here are things i listened to today:
Darkat Yuuyamihn - eu sou a vítima e o carrasco [depressive post-black metal]
Othismos - Sottrazione [neocrust]
Strobe Ogre - The Great Star Hall [edm/dungeon synth]
Powerplant - Grass EP [synthpunk]
Stonecirclesampler - Deep Dream Derbyshire Gloom [dub techno/ambient]
Wretched Member - Wretched Member [experimental]
Helena Hauff - Multiply Your Absurdities [acid techno]
Elektrokohle - Kalt Wie Du Bist [coldwave/post-punk]
Viejo Senil - Pankora Mutante [powerviolence]
Horornisdiphonevalley - ノアの箱舟 e.p [powerviolence]
yeah so i had a busy morning!
the first five were not my jam, tho i did not think any were bad. the dub techno tracks on Stonecirclesampler's album held my interest more than the ambient but not enough for me to say i liked it.
i enjoyed Wretched Member, it has an ominous lo-fi atmosphere, a pleasant spookiness.
Helena Hauff's Multiply Your Absurdities was okay for me too, Punks In The Gym is now sitting on my Blood Rave playlist.
Kalt Wie Du Bist had some quite fun stuff. surf influence doesn't always hit for me but i think the way Electrokohle used it makes sense.
i am picky about powerviolence and i did not dig Pankora Mutante. it does have a sense of humour tho, and imo the back half felt a lot stronger than the front half. in other powerviolence news, the EP by Horornisdiphonevalley i also wasn't big on, a shade fancier than my cavedwelling brain likes.
well. it would have been cool to end on a high note but sometimes there's more misses than hits.
