Dark/Light
[engl] Dark/Light, the extended play release by New Tongues, is a mesmerizing journey through a blend of complementary music genres that shape a luxurious and reverberant ambiance. While the noise-rock influences are apparent, the EP also draws inspiration from post-punk and post-rock, resulting in a truly incredible musical experience. One of the notable aspects of New Tongues’ sound is their specific approach, which often combines minimal and complex instrumentations. Many of their compositions start with intricate rhythmic patterns and heavy basslines, gradually layering guitars and vocals on top. The guitars play a crucial role, offering raw, abrasive, and heavily distorted themes, leads, melodies, harmonies, chord progressions, riffs, and other virtuosities that shine brightly in the mix. The lead vocalist’s contributions further enhance the orchestrations through a clever combination of shouts and clean vocal harmonies. His delivery perfectly complements the intense and atmospheric nature of the music, adding another layer of depth to the overall sound. One of the most striking elements of Dark/Light is the reverby and rehearsal-like production quality. The EP is drenched in a decent amount of studio reverb, creating a mystique and obscure atmosphere that enhances the listening experience. This particular detail adds an eerie note to the ambiance and further immerses the listener into New Tongues’ world. Dark/Light is an essential listening experience for fans of the genre, as New Tongues masterfully blend noise rock, post-rock, and post-punk into a colossal slab of well-articulated noise. The EP showcases the band’s expertise in crafting intricate compositions that simultaneously captivate and challenge the listener. The attention to detail and the musicianship displayed throughout the record exemplify the band’s experience and talent. The EP opens with the title track, “Stay Woke,” a brooding and atmospheric piece that sets the tone for what’s to come. The drums provide a steady foundation, while the bassline adds a hypnotic groove. As the guitars enter, the song builds in intensity, culminating in a cathartic release that leaves a lasting impression. Another standout track is “Gentle Release,” which showcases New Tongues’ ability to create dynamic and nuanced compositions. The song features intricate guitar work, shifting between atmospheric textures and blistering riffs, all anchored by a tight rhythm section. The vocals intertwine with the instrumentation, adding a layer of complexity to the overall sound. “Beautification Project” serves as a fitting follow-up, combining elements of noise and post-rock to create a captivating sonic landscape. The song builds gradually, with layers of guitars and vocals intertwining to create a sense of tension and release. The track showcases the band’s ability to create an immersive and emotionally charged musical journey. New Tongues also showcase their admiration towards electronic music with “Salt The Fields,” which also closes this exceptional material. Their combination of minimal, cinematic, downtempo ambient with classic electronic music comes as a bit of refreshment and perfect closure to this EP. Dark/Light by New Tongues is an EP that demands immediate attention. The band’s skillful blend of noise rock, post-rock, and post-punk resulted in a colossal slab of well-articulated noise. The intricate compositions, heavy basslines, abrasive guitars, and atmospheric vocals create a mesmerizing ambiance that is both intriguing and immersive. Dark/Light is more than rock-solid proof of their craft, and it will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on anyone who listens to it.- Format

Schönes Artwork. Das finnische Duo schickt sich an mit seinem 4.Album den Durchbruch zu schaffen: die Brillianz einer Band wie Russian Circles erreichen sie mit einem Mann weniger auf eindrucksvolle Art und Weise: geloopte, durch ein wahnwitziges Effekte-Laboratorium geschickte Gitarrenarbeit und ein unermüdlich antreibender und auch subtil zurückgenommener Drummer schaffen frickelige, gleissende Mathrock-Hymnen, die mit Postmetal neuerdings weniger gemeinsam haben, als mit Postrock und New Artrock: die neuerdings sehr elektronisch verfremdeten Gitarren klingen mittlerweile wie eine Synthie, die Drumpattern sind abwechslungsreicher eingesetzt und Nyos fesseln mit ihrer gewaltigen Tour de Force schon wieder: dabei ist Album Nr. 4 definitiv ihr ambitioniertestes und abwechslungsreichstes Werk geworden: erinnert auch an die letzten TWDY-Releases.- Format

OBNOX
Know America
[engl] Coming at you direct from Cleveland, Ohio, Lamont “Bim” Thomas has transitioned seamlessly from journeyman sticksman in some of the state’s finest bands (This Moment In Black History, Unholy Two, Puffy Areolas, Bassholes, etc.) to the full-on phenomenon known as Obnox. From a foundation of dirt-level garage punk, Thomas sculpts deep cuts out of blown-out beats, redline guitar damage, and soulful singing, as if your local gospel choir had been raised on a steady diet of The Pagans and Back From the Grave comps. Incredibly, 'Know America' -- Obnox’s fifth full-length -- is the second of three albums to come out in 2015. In addition, 'Know America' is the first of two albums this year on NYC label-to-watch Ever/Never Records. Part of an ambitious Ever/Never 2015 release schedule, 'Know America' secures Obnox’s top ranking amongst the creme de la creme of the worldwide underground. 'Know America' is a loose concept album, something like Thomas’ deep soul take on 'Pump Up The Volume' or 'Airheads'. Right at the start, on “Signal Takeover,” Obnox is hijacking the radio waves. A DJ that sounds suspiciously like Thomas, let us know that we are tuned to “Radio 420 WEDE” and that we better prepare for some “trunk punk.” In case you haven’t picked up what he’s laying down, Thomas informs you that the LP you just slapped on your turntable is “reefer on wax.”- Format

