This is some really wonderful drone. Play loud.

Xiphiidae - Perfuming The Foot Of The Door

I AM SORRY ABOUT THE LACK OF POSTS

I WILL POST MORE

I PROMISE

FORGIVE ME

Abe Vigoda - Skeleton

Wow, been a while since my last post, uh, no real excuses for that. So yeah.

Yes, this is a noise blog. No, Abe Vigoda isn't a noise band, but that doesn't really matter because this is my favorite album of the decade. Every time I listen to it new things pop up, there's just so many layers of everything.

I think I've listened to this album 50-something times since 2008, I can't get bored of it no matter how hard I try.

Highly, highly, highly recommended. Life music.

Hope is a white hand that moves through my body, Hope is a white hand that moves through my body, Hope is a white hand that found you and saved me, Hope is a white hand that moves through my body

Death By Horsecock - Rouge

Some more stuff from the Et Pourtant label. This is a really great album, constantly changing but going nowhere, ya know?

<><><><><><><><>

Tardigrades - Neutron Star

Okay, I'm sorry for the lack of posts recently. LSA, DXM, and Yopo have been monopolizing my thoughts lately. Apologies.

Anyway, here's an amazing album by the amazing Et Pourtant label, some wonderful ambien(t) stuff, very highly recommended. Check it out.

White Dog - Harvestman

The new White Dog album, bleak electronics from Canada.

This is some creepy shit. Seriously. I got creeped out in my chair with my lights on. The aural equivelent of the apocalypse. No shit, no hope.

Unidentifiable sounds getting hurled at you. Cold and alone. Air raid sirens are going off, unknown origins. Pained wails come from somewhere you know you don't want to be and they're getting closer. Randomly assembled low-end clatter sounds like the footfalls of some treacherous, sexless behemoth searching for nourishment in the flat and dead area around what was your house. Smelling of sulfer.

As night descends you hear screams in the distance, faint and almost inaudible above the roar of the unimpeded wind on the treeless landscape. The footfalls of the behemoth are getting louder, more frantic in its search for something, and you know it's only a matter of time until it finds you.

It's colder, you huddle in the dark trying to get warmth. Soundless in your attempt to not be found.

It is wailing, the footfalls are getting closer. There is nowhere to run. The sounds of confusion dissipate as the footfalls are the only thing you can hear. It is getting closer. No hope.

Thanx 4 the support y'all

Xiphiidae - Crystal Marvelous Fruit 2xc62

This is one long album, two 62 minute tapes, that comes out to 124 minutes. Some of Jeff's best work though, so this is definitely recommended.

Tape 1

Tape 2

Abolicao - Flowering Judas

Abolicao is another project of Jeff Astin's (Xiphiidae, if you somehow didn't know), and this one is even weirder than the rest. Hard to believe, I know.

It's pretty hard to describe what this sounds like, but it's just guitar & pedals (according to some post on f&a, I don't know what it sounds like, it's completely alien in a good way)

HIGHLY recommended

Xiphiidae - Interior Lamp With Leaves

"For ever and ever,"

Xiphiidae, Pan To Scratch - Split

Oookay down to business again. Somebody requested some Pan To Scratch AND Xiphiidae, what better way to fulfill that request than a split LP?

...Not much.

I Hate Myself - Three Songs

I Hate Myself was an emo band from Gainesville, Florida.

You might be wondering what exactly this has to do with, like, every other post on my blog. The answer; nothing. This is just a really good album with really great lyrics and probably in my top five albums of all time.

I'm probably going to be branching out a bit from the regular noise/experimental tapes and records and just start posting albums I really like, regardless of whether they 'fit in' with the 'theme' or not. But the noise/experimental album rips will still remain the main focus of the blog

Enjoy,

Tricorn & Queue - Continual Passage

A couple people have requested Tricorn & Queue, and that's okay.

This is probably my favourite Tricorn & Queue album, but they're all really good anyway, so that doesn't mean much. Music from the past, man.

Don't be in between me, I'll grow and break you.
