sounds righteous

some two-step electronic composition and obnoxious noise-rock, not too bad though. Pretty interesting sound experimentation...not enough actual material though.

(*The Noonward Race*) 12-08-2011 10:24 PM

yeah reminds me of a lot of noise rock

the tune with the guitar is actually quite nice

the fourth one

god dude dont be snobby

this music is gay enough without seriously considering it "artfully composed"

SugarCoatedSour 12-09-2011 10:12 AM

oh, right.

SugarCoatedSour 12-09-2011 10:15 AM

"Noise" music is a chore in most cases anyway, unless you're in for a long haul with a full albums worth

But that group was tantamount to some highschoolers jamming with a recording program.

kitsch 12-09-2011 10:46 AM

i dont really know what you mean by chore

and i agree with you on your second statement, but i think that even that kind of noise music has value, a place and can be immensely enjoyable. the quality of the process of creation doesn't necessarily define the quality of the end result

SugarCoatedSour 12-09-2011 10:53 AM

by chore I meant that it takes warming up to. The 'sound' itself is rarely instantly engaging and it takes some time to appreciate the texture.

For that group there, that was far from their quality material.

kitsch 12-09-2011 11:07 AM

uhh its their debut ep

i dunno man i feel like i can get into different noise releases pretty easily. but i listen to a lot of harsh noise and power electronics so im an outlier i suppose

i feel like what you say applies more readily in cases of bands that are almost exclusively HNW

SugarCoatedSour 12-09-2011 11:10 AM

HNW??

ep's are not something I listen to much, unless they are some regarded in some way

kitsch 12-09-2011 11:18 AM

harsh noise wall

i dunno man, i love eps, the shorter listening experience isn't cheap, sometimes its just as hard to make an effective ep as it is an lp

SugarCoatedSour 12-09-2011 11:23 AM

I guess I'm not fully accustomed to the work-ethic of noise music. "Noiserock" I'm very familiar with, but not so much the sonic-assault sort of stuff.

(*The Noonward Race*) 12-09-2011 11:58 AM

i consider noise music to be like the new evolved punk sound

punk musicians have decided to learn the instrument a bit

and still get the same raucous wild textures but for today

they play the guitars like none else i love that

YDload 12-10-2011 11:54 AM

noise-rock without the "-rock" isnt very fun to listen to, it's like no-wave it's just a statement.

that said, Lechugillas put on a damn good show. im not sure if theyre actually noise or just noise-rock that was hard to understand live

(*The Noonward Race*) 12-10-2011 12:15 PM

[quote]noise-rock without the "-rock" isnt very fun to listen to, it's like no-wave it's just a statement.[/quote]my noise band adds a free jazz/jazz interactive improvisation element

that kind of seems even more no-wave-ish and ultimately pretentious

doesn't it? it bugs me sometimes, im not even as cool as the punks :-0

SugarCoatedSour 12-10-2011 12:47 PM

no sir, don't let the terms muddle the music. Everything comes from somewhere else, so its all equally worthless.

(*The Noonward Race*) 12-10-2011 12:49 PM

we do the best shows when we realize that that last fact

kitsch 12-10-2011 03:34 PM

heres a straight up noise release that has wonderfully unique textures and is compositionally impressive

SugarCoatedSour 12-10-2011 07:30 PM

who by and what album????

kitsch 12-10-2011 08:35 PM

f.e. denning - echoes of sumeria

its in the link

SugarCoatedSour 12-11-2011 12:14 PM

I see.

I've got a few noise albums, but haven't gotten to them yet.

kitsch 12-11-2011 02:56 PM

its worth it

album is only 20 min long

SugarCoatedSour 12-11-2011 04:24 PM

I've got it, listened to the first song all the way. HNW style. My experience lies with The Dead C and the various noise-groups of new zealand that cropped up with them. This is similar, as the noise is loaded with action, however I appreciate the actual live play of the Dead C. This ain't bad but its not really apparent whether it has any artistic imperative.

kitsch 12-11-2011 06:02 PM

the dead c rule, harsh 70s reality is one of my favorite albums

SugarCoatedSour 12-11-2011 06:08 PM

Yeah, I rocked their albums a few years back....probably before I knew what was what. Should give them a spin. Also Pelt is apparently quite noise, as well as Dadamah.

kitsch 12-12-2011 01:13 PM

DBlitz 12-16-2011 12:23 PM

slowdive - souvlaki
trespassers william - different stars
yo la tengo - and nothing....

mmm i really enjoy that ylt album.

going to try to give 'i can hear the heart beating...' more listens. it's one of those very obvious albums that i would probably like a lot but just never bother listening to it very much. i'm still on my initial listens over the past 2 or 3 years and it sounds pretty solid i guess, but 'and nothing' is just so fucking good. been listening to that one quite often this past year.

what are lust for youth like? seeing their name thrown around quite a bit recently; where should i start with them?

niobium 12-16-2011 03:42 PM

yeah that yo la tengo is very subdued it takes a few listens to have that sparseness really catch on. it's a sleeper ill put it on and just stare

bark psychosis - hex. another one that is truly catching up to me years later. they have a messy compilation series though i wouldn't mind a comprehensive remastering of all those spare singles/alt/live tracks they deserve it.

cbmartinez 12-17-2011 05:55 PM

werd, i was just listening to and nothing turns itself... and i was thinking the same thing. the things that make them good are so subtle, it definitely took me a few listens to start to dig it. still can't really get into i can hear the heart..., though i know thats blasphemous. "our way to fall" is incredible but the peak of that album for me is the crying of lot g to tears are in your eyes, beautiful

DBlitz 12-17-2011 06:24 PM

yessss

after tears are in your eyes i admit the album slips a bit. cherry chapstick has an enjoyable noise pop thing going on, but in the context of of the all the songs before it, it feels off. still, on it's own its very lush and likeable. the following two tracks don't conjure the same atmosphere as the first eight, and then i don't like 'tired hippo' at all tbh. then the final track is great and all but definitely too long.

digging ylt - [I]summer sun[/I] atm. very bliss/pleasant sounding album for the most part. 'tiny birds' is so nice.

Iai 12-18-2011 05:10 AM

I could never get into YLT at all :(

emily_ 12-18-2011 05:23 AM

robertsona 12-18-2011 11:40 AM