Cacophony
[engl] In the cacophony of contemporary noise rock, Power-take-Off emerges like a primal force, drowning you in waves of distorted drone infused with subterranean sub-sonics and seismic thuds, punctuated by moments of nuanced psychosis. This isn't just music; it's a confrontation spewing out paranoid diatribes that crawl under your skin. While soaking in this album's menacing aura you will be assaulted with ominous original pieces as well as a few possibly familiar covers, where PtO burrows deep below the surface of songs that were already relentless and twisted to mine even more frightening audio sludge. A tip of the hat to a few sinister influences. So who's behind this parade of the horribles anyway? Power-take-Off is the work of Gus Engstrom of the defunct Grids (a killing spree of a band in their own right) and a revolving cast of musical miscreants. Together they mount a visceral auditory barrage on your ears, a claustrophobic labyrinth of paranoia for you to frolic in. If you have any Rusted Shut, Clockcleaner, Head Of David, King Snake Roost, Swans, Harvey Milk, SUNN, Melvins, or Flipper in your record collection, then I believe you've found a winner here.- Format

Michael Dose
[engl] Prayer Group has brought forth into this hellish world their new record “Michael Dose” for all to take heed of, worship, and then experience the disappointment that is life through the music of these Richmond, VA noisemongers. Having proven themselves several times over through various EPs and tours, the band has focused their ill-will with this new LP, their first for the Reptilian, and their finest effort to date. Of course, comparisons are inevitable to torch-bearers such as Pissed Jeans and Jesus Lizard with regard to the shouted drawl of the vocals, the bombastic approach to their off-kilter rock, and furious combination of the strange, creepy, and exciting. However, Prayer Group also share sonic DNA with contemporaries like the experimental wailing thud of later Breather Resist, the unhinged depravity of Blacklisters, or the all-out thunderous rock assault of Buildings. “Michael Dose” (an in-joke mispronunciation of "microdose") is an album with 11 tracks showing the band taking these varied influences and sounds, and turning them into a sonic steamroller. These sounds may be varied, but they come together to make a heck of a record and Prayer Group make a fine addition to the luminaries carrying the noise rock torch high.- Format

Rare and Lost 70s Recordings
[engl] Ultra- rare recordings by 70s UK avant- rockers Red Square, the missing link between original free- noise practitioners like AMM, Nihilist Spasm Band and Peter Brotzmann and post- No Wavers ala the Blue Humans, Borbetomagus, Fushitsusha, and the Dead C. Named after the early Soviets Constructivists, Red Square is a pioneering free- improvising, avant- rock band. They bridged the worlds of psychedelic rock, noise and avant- jazz, and many of the techniques and approaches to music that they helped to pioneer have become common practice today. Pre- dating Sonic Youth by seven years, Last Exit by a decade and Matt Gustafsson?s The Thing by twenty five, their railing aural assaults were once considered too extreme for commercial release. Formed in Southend- On- Sea in 1974 by guitar player Ian Staples (fresh from gigging at the Middle Earth club with Ginger Johnson?s African Drummers, sharing stage with Pink Floyd and Marc Bolan among others), bass clarinet / sax player Jon Seagroatt and free- jazz drummer Roger Telford, their unusual sound was an amalgam of jazz, improv and avant- rock, fuelled by the loud electric guitar of Ian Staples, whose style has been described as a ?revolutionary blend of Hendrix and Beefheart, with the sonic palettes of Derek Bailey and Stockhausen?. Ian?s atonal guitar riffs referenced metal without ever becoming metal. Red Square shared stages with Henry Cow, Lox Coxhill, David Toop and National Health and they were also involved with Music For Socialism. But their extreme sound and attitude were too much for both audience and record companies. The band imploded in 1978 with only two ultra- rare private cassettes releases as their only legacy. In 2008, they reformed again and they?re still playing and recording to this date. ?Rare and Lost 70s Recordings? includes a complete never- before- heard heavy studio session from 1978 plus a thunderous live set opening for fellow "rock in opposition" mavens Henry Cow, recorded with perfect sound quality in 1976.- Format

