RJF

I am quite looking forward to getting that new RJF album 'Sweet Slow Suicide' for Christmas. I re-read the informative article in As Loud As Possible and relistened to Greater Success in Apprehensions and Convictions, I found it quite a playful experimental album to how I remembered it and the picture of RJF built up through the article. I read the quotes of their correspondence with Maurizio Bianchini who told them to have confidence in their means and I can see why. I really like the album and can't wait to hear the new one. What do people make of RJF and the new material?

"Sweet Slow Suicide" is one of my favorite records that came out this year

It's a GREAT album, but quite different to the first. Review here:

Can't wait to get it.

Yeah, 'Sweet Slow Suicide' is easily one of my top albums of the year, too... noise, industrial, or otherwise. Different than 'Greater Success in Apprehensions and Convictions' (obviously the different line-up along with the passage of time has had an effect), but pure postmortem excellence, nonetheless.

This album actually reminded me of Sektion B a bit: simple yet effective, hard-hitting loops, focus on powerful yet pronounced vocals in several tracks, and, last but not least, the general approach to composition (honing tried & true techniques/methods/tricks/instruments till perfection instead of reinventing the wheel in some peculiar and essentially pointless manner).

[l.b.]

'greater success' was one of the first noise albums of its kind that i found and got really into. my child-mind nostalgia makes me scared to hear the new one but i'm sure it's still good.
