Various Artists – "Beatronic Vol 1" (Mindscan Tapes) 1993


For some reason unknown to me,Mindscan changed the UK Electronics  series name to "Beatronic" for two editions, of which this is Volume 1. Most of the Industrial stuff has gone, but, woe betide anyone who mentions it......down boy....there is a Nazi Death Camp reference.
I'm sweating blood trying to ignore it, but I can't stop myself!? There's a fine track called Treblinka, named after the semi-mythical extermination camp hidden behind some bushes at Treblinka's fake Railway terminal.
Of course there's stories of camp orchestra's,Rich jews who actually bought a ticket to travel for resettlement in relative style,approximately 5000 bodies a day gassed by the two Diesel powered Soviet Tank engines (No Zyklon B there...that was for delousing),a massive pit of Kerosene to burn the bodies to nothingness, and of the 67 survivors most were of the Sonderkommando variety, who ground down the bones,and did a great job of hiding every trace that the place ever existed,before they were to be killed....which the Nazi officials at the site inconveniently forgot to do.....so we had witnesses?
This lack of evidence has inevitably led to the usual suspects on the internet using this as proof the entire Holocaust never happened.Its fascinating stuff,like the JFK assassination where the evidence seems to fuel the conspiracy. To be gassed by Diesel fumes is a very slow process normally,and some of the emissions actually contain Oxygen.So if you're gonna top yourself in your garage,don't bother if your car is a Diesel version,and even more so if your car is Electric...although I'm sure someone, somewhere, has tried.
Electric cars just burst into flames anyway;a much quicker way to go than asphyxiation by Diesel fumes.
Anyway, the Nazi's seem to have sorted that problem out......but i heard that the engines weren't Diesel after all, that was yet another Urban Legend it seems...shame.
Some smart arsed archaeologist, has now finally done the bleeding obvious and excavated the sight,and scanned it with radar and found bone fragments,a couple of mass graves and the foundations of the alleged Gas chamber. 
Nonetheless, those naughty Nazi men did a fine job covering it up,so the conspiracy people aren't satisfied just yet.Which is good,as fake history is always more entertaining that the real thing.....ask Donald.....he doesn't even subscribe to the obvious fact that his chum Benny Netanyahu is committing a brutal Genocide on unarmed Palestinians en masse. Trump would love to be able to do that,but, its not good for business.
I may get cancelled so I won't drone on...you know what I mean.
Good Rave from the mass grave on this tape anyhow.

Die Sonne Satan – "Fac-Totum" (Slaughter Productions – T. 07) 1993



As background music to your Tupperware themed fondue soirée, this isn't gonna put you off that much needed purchase of  the resealable Salad tosser......you tossers.It does,however, have a Tupperware party favourite from  "Le Mystere Des Voix Bulgares" album on 4AD,nicked,sampled and adapted ,only slightly, for the average Italian dark ambient fan,and renamed "Dismal Chant"? If you have any trendy art gallery attendees who dress like members of Chumbawumba (NHS Glasses and black polo-necks) as friends,this will go down like a Flux of Pink Indians remix at a Yoga class.......generally attended by actual Pink Indians, with a cloakroom full of ethic textiles awaiting their departure to hang out in the organic section of an ethically based supplier.All kept fresh in the very same recyclable Tupperware knock-offs that have put Tupperware out of business.One down several billion to go.
A stone carving appearing to predict Donald Trump appears on the cover ,depicting "The Donald" showing appropriate reverence,(Fear), upon meeting the very same vengeful Deity he so recently adopted as his own personal explanation for his own undeniable greatness.
As for, One Man band, Die Sonne Satan's very deniable greatness;again, its very listenable Dark Ambient for the decernable misanthrope's tea-party.Nothing original, or disturbing going on here,especially the clubby number with 'beats'?;but, it makes for a similar type of background music that James Last provided the extinct beast that was the suburban housewife with, in the 70's; except this is for the Subhuman housewife of the post industrial 90's.
You can play this whilst staring at yourself in the mirror pretending that life is a really terrible thing....and you'd be right, but not for the reasons you think it is. If you like John Carpenter's soundtrack music,and wearing black,This is very you. And it says 'Satan' too....TeeHeeHee.
Gee Mom you're so square,Satan's been cool since the first Black Sabbath LP.He/her/they have all the best tunes...except for that Hair Metal bunch of reprobate twats that is.I'd sell my soul to Jesus if he could sort out some eternal pain for Motley Crue.....who wouldn't?

