TONGUE KNAX "Thee Grand Fidelity" tape
Second Sleep
Always good stuff this Tongue Knax. Can't go wrong buying his tape(s). High pitched electronics with bassy, rumbling noise as backbone. Quite stable, but almost small modulation of sound happening.
ONE DARK EYE "Manic Depression" CD
Ljud & Bild
Hmm... Not really re-issue, but re-edit of tape with same title. While original Manic Depression was C-60 with one track per side, this has 3 tracks that's about 30 mins, what is Dan Johansson editing "Manic Depression" and one more track pulled from ODE/Macronympha split tape. Should I complain about release not being 1:1 identical re-issue? This time: NOT. This is absolutely some of the best works I have been listening lately, and that's many times. I guess last week 5 times at least. Was thinking when should say something on "playlist" topic, but I guess now when thinking of filing this to CD shelves so I can move on to other things for a while. Just makes me wonder where is my "Manic Depression" tape...? Should check out what exactly is different.
7MON / NECROCANNIBALISTIC VOMITORITIUM -split 7"
Quite lazy noisecore is now standard of once so mighty Seven Minutes Of Nausea. Even if this is one of the better new 7mon things, it's... lazy, uninspired and barely listenable. I guess it's about the time to stop getting "everything". Unfortunately the split partner ain't much better. Bass+drums+vocals grindcore. Maybe last track is most intense NV stuff I have heard, but that's not enough..
