Mangraft
Few current noise artists have discovered the sonic qualities of scrap metal to the extent that Hal Hutchinson had made with his ‘’Factory of Metal Sound’’ aesthetic. Hutchinson employs a unique approach to collecting and layering his recordings of sheet metal, pipes, metal barrels, chains, and other metallic objects being shattered and pulled and crushed. A cacophony of metal scraping clatter is transformed in…
Nacht Musik

(Cosmic Coincidence Control Center) which's concept was improvisational mass-noise with very loud sound.

Orgies Of Crime

Mouths that Reap the Harvest
Recorded in 2013 shortly after the release of "Edenfall", this first vinyl LP from the American death industrial project explores the destructive realities of industrialized agriculture, Heathen atavism and humanity's continuing exemptionalist arrogance and loss of a spiritual connection to nature.

Closed Exit
Closed Exit is published by Nail Releases in 1997 on double cassette limited to 80 numbered copies. The four tracks on the tape are based on sick mono-tone synth drones with aberration voice. The smell of death is soaked in every sound produced by the brilliant and twisted mind of Marco Corbelli. Anxiety, alienation and hypochondria turn into a deep paranoia in pain. Without hesitation, the bodies are emptied, leaving the field to an electronics purulence of rare power disconcerting. This…
Murderfuck
Since 1982, the Mauthausen Orchestra, mastermined by Pierpaolo Zoppo, have developed their brutal tendencies, reaching, by the last productions, the highest standards of sonic power. With "Necrofellatio" begins the flirtation with the "Aquilifer Sodality"; sexual impetus, and the M.O. support the sonorous stimulation offered by The Sodality with their elating power electronics mastery. Their complete devotion to extreme sexual pleasures makes their ultra violent attacks the ultimate enjoyments. …
Future Cheers
"I destroy out of joy, not despair. I don’t destroy out of anger. I destroy out of curiosity. I tear things apart to see what makes them tick. I want to take time apart to see what makes it tick-tock. I enjoy destroying everything because I enjoy leaving nothing un-destroyed. My noise acts as a kind of audio account or authentic evidence of this ceaseless, perpetual bittersweet happiness we call entropy." - GX. The Haters are a noise and conceptual art troupe from the United States. Founded in 1…
Lowest Music n. 2
Merzbow stands as the most important artist in noise music. The moniker of Japanese Masami Akita was born in Tokyo in 1979. Inspired by Dadaism and Surrealism, Akita took the name for his project from German artist Kurt Schwitters' pre-war architectural assemblage "The Cathedral of Erotic Misery" or “Merzbau”. Just as Schwitters attacked the entrenched artistic traditions of his time with his revolutionary avant-garde collages, so too would Akita challenge the contemporary concept of what is cal…
Likainen Ehtoollinen
Bizarre Uproar is one of the colossal phenomenon in Finnish harsh noise scene. Throughout the years, this artist has gradually taken the Bizarre Uproar concept to more and more extreme level.

New extremes in sonic bizarre domination!…
Strange Feeling, Shit Coming
Taint is known to be one of the most authoritative and pervert act in the power electronics scene. A kind of juiced up, Taint squared a brutal stew of screaming high-end feedback, crushing distorted scrape and corrosive furious vocals that are overlaid with sheets of white noise. Strange Feeling, Shit Coming, that was released on legendary Japanese tape label G.R.O.S.S. in 1993, showed Taint at his best. Fucking brutal!The record has been pressed on 140 gr black vinyl with black label and black …
