Bob Marinelli - Sheen of Hypocrisy (Not on Label)
Ever since I caught a glimpse of the man's vocal prowess onstage at a Hospital showcase a few years back, Bob Marinelli has been an artist whose work I am always intrigued to check out!  It's just good ol' fashioned noisemaking at its finest; zero pretension... just vocal gymnastics, blown-out synth, scrap metal hellfire.  LOVELY. 

Bob credits himself as "Vocal power electronics, organic noise performance," and I would say that is also an apt way to describe how this tape is divided across sides.  A Side just sounds like a 4-track recording of various vocal sputters battling it out across the mix.  It's fast-paced and quick to excite.  Flip over to the B Side, and you are met with what sounds like a mixture of synth destruction and organic field recordings being run through a few pedals.  It has a nasty dirge to it, but also some sort of bliss you can only find in the forgotten, rotten backwoods of the American landscape.

When I listen to a tape like this, I am reminded of the timeless RRRon quote of how noise is "the sound of true love."  This sounds like a man who LOVES noise.  And you know what?  I LOVE THAT.

Josh Hyderman - Screaming at a Wall (Destructive Industries)
One final listen before I retire for the night.  It's a quick one, but god damn is it good.  Hydeman is one of those names that I never see discussed in any sort of PE/2000's noise circles, and it makes me scratch my head.  Similar to the earlier discussed Bob Marinelli, this stuff just sounds like it pours right out of the artist in the most genuine and loving way possible.  Nothing but excitement for the 8 minute runtime of this tape.  I understand that the 21st century's take on Power Electronics is not for everyone, but I dunno, I hear the sounds here and cannot help but grin.  I love this one as well.  If you're curious about the guy's work, this or Fatal Ninja are great starting points.

GENERAL SOUND DISCUSSION / Re: Grunt !

Today I'm digging into the Grunt-Gelsomina 2CD.

I'm cheating: I started with the second (2004) disc.

I really don't know anything about Gelsomina, other than the quick discogs blurb.

I'm enjoying the variety here - spacious junky/ambient parts and HNW parts. Glacial and whirlwind paces. Keeps me on my toes!

Some of the tracks start / end rather abruptly.

One part has me feeling that I am being attacked by pterodactyls in a tornado.

The ending was spooky and perfect.

I can't tell who is doing what on this album - which might actually be a great sign for a collab.

I think I heard Grunt's voice on one track?

Very enjoyable. CD1 tomorrow morning.

Well this is the only Dai Koelakanth I can find at this forum. I know nothing about this artist. All I know is that I am instantly in love with Don't Let Me Be A Burden.

Wtf is this?

An absolute must-buy for me! 😂

This is just one of those things you sometimes stumble upon, and it just hits you like a ton of bricks. I know nothing about this artist. But this crazy-ass 60min "Noise-Collage" (?) has me hooked. I'm in! Maybe in a few weeks I can do a coherent review.

Quote from: FreakAnimalFinland on December 27, 2025, 06:33:45 PMV/A "MODERN AXIETY" tape. You would think there could be shortage of finding new names you have not heard as comp CD series like Kolari and Terässinfonia has covered... what is it.. soon 100 names from Finland?! Still this comp is pretty much solid harsh noise offering and has some bands you have not heard from those compilations!  Tyhjiø, Isä kosminen, Savage Gospel, Neandertaal, Slave Chain, Boredom Knife, Pissfront, Bodybag Experience..

Good tape! Side two wasn't that special to me except for Neandertaal's tape noise rot, but side one was, as said above, solid yet varied. Especially Bodybag Experience, CRE and Slavechain, none of which I had heard before. Label bandcamp HERE.

Olin viikonloppuna jutustelemassa ja yht'äkkiä minulle ennestään tuntematon aikuinen nainen puhui että oli Merzbow keikalla, kokemassa sitä silmät kiinni.
Ja "se mies on todellinen kiduttaja"!

Noisekokemuksia on monenlaisia!
