Mind-slaughtering Tesco compilation themed around North Korean dystopianism. The partakers are of the highest caliber, featuring Turbund Sturmwerk, Operation Cleansweep, Con-Dom, Genocide Organ, Militia, Ex.Order, Grey Wolves, and Anenzephalia...B-U-T...I have to admit, certain tracks have a rushed or outtake-y vibe. Nothing's totally texted in (the band art sections are though...pixel city), just given the comp's theme I'm not hearing anything profoundly different compared to each group's usual output. Or maybe I'm just being a petty bitch, because taken as a whole this CD is
still a shamelessly classic power electronics orgy!
Skeletal cold amateur power electronics and satanic metalpunk from the deceased sovie-homie Paul. Originally "releases" on my upload label via Damaging Noise, here they are again (with extras) in memory of Paul and his earliest noise sacraments. Sacred Youth I once lazily compared to Genocide Organ, though Paul's sounds were thinner and more outright noise (mostly the effect was reminiscent because of Paul's spoken-contempt over the tracks). Some elite nerds took umbrage with the comparison and I continue to hope that THEY commit suicide. Helltripper is good, very good, though obviously lo-fi as hell and somewhat interchangeable with most bands in that scene. Mostly, I wanted to revisit Paul's more obscure visions and to share them with the world once again.
