Noisey electro rock, low fi (4-track?) that smacks of early 80’s art rock a la Warhead, Human Hands, Culturcide. Simple analog electro, drums, guitar, distorto male/female vocs, project associated with Neglected Receptors. Fans of Wolf Eyes, early Butthole Surfers, early Residents, Throbbing Gristle take note.
1) FCCS appear late (mid paced low-fi noisey electro, distorto vocals, feels like early 80’s art punk)
2) rhythmic electro noise, bent
3) brief, noisey female spoken over noise electro
4) treated simple electro with “I’m a catch 22” repeated
5) acoustic guitar, male vocs, strange
6) FCC- lewd
7) slow creepy bass synth, bowed cymbal/saw, sick spooky male vocs
8) melodic vocals, songlike, great low-fi treatment keeps it strange and good
9) stereotypical trite feminist shouted vocs over swirling casio beats and treated synths/guitars
10) looped treated sounds of phone answering machine time-set with electro beats, distorto- with 2 min left it turns to male vocs, lyrics about being a used machine, good stuff
11) slow dark, fuzz bass drone with plodding sparse electro beat
12) 9 minutes of silence, dead air, don’t play
13) instrumental: simple slow plod electro beat, dark with sad violin and 80’s styled bass and guitar (think Siouxsie, old Cure)
14) harsh high pitched noise over interesting subtle noise, turns into a cacophony of hand-held tapes and distortion
15) slow beat, heartbeat like, very old school noise feel, analog synth, Throbbing Gristle
16) urgent but simple electro beat, silly almost
