The one and only Merzbow I have heard comprehensively is "Offering", and it was very cool. Two twenty-minute tracks, from this end of the millenium, so very grounded in beats and a strong sense of rhythm. The second track is especially cool, with all the squeals and noise showers riding on a massive kill-ass beat.
But it's limited, though according to Akita's website, still in stock and it's distro seems to originate from Russia (though I got mine in a specialty music store in South Africa).