(The tracklisting's up there innit,so i won't bother pasting it in here)

Atrax Morgue – "In Search Of Death" (Slaughter Productions – SPT01) 1993


Another Ed Gein reference, another photo of a botched suicide victim on the slab, the word vaginal,...it's all adding up to another interchangeable Industrial/Power Electronics cassette.Especially popular in Italy.
Italians like Prog Rock and Industrial culture...rather too much it seems....like me; but I can see the tiresome sameness of 110% of the participants in this genre. Anyone can make a tape like this everyday if they were so inclined,whereas its not so easy to be a punk band.You may require 2 or three chords to write a Punk Rock song,which qualifies as an actual bone-fide song rather than a throbbing noise passing itself off as a tribute to some obscure mass murderer in Siberia(no talent required);but for the Industrial Genre as a whole you only need zero chords to be included. This is Prog Rock for the kids who felt excluded at a Yes Concert,and a far more inclusive experience than Punk Rock pretended to be......"You are Us,but stay down there" (Jimmy Pursey,"Tell us the truth" LP live side 1978)
So it gets to the point where everyone is on the stage and no-one is in the mosh pit. Ultimately making music irrelevant ,we can all do this at home,never bother going out. Do It Yourself,or DIY,....a position heavily promoted by this blog.The trouble with that noble philosophy is that if everyone did it themselves we'd end up with something like 'Bandcamp', a seething morass,mess, of  every genre of the past 70 years turned into a haystack with no needles in.......and there's no way out.DON'T DO IT YOURSELF
If i heard this in 1980 i would have enjoyed it as much as watching The Damned live in 1977.
Don't misunderstand me, this is a great tape,but,what's the point?...and the Damned are still touring.
I Envy those unattainable days, when Pop Stars were the closest we were ever gonna get to having a God......sorry ladies, there were no goddesses back then,although I don't think we are allowed to use the word in these trans-gendered days.....we are ALL Gods.Rather like the problem with relevance modern musicians find themselves nudged off the track by.In a world of Gods,and heaven and Hell are also full of Gods, the one who rejects his God status becomes the God for the Gods,for where there is a need to invent him,he ceases to exist.
...Hmmmm I think i've wrote something like this before?....with a link to the Monty Python Sketch of "Bicycle Repairman";which sums up this quandary very nicely indeed.
Also i may be running out of vaguely unoriginal things to say.....like a literary Bandcamp.
Basically,the best Rock Star on your street, where everyone and his cat has a album out,is the one who has no interest in being a Star in the slightest.....and doesn't even bother making an old school Industrial tape like this one.
What a Guy!?

