Well yes, but I was more referring to the lack of discussion about his work.

That's where we (and this thread) come in!

Warning: When this box arrives at my home, I will drone on and on in this very thread as I devour each (very generous! - average 68min? - I fucking love CDs that are packed to the tits!) CD. As I stated above, this guy is completely new to
me.

Exactly!  And yes!

I like Exercises in Negative Energy. It's abrasive but flows well enough that it's easy to listen to.

Well, as I type, CD2 blasts forth.

I'm terrible with any kind of technical review. I just try to convey my general reactions.

And my current reaction is: Fuuuuuck! This is deep, powerful shit!! 😂

CD1 last night acted as a sort of warmup for this. Maybe I was in the wrong mood. Maybe the volume wasn't right.

Once I get further along I will be able to make slightly more coherent statements. But I'm already thrilled with this box. My fav Noise leaves me breathless and shaking. Many Noisicians try and fail to make good Noise. But some have a magic touch, a sixth sense of how things should flow, layer and progress.

This guy gets it!!

Well, I finished my initial run-through of this boxset. Bottom line: I love two-thirds of the CDs, and the other third (specifically CDs 6,7,8) will...erm...take some time. I admire Brownstead for switching things up on those CDs. There's a lot of variety, ups/downs, twists/turns there. I may end up adoring it all.

CD9 was a blast. A "return to form" if you will. I love how it all ends with "It says Noise on the program, not music." Surreal. (But why just an excerpt of this live VHS?) Some crowd reactions have me wondering if he showed up at a C+W bar. 😂
