Phil Milstein – Tapeworm: SFX By Phil Milstein
Irene Moon++ - Triffles and True Trifles
Einstürzende Neubauten - Yü-Gung
A slight diversion for personal reasons ... this stone cold slice of genius is nearly forty years old. What the fuck is that about? I'm thinking of setting up a go fund me so my bonce gets frozen anytime soon so I can ensure that one day I'll get to hear all of Thurston and Henry's tapes. You in?
12" released on Some Bizarre in 1985.

Scant - Debilitate
The aforementioned Matt Boettke who, in the spirit of what the fuck do I actually know anyway (that's clearly intended to be rhetorical but feel free), records on a spectrum between nuanced harsh noise and droned formication that makes you sweat and continually look under the bed ... just in case you were right all along. This sits firmly in the middle of that dichotomy.
C30 released on Amerikan Erektors in 2020.

Shredded Nerve - Milking The Predator Nest
Shredded Nerve is the work of Justin Lakes and I like it a lot. He's a busy man. Apart from the Brooklyn based Thousands Of Dead Gods store, he set up Small Mercies and runs the Dead Gods tape label with Matt Boettke (aka Scant).
A C20 released on Dead Gods in 2018 in an edition of 25. The label's site is down at the minute but a lot of new Dead Gods tapes have just hit Total Black, so check your favourite distros!

Hate Poem & Depletion / Audiorcist - Some Men Look Into The Girl's Sticky Panties After Coitus To See Their Mark Of Territory
The title initially made me dry heave but we have all met men who would think that would be standard practice. Also, I've added the apostrophe because, come on, we have to maintain standards around here! Anyway, in spite of the tawdry grammar and tacky title this turns out to be a big chunk of nice.
Hate Poem was Kenny Johansson (aka Obskyr and Philosophers Of Darkness) which was kind of power electronics but he's Swedish so that instantly makes it better. He only recorded under this name between 2014 and 2016. The first side of this is a recording of the final gig on the 30th of October 2016 and it's a collaboration with the UK based Depletion who sit at the noise end of the PE attitude which also instantly makes it better. The second side is the work of Kenny's long time friend Krister Bergman (obviously as Audiorcist).
This was released as an LP as part of the Hate Poem self-released series in 2017. Within a month, it was unofficialy given the Carpenter Prod treatment. None of that stuff is unofficial ... think of all the Hjuler related Psych.KG versions, it's just a way to represent releases as kinky / extreme art packages. Not a criticism ... I like it a lot, I just wish I could afford to buy more than I have.
As a seamless link, Kenny was also part of The New Movement and as proprietor of Obskyr Records released lots of music with the art/anti-art fetish editions that you'll know from the Blockader universe. There were Bandcamp pages (that don't exist anymore) where I would torment myself staring at things that I would never be able to afford. Thankfully, at least the images are still accessible.
LP released on Carpenter Prod. USA in 2017 that is now based in Sweden. Seamless.

Fire In The Head / Brighter Than A Thousand Suns Messenger Service - Here, Hill, Hell
Seriously, what else could you possibly need to know?
That it's a CDr released on Kohei Nakagawa's Utsu Tapes in 2004 perhaps?

Vomir / Duct Tape Sadist / Mutant Ape - Split
Well you all know the bread and butter on this particular sandwich, but the prime vegetarian filling of your choice is provided by Duct Tape Sadist. A harsh noise glitchcore contact mic wall fest that is my kind of party all day long. It's fkn excellent but I know nothing about him/her/it/them and haven't heard anything else. That's a pisser on quite a large scale.
Initially a CDr released on Shedcore over here in 2007 but given a new lease of life on Smell The Stench in 2008.

Mutant Ape - Marilyn
I believe the children are our future protein substitues. Teach them well and let them feed the way. Show them all the noise that they possessed inside.
Another C60 from No Lyrics Records in 2005.

Moloko - Do You Like My Tight Sweater?
So, how about some splendid mutant pop that seems to have been largely forgotten about? Oh, bad news you at the back. The partnership of Mark Brydon and the drop-dead gorgeous wtf vocals of Róisín Murphy. Expect slinky and warped electronica.
CD released on Echo in 1995 that I bought twenty fucking seven years ago ... never mind, I'll be dead soon.