Vaginal Jesus – "Beat Rodney Down" (Reich O Rama Records) 1993




"Vaginal Jesus" wasn't that a hit for Depeche Mode?.....
Don't you just wish that DM sneakily released a tune like 'Bloodnigger',and all those pasty-faced lost generation types in the USA didn't realise its sophisticated angle on bigotry as a mirror approach? As in the Ironic Bigotry of this hatecore masterclass by the superbly named Vaginal Jesus.
It is understood that Seth Putnam of Anal Cunt was in Vaginal Jesus?.....I dunno what gave the rumour machine that impression? 
I like a good  tasteless racist joke so i do, but it is certainly how you tell 'em that counts.
Of course there were stacks of Come Org records that plumbed the depths of good taste in the eighties,but that was 'Art' wasn't it? It never came close to recreating the knuckle dragging horror of actual real Racial prejudice. Now,this record is the closest I've ever heard to recreating the racial hatred of a KKK  Grand Wizard,without actually being one;so us confused white boys could understand.
Naturally, i could be reading far too much into this brutal sledgehammer of neanderthal driven Hate,but I figure that yer actual Bigot wouldn't want music, as civilisation crushing as this, anywhere near their fucking Churches.
These fuckers...racist Sasquatches all ....were running scared from Nirvana in 1993,so only their god knows what they would have made of a group with a singer/growler called The Honorable Reverend Fuckface Chainsaw,that existed in the same time frame as the woefully insipid Nirvana?
The trick, with Bad taste is that to understand good bad taste you have to have Good taste in order to recognise yer actual bad bad taste, and yer actual Good Bad taste.
I'm going out on a limb now by saying that Vaginal Jesus may well be Good bad taste......but, even if it isn't, I still like it...a lot. Who wouldn't want a record released with a Side Aryan and a Side Bigot on it?
Maybe without using your real name mind you...that's just asking for trouble;just ask The Honorable Reverend Fuckface Chainsaw.
There will,sadly, be person's,previously described as knuckle dragging Sasquatch fucking Neanderthals, who will be taking this record 100% literally.As they do with thar best-selling fiction book "The bible", which isn't surprising as its crammed full of lovely Elizabethan poetry,with lashings of  genocidal ,misogynistic, homophobic violence of the highest order. Just like yer average Anal Cunt record.

Tracklist:

Side Aryan:

A1 Slave Runaway 0:52
A2 Beat Rodney Down 2:17
A3 Die Homie Die 0:38
A4 Bloodnigger 2 0:12

Rudimentary Peni ‎– "Live At "The Wherehouse" Derby 11/04/1993" (Dogbreath Tapes ) 1993


Indeed yes, the crowd managed to turn the classic "1/4 Dead" into a singalong number? A bit like what Freddie Mercury did to the Banana Boat Song at Live Aid....or Live Aids in his case. I would have loved to have heard Nick Blinko do the same with this lot in Derby '93. Not renowned for his intra-song banter, Blinko keeps fittingly stumm  between each mini symphony before they launch into the next minute long opera. Blinko's voice however is not in top gear for most of this rare appearance ,rarely achieving that effortless screaming tone he managed on the early Rudi-P material.I blame his medication.
I'm informed that UK Anarcho Punk is rather trendy in California in recent years?Even tempting The Mob to reform and play gigs again.Maybe even Rudi-p could get it together and do some more live shows,at least in Europe with this upsurge in interest from the golden state? We don't want former Anarchist,Steve Ignorant to corner the market over there now do we?

1 Cosmetic Plague
2 Teenage Time-Killer

Various Artists – "Tokyo Flashback 3" (P.S.F. Records – PSFD-34) 1993




 Yeah I dig,I dig,Alan!
This Alan Cumming geezer gets it right in his sleeve notes. As Japan was cut off from the outside world in centuries gone by,they were again in the post war era,as far as the west was concerned, albeit only musically.
Before 1993,all I knew of Japanese pop music was the bloody awful Yellow Magic Orchestra, and The rather amusing Frank Chickens,who i saw as a novelty act more than a musical turn.
The afore mentioned eclecticism that is so evidently rife in all Japanese music,tended to produce an identifiable form of extreme music that specifically came only from Japan and nowhere else.Their Free Jazz is more extreme, Their Rock is noisier,their Noise is Noisier, their Pop unfathomable, fueled by,as Cummings puts it, an Interzone of possibilities trapped behind one way glass,observing outwards at a wonderland through the looking glass.
Western ears were not attuned to this ,even if they did have the same record collections, their Branes needed to be trained,and the membrane penetrated.
Enter the Tokyo Flashback compilations......ahhh now i understand, I think?
There's plenty of noisy stoner rock, free improvisation,skewed versions of classic anglo-saxon pop,and other unidentifiable stuff.White Heaven,for example, features a rather bizarre singer who sounds for want of a better word, Drunk;but i suspect its a Japanese accent of some form?
As Krautrock was populated by bands who couldn't really play their instruments like those Anglo-Saxon Progressive Rock stars,so had to play within their abilities to create something accidently 'Neu'. Japrock was full of equally unschooled musicians who tried and failed to play the Psychedelia of that tired western template,but instead of playing within their abilities ,they focused on the noise and the freedom and went further.Embrace your inabilities and magnify them There was nothing like Fushitsusha anywhere else,not even in West Germany, 1970......and don't forget Fushitsusha were going even before then!?

