Got this bad boy from Volcanic Tongue. It's a reissue of a cassette tape from 1987. Three tracks: first one is Merzbow, second is Haters, third is a showdown between the two. This is the recording that Thurston mentions in the poem liner notes to his Sensitive/Lethal disk. And I'm wont to agree with Thurston on this one, it is indeed 'thee quintessential.'
The Haters track in particular is sublime. Really gorgeous yet destructive noise. I think it's one of the most beautifully crafted slabs of noise/drone I ever heard. Monolithic enough to nod out to yet plenty of minimal subtleties to keep part of yr consciousness engaged. It also furthers my theory that GX-Jupiter Larson is a genius. So yeh, I cannae recommend this one enough. Anyone else into this? |

Not heard it, but it sounds awesome. I'm more into The Haters than Merzbow overall, but the collaboration must be pretty amazing too.

Haters DVD, huh? Sounds intriguing. GX Jupitter-Larson has some awesome artsy noise vids on youtube as well as links to all sorts of surrealist/dada shit in his favorites section. http://uk.youtube.com/user/noisenomics Hours of fun.

From that selfsame page:
CINEMA NOISE is a (All Region / NTSC) DVD that features ten of my video works (1983-2006) that filter a lexicon of recurring themes through a spectrum of movie motifs and narrative strategies. You'll see skiers stop to build an empty hole in the snow, nomadic bikers debating the polywave, a spy being led from one mysterious note to another, vampires working on their garlic farm, and a visitation that gives a professor the inspiration to invent a gadget that transforms lives. What you'll hear is pure noise, most of which is derived from amplified erosion. Paypal me $15 for your copy: gx at jupitter-larsen dot com Gotta get me hands on one o' they pappies |
