V/A "Roseship, Scallop, Dancer" LP
Posh Isolation compilation with post punk, electronics, some noisiers stuff too. Good stuff. I liked this one lot, perhaps also due diversity and quite short tracks! Street Drinkers Källarbarnen Croatian Amor Marching Church Vår Sand Circles White Amphetamine Logic Age Coin White Void... neat covers.

CROATIAN AMOR "The World" LP
Good one too. I like mix of electronics, guitar and what the description says "real sounds". Basically very relaxing electronics music, but without cold, mechanical or computer sounding stuff. Loops, beats, very handmade feel in adjusting effects and layering stuff.

BASTARD NOISE / BRUTAL TRUTH split LP
Couple people already told this is sucks, but I think if you can handle repetition, then Bastard Noise offers you just that. First track brings in my mind "Source Of Power..." materials of MITB, where almost cosmic electronics have loud growling and screaming vocals on top. Other tracks repeat the known BN sounds without bringing anything new, but being still ok.
Brutal Truth is much less interesting. Get bunch of guys to throw all sorts of sounds from drum beats to electronics and junk, add hefty reverb and you got just some stuff what isn't exactly atrociously bad, but neither nothing to celebrate. If adding layer on top of layer and blurring it with echo sounds like good method of doing noise, might be your thing. I was thinking of Relapse band HALO, but much less interesting results here.

The Bastard Noise material on that split is solid, if not all-out good.  The CD is different than the LP, and both are compiled on the bandcamp download purchase.

Graustich "Werwolf Integrity" 7"
filth & violence / untergeschoss
Euro heavy electronics. Reminds of the general atmosphere of GO/early Propergol/Phosgen/DJK kind of stuff. War samples, speeches, processed vocals, bounding rhythms. Perhaps not that much of own identity here yet, but it's good to see this type of "power electronics" still being done by new artists.

Knaekkede Stemmer "forste....." LP
Järtecknet
Ex-Alleypisser basically. Mikkel rarely fails, and doesn't do it here either. I recall reading that this would be his absolute best stuff. I have to disagree in favor of one older Alleypisser tape, but by no means this is bad. Lo-fi, tape loops, electronics,.. accidentally first listened A-side on 45rpm and wasn't bad that way either, hah..

Sissy Spacek "Harm 2" 12"
Troniks
One side of SS noise. 5 member line-up. Guitar, bass, drums, voc, electronics, not "noisecore", but more like free form noise chaos session direct to tape without any mixing or equalizing done after it was captured. Not bad, but hardly among memorable SS stuff.

Phil Blankenship "Sex Magik" 12"
Troniks
If there is something more insane than Phils spoken word cd that consists nothing but him reading through Red Hot Chilipeppers album lyrics.... then it must be that now Troniks made vinyl 12" from that material!! Cold and steady reading of album lyrics to walkman. Handmade cover looks good. Insane!

Reijo Pami "Dreaming Of Being A Tampon" LP
Ultra Eczema
Ultra lo-fi and often very weird stuff. While the utmost decayed low fidelity sound remains key element, there are things like doing field recordings of stadium full of Iron Maiden fans singing along the band that performs and some traffic passing by. huh?! But besides such small pieces of mental-disorder, most of material is low energy difficult noise. No blasting distortion, no heaviness. Just disturbing rubbish sounds. I liked this very much and would hope artists would get more stuff done. Couple CDR's on Chocolate Monk label. One with great title "You Bring The White Bread, I Bring The Antifreeze"! Not sure how popular the drink is outside Finland?

Graustich - Werwolf Integrity (7", Filth & Violence/Untergeschoss): Good stuff, Power Electronics with Industrial feel. This isn't aggressive, it's just good sounds. Besides the samples, I heard very little vocals, only on the second track for a short time and they seemed quite low in the mix. Will listen again when I'm more awake, just got out of bed, hehe.

Chains of Death Command - Human Waste Music (7", Filth & Violence/Untergeschoss): I know very little of noiserock, scumrock and other rock-related genres so I can't compare it really. It's certainly noisy enough with all the feedback, though I've got to admit I wasn't too fond of the overall sound. Also, the music itself doesn't seem to do much for me, though I have to admit that I liked the B-side (the new tracks) a bit more.

VERTONEN "Fait a la machine" + "Machines domestiques" PIC LP + CD-R [CIP/Ratskin]

This is pure Vivenza-worship from start to finish, but I can't really get enough of this. Less muddy sounding compared to the early Vivenza-tapes that has been re-issued on LP recently, but still rough enough.

Just finished spinning this myself. A doozy! Really heady material, and I would have to agree fully with bogskaggmannen on the Vivenza comparison. Will give the CDr a proper listen soon.

Jaakko V.

Croatian Amor – The World
Very good late night listening. Soft & organic sound, simple and beautiful synth/guitar melodies. For some reason I'm thinking of some of the mellower Coil stuff from 80s/early 90s (?!)

Ahlzagailzehguh – Bypassing Time Passing
Perfect dynamic harsh noise.

Veles – Black Hateful Metal
Q: What would you say is missing from the modern world that the old world possessed?
A: Horses, free food, some diseases, swords. The new world has also some cool stuff like Nazi skinheads, football hooligans, mass murders, LSD...

What a nice review! immediately got me interested in the album!

FreakAnimalFinland

This album is absolute essential. If there wasn't Darken (Graveland) intros and outros between every track, it would be not only short, but underline the ultra primitivism of album. While more "hipsterized" black metal of modern days is "primitive" often in cool way. Like buzzing guitars, neat overdriven sound etc. Veles is the real deal.

Curiously when album came out it was played in Finnish national radio of metal & heavy music. Funny DJ commented that it appears that album was recorded somewhere in polish bunker with some leftover equipment destroyed by german blitzkrieg (or something like that). Next day meeting friends and it was like "DID YOU HEAR VELES!!! WHERE ONE CAN GET IT?!". Of course No Colours didn't have such wide distribution for title like this in late 90's. You can still get this as LP/CD.

If I recall correctly, they might have played one of absolute jewels of album: Broken Cross!

Earlier stuff is basically tighter and better produced (first album and especially demo). 3rd album was already different line-up entirely.

New Wendy productions stuff:

Sissy Spacek 7" - intense noisecore. Very much like A.C. going more harsh (perhaps they match that sound on "another" ep). Some of the best traditional noisecore stuff lately. Nothing new, nothing that amazing, but fast, intense, fierce.

Pedestrian Deposit 7" - One side is kind of... 2010+  mutated tape loops, crude scratching noises, cello drones and tonality. Atmosphere and intensity. Other side has also soothing atmosphere despite there is heavier echoing noise besides the lo-fi scratching sounds etc.  I guess I need to remind myself what all PD has done. It gives impression about development like Sewer Election or such.. Moving from high powered crisp noise to audio experiments? Anyways, his another project that started to do "plain" harsh noise was GREAT, so I guess enough to do noise on one thing.
