PLAYLIST with COMMENTS/REVIEWS

[FreakAnimalFinland]

When I got to see Ahlzagailzehguh play at No Fun Fest 2008, it was also maybe first time I got to see the "mosh pit noise" type of thing. After set, going out and hearing guys not really talking about the noise but the DID YOU SEE ME CROWD SURFING MAN!! -type of excitement, almost like coming out of youthful punk gig. Of course seen people being into noise, but this type of shows where you got the mass of people, excitement and everybody is like heeellll yeeaaahh -mode was quite new thing. There is video of the show, but audio lacks all the bass and punch, so it wasn't really like this at the location.

[SSRI]

Antichildleague / The Rita split CAS (Obsessive Fundamental Realism)
Four tracks of power electronics industrial from ACL. Good tracks that are not all-out harsh but rather creepy with more subdued, sleazy aggression. Good vocals and bad attitude. Enjoyable stuff, best ACL I've heard (which is very little actually).
The Rita does his textural study or whatever. It's alright but more background sound for me than something to listen to actively.
Dubbing is not the loudest but you've got volume knob in your stereos, right? A5 covers with feet in fishnet stockings.

Squamata - Rust Fetish CAS (Freak Animal)
Harsh noise elite tape. Metal junk bashing and pedal noise, lots of variation but relentless and raging forward all the time. Extremely skillfully edited and perfectly paced.

Love the covers as well. I used to share a rehearsal room with the guys back in the day. It was this underground basement shared with many bands, all with a designated area in the same large room. Most had drums and amps and stuff but there was this one space with metal junk and I would wonder whose are these. I got to know them in no time of course and they told they had thought the same about my gear, hah.

It's a crying shame that no Squamata has been reissued. A complete works collection including all the existing unreleased material would be in order asap.

Yeah, there was talk about it long ago and i have 60 mins of unreleased stuff still saved..

[k.p.g]

Tahma - Live 2-4 (self-released)
As mentioned in the Finnish form, I started my morning with this.  3 live sets of what sounds like sputtery tape and feedback ringing for an eager audience of Finnish freaks.  This tape is in turn dubbed onto a recycled commercial tape, which really bodes well for my shitty, American sensibilities.  Good stuff here!  I am not sure how old this project is yet, but it sounds like Tahma is still finding their footing a bit in live arena.  The foundation there is very good though, so I can imagine live shows to follow will be very good.

Rautakymi - Ei tasta maailmasta (Freak Animal Records)
Forgive my laptop for not having the right set up to properly punctuate this release.  I do not have time to resolve that issue here.  Should that matter though?  I just wanna talk about a record, and a good one at that.
Rautakymi on record has seemingly been much different than what I saw live.  No issues with that, as the recorded material is pretty great.  The tape on Tribe was a muddy hellscape, and this CD sounds like a warehouse being slowly eaten by rats.  Very great stuff!  It is very harsh, yes, but not punishingly so.  Some of the "crazier" parts are often mixed off into the background while some single tone is wailing front and center.  It makes picking apart random sounds you hear all the more fun. 
I like this artist quite a bit.  I know the Finns do.  Maybe other parts of the world should too.
