I have seen.. 3 or 4 ? And been told about those which I personally wasn't present.
It's not a big insult, though. I think for many bands it's difficult to transform the recorded material to live situation, without use of backing tapes. Often for reasons that they rely of methods what can't be done live - or things what demand A LOT in live situation. Sometimes it is simply experience - how the get the sound blend together well in similar ways.
Have you done the Freak Animal fest type of connections later on? I'm pretty sure there has been very little wrong with efforts, yet to get the "saturation" & blending of sound closer to recorded material, one should approach live from another perspective than simply plugging guitar to amp and session member to his own amp.. ? Connections I made to help out the soundcheck work out was very simple, yet I guess effective ;)
But like said - for vast majority of noise makers, live sound is the unknown territory you get to experience way too rarely.
Perhaps this is reason why some of the most gig making artists (Prurient, Incapacitants, Whitehouse, etc) are so superior to those who do gig a year or less. And especially those who get to try loud amps and PA's only briefly just before they play. Sooo many times you see the technical issues getting on the way. Artists not realizing how different situation is.
Noise scene is so much smaller than punk. Punk is also most of all youth culture, where music is one side, but basically includes tons of "summer punks", who come and go. Noise tends to be something where you come and stay.
From relatively newish acts...?
INVISIBLE WAVES Ylämylly
WHITEWATER ORGASM .. hmm where it was?
INSULAR kuopio
UNCLEAN kuopio
... ? I'm sure there is more.
Not people from any old "established" names. And relatively young too? I guess that's already pretty good number of projects I personally discovered during last year.