Tracklist

1 Overhang Party– Fever 7:49
2 White Heaven– Midsummer Stroll 5:36

Ascension ‎– "Live / Dead" (Dirter Promotions ‎– DPROMLP31) 1993


Ran out of Pussy...again....so if you thought Harry Pussy was the only band in 1993 to sound like that,other than any group with Derek Bailey or Keiji Haino in,you is wrong.Using That oft-used phrase...'Meanwhile,In The UK', there was Ascension, featuring that bloke Stefan Jaworzyn from Skullflower,who, made a fairly similar uncompromising racket with Guitars and Drums.Think Pharoah Sanders but with electric guitars,as captured in a pub in Camden.Normally, this 'orrible noise would empty any public house of its public;but knowing 'The Monarch' this would have increased the audience to a barely legal 30,.... at best.
Shut a bunch of Chimp's into a room full of instruments and you'd get a similar result.....which is the intention I suppose? Rediscovering your inner primative,a musical re-birthing,a primal scream from within your life-force.....and No Bobby Gillespie needed.

Harry Pussy ‎– "Vigilance!" (Chocolate Monk ‎– choc.35) 1993


For some people, only clearing a room with your godawful racket just isn't good enough, Harry Pussy, a name so terrible it's inspired, aren't satisified until they've cleared at least a small building,maybe even a modest sized village? 
Husband and wife duo of Bill Orcutt (Him) and Adris Hoyos (Her) did to the guitar and drums what sixties free jazzers did to the Saxophone,to make a torturous noise.The guitar screaming for its life and the drums being soundly clubbed to death with no apparent plan.
It's never a good Idea to be in a band,or even work with, one's spouse.On one hand you end up with something like Wings, or on the other end up hating each other and divorcing,like Moore and Gordon of Middle-Aged Youth.......I'm surprised Thurston Moore doesn't make a guest appearence on this tape,as he always hangs around bands with good write-ups that he ain't in like a bad smell......maybe he did later in the Pussy's career.
Of course 'Him' and 'Her' divorced later,as marriage has the same effect on music and it does on a sex life....it kills the magick and you split up....or become Fleetwood Mac.
This C120 cassette has its eccenticities,which i thought was a tape fault,but apparently not? The sound keeps dropping out,and on some occasions music from another part of the session is inserted momentarily. I'm informed that this was a deliberate act inspired by the Films of Jean Luc Godard????? However, Bill adds: “It was also a useful way to pad out a short recording to fill a 2 hour tape, since we could reuse the snippets......I'm prone to accept the latter explaination personally.The guy from from Chocolate Monk,as quoted in the psuedo-intellectuals bible, Wire magazine, said: "...I guess the recording mechanism was a bit goofed up so a gap keeps appearing".
Its a pity Harry Pussy didn't do a collaboration with Jandek?At least, post split and divorce, Adris could have backed up the ginger one at one of the Corwood Rep's live appearences? Something for the near future I suggest?
Er...no....i'm not gonna mention the attempted coup d'etat in the USA yesterday by what looked remarkably like Jamiroquai with a degenerative brain condition due to their mom's ingesting some dodgy redneck pills during pregnancy.......listen to this instead, its far more coherent and relaxing than a bunch of terminally stupid conspiracy theorists with beards.

David Koresh - "Home Recordings 1990-93" (Bootleg) 1993


In downtime on the Ranch, in between shooting at FBI agents, and the odd bit of statutory raping, Dave the Messiah would play a bit of divine pop music. 
Some of it was captured in the foggy medium of ferric oxide cassette tape, which gives these already spooky toons a further ghostly quality that sends chills even further up your spine.
Human beings are bloody dangerous, especially Human beings with delusions of grandeur armed with electric guitar and marshall stack!......that could actually describe a lot of rock and metal acts out there today!
If Koresh was allowed to have a local hit maybe he would have forgot that he was actually 'Jesus' mark 2? He just craved the attention he was denied as a child and lots of compliant women to have sex with...that's all!?....the average life of a Rock Star is it not?
Thankfully Motley Crue made it in the world of shite american FM metal, or we could have had four more Waco's on our hands.....but at least those bastards would have killed themselves and not still be walking the Earth today.

