Hail The Merbox!!!
I do not have a box but haven't listened to his albums for a while. Will play some of the classics in the upcoming weeks!

Cool.
I want to add that SS1535 inspired this idea. I just ran with it. 😂
I ordered this in 2000. I recall a few emails between myself and Roger Richards - the mastermind / driving force behind this project.
I'd love for him to know that (hopefully / maybe) a few of us are celebrating 25 years of this Epic Thing.
Can anyone shed light on what Roger is up to today?
How can you listen to just one disc per day? Such self-control! I've listened through the box a few times and it's always been 5-10 discs per day.

Yikes! 😂
Well, if you play, you can be "That Student" who gets it all done early!
I'm a 2-disc per day Noisehead myself. AM/PM. Maybe I'm a lightweight.
Hah - FUCK THAT.
In reality, I cannot join because I cannot drop $500 on a Merzbox right now. Sad times we live in!
That being said, I do think Merzbow is perfect summer music, and I will be blasting him aplenty as the heat begins to turn up in the city.

I believe that there are free / online options for Merzbox, but I'm no expert so perhaps someone else can specify.
