Soon to be released Sick Seed album is killer. It was pressed already months ago and got copy early on and been listening to it several times, but waiting for announcement to happen.

It is at the same time logical addition to previous albums, but also pushes into slightly new sounds. Especially vocals, that are kind of traditional SS vocal assault, but production is notch different. In a good way!

For fans of Prison Songs and Powerplay that came out decade ago, this new one will be perfect addition.

New Satatuhatta batch offering again good Finn noise! Corral Shut 3" is good example how stutter loops can work, when the overall sound is nasty. Like Bizarre Uproar 20 years ago, stutter loop assaults were kind of dirty and not "mathematical" like with clean digital creations. Corral Shut is rusty, nasty, of course no way similar to BU. Just using that as example that stutter loops can be nasty and piercing and not annoying and sound "THE SAME".

Campsite Love is Jazzhand and Haudat/Monocyclocybercilia. Reel-to-reel rugged sound processing and eerie "ambient" soundscapes. I actually like the latter ones the most. Somehow oddly vibrating tones. Like vibrato keyboard tones of some sort. Maybe manipulated tapes? Although, was listening to this while falling asleep, so there was transitions of awareness and pure sleep and not everything yet ingested 100%!

Noise discussion with Mr. Aprapat / Satatuhatta published in an academic research journal:

Oh! Excellent!
There is funny "rock isn't kivimusiikkia" moment!


There are bunch of academic studies related to noise in Finland. This piece is behind the paywall or something, meant for the "academic audience only", but I guess abstract + footnotes already gives you some indication what's up. There is cross cultural study, how rebel rock & power electronics is possible to exist in same milieua.. kind of.

I generally say no thanks to any academic research and non-genre-insider documentation, but mr. Kotonen is exceptional character in otherwise depressively sad reality of guys working on same field as he is.

Looks like a great read judging by the footnotes. Shame about the paywall.

If anyone is interested in that article, I guess I can put my university membership to good use. Give me your email in PM and I can send you the full pdf.
