county jail The prison band was there and they began to wail The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing You should've heard them knocked-out jailbirds sing Let's rock everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock The 60s: 'My Girl' by The Temptations I've got sunshine on a cloudy day When it's cold outside I've got the month of May Well I guess you'd say What can make me feel this way?
O goddess of attitudes, yes, ma'am, Madame of the owl tiara, bird woman enthroned, big cog of the cosmos, born from the noggin of Zeus, hear my prayer, because I'm adrift in a sea of words, my boat is cardboard pinned together with newspaper headlines of the latest war, springing leaks that generals plug with their double-talk, duckwalk to the edge of the cliff, and we're holding the bill, still due after ten thousand years, while women wail in shanty shacks, stack cordwood for the winter, open cans of baked beans, bust the seams of polyester pants made by the Chinese.
Her dogged, dynamic, texturally varied folk-postpunk band jumps from the speakers with confidence and glee, and the throaty distortion of her voice fits these songs quite specifically, especially on the album's first half: "Never Be Mine" is the kind of retro coffeehouse ballad so vivid one can't quite place its stylistic source ("Heeeeeee wants to know why"), "Shut Up Kiss Me" is exactly as joyful and zippy as the title suggests, and when "Not Gonna Kill You" deploys a riff I keep expecting will lead to Suede's "Metal Mickey" but instead morphs into another coffeehouse ballad complete with jangle and wail, things could hardly get more irresistible.
