Messy, abrasive, loose and at their best transcendent, Gravitar forged an improv-driven path between heavy rock touchstones like the Melvins, Sabbath and Unsane with out-jazz, space rock and psychedelic noise. -Last fmClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-57466916052366985022011-02-28T15:46:00.002+01:002011-02-28T15:46:37.325+01:00Our Love Will Destroy the World - Fucking Dracula CloudsYear: 2009<br />

<br />
“Halloweenteeth” commences the horror of Fucking Dracula Teeth with a relatively tame low drone that is soon joined by a ride-cymbal drumbeat and a repeating feedback loop. Within a minute or so, however, all hell breaks loose and the groove is blindsided by an avalanche of shrieking, howling white noise chaos. At that point, all pretensions of song-craft and accessibility are conclusively vanquished for the remaining duration of the album. The rest of "Halloweenteeth" unfolds as a dense, throbbing, roiling squall of seething ugliness and it is wonderful. Somewhere beneath it all lurks something melodic and xylophone-like, but it is never allowed to come to the fore. Instead, it sounds like a pleasant song that is being bludgeoned to death.<br />
<br />
“The Pleasure's Everlasting” follows in much the same vein, though it is a bit more static and droning than its predecessor. It is built upon a thick bed of hums and crackles, but strangled guitar and swooping gales of static and electronics continually threaten to burst forth from the entropic miasma and take the piece in a harsher direction. It never happens though. In fact, the piece concludes without ever evolving or cohering into something more, yet it never becomes at all boring due to the sheer density and complexity of squirming and seething small-scale eruptions that Campbell has woven into it. While it is the certainly the most minor piece on the album, it is a very effective exercise in the power of simmering tension.<br />
<br />
The entire second side of the record is occupied by the album's clear centerpiece, "In Sleep We Creep," which unexpectedly begins with the coupling of sloppy noise rock noodling and a '90s techno synth bass line. Gradually, that unholy marriage is joined by a chorus of mangled voices and a buried thumping house beat, both of which steadily increase in presence. Then, both the garage rock riffage and bass line abruptly vanish, leaving only a thumping four-on-the-floor beat, thick doom-y distortion, and an intense cacophony of voices that sounds like a riot of the damned. Amusingly, it sounds like there is a cowbell incorporated into the murky, buried beat. Detourning a sexy dance beat into a pulsing, unhinged nightmare is an unexpectedly wry (and effective) move, displaying an impish side to Kneale that has historically been well-concealed. Eventually Campbell casts the beat aside, leaving only an anguished, smoldering wreckage of feedback and howling voices.<br />
<br />
This is a significant creative step forward, as the inclusion of dark humor, ruined melodies, and pop music snippets, as well as the increased role of electronics and field recordings, show that Kneale's singularly uncompromising and infernal vision still has a great deal of room left for expansion. Fucking Dracula Teeth is yet another great record by one of the current reigning high priests of unpleasantness. -BrainwashedClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-60539621539731557082011-02-20T23:26:00.001+01:002011-02-20T23:29:53.648+01:00The Daily Void - Identification Code: 5271-684346864436-4519<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://rcrdlbl.com/cms/rcrdlbl/albums/aa9101fc7f4fe3e20de25d453b7b0043.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" height="400" width="400" src="http://rcrdlbl.com/cms/rcrdlbl/albums/aa9101fc7f4fe3e20de25d453b7b0043.jpg" /></a></div><br />

