Developer/Being (C20, Factotum Tapes): First time I heard Developer, which is nice cut up stuff, might have to check out more. Don't own too much of Being, but this is good too, this doesn't sound very harsh, rather slow, but nice sounds, which is the most important of course. This together with the Batter Cages III tape makes me definitely appreciate Being, though the track on the Baculum/Being/Paranoid Time/Wince track was less interesting, I think, though I have to say that whole tape set isn't much to my liking to be honest (second tape being better than the first one though).
Bizarre Uproar - Rape Africa (CD, Freak Animal/Filth & Violence): First BU album I've got and the only other stuff I own is the split with Deathkey, Musta Rotta 7" and track on Hated Perversions comp. This seems different than the other stuff, but I really like it, except for the 2nd track, that doesn't do much for me.
Pain Nail - Magneettinen Kohtalo (CD, Freak Animal): Already liked the two Hengellisiä Lauluja 7"s and the End Times album (though that's been a while since I listened to it), and again this a really nice album. I like both the calmer tracks which have a nearly ambient atmosphere at times and the more ominous ones.
Unpeace - Troops of No Tomorrow (C11, self released): This kind of noisecore where I can feel anger/aggression/... and where it's not all just a blur is the kind I can appreciate. Nice short tape.
Clandestine Blaze - Falling Monuments (CD, Northern Heritage): Really good album. And I've got to say I don't know too much stuff from CB, have a tape somewhere with Fist of the Northern Destroyer and while I liked some of the tracks, it never fully convinced me, and the split with Satanic Warmaster is nice too, but this album is really good, worthy purchase.
Ride for Revenge - The Renegade Temple (7", Ahdistuksen Aiho Productions): I heard a lot of good things about RfR and had heard some tracks on youtube, but wasn't too convinced, but I decided to get this 7", since I like 7"s. And it's nice 'n interesting stuff, but I don't see RfR becoming one of my favourite bands though...
Einstürzende Neubauten - Kollaps (on Grooveshark): Decided to check this out on Grooveshark, at work, a while ago, interesting material, might want to get this. Only the track with the well-known popsong in it, gets on my nerves, hehe.
Institute of Paraphilia Studies DVD: Grunt/Bizarre Uproar: Good music/noise from both. The visuals of Grunt are nice, the pictures are 'beautiful' and the video is interesting, the only thing which I liked less, is that the pictures start to switch faster at the end, it doesn't really seemed fitting in my eyes. The BU gig has a lot of pictures which I had seen before somewhere (F&V related), but still nice in a way. I was a bit disappointed though, thought that this would be the gig with the woman with her head in the bag and the guy pissing in it. Maybe it was, but you couldn't see it anyway. Would have liked to see that, hehe.
