Improvisational feel to this mostly collage organic cacophony of various organic instruments that borders on true music and dissonant noise. Great inclusion of vocal samples, spoken word (?) and lots and lots of weirdness. Soy Retardo, Brick, Chief, take heed. Its all good stuff. Strange. All tracks radio friendly length. I’ll vouch for these fuckers. Appropriately titled actually: Abrasive yet quite playful and listenable.
1) noisey, dissonant, brief, weird
2) incorporates banjo and lots of strangeness
3) dark, noisey, industrial noise feel
4) slightly plodding tribal beat to this, buried lyrics, bizarre
5) like track 2
6) dark doomy guitar and fun percussion
7) strange noisey piece
8) “when I was a little boy I hoped I’d grow up and marry my mother”, like 2 and 5 but with bizarre lyrics
9) screaming, a pensive beat and percussion
10) odd, disturbing with female voiceover/samples, talking about ice cream men and their songs, nice percussion and dark toned
11) collage of obscure sounds and instruments
12) obscure collage
13) starts with radio noise then a subdued thrash out sounding thing, ends sparser, arty
14) sick swingy thing with a disturbing voiceover
15) a dark simple melody dominates a swirl of bizarre and scary noise
16) driving pensive rhythmic, but of course weird, musical somehow 17) noisey looping, nice
18) clanging slightly more tribal
19) slow plod feel, excellent
20) out of tune guitar with echoed undecipherable vocs
21) pensive drums with sick music and “vocals”
22) very strange music, intense layers with robotic voice message, great
23) more chill than the latest, chimes, horn-like tones appear and wane, noise bursts
24) heavily layered, noisey in fact but very organic, like all the previous tracks melded into one
