Ääniaaltojen pauhu @ Fuusio UG klubi
Harsh Ways Syndicate järkkäsi melua vaihteeksi uudessa keskustan keikkapaikassa. Venue tuli hyväksi havaittua jo pari kuukautta sitten ja esiintyjät ottivat ilon irti kunnon PA:sta.
Mogao aloitti ja oli vielä kovempi kuin em. keikalla. Aluksi vähän diskanttisempaa soundia ja sitten alettiin lisätä kerroksia ja kierroksia ja kasvatella. Hyvin perusaineksista (shaker, pedaalit ja kasetteja olettaakseni) tehty mutta todella taitavasti ja homma oli koko ajan suvereenisti hallinnassa. Voimakasta ja elävää kunnon melua.
P.O.V ei ollut ennestään tuttu ja jostain syystä jäi netistäkin tsekkamatta. Eurorack-systeemi, pari pedaalia, joku kaosspadin tapainen ja mikki/shaker jota ravisteltiin ja välillä huudettiin. Armotonta jyräystä oli tämäkin, välillä riehakasta lazer noizua ja esiintyminen oli energistä, mutta loppua kohti homma alkoi toistaa itseään. Vähän kompaktimpi ja dynaamisempi setti olisi ollut todella hyvä, mutta kelpasi kyllä näinkin ja yllätti iloisesti.
Kartiolla oli myös eurorack tms hommia mutta musiiki ihan eri maailmasta. Sähköistä ääntä joka olisi yhtä lailla kotonaan taidegalleriassa kuin meluluolassa. Jatkuvasti elävää kudosta jossa oli kuitenkin paljon tilaa. Tämän olisi ehkä melkein voinut kuunnella ilman tulppiakin. Taitava tekijä asialla, mutta musiikki itsessään ei ollut makuuni. Hyvä keikka kuitenkin ja mielestäni parempi kuin edellisellä kerralla kun näin.
Risaripaa kuvailtiin jossain experimental eurorack electronicsiksi tjsp. Ehkä tuo Kartio oli enemmän sitä kuitenkin. Tässä oli biittiä ja siihen päälle huutoa ja kohkausta. Ei minun makuuni kuin hetkittäin.
Aprapat ei tällä kertaa kolistellut kottikärryjä eikä kahlannut lasimurskassa vaan homma hoidettiin nauhalooppi- ja kasettiarsenaalilla. Ja oli kyllä loistava, huhhuh!! Ei missään vaiheessa todella harsh, vaan enemmän sellaisia täyteläisiä ja orgaanisia tekstuureja joita manipuloitiin ja yhdisteltiin taidolla ja tarkkuudella. Tässä tunsi äänenpaineen ihan fyysisesti. Niitä esityksiä joille on vaikea tehdä oikeutta sanallisesti.
Jälleen loistava meluilta Suomen melupääkaupungissa. Kuukauden kuluttua lisää!

I was lucky enough to find a copy of PainKiller's contribution to the John Zorn 50th birthday extravaganza on my ill-advised trip to Amoeba Hollywood two days ago. This might be my new favorite from the project? (Ok, maybe just for the moment...) Mike Patton's vocals really make a huge change to the general sound, pushing even the more solidly jazz-based passages into experimental extremity. The beginning of track two, which I assume is Patton doing a solo vocal-noise improv (?), is incredibly harsh and hard-hitting!

The title refers to a particularly abhorrent crime in Finland, the murder of an 8-year-old Vilja Eerika by her parents. It happened in 2012 and got a big media coverage. I re-read the details and it's a genuinely sickening case. But Snuff wants to make everyone sick and disgusted, so the subject fits well. The promo text also mentioned a loose band member connection.
The first track opens up with a very low-volume sample describing the case. It's quickly drowned by piercing feedback Snuff is known for. The squeals are also contrasted with metal scraping and squeaky electronics that sound very tasty.
The second track uses interesting sampling. Before rumbling noise, scraping and disturbing voices begin, there's several minutes of snippets from what I think is a Finnish cover band's gig. All the actual songs are cut out and just the mumbled speaks between the tracks are left. The main perpetrator, Touko Tarkki, was apparently some sort of karaoke champion. The samples evoke a feeling of a miserable drunken night in a regular bar of his. No idea what the source actually is, but this is what comes to my mind.
Thanks for reviewing this. I only listened to it a couple times since I received, but i've been wondering where did the samples might come from, as well as what the title referred to. If i remember correctly, it was described as some kind of the Kristiina release follow up? I might be wrong though. Would you or some else have more infos about that, by any chance? Always been curious.

Reslayer.
7 tracks. 20+min. Mumma/Randall/Wiese. 2022.
I'm choosing these in a random order.
Silences! Again. 😂 I'm sure it's weird that one of the first things I notice, between great slabs of torrent and chaos, is the stop/start for a quarter to a half second, here and there. This must be a
Wieseism. It's very effective, to my ears. It adds to the cut-up feel.
I think this one is out-besieging Besiege. I also hear more wall-action here, cut-ups notwithstanding.
Fuck, this is powerful. I'm not recognizing tracks. It's really one single 20min fuckmeup. But again, I sense an arc - it's denser later. I think.
This never lets up for a second. (Maybe a quarter to a half second somtimes. See above.) 😂
Beautiful, varied, harsh noise assaults.
I played it twice.

This was advertised to come with a morbid odor. Luckily it was only dried blood between the jewel case covers. I feared that it's going to be shit, rotting meat or something...The otherwise clear case was also wrapped in black plastic, similar to the art edition of Cunt Animal. This is the kind of packaging that once opened, cannot be put together in the same way. But it's anyway better to open for listening purposes than to let just stand in the shelf, because it's top-tier F&V release.

It continues the similar mystery as in Snuff II. That one had a very long recording from a swimming hall with sounds of children. In that context, it stirred up images of a predator watching children play at the pool.
The Cunt Animal art edition mentioned earlier came with and exclusive CD-R. That was also very good! No filler, or just weird field recordings, but tracks that keep up the steady quality or recent BU releases. CA is such a romantic album, that the triumphant atmosphere of the CD-R fit well as a companion piece.
I was particularly blown away by this release, one of their best in my eyes. I can't help but wonder what Pasi meant when he wrote it had a "loose SNUFF member connection."

XE - Rarities vol.3 was released by Wrath but I guess it best fits under this topic. Nice selection of material from 2009 to 2025. Good balance between newer discipline by repetition and earlier feedback torture. 2025 rehearsal session has the most venomous vocals I've heard for a while and the version of Aseveljeys that closes the disc is true ELITE POWER ELECTRONICS. Recommended to those who prefer their sex with a bit of pain.
