The Sound Of Being Alive
Whitehouse remind us what it’s all about with a remastered collection of classics spanning 1998 - 2007: “Look up, look all around you, dump the fucking rubbish, and rise up. Listen to the sound of being alive...” Assuming that you’ve never heard of them, Whitehouse are thee arch, original power noise unit formed around William Bennett (vocals, electronics, percussion) and Philip Best (vocals, electronics) who met in London around 1982, and the pair would go on to establish one of the most notor…
Asceticists 2006
The Aphex and Russell Haswell approved Noise Artists Whitehouse are back with a very strong album in every way. If you aren't aware of them yet, they have been recording and performing on the edge of music in every way. The Pan African colours adorn the cover with a black glossy booklet featuring the lyrics in full.These are strong lyrics but equally the production is very very strong overall this is their most varied album yet and artistically possibly their best. The lyrics are absolutely stom…
Extreme Music From Russia
Probably one of the most anticipated releases, well by me anyway, this year is the continuation of the Extreme Music series from the Susan Lawly record label. What started with the exemplary assessment of the noise scene in Japan, moved onto the uncharted waters of Africa before hitting the menopausal output of Women has at last gone into Russia for a trawl through the hidden delights of that country. As any true follower of music will tell you there has been a flood of music from this area that…
Bird Seed
Shockingly powerful new studio album with 6 brilliant new tracks employing all types of new music technology, including the big hit "Wriggle like a fucking eel"! Produced in part by Steve Albini.
Mummy and Daddy
A couple of years ago I was sitting backstage at a gig sipping red wine with Whitehouse’s William Bennet and it dawned on me that THIS was extreme. Extreme wasn’t the guys showing off how ‘crazy’ they are by jumping from high mountains or wearing a Cradle of Filth tee-shirt (don’t pretend you don’t know which ones I’m talking about), it was Whitehouse, who weren’t afraid to take their pure unfettered aggression out on stage (and trust me they did) and then relax with wine and chatter in the afte…
Great White Death (Special Edition)
Great White Death, the last Whitehouse effort for Come Organisation, differs greatly from some of their earlier albums. The instrumental parts of the songs are not played on such extreme levels as before; however, the vocals of William Bennett are unusually dynamic and intense. Songs such as "We've Got the Power," "I'm Coming up Your Ass," and "You Don't Have to Say Please," for example, have a low bass drone in the background, while Bennett stretches his voice from quiet whispering to high-pitc…

Birthdeath Experience

Includes the warning: "Extreme electronic music: please acquire with due caution." "The place it all began: the seminal first album by Whitehouse. Even to this day, it is a remarkable piece of work created entirely with tone generators and EDP Wasps, and lyrically full of what would be their uncompromising trademark irony. It would prove instrumental …
