about

Notes from John Dentino:

Rhoda Penmark explains things to her mother. From The Bad Seed, which most of us saw as a film based on the play by Maxwell Anderson, based on the 1954 novel by William March, who was already known for his 1933 recollection of WWI, Company K.

Ron and Magie wanted to do a theatrical production of the play. They settled on this song, set to a whole tone scale.

I remember hearing Francois Truffaut complaining about the film version, saying that its view of the early roots of sociopathic behavior was wrong, and although it might be pleasing to scare ourselves as adults by seeing innocence maligned, he felt that childhood was the "victim."

If Truffaut's overly romanticized view of childhood isn’t your cup of tea, you have to admit that The Bad Seed trades on our ingrained Puritan fear of children as untamed, wild creatures who need straight-back pews and the lash, and if it doesn’t ring true to life, it’s only a horror movie.

The Fibonaccis Los Angeles, California

Welcome to The Fibonaccis official Bandcamp page. The band rose from the early-'80s Los Angeles art punk scene and drew from a wide range of ideas and influences. It was active until 1988, with a brief exhumation and CD retrospective in 1992. The name comes from Leonardo Fibonacci, the 14th century Italian mathematician from Pisa.