<br />
In many ways the song (“You’ve Been Erased”) that opens this self-titled effort by Chicago’s abrasive garage combo The Daily Void reminds me of some of the old Butthole Surfers. It’s got that jagged edge, you know? You can tell there is great rock and roll looming somewhere in this well of derangement, but by choice the makers have opted for marching at the beat of their own drummer. Read; be strident, loud and not all that easy going. So let’s just hope that The Daily Void never finds commercial success in the tragic way that the Butthole Surfers have. Some of my doubts regarding the type of artsy noise this quartet creates are dissipated as I get deeper into Identification Code…. and they are clarified even more after I find out that The Daily Voids was formed from the ashes of the late The Functional Blackouts (guitarists Mac Blackout and Dr. Filth and Rob Karlic). <br />
<br />
Slightly more angular, difficult, disordered and destructive than the music of its predecesors, The Daily Void create the kind of nihilistic garage punk rock that is bound to annoy the fuck out of anyone not used to these types. Personally, once I got past the Butthole Surfers not so mistaken association I was able to find an affable quartet obsessed with monochromatic negativity, whose songs constantly walk the very fine line between actual organized but in your face brash punk rock music and destructive noise rock. -Deaf SparrowClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-691725993234616412011-02-11T16:30:00.005+01:002011-02-11T16:38:15.351+01:00Grids - Kansas<a href="http://tinypic.com?ref=2ibkbag" target="_blank"><img src="http://i52.tinypic.com/2ibkbag.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a><br />

Some people refer to it as noise rock, but there's a lot more melody than meets the ear here. It's fuzzy and distorted, but if you listen closely, you can hear everything that's going on. It's the kind of rocked-out basement sludge that goes best in a dark club, drenched in energy and fused together with all the sweat you can muster up. My initial reaction was that it sounds a lot like the Butthole Surfers — not the Surfers that brought you "Pepper," but the old-school, acid-soaked group from the "The Shah Sleeps in Lee Harvey's Grave" days — mixed with a bit of Fugazi or hint of Helmet in that the vocals are clearer than the sonic wave crashing behind them. The music drives forth with a plug-it-in and turn-it-up relentless fury, but without the cookie monster vocals or cock-rocking "look what I can do on the guitar" bullshit. -Creative LoafingClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-47632544187514550792011-02-10T22:22:00.000+01:002011-02-10T22:22:36.332+01:00Long Fin Killie - Houdini<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://walrusmusicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/retro/436blog_houdini_big.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" height="400" width="400" src="http://walrusmusicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/retro/436blog_houdini_big.jpg" /></a></div><br />

<br />
A mid-90s Scottish band, Long Fin Killie may be best known as the band that singer Luke Sutherland sang for before subsequently embarking on his solo project under the name of Bows. Other members in the band included Colin Greig, David Turner, and Philip Cameron. Over the course of three albums and numerous singles, the Scottish act cemented their musical style and constantly employed a mix of delicate string arrangements, horns, and of course, Luke Sutherland’s often delicate singing style that often ventured into more aggressive waters during certain tracks. Singing about topics that ranged from issues of race and sexuality to societal standards of beauty, the group remained anything but your typical rock act during their brief existence. -Last fmClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-54275120055560963112011-02-09T20:43:00.001+01:002011-02-09T20:43:58.279+01:00Korouva - Sleepwalker<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi97e8JdhJJYS7GvTvCPyDWevIW02nhF-X9v80bXLI6H1uTi5u3d8PRiAytzYRi376E9VJWYv_rYlmKcTcXzPxod5anuQclvkLBwbG7aZ_kBj7ggk4IF7lyivT4QiOZQ7KWYtn1C4ueu9NA/s320/cover.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" height="210" width="215" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi97e8JdhJJYS7GvTvCPyDWevIW02nhF-X9v80bXLI6H1uTi5u3d8PRiAytzYRi376E9VJWYv_rYlmKcTcXzPxod5anuQclvkLBwbG7aZ_kBj7ggk4IF7lyivT4QiOZQ7KWYtn1C4ueu9NA/s320/cover.jpg" /></a></div><br />

KOROUVA is a musical project based in Portland, Oregon. The music is known for it’s lo-fi aesthetic and mysterious aura. Lyrics are often muddled, live shows are almost unheard of, and information on the group is sparse. Whether the group is actually the sole project of portland artist Miranda Lehman remains unknown. Most information on the band surfaced when black metal act Velvet Cacoon, allegedly plagiarized the 2007 release, Shipwreck & Russian Roulette. No known photographs of the band/artist exists anywhere. -Last fmClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-45082633662012993892011-01-31T23:51:00.003+01:002011-01-31T23:57:02.896+01:00Pavementsaw - Da indi in qua mi four le serpi amiche<a href="http://tinypic.com?ref=2z4ijw1" target="_blank"><img src="http://i55.tinypic.com/2z4ijw1.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a><br />