Turn
"„Die Grazer Gitarren-Schlagzeug-Walze beschwört die vom Punk beseelten Geister der Metal-Avantgarde mit sich gewaltig auftürmen Soundwänden, repetitiver Härte und vorwiegend instrumentaler, eigenständiger Rockmusik. Düstere Metal-Elemente mit zornigen Noiserock-Parts werden lediglich mit Schlagzeug und tiefer Gitarre fusioniert.“ Die Rede ist von Reflector, üppig beschrieben auf einem Konzertflyer jüngeren Datums. Tatsächlich hat sich das Duo aus Graz seit seiner Gründung 1997, mittels langem Atem und Kontinuität, Legendenstatus in Österreich erarbeitet. Musikalisch am ehesten im Sludge Rock zu verorten, wobei für diese Schublade wohl auch zu experimentierfreudig, haben Reflector auf gekonnt innovative Weise ihren brachialen, aber dennoch emotionalen, Sound etabliert ohne je einem Versuch der genauen Beschreibung oder einem Vergleich mit anderen Bands gerecht zu werden. Auf ihr Konto gehen sechs Alben und einige Singles. Das letzte Album, sozusagen Reflectors Opus Magnum „The Heritage“, erschien auf den drei Lables Noise Appeal, Rock is Hell und Interstellar Records. Auf dieses folgte kurz darauf eine Box mit vier Singles, ein „Best of“ wenn man so will, neu eingespielt mit befreundeten GastmusikerInnen zum 15-jährigen Bestehen der Band. Soweit die Vorgeschichte. Andreas Heller und David Reumüller, müssen mit dem Rücken zur Wand gestanden sein, denn ein nächster logischer Schritt um Reflector als Duo weiter zu entwickeln, schien kaum mehr möglich. Plötzlich, und doch recht unvermutet, betritt Martin Plass die Bühne bzw. den Proberaum. Eingeweihte kennen ihn als begnadeteten Sänger und Bassisten der Striggles, sowie als Rockveteran der sich bereits in den 80er Jahren als Rampensau diverser berüchtigter Bands ausgezeichnete. Reflector und The Striggles haben etliche gemeinsame Konzerte und kleine Touren gemeinsam bestritten, dabei dürfte der Funke übergesprungen sein. Seither erhellen Martin Plass leuchtende Stimme und ein knochenbrechender Bass Reflectors Universum. Ein neues Album mit dem treffenden Titel „Turn“ wird aufgenommen und von Bernd Heinrauch produziert. Sieben Songs, inklusive Coverversion von „If you go away“, scheinen wie durch einen Pakt zwischen Himmel und Hölle entstanden zu sein. Eine Wende, wie sie in keine bessere Richtung hätte gehen können. Ausdifferenziert, clever und massiv. Ein Monolith."- Format

[engl] Third album by Serbian garage-postpunk-noise-rock trio Repetitor offers a high-voltage wall of sound, bursts of rage, fear, violence, pain and anxiety. On one side, we have Boris psychotically grinding his guitar strings and shredding chords with a punk attitude, soon to twist them into hurricane heavy riffs. On other side, there's playful and bouncy Ana-Marija, fused with her bass guitar working on cooking a post-punk balm. All of this is glued together by the untamable beast on drums, Milena, bittery drumming away like if it's the end of time. All three perform as one – all for one and one for all. In the noisy range of their guitar-based rock echoes The Stooges, Nirvana, Sonic Youth, Dead Moon, Suicide, Bikini Kill, Swans, and more – however, Repetitor are so genuine and unique that you can describe their music just by saying »Repetitor«.- Format

Prazan prostor medu nama koji moze i da ne postoji
[engl] The Repetitor's fourth album find the band at its most confident, employing an even more visceral sound while at the same time showcasing their most mature and diverse songwriting so far. The trio might appear meek at first glance, but the walls of noise the ferocious female drummer and bassist create with the savage skinny frontman are so massive they could move mountains. From the opening chord on, they unleash a blistering burst of noisy garage rock and succulent stoner riffs accompanied by unhinged vocals in Serbian that grab you by the throat. You are not released up until the closing diptych, their most fragile music to date. Without pretense and chart ambitions, Repetitor are the embodiment of Iggy and the Stooges' raw power, chewing up stages and rock clichés and spitting them out as no bullshit rock’n’roll.- Format

Mock
[engl] The fourth release from this Chicago band, MOCK is a masterpiece of dark, raucous, noise rock. Oozing with soul, crackling with danger, MOCK churns along in blown-out glory, spiraling downward like a party on the last night on Earth. Moments evoke Nirvana's sweet, melodic annihilation; moments evoke the unhinged twang of Lollipop or Cows. Frontman Jason Sipe holds court with a formidable voice – a mix of power and pain, confidence and vulnerability, he commands attention with every holler and howl. On the album's two ballads, "Drag the River" and "Worn Out Party," he slays with a haunted croon that recalls Elliott Smith. "It’s just a collection of feelings," states Sipe. "I guess it’s my way of communicating with whoever might hear our music and my way of documenting and publicly expressing who I am and the way I feel at this point in my life.” In the words of No Echo: "The group's classic Sub Pop meets AmRep noise rock has built up into a lean and mean beast of an operation.” MOCK was mixed by Mike Lust at Electrical Audio and Phantom Manner. The cover art was created by Allison Schild. Drummer Brian Wnukowski is also known as a founding (and current) member of old-school Chicago noise rockers Big'n.- Format
