Casa di Caccia splits on Second Sleep finally arrived and they both rip. Great to hear new Wolf Creek material, always starving for stuff from them. Exjesus side of the other one might be my favorite thing I've heard Stewart do solo.

Also really digging Prairie Trawl's Lawful Incineration C32 from last year. Picked it up not knowing anything about it and so glad I did.

Sutcliffe Jugend - Death Mask

One of the best PE albums of all time.

Melvins - Colossus of Destiny

I thumbed my nose against this one when I was a teenager. "Bah... This isn't NOISE?" Upon my return over a decade later, I find that it's actually not without merit, far from it! You could easily have fooled me into thinking this was a Nurse With Wound or Throbbing Gristle album.

It was reported that members of the audience were lying on the ground, covering their ears during this performance.[2]

I wouldn't be surprised! There are some frequencies on here that are quite painful even on record, can only imagine what it would have been like in person. Half the fun of this record is imagining this show in your head.

If I owned a CD copy of this I would see myself returning to this quite often.

PBK - III: Poetry & Motion (Sound Of Pig)

Strange how simultaneously this feels "of it's time" while still completely ahead of the curve. Side A sounds like a direct predecessor to the extremely loud installation-based noise of Damion Romero. The reverse side is a more distinctly 80s approach, using slowed-down tape samples and ominous drones.

Smell & Quim - The English Method (SHF, Old Captain reissue)

First tape from Smell & Quim, now available as a digipak CD. It seems (to me at least) that S&Q are generally more known for their darker material like Jissom Killers or Jesus Christ. Releases like English Method or Nativity Colostomy, are really not that noisy at all, but more surreal "weird music"...

First year I've really felt " Noise " has become pretty predictable and really dropped off from a previous level of excitement & energy that experimentation should really bring to artistic concepts; sonically & thematically.
Maybe it's just podca$t pandering.

I've been playing the new The Cherry Point - "Dawn of the Bloody Tapes" on repeat this week. No frills, no bullshit, perfect harsh noise. It's made me revisit other TCP releases I have and made me realize I need more.

The new Swampland batch of c10s are very good. I really dislike the short c10 format, but it worked well for these releases. The Moth Drakula tape and the Ex-Jesus/Velvet Grey split are especially good. The packaging is really nice from the color palette across the releases, the baggies with inserts, all the stickers, and the additional postcards were a nice touch.

Looking forward to the new Moth Drakula full-length coming out on Misanthropic Agenda as well. The last release on the label was excellent and from the short sample I think this will be just as good.