David Koresh - "Voice Of Fire (Expanded) - The Complete David Koresh" (Bootleg) 1993


Vernon Wayne Howell, otherwise known as David Koresh, or Jesus, thought of himself as a minor rock star,and before he immolated himself ,his many kids,and followers to death in the Davidian Cult HQ in Waco.Where he recorded lots of terrible adult orientated rock numbers for posterity.
When Dave wasn't exercising his exclusive rights to have sex with all the female members of the sect, be they under-age or married, Koresh, plugged in his axe into his massive PA system and wrote some soft rock ballads in tribute to the glory of God....ie himself.
Apparently he had a tough childhood, an estranged paedophile for a father,abandoned by mummy, and learning difficulties.So poor lickle Vernon was ripe pickings for the esteem raising possibilities of cult leadership.
Once enthroned at the Davidian ranch HQ, he even got away with attempting to murder his rival for the throne,who was found guilty of murdering another group member. Koresh, got off the attempted murder trial on a technicality, leaving him free to attain living god status, and sing his tunes to an adoring audience of his own children. He fathered over a bakers dozen worth of children, mainly bore by the wives of his followers, and in some cases the children of the very same people.He was free from prosecution because he had the consent of the parents to have sex with their daughters!?.....yep, this was in Texas.
The famous seige began in 1993 with a raid by the  Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms looking for guns...and they found them.Generally in the hands of demented brainwashed cultists shooting in their general direction, killing four agents!
A stand off ensued with the FBI, while our Dave wrote his massive 12 page theological statement about the Seven Seals (whatever they are?),which took days to write,the slowness of which was excused by the fact that he had difficulty spelling......yes thats right, Jesus can't spell!?
Vernon Howell in action.
No, Not Mick Ronson, Its the messiah!

I must warn you that several of the sect's members said that they were recruited by Koresh's music, so, listen with caution,or you too could have your girlfriend,wife, or daughter knocked up by a varifocaled,mullet sporting messiah.Then burned to death in a hopeless face off with the authorities.

Thirdorgan ‎– "Cyclotron" (G.R.O.S.S. ‎– GR-018) 1993


Remember the last time you used that old Cyclotron you stuffed in the attic? Well, it didn't sound like this, so I dunno what Mister Thirdorgan is alluding to?
Most of us have now upgraded to modern particle accelerators anyway, so the sound of the Cyclotron belongs firmly in the era of Elvis and Jerry Lee, when statutory rape was called marriage.
Thats the best Industrial culture reference I could come up with for the title, except that its also a good word, that could also suggest the birth of really dodgy science and its insideous influence on modern existence. Ah the good ol' days, when everyone thought everything was shit and couldn't wait to get to the future. Now we know the future is even shitter than the Fifties, and the prospects of the future after this are not looking too rosey.
Nowadays, we have the massive particle accelerators at CERN in Switzerland,where atoms have been smashed to reveal 99% of all of the elementary particles that made up the previously elemental particles that we thought we knew about. Including the semi-mythical 'God' particle, the 'Higgs Boson'.A particle that ,in theory could trigger a rapidly expanding vacuum bubble that could wipe out the known universe.This theory of a Higgs boson doomsday, where a quantum fluctuation creates this vacuum "bubble" isn't likely to happen anytime soon, but,on the other hand it may have already happened, and the bubble might be on its way here now. And you won't know because it's going at the speed of light so there's not going to be any warning.
Even more intriguingly is the theory that would prevent this from happening and stablise the universe infinitely, 'Super Symmetry'.This suggests that every particle has an anti-twin to balance it out.Raising the distinct possiblity that there is a shadow version of yourself lurking somewhere in the Higgs Field, possiblity doing all the things you hate in other people.Somewhere there's a shadow Akihiro Shimizu (Thirdorgan man)making melodic danceable sunshine pop thats in the charts on an Earth thats populated by a species of human that gives a shit about the consequences of their actions. Sadly, there's more evidence that we are on the brink of Doomsday.
So basically the meaning of this album is, if one doomsday scenario doesn't get you, another one certainly will.The favourite being limited Human longevity, closely followed by imminent evironmental collapse.
So do something nice before you cease to exist and donate $5 to help save the Pangolin by clicking this highlighted link thing what i done!

