Synth driven Noise rock maximus. This Rhode Island band set a new standard for noise rock 20 years ago by fusing energy of punk with elements of early electro clash and post punk, slathered in noise. But mostly just noise rock. If Merzbow or Controlled Bleeding formed a band with broken synths and amps. This is a rerelease of their first record from 1998 which KZSU does not have. 1) (10:49) live, seemingly looping off kilter thrashy beat, hypnotic as it is disturbing, unwavering in its entirety 2) (3:05) sludgey, ends cold. 3) (3:14) intro with spoken word about “alternative” then just brutal feedback slathered bashing 4)* (10:37) less brutal more driving basic heavy rock, play with Gnod. 5)* (4:04) slow quiet fade in, looped noise, harsh, lovely as a beat emerges | ||
