But I really want to bring this up to this area of the forum. This deserves your love and attention. 😂
I watched Episode 1 tonight. 68min. Crawl Unit, Stimbox, Xome, Death Squad, and Killer Bug were featured. Some had brief segments. Others got lengthy appearances.
I was transfixed! This is truly fucking excellent. The way I see it, here we have maybe 13+ hours of mostly live 90s Noise compilation, mostly seamless, (there was a snippet from the Blue Velvet film in my viewing tonight), and, with visuals!
And it's not expensive to buy. There's a 2024 re-release.
Extensive notes (booklet) appear with this.
Killer Bug was the highlight here. A very energetic and compelling performance, while autopsy / dissection videos played in the background. (Christ, he is young!) 😂
Xome was highly entertaining and theatrical.
Mere knob-twiddling was not seen here. These people all "performed". It's fascinating to see how major Noisicians play live, and how they present themselves.
The video quality is decent, but decidedly 90s lo-res. Many 90s special effects are employed. It's all very charming.
I don't know if the accompanying visuals were always Artist chosen or not. Sometimes I had no clue what I was looking at. 😂
I can't wait to dive into the remaining episodes. This is truly a treasure trove. Basically a wonderful box set, even if you just listened to it. But the visual aspect just kills!
Thank you Michael for this wonderful document.
