I know there is somewhere topics of "gutter noise" etc. but well...
Today was listening first of all:
H.Ö.H. new tape. It's obscure project from Helsinki/Finland, which seems to be kind of disconnected from "scene". Not sure if I have seen the guy, he sends me tapes but doesn't include contact address. I know his identity due one common friend. This new tape, which I assume is second release, if filled with tape loops, radio noise, vocal noises and feedback. It may sound that it's just like everybody, but due sheer lack of ANY kind of effects, rawness and brutality of material is right there in level of early Con-Dom or such. It doesn't have power electronics feel to it, but more like malfunctioning industrial-noise. Broken loops, utterly primitive static distortion, etc. It's nothing like modern "noise" is. It's not energic or wild. Just bleak, raw and grey. Like it a lot!
Another tape was just listening is
KRIMINAALISET METSÄNHALTIJAT "Finlandia" tape. Dates back to 2008, ltd 50 on MAAA bands Triangle records. It is way more brutal and raw than for example "NATO" release on Nihilist Recordings. There appears to be at least one sample track available on their myspace page, but can't get sound working on my computer, but others can try:

While H.Ö.H. tape is perhaps more to the utmost roughness, KRIMINAALISET METSÄNHALTIJAT also has this feel to it, that its not plagued by too carefully adjusted computer effects and still very much "hands on" feel to making songs. Not too cyber-synth lines. Still industrial from the wastelands of the world. In other words, for this topic: recommendations and reviews/comments of such material! No regular harsh/noise, no computer post-industrial. Raw waste sound!
I got bunch of KRIMINAALISET METSÄNHALTIJAT tapes. It's anarchists from Karelia, now part of Russia, but several decades ago still part of Finland. I got soft spot for manifestos, even from
angry fucking zombies:
"LEAVE ART FOR ARTISTS, RELIGION FOR FANATICS, SEX PERVERSIONS FOR POOR ANIMAL MOLESTERS, AND MUSIC FOR MUSICIANS. KRIMINAALISET METSÄNHALTIJAT ARE EXTREME NOISE UNIT. KRIMINAALISET METSÄNHALTIJAT ARE NOT YOUNG PINK HIPPIES. KRIMINAALISET METSÄNHALTIJAT ARE ANGRY FUCKING ZOMBIES. NOISE MEANS NOISE AND ANARCHY MEANS FREEDOM.
KRIMINAALISET METSÄNHALTIJAT HATE:
NAZI BASTARDS, MILITARY IDIOTS, FUCKING COPS, DEAF POLITICIANS, RELIGIOUS FANATICS, BLIND CONSUMERS, STUPID BULLIES, SHITFUCKING SCUM, PSYCHIATRISTS, ASSLICKERS, INDUSTRIAL ELITE, ROTTEN JUNKIES, MODERN LIFESTYLE, CAPITALISM, STATE CONTROL, MEANINGLESS WARS, MASS MEDIA, JUST YOU"
