Scream & Writhe Forum

[Out of curiosity, how long/interesting is the Bizarre Uproar interview in it? Well, the whole thing is about 20 minutes, so …. It goes back and forth between the featured artists, by topic. It’s been ages since I saw it, but my overall impression was ”definitely interesting and worth watching, but...

How I’ve been using compression is in parallel with an EQ then into other treatment. I’ve found that having a field recording’s dynamics be drastically changed can drastically alter how it hits other effects, like filtering, distortion, reverb, etc. Making the background hum on a recording as loud ...

I would agree with holy ghost — a compressor wouldn’t be the first thing you choose if you want strange or colourful effects. What’s your budget, and is the size and weight of the unit important (you said rackmounted effects are okay, so perhaps not?)

Planning on dedicating a release to St. Olga, the patron saint of Kiev. Not sure if that counts. She is also the patron saint of defiance and revenge, appropriately enough.

Well, Epic is depriving me of Darkest Dungeon 2 for an entire year, so they are definitely on my shit list.

Don’t be. If you fuck up during your set, just repeat whatever it was and no-one will know any better. :D

There’s also this: Romua, Ruiskeita ja Rutinaa / Noise of Finland Noise of Finland is a documentary about finnish noise and power electronics scene. Loud distorted noise made with scrap metal and effect pedals are combined with extreme views and shocking visuals. The barriers of human limits and imp...

Damn. Another shitty job I had was data entry. But that was merely boring, rather than actively should-destroying.

Date confirmed.

One artist confirmed, three maybes, one more TBA.

More info as it comes in.

This is the most recent "complete work" (under the name Decrepitude) that I have put together, and I would really appreciate hearing what anyone has to say about it - good, bad, or otherwise. Quick rundown of gear? I quite like the more old-school industrial sort of vibe you achieve. That...

I can’t help but imagine him selling magazine subscriptions or vitamin supplements in the same manic voice he uses for Keuhkot.

Telemarketing is THE worst job imaginable. I tried it one summer when I was 18. Didn’t last even a week. It’s a tragedy that he has/had to do that to survive.

Check out Indoctrination of Fist & Cock or Melting Pot of Cultures. Both pretty recent.

Surely I’m not the only one here who thinks that Basil Poledouris was the man?

Is that still a big part of his work? ….

Yeah, I think so. Their 2019-2020 releases do have some electronics, but continue to rely heavily on junk metal.

Almost all of the currently active Finnish noise projects, that I’m aware of, use this technique to some extent. Edge of Decay, Rotat, CoS, Kovana etc. A certain other Finnish project, whose name is an anagram for Arri Barre Puzo, do so masterfully imo.

95% the next one will be on May 28th. Will post its own thread when it’s fully confirmed.

Really good evening. Great turnout, both the denim vest crowd, as well as the more arty hipsterish scene were in attendance. Which I think is great. Kysta played pretty standard Finnish pedal based noise. Great stuff, but it went on for a bit too long. Live sets of this type are best kept at under 2...

this is my latest release with my pe project varulv: https://brutalisttapes.bandcamp.com/album/varulv-stfront i've gone from more pure industrial pe on my early releases to this new approach, including more rotten harsh noise-y sound into the mix, while also being very influenced by death industria...

There were a few incorrect details in the post above that were up for almost a day, unfortunately. They’re fixed now. The corrected bits are written like this.

There will be no less than three (3) new releases launched at this particular Noise Space! Putrid Fist: Brink of Insanity Debut tape by this fairly new project. With artwork by Janne from Kovana! BRYSKT: INLÅST DIY CD-r produced for this event specifically. There will be other BRYSKT releases on sal...

No pets as such, but back when me and the better half lived in a different area, we would get visited by a crow we named Veikko every day. He was very large and bold, so it was easy to think of him as male. He would walk along the sidewalk with us and even imitate human speech at times. After we mov...

The Finnish one-man project Keuhkot (”lungs”) might be of interest in this thread. His music has been described as a sort of hellish vaudeville or radio sketch. The lyrics often deal with environmentalism, misanthropia and desiring to be a different species. He had been keeping a fairly low profile ...

Out of these, Sabotage and The Coffin in the Mountain really stole the show. China has been churning out some serious heavy hitters recently, especially in the bleak and slow-paced crime department. Black Coal Thin Ice, The Wild Goose Lake, A Touch of Sin, Ash is Purest White . Definitely worth fol...

African Imperial Wizard is pretty great. You’re going to get in trouble for that thread title BTW. That's nitpicking, but anyway I changed the title from "Third World Noise" to "Noise from beyond the West". Honestly not even sure if that's any better. All blanket terms meant to ...
