Start a noise thread

[Soundscape]

I haven't started a thread in ages, probably because they are about as popular as a fart in the lift, and deservedly so. Whatever. So, on the back of one vote in the currently spinning thread, I am starting a noise (music) thread. I choose to start the thread,

Orchestra of Constant Distress

2016 LP on 8mm Records

Minimal musical content, maximal volume and distortion. This album is the first of three (so far) by this band that is 50% made up of the remains of Skull Defekts, a recently defunkt Scandinavian noise-rock band. This is really good shiz, so get it up ya, noisesters.

 

 

[Citroen]

Arash Moori ‎– Heterodyne

Electronic industrial techno noise from Madrid based Brit Arash Moori.

[Soundscape]

Pierce Warnecke & Louis Laurain - Phonotypic [sic] Plasticity

Introspective noise and drones currently rolling on cassette on Astral Spirits, an adventurous experimental music label based in Austin, Texas.

 

[Soundscape]

Iannis Xenakis - Persepolis

Xenakis must have been a genius. How else could one even conceive of such rapturous noise?

So, let's continue the most ignored thread on SNA [emoji867]

Tonight it's Alessandro Cortini with Merzbow. Particularly ugly synth based noise, but it has its charms. Confused? Couldn't care less? Tell me about it.



PS these Spendors are great with this shiz. So full of texture and nuance. Love it!

So you may be the only person on SNA interested in hearing these results of some recent knob twiddling and square pushing that I have been indulging in. I can't wait for this to be the most ignored post in the most ignored thread on SNA

Good stuff Mr D. I always have an ear for your recommendations. It seems there are one or two lurkers here. Perhaps we can hook them up before reeling them in.

 

Is this a thread, or should we call it a wire, with fine serrations and some carefully placed barbs? 

 

I was listening to some Radiohead earlier which was nice but, really, rock music is so passe. The real meat lies buried, underground. Even Radiohead know that. So many discoveries await our pleasure. Much digging to do. 

 

Jon Wesseltoft & Balazs Pandi - Terreng. Drones, drums and noise. Just lovely.

Here's the undisputed modern master. Was at this gig Of course the point of a Merzbow gig is to feel it more than hear it!

My current favourite noise-related video on you tube. Believe it or not, it's a synth review.

 

 

[ericd]

I finally got myself one of those 0coast synths. Inspired by our friend in the above 'review' I recorded this:

26 minutes of raw screeching electric guitar feedback. Now THIS is noise. Released on Weird Forest Records, there is very little written on the cover or labels. The black square you see below is the cover, complete with minimal black writing on it.

I'll just drop this here.....

I had this many many moons ago, a group of us used to pass it around, the rules were, you had to listen in pairs and you were not allowed to pass it on until you had played the whole album.

Second person was there as a witness.

I believe Lou apologised to his fans for this effort.

Thanks for the inspiration guys

Skull Defekts

@metal beat get with the program

[metal beat]

Davo and co.  I can honestly say I have never seen this POS thread b4.

 

  Just let me say, I will be posting 2morrow    stay tuned

[Soundscape]

Party Dozen released one of my fave albums this year. This is their 2017 debut. Brilliant rhythmic noisescapes and riffs. Sometimes I think their pithy pieces would suit a film score, other times I can imagine some heavy rhymes being spat out by a hardcore rapper. Great Aussie band

 

Carn Shane, show us ya noise! 

[metal beat]

Party Dozen is way cool Davo.  @Soundscape

 

New War - self titled album from 2012 - another Aussie band that makes a bit of Noise - everything starts and stops with the drums with dark keyboards - very good post rock

 

[Esoterica]

I'll join in! I don't mind a bit of Lightning Bolt occasionally and have listened to a few noise acts over the years, like Melt-Banana. I used to be into industrial noise too.

[Soundscape]

Is it electronic, or is it avant garde? Fcukit, it's noise and I love it.

I’ve always been a big fan of one of the originators of the power electronics scene who don’t get the recognition they deserve: WHITEHOUSE

I was fortunate enough to see them at the Corner Hotel for What Is Music? one year (2003?).

 

Bennett and co were always lunatics, but never really got the respect a Merzbow got.
 

It’s been refreshing to see a few techno artists like surgeon putting their tracks into their sets in recent times. Breakdowns in a techno set with samples and sections of Dumping The ******* Rubbish are designed to melt your brain.

Sun Ra earlier

Now Iannis Xenakis

 

Both visceral and cathartic in their own ways

Music is just...organised noise

 

 

I figured posting this was appropriate. And here's some genuine noise to legitimise the post:
