From Musique Machine:
Izanami’s Labour Pains – Osorezan No Itako
‘Osorezan No Itako’ is rather manic & fucked-up ride into often rapid cut-up: harsh noise textures, bent & abused shaman music/ chants, overloaded industrial junk beats, demonic Madman vocal bays & all manner of head-screwing-up & noisy mayhem all fired at you in the two ten minute tracks that make up this 3inch cdr.Churner – Sandstorming
‘Sandstorming’ is Churner’s (aka Dan Eifling)take on HNW; and as with anything related to this excellent US noise project Eifling adds has own distinctive & original flavour to the whole art of ‘Wall’ making.Black Seas Of Infinity – Hieros Gamos
The hieros gamos, the marriage of a god and goddess, has been symbolised in Wiccan rituals, either through physical coupling or metaphorically with knife and chalice, as a fertility rite. Originally subtitled ‘The Sacral Fornication’, Black Seas Of Infinity’s album offers recordings from a series of such rituals, apparently aspiring to unlock secrets held within those distantly related to fallen angels, or more specifically the blood line of the Grigori of Biblical apocrypha whose enthusiasm for women sired the Nephilim, a mixed race of the heavenly and the mortal.Placenta Lyposuction & Hour Of the Wolf – Split
This HNW Split offers up two twenty five minutes tracks of unforgiving, ear-drum melting noise & sadistic static jitter attacks. With a track a piece from scene new comer Croatia Placenta Lyposuction & Norway’s Hour Of the Wolf which is Andreas Brandal(Flesh Coffin, Drevne Bolesti, solo work, ect) more static wall like noise project.Gastric Female Reflex – Zulus In Shit Angle
Gastric Female Reflex’s “Zulus In Shit Angle” falls into the ‘intentionally amateurish anti-music’ subset of ‘noise’. By noise standards, this sound has plenty of dynamic range and space to breathe, yet is actually completely composed of chaotic, lightly distorted and muffled midrange pots-and-pans style clamour, recorded in the absolute lowest fidelity possible. This is ‘built-in laptop microphone’ quality recording, here… and the creator of the album seems to be in love with the bassy ruffling sound a microphone makes when rubbed against a piece of carpet or clothing.An Innocent Young Throat Cutter – Mrs Wardh
‘Mrs Wardh’ finds this two piece Italian & USA giallo influenced HNW project doing their sonic tribute to Sergio Martino’s 1970’s classic giallo film ‘The Strange Vice of Mrs Wardh’ (Lo Strano Vizio Della Signora Wardh). An Innocent Young Throat Cutter are Richard Ramirez(Werewolf Jerusalem, Black Leather Jesus, ect) & Cristiano Renzoni (Alo Girl & runner of the Urashima label),
