Macronympha - Insane Torture Device (Original Unreleased Version)

2008 edition of what would have been Macronympha's debut cassette in 1991. For some reason, it was shelved and a completely different tape with the same title was released instead. I have no idea why, but if you do, then please let us know in the comments.

Jooklo und Metabolismus - Perception Of The Illusion Of The Opposition Of Contraries

On this occasion, Jooklo are the duo of David Vanzan and Virginia Genta alongside the wonderful Metabolismus (Jeremie Sauvage, Joachim Schütz, Moritz Finkbeiner, Thilo Kuhn and Thomas Schätzl).

This is a c54 released on Troglosound in 2013 and is every bit as good as you would expect. Even if you already have no doubt...here's a wonderful live set that somebody has uploaded elsewhere:



Whilst, I'm here I have a confession to make (may Jonny Zchivago forgive me) ... I really love Crass! Stations Of The Crass, Penis Envy and Feeding Of The Five Thousand are great. I always imagined the collective rather romantically as the spearhead of the anarcho-syndicalist revolution and Dial Farm as the blueprint for modern living. However, the track "Do They Owe Us A Living?" from the 5000 EP always stuck in my throat.

The intention of the song always seemed clear and certainly it did amongst the plastic crusties and the plastic anarchos that I had the misfortune to spend a lot of time with at a thousand squat parties and demos. Do They Owe Us A Living? Put succinctly: of course they fucking don't! Nobody owes you anything at all! Do it your fucking self! People who believe in a system without government (or more correctly, a self-governing system of individuals) championing a sense of entitlement from The State? HHMMM!!!

Anyway, Metabolismus covered the song on their Mauser O.K. 7" (which I still haven't gotten around to picking up) and nail it! Again, somebody has uploaded the song just so that I can play it on rotation whenever I like ...

Organs‎ - What It Sounds Like Inside You

I've never inserted a recording device but I've often thought about it. Thankfully, Organs saved me the bodily trauma and yeah I imagined that this is how it would sound. Especially the bass heavy reverb ...

Organs were a brilliant but unfortunately brief recording arrangement between C. Spencer Yeh (of Burning Star Core, etc) and Ron Orovitz (aka Iovae). The pair recorded as Death Beam with Chris Roesing. I would assume it is equally great but unfortunately they have escaped me ...

C16 released on Heavy Tapes in 2005.

Organs - Napalmed Natti

Wonderful CDr that covers all of (the previously unidentified) ground between the cavernous recordings taken from inside an asteroid and belly-crawling insect colony crumbling glitchnoise.

va - European Square Vol. 2

International industrial compilation tape from 1987 on the Bande Blanche label with some fine noise by French duo Etant Donnes, a live howl by German band Sprung aus den Wolken (contemporaries of Einsturzende Neubauten), carnage by obscure artists like Op de Grace, Steve Rare, and Kriztof Kudla, and my favorite, several tracks of enthusiastic metal bashing by a group called Three Mad Dog.

Déficit Des Années Antérieures - Nouvelles Constructions Sonores Sur Fondations Visuelles

A very long tape (c90!) by DDAA, a very theatrical band that sometimes resembled a French Residents and sometimes were simply inscrutable. "Nouvelles Contructions..." is mostly the latter. It's a single song with a seemingly omnipresent drum-machine pulse, and was used as the soundtrack to a video art piece. The tape comes with a booklet the contains images and info about the piece (in French) and was published on the Bande Blanche label in 1991.
