Jet$et And Bloedbad 1981-1984

Holland's Jet$et was female fronted punky thrash that often deviated into tracks of total no-wave. They weren't untalented in each genre...but they weren't talented either. Jos/Larm was supposed to release their discography LP a few years ago, but...here we are...sitting...juuust sitting. Their half of the download is composed of various solo and split demos with not totally crude production.

Sharing one of those splits were domestic peers Bloedbad (Bloodbath), who were absolute chaos-thrash in a parallel vein to Larm. Speedy, bouncy, simple as fuck but tight, somehow nicely recorded, heavy...dude, I'd love to see Jos finance a discography for THEM!!! (I took care of that in the download too 😇 !)


Syphilitic Vaginas - 9" (wavs) 2007 & 12" 2008

The world's most seriously performed parody project. R.U.G.I.S.M worship, Venomous Frost worship, Magnus' one man band had and (outside of Bastard Priest) still has the biggest cock-ring in the metalpunk orgy pit. Production matches the feel of Yugoslavian death-thrash demos from the mid-80s (you know that is the blackest mark of trve kvlt sovnds). Clay sent me the wavs around the time of the 9"s release, the 12" is in mp3. Possessed to FUCK nigga!

In Slaughter Natives - 1988 Demo

Pounding martial-death, released at the dawn of the experimental scene's 2nd golden age (by one of modern martial's founders). It's emo as fuck and unapologetically ebm-gothy...but it also comes from the more nazi end of that scene that listens to earliest Laibach over current Laibach (repetition and experimentation are preferred to poppin' a pussy on the dance floor). More nazi = more fun. The project quickly evolved into a symphonic style that borders on a religious experience...but at light speed out the dog-track gate, this "demo" was already an impressive debut!


Otaku Party - Demos 2008 / 2009

I like this more than I should, so (re) up it goes. Spoken-vocal French noisecore that oddly reminds me of Man Is The Bastard's early freak outs (with the rarest segue into VERY short blastbeats). The arrangements and playing ability are several notches above shit-fi, and because of how those arrangements "are", I'm thinking the band was more influenced by global thrash over a strict regiment of Kyushucore (though there's nerdery afoot in their name). The result is engaging, surprisingly noteworthy, and still completely refreshing several short years on.  They never got any vinyl, what the hell?

Obihiro Street Punks Tape 1987 (320)

Authentically fun "back in the day" wizard-hat compilation tape of Japan's more obscure noisecore and "trash punk". The demo / live / rehearsal triumvirate is raped to full exploitation, though I can honestly say most recordings remain bright and legible. Unlike MCR's thousands of comps, each band retains it's own uniqueness and memorability, with my faves falling to Traicy Rose's chaotic thrash and Genocide's garage rock. Oh yeah, the complete bands are Jisatsu, Stali-nism (their most complete document thus far), Human Gas, Traicy Rose, and Genocide. For those who have psychotic episodes on the O.G.ness of ones and zeros, this rip was shit out directly from God's gaping Goatse asshole.

Obliteration - "This Is Tomorrow" 7" Master 2009

Exceptionally produced, pit-exploding "Japanese" hardcore from Bastan (their 2nd / best EP). Arrangements are kept to a semi-minimum while not being minimalist, solos scream, guitar tones are fucking demolishing (no braindrill, the "Japcore" is traditional), and the extremely hoarse vocals utilize reverb so tight they nearly feel double-tracked. This is an MP3 conversion of the master for the EP, which was "secretly" uploaded as is by the band itself. The only negative to this entire review? Members are gemini as fuck.



Chaos Channel - Interview 2007 (?)

Before Damaging Noise was a blog, it was a micro-zine/newsletter. Right when Chaos Channel got going again (which took fucking forever, even when first announced), their singer Chatter / No. 6 was temporarily more social with the fanboys online. I managed to wrangle this admittedly half-ass (on Chatter's end) interview. Language barriers aside, he could have done a LOT better (a fact depressingly accentuated by Jun Kato telling me "he doesn't even make sense in Japanese"). So yeah, I released it as a front/back one-sheet to whoever I was trading with, and I believe it made it in as a supplement to another zine or two. This is nearly 10 years old, but have at it (or not). Clicky-clicky = biggy-biggy...

  

Disastrous Murmur - Rehearsal '88, Live '89, 2nd Demo '91

Decent to "good" sounding rehearsal, live soundboard, and the 2nd demo from Austria's cultest death-grind legends. The band has always displayed to me a dichotic medley of incredibly simple (and simply incredible) ugly death-grind that is then augmented with surprisingly virtuoso soloing. I'm not that hot on the 2nd demo, since it wanders into Roadrunner-tech territory, but overall this is one of the very few remaining O.G. bands that embodies "timewarp" in continued style and mindset.