Thirdorgan ‎– "The Pornography Of Despair" (SSS Productions ‎– SSS45) 1993


Well I never!?....how rude?
How downright inappropriate is that artwork? However,despite being literally ,too,appropriate in accordance with the title, it very appropriately appeals to the labido of your average Harsh Noise consumer locked away in their bedroom at Mum and Dads house. Mainly because they can masturbate with their fist organ (they have no girlfriends normally) while looking at the artwork in conjunction with listening to the relentless scraping of the abused electronic nightmare served up for us by Akihiro Shimizu.
Of course us Bloggers have no need for Pornography because we have a steady stream of modern womanhood and/or finely honed young gay gentlemen kicking our doors down just to bathe in our light for 5 minutes. Then they can all just fuck off and leave us alone, because our self-asteem is so secure we don't really need anything so vulgar in our superior lives.......now thats clear, where's that ladies underwear catalog?....Phwoooooaaaar! Knickers Knackers Knockers Missus!

Incapacitants ‎– "Stupid Is Stupid" (Sounds For Consciousness Rape ‎– S.F.C.R. 027) 1993



Stupid is stupid is stupid is stupid as stupid does, would be a catchphrase for the Trump and NRA stance on Gun Laws.
Yesterday there was the 18th school shooting this year in the USA, and its only half way through February. That's exactly 18 more school shootings than in the whole of the rest of the planet!?....probably more than in every country combined for all time!
The argument this time is that if the innocent Assault Rifle hadn't had a mentalist attached to it, it wouldn't have killed anybody!???....like no other country has mental cases who want to kill people?...the difference is...and its a simple but big difference, is that the mental cases in every other country except the USA can't get hold of Automatic weaponry!
Its also far easier to remove a gun from a situation rather than a human being......even though their dumb-ass answer to that is to just shoot the Human leaving the gun inoperable.
This double cassette has nothing to do with the NRA or those stupid is stupid U.S. gun laws, but the sound recorded on them could easily be a soundtrack to a mass shooting by an angry young outcast with a K-Mart shopping bag full of ammo.
This only happens in the USA, and noise of this quality only happens in Japan....well at least for the past thirty years anyway.

Flying Testicle ‎– "Space Desia" (Charnel Music ‎– CHCD-8) 1993



A Japnoise 'Super Groop' called 'Flying Testicle'?????....it don't get much better than this!
That bloke from 'Merzbow', and that screamy bloke from 'Masonna', get down and make some sublimely, or subliminally fucked up Noise Rock that could clear a room of music fans in 60 seconds or less.
That's always a recommendation.
Underneath the mind destroying wreckage this is as close to actual song based music these reprobates have ever sailed close to, without hitting the 'Rock' and sinking in that abysmally redundant category. This is what 'Rock' music should sound like.A decontructed power trio from an anti-universe,devastatingly LOUD and obnoxious, a sonically offensive musical bad trip. It preserves the processed noise onslaught that its individual members are famed for,but adds conventional instruments to the morass to reel in the casual metalhead before they burst into tears.
All topped off by that ridiculous band name.....nearly perfect.

Andrew Chalk and Giancarlo Toniutti ‎– "Tahta Tarla" (Pans'urlo Panseri ‎– G:Rᵐ–>Rⁿ / 03Rⁿ) 1993


Silence is often louder and more disturbing than the visceral noise that Andrew Chalk began his career with as Ferial Comfine.
This tinnitus style collaboration with early Italian Industrialist Giancarlo Toniutti, is as disturbing as being confronted by your own hidden thoughts.
As it's our last post of this very....very.... crap year of 2017,it will give you a chance to reflect upon the tragedy of the rise of a new dark age of popularism. For the first time since the Berlin Wall came down, there's a real danger that we have leaders stupid enough to start a nuclear conflict. So savor what could be your last chance to say 'Happy New Year',no matter how ironic are those words or vacuous those tedious fireworks displays are , because next time, we could all be DEAD!

