There is some talk onforum about great project names . I know Putrefier ain't that fond of that name anymore. In english it feel fine, if it was translated to Finnish, I could have second thoughts too, hah.. But in English, good name! Ethnic Acid - when I first got the first tape, it happened in time when EA had not existed for years. I had no idea who was Ethnic Acid. All I knew that tape RULED, and name and artwork Ruled. For years and years I wondered what is Ethnic Acid and who is it. Eventially I got in my hands issue of Grim Humor magazine, where was interview with JFK/AX - Anthony, and was mentioned that back when he was like 15, he had this project called Etnic Acid. I was then talking with mr. Con-Dom who told yes, indeed, EA was great and really damn good. Nobody remembers it. More years pass by and eventually I actually got in contact with artist and did reissue sort of (artist selected) best of double CD. It is really good, but not entire documentation of how killer project EA was.
Same with Putrefier. There is 3 full CD's on Industrial Recollections, but besides that, there exists Putrefier / Ethnic Acid tape. 1987, UK industrial-noise, may we call it power electronics, full lenth C-45 tape. Really brilliant, but as far as I know, nobody who has say in it, wants it to be remember or reissued. In my mind, if there is best UK late 80's stuff like this, this tape belong among the list. All real deal Birthbiter tapes should have light green paper (influenced by Broken Flag blue). Complete label discography is gold. If you see this tape available anywhere, its worth money they ask for it....
23 Artaman label "THE HUNT" comp tape.
C-60 from 1987, The Grey Wolves related. Tape is all charming industrial tape scene stuff. Some raw, some beat stuff, very much the late 80's spirit. Oddity being UK artist song titled "Finnish Trip", what the hell... I would assume tape ain't very largely available, discogs says someone bought it for 120euro, damn.. No recollection when and where I bought this, but it is number 16.
Blood Cement "The hand that considerately kills" tape
Warcom
I don't know how many guys here appreciate Warcom Media. It was so demented mix of humor and... other good things. When label called quits about 20 years ago, I bought ton of stuff and unsold was supposedly thrown away. I still got couple items remaining, but no problem. Stocking Men Among Mice for 20 years, why not!
Blood Cement has really great harsh noise tracks that are really killer stuff. Then you got odd experimental industrial-soundscapes, and suddenly comes narration "country song, take one!"... and really comes acoustic guitar and odd effected singing. Warcom discography is full of this type of weirdness, that totally lacks in vast majority of contemporary noise. If someone would put out box of Robert X Patriot, not sure if it would be bestseller, but certainly there would be one guy in Finland buying copy...
Among the last things, Beau gave interview to Degenerate! -zine. You could feel his lack of interest in noise. I wonder if he is still around somewhere or retired totally unreachable.