Pilfering the heavy from seminal acts like Electric Wizard and High on fire, and the wailing guitars of drug lords Pentagram, Phantom Glue's colossal wall of sound would make Phil Specter shit his pants. The quartet shacked up to record their debut with Kurt Ballou (Converge, Doomriders, Torche etc.) at his Godcity studio for a live session of cranked amps and rumbling floor boards. With mastering by Nick Zampiello (Isis, Torche, Cave In) and hand painted artwork by artist and guitar player Matt Oates, this self titled record will do more then put Phantom Glue on the map, it will help them stomp all over it. -Tor Johnson RecordsClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-13216600981780490972010-12-13T11:44:00.001+01:002010-12-13T11:45:05.382+01:00Inswarm - Surely Death Is No Dream<a href="http://tinypic.com?ref=10oqs7c" target="_blank"><img src="http://i55.tinypic.com/10oqs7c.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a><br />

"Timothy Renner and Æ Hoskin are the duo of Crow Tongue who present in this debut full length, Ghost : Eye : Seeker a flanging psychedelic free-for-all of weird folk and acidic noise whose mordant emission is enthralling as it is unique. <br />
Charnel distortion from guitar and bowed “instruments” exude a canopy of rustling and prickling noise, a dense miasma of swelter about the self while Eastern instrumentation dovetails amidst the flushed haze steeping the air in psychedelic mysticism."- Heathen HarvestClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-47417440090930238942010-10-16T16:48:00.001+02:002010-10-16T16:49:30.176+02:00Hanging Coffins - The Black Plague in Mono No. 2<a href="http://nl.tinypic.com?ref=1z6dy68" target="_blank"><img src="http://i51.tinypic.com/1z6dy68.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a><br />

Melbourne based The Night Terrors bring some orginality to a otherwise somewhat dusty theme.

"D.A.’s darkly cosmic constructs neighbor the lazerbeam meditations from Emeralds and Infinity Window, with a distinctly dystopian vantage point as witnessed from their reported rooftop performances that overlook the Los Angeles police departments training grounds for riot control. Minor key melodies flutter over rotating sequences of electronics and slow-burning crescendos, all of which blossom with spectral washes of guitar and oceanic white noise. Dare it be said that D.A. might have outdone Emeralds’ nearly impeccable album of kosmische poetics on What Happened? Yeah, they probably did." - The WireClearIslandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04121988458092052394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-90124529422540776422010-10-03T10:14:00.001+02:002010-10-03T10:15:27.321+02:00White Noise Sound - s/t<a href="http://nl.tinypic.com?ref=jsgdh2" target="_blank"><img src="http://i51.tinypic.com/jsgdh2.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a><br />

You can't get any closer to the original Amon Düül than this. Psychedelic drone improvisations galore! The only difference is that Silvester Anfang are darker and more hellish than their '60's German counterparts. This should be the soundtrack to every medieval horror movie. Expect more Silvester Anfang (I/II) here soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119246209498561388.post-10522404944880588472010-09-29T18:22:00.004+02:002010-09-29T18:40:56.906+02:00Spliff - Herzlichen Glückwunsch<a href="http://imgur.com/rAx9Z.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 378px; HEIGHT: 378px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://imgur.com/rAx9Z.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div><div><div></div><div>Year: 1988<br /><a href="http://rateyourmusic.com/artist/spliff">RYM</a> / <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?0t7rrfr9abt1bh6">Here</a></div><br /><div>Okay, something different for a change. Spliff is the Nina Hagen band. (And Lokomotive Kreuzberg). You might know them from their terrible 80's hit 'Carbonara', but they made a far better LP a few years later called 'Herzlichen Glückwunsch'. This is some really clever German disco/new wave rock. Highlights of the album are 'Das Blech' (which was also a hit in Germany) Wohin Wohin and S.O.S. The song 'Herr Kennedy' is my personal favorite.</div></div>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0
