Master Musicians Of Bukkake on Appropriation

"What can happen with a lot of these 'world music' bands is that they think they're above looking at themselves as colonial appropriators, vultures, you know? So I always jest and call our music 'post-colonialcore', and I've always wanted that to stick. Or 'No-Age'. So we always try to keep ourselves in check on that, and the name always helps every time we feel like we're doing something beyond our actual cultural background. It keeps us grounded – 'Oh yeah, that's right, we're from Seattle…'"

--Band member Randall Dunn, in a conversation with Rory Gibb for The Quietus, "Post-Colonialcore: Master Musicians Of Bukkake Interviewed" (July 20th, 2011)
