Re: Now Playing

Sewer Election - Efterspel (Dead Gods) Great late night listen; sounds like Dan is murdering a violin throughout both sides of the tape. I can faintly hear a sound at the end of Side B that is reminiscent of a scream an old neighborhood friend used to do. It's very creepy, but I also fell asleep li...

Re: K2

Timeline of K2 discography is eclectic. Early 1980s releases under his real name Kimihide Kusafuka ( Re-Musik , Demise Symphonika , both originally DD Tapes) were largely in genres of synth / dark ambient and on the surface bear little resemblance to the K2 we know today. Then, the surfrock-infused...

Re: Dislikes and turnoffs

As of recent, modern cut-up has been bothersome to listen to; not much variation in sounds being used to the point where it makes modern wall noise look inventive.

Re: Now Playing

Max Eastman - Model of Malehood (Tribe Tapes) Turntable and tape creeper loops from a modern day freak master. Love Max & I spent my morning jamming this. Had a very bad nightmare right after this CD finished. That’s the best endorsement I can give it. Kyle Flanagan - Stuck Inside (Anti-Everyth...

Johnny R. Spykes - Monthly Madnezz [Volume 1: March 2018] (self-released) It’s Olson doing his thing. You know how it is; flutes, synth, mixer feedback. It made for a very fried out, 3AM listen this weekend. Bill Nace/Diagram:A - Collaboration (Open Mouth) This & the Olson record were two rando...

Re: Now Playing

Gernstein - The Death Ointment (Tribe Tapes) I’ve had this disc for a little over a year now, and just decided to sit down with it. What an odd disc! Lots of piano suites cut in with noise blasts & vocals cutting in and out. Great job on Max’s part to doing the reissue. I would’ve never heard i...

I’m just so happy to own this modern day masterpiece on physical format finally. New Grasping Machina - Miracle on 17th Street (D...

Re: Now Playing

Infibulation - Live Rehearsal (self-release) This is such a great release. It was actually the recording that made me want to do a split with Zach. This is straight up nasty, lofi junk metal noise with extra southern heat packed in. Never outstays it’s welcome. Smokey Emery - Things Done Changed (C...

Death Kneel - Seneca Hill Haymaker (Life of Sensation) Death Kneel - Agonizer (Life of Sensation) My package from Max came in the mail today, and you might as well pair these two together. 2 C10s that do an excellent job of delivering impactful, short-form r...

Kyle Flanagan & Tim Gick - delaminate/relaminate (Flat Plastic) A follow-up to the CD on working man laydown delivers in stride!! It feels like this has to be mostly done live, with only a couple of fade outs added. A lot of wonderful synth work colliding with rough, eerie tape loops. Fantastic...

Mysterious/Anonymous Projects

Love a certain project, but don't know who the fuck is behind it? Are you totally enamored by some super lowkey weirdo who makes ripping noise? Then this thread is for you! As with any medium of art, we tend to love the noise that receives the most exposure and/or has a face to put to the name. But...

Re: Now Playing

Pusdrainer - Humiliation Mask (Dead Gods) A short but concentrated effort from Pusdrainer. It’s an angry & harsh tape that contains a lot more maturity than the projects early material. It’s a fitting end for this project, as moments do venture more into “Shredded Nerve makes a one off PE tape”...

RRRecycled Tapes

Perhaps one of the most accessible entry points into noise for curious newcomers, the RRRECYCLED series has remained a mainstay in my regular noise listening for the better part of 5 years now. There are so many rippers, so many duds and so many strange oddities are mixed within this series that I f...

+DOG+ - Recycled (RRR) The man, Steve Davis, in rare form here. Lots of weird, crude, harsh noise going on here. The legacy of +DOG+ to American harsh noise deserves a neither spotlight on it. Defektro - Forged Seeds (Grog Pappy) An all-time great of both Australian & rhythmic noise. The way Hi...

Re: Underrated and under hyped projects

Back again to continue my rant on artists & labels you need to know more about... Defektro is Australia's finest, flat out. While his work as a pedal maker is revered with Lastgasp Art Labs , I feel like I have never heard any prominent discussion of his noise. For as much as people discuss thei...

Re: Releases of note (so far) for 2023

Coming back to check in with this one now that I have heard quite a few new releases from this year. Scathing - Flesh Wreckage (Cruel Symphonies) this one will take the cake for me as best noise record of the year, probably. Absolutely maniacal in every sense of the word, and getting to play with hi...

Re: Best of Richard Ramirez/Black Leather Jesus/WWJ/etc

Powdered Beatles - What Am I? I wanted to come in here & chime in on this particular tape. Picked it up from Richard years ago, and kind of forgot about it since an initial listen. Might be time to take it for another spin. It is a lot weirder and more involved than other works of his. Also, ho...
