Certainly some of the finest harshest wildest synth, analog, noise-power electronics I’ve ever heard. Guaranteed to put hair on your chest. Think Wolf Eyes, Throbbing Gristle, Beelzebub Youth. Load Records seems to have drawn a line in the sand that I gladly leap across, but maybe that’s just me…
1) harsh difficult synth noise, beautiful
2) reminds me of Beelzebub Youth somehow, low fi voc duet w/ hand claps
3) low rumble becomes an onslaught of noise like never heard before, with yelling, brief
4) brief guit (?), string playing
5) synth madness
6) nice uniform harsh tone w/ buried voices
7) toy piano sounds, buried beat
8) live recordings, low fi, harsh power electronics w/ screams, after ~6min becomes the most sublime power drone
9) noise synth tones, nice composition, super, lush, rich
10) guitars, tambourine, low-fi w/ vocs, brief
