K2 - "Molecular Terrorism" CD/CDR 1996

One of my fave Power Electronic / Junk-Collage releases from Japan. Shit gets LOUD here, but instead of a blast-furnace of non-stop screaming feedback, there's noticeably sourced sounds of clanked-on metal pieces, metal dragged on concrete floors, rattling, banging, rending, with the "natural" noise provided from such behavior further filtered through a surprisingly complex array of pedals and 4-track recorders (I saw him live in the 90s, and can anecdotally back up his methods). Things are very "cut up" here, with jumps between noises appearing every 30 seconds or so (or less...all cuts are CLEAN). K2 was noted for recording in abandoned and utterly stripped parking structures, taking advantage of natural ambiance and reverb...though I can't lie, everything else about this release will only appeal to those who stay at coffee houses till midnight pretending they're lost philosophers or poser nihilists. Great release...if you're psycho for this stuff.
