haters recommendations

[jesusfaggotchrist]

where should I start? anything in cd form is recommended.

[audiodissection]

Highest recommendations for these:

Ordinarily Nowhere (pure)
Mind The Gap (Vinyl Communication)
Death-Defying Sickness (Noisopoly)
Untitled Title Shot (Noisopoly)
split w/Black Leather Jesus (deadline)

[FreakAnimalFinland]

and In The Shades of Fire - perhaps even the CD re-issue as it has more material?
I agree with Audiodissections choices! All very good - but there are also more good stuff obviously.

[THE RITA HN]

DRUNK ON DECAY is a favorite of mine (also features one of the greatest cover images ever).

[NEHPF]

Cultivating Calamity is my personal favorite. Basically where GX took the amplified eroding funnel thing into it's extreme. Awfully monotonous and lo-fi. Probably not a great starting point, but if you find yourself enjoying Drunk On Decay.

[Mikerdeath]

Death-Defying Sickness.

[Half Aborted]

Not a CD, and not even by GX himself but the Breakthrough "7 released under The Haters name (actually by David Jackman) is totally wonderful.

Maybe some of you remember ...

1 - 2 years ago I read an interview with The Haters. Herein, Jupiter told he was currently working on a project that involved digging holes in the earth/ground/sand with low-level frequencies. Would've liked to read this spread again. All pointers are welcome.

Note: If there are other sites etc presenting this project, please feel free to post this as well.

The ideal introduction to the work of GX Jupitter-Larsen and The haters would be the book / CD "Drilling A Hole Through The Sky", either that or buy a couple of cheap 7"s ...

Personal favorites:
Death-Defiying Sickness
Drunk On Decay
Ordinarily Nowhere

but yes, just grab whatever you can find, there's not much need to be picky.

[Otomo_Hava]

My personal choices (& my favourite ones):

In The Shade Of Fire (Hanson Record's CD reissue)
Death-Defying Sickness CD (Noisopoly)
Nikumu 2007 CD (Kubitsuri Tapes)
Merzbow + The Haters CD (Banned Production)

Worth Exploring + Listening:

These Things Happen Volumes 1 + 2 CDs (Helicopter) (Selections from 7" singles [Vol. 1] + compilation tracks [Vol. 2])

THE HATERS – Future Cheers LP
Urashima
Great LP! 1986. Sounds of destruction, but not buried under extensive distortion. Crashing glass, perhaps throwing around chains or small metal pieces. And such stuff. You can identify with sounds, instead of hearing abstract distortions. Sharp, broken, perhaps not aimed to be "as loud as possible", more just mass of industrial noise waste created in couple layers of elements. It has plenty of similarity to other older works of Haters where he uses similar sounds, but there is something in way it is done that clearly stands out as great Haters release worth to reissue!

[Duncan]

Always found drunk on decay to be a great go to.

[NO PART OF IT]

I will agree about Shade of Fire, Drunk on Decay, the CD with Merzbow (with a 20 minute out-take track that is great, and wasn't on the original release),  etc etc. 

But I think some important touchstones on the world of GX/Haters is:

Big Time Crash Bang LP (car crash sounds)

and

Cultivating Calamity

and, Gx did a guest radio art / installation / podcast thing on my old radio show, I still think it's great, all 4 hours of it.
