Title: Short blast harsh noise
Post by: FreakAnimalFinland on August 25, 2017, 12:59:47 PM
I was revisiting BLISTER PACK "Swing, Brother Swing" tape. 1995 release from project what did very little besides this. One tape on MSNP. I suppose at least one of guys worked as REND and did brutal harsh noise CD for Pure/RRR. According to discogs, last year there was also CDR of T. Mikawa And Emerson Murray. One track titled "21 years later", so I assume he has not been around doing much?

Anyways, Blister Pack tape totally kills. It's rough, fierce and brutal harsh noise with crunchy mid 90's sound. What makes this tape different, is that instead of solid 20 minutes sides churning harsh walls, it is most of all Masonna-esque short blast harsh noise. Fragments ranging from couple dozen seconds to couple minute blasts, accompanied with wild screams. Sound has variety, but if spaces between noise would be removed, it would become far more "normal" harsh noise.

Not that I would consider tracks lasting 1-2 minutes the best length for noise, but it is sometimes healthy variation to stretched pieces. This made me think how little the actually is noise, that ain't noisecore (even Gerogerigege style), but proper noise. Just based on short blasts of energy? Some Blod, some Masonna... hmm... ?

Also Blister Pack can unleash longer pieces, like beginning of B-side of this tape. Curiously "Swing, Brother, Swing" tape comes with insert asking WHO KILLED NOISE? Use clues found on thsi tape to solve the case and win a one-of-a-kind personalized tape from Blister Pack! Solutions should have been sent back by dec 31, 1995. Curious if anyone happens to have personalized tape in collection?

As sample, I guess only one oneline would be from MSNP release. Quite similar material, but doesn't sound so bulldozing and crunchy as debut or from well dubbed tape and this is one solid long piece instead of short blasts.

Bacillus springs to mind in addition to those already mentioned? He has tracks sometimes less than a minute or thirty seconds, usually surprisingly complex.

Certain videos of older Bizarre Uproar seem to have that quality, just one short blast attack after another, with a grindcore/noisecore feel to it, except more dense and crunching. I'll try and link the video I'm thinking of...

Limbs Bin deals almost exclusively in the short-blast. https://limbsbin.bandcamp.com/

Maybe Switzerland's CRAWL NOISE?

Edit: Not the Patareni side, of course.

Sissy Spacek's usual noisecore overtones with Dash/Anti-Clockwise but I think this pretty much fits the bill.
Also I hope it's ok to post a link to bandcamp (never seen it done here before)

i think yr *prob* speaking on the Liha-Evankeliumi 3" cds (which later got a 3xCD thing on Freak Animal, correct me if im wrong) and THE BUNKER SESSIONS. really almost any pre 09ish BU i think applies, even on longer more focused pieces; the influence of "noise core" or at least "quick/fast" tape cuts is always in your face. the super early stuff (Sore Throat/Facialmess thing im thinking of) is really like this, even tho its longer pieces supposedly.

i feel like this is something people did a lot more up until the early 00s, it became kinda gimmicky to an extent, esp in the states w/ the way no one actually knows what is going on w "noise" etc here. i know theres a bunch of stuff like this im thinking of, but not coming to mind right away...