Con-Dom ‎– "A Prince Of Our Disorder" (Sounds For Consciousness Rape ‎– SFCR CD004) 1993





"Con-Dom stands for Control-Domination, and is the one-man industrial noise band of Mike Dando. Con-Dom explores any kind of social tensions and control: political, religious, racial, with an acid, violent and uncompromising attitude. He is well-known in the industrial scene for his furious ravaging vocals and the devastating live performances, in which he turns into a real stage animal."
So it says on Discogs.
I suppose this person is the British equivalent of G.G. Allin?Acting out the role of the most disgusting person on the planet.Spouting racism ,and other vile traits of a bigot,he confronts us with all that is ugly about the human animal.
Frequently attacking and groping audience members; often on the receiving end, as his victims defend themselves, -Dando is attempting to explore the depths of his own personality by more than just flirting with extremes,he actually tries to become them.A kind of musical method acting equivalent in a quest for personal freedom
Control-Domination is the theme. Control, domination, manipulation, organisation ... The forces of control  - mass culture, mass media, mass mentalities.Freedom lies from within, and Con-Dom believes to attain that one has to challenge taboo's and the extremities of human behaviour to discover the pure personality within.
Well, its either that or he's an attention seeking racist sex pervert who places shock value over content.
This album,which consists of a 3" Cd and cassette, is dedicated to T.E. Lawrence (of Arabia),with whom he seems obsessed.
" It is a journey into the realm of the intensely personal - one man's outer struggle and inner search for an individual "faith"; one man's very personal response to the human condition. Lawrence was a remarkable man - an enigmatic outsider who lived a tortured odyssey of physical and spiritual extremes in pursuit of a goal; a way. His life, writings and example are an inspiration to all who crave real freedom".
Personally, I don't wanna go through the Live Con-Dom experience,just as I wouldn't wanna have been beaten up by G.G.Allin, but I'm open to the concept,and the Records aren't too far off the standard of a good Whitehouse release. Nice packaging too.

This Heat ‎– "Repeat" (These Records ‎– THESE 6 CD) 1993



The posthumous “third” album from This Heat keeps the sequence of alliteration going ,This Heat, Deceit, and now, Repeat. Not released during the groups lifetime,it consists of three tape experiments from around 1979/80, one of which we all know better as “24 track loop” from the début album. This version though is the 20 minute version called “Repeat”, a repeated drum loop treated and dubbed up until its in a state of flux, yet remains the same. Like Tago Mago era Can's wilful repetition as remixed by King Tubby.
Track two is a previously unknown track called “Metal; which is the band banging a load of metal objects for twenty plus minutes. Probably the idea was to record a mass of junk percussion to create tape loops for the rhythmic foundation of some new tunes. This approach was pioneered by those other Krautrock legends, Faust, and later hijacked by Einsturzende Neubauten. This Heat obviously absorbed a lot of German Progressive musik, and mixed it up with punk rock, dub, and the avant garde.
Track three is a quarter of an hour tape loop drone experiment; with the reel-to-reel's varispeed slider being manipulated by an unnamed This Heater and fed through a Harmoniser; probably Gareth Williams methinks. Also found as the b-side to “Health and efficiency”.
By far their most avant garde recordings,where they even manage to out-Can Can!

Track Listing:

1 – Repeat (20.21)
2 - Metal (23.17)
3 – Graphic -Varispeed (33rpm) (15.27)

不失者(Fushitshusha) ‎– 寓意的な誤解 (Allegorical Misunderstanding)- (Avant ‎– AVAN 008) 1993

Fushitsusha captured in laid back form, in a Studio. Noisey freak outs are replaced by medium paced,disjointed, improvised cleanish guitar slashing; backed up by barely syncopated bass and drums. 灰野敬 (Haino Keiji) interjects with his trademark tortured whispers and anguished screams, to make a kind of Japanese Blues, totally devoid of any afro-american influence.This is a good thing is it not?
