Witnessing this band in full flow has a profound impact and is the key to their success. With the release of 'Mirrored' in 2007 and the infectious and otherworldly 'Atlas' single their status went from cult to crossover.

Kid606

606-thumb.jpgKILL SOUND BEFORE SOUND KILLS YOU
(violent sounds from violent fans, enemies, journalists, publicists, peers, and the kid) I'm getting tired of these "complex" artists. Complex is OK if the sounds have some musical quality. This guy has no talent -- unless the ability to string together bleeps and machinery hum is considered to be quality "music". You have to have a sense of humour to appreciate it, but I just love it. It's the sound of one man just being a right noisy bastard and making a bleedin' racket, in a creative way. This inaccessible stuff is what gives electronic music a bad name. Whatever happened to driving bass lines, rocking drum machines, and euphoric melodies?

Wolf Eyes

wolf eyes1 copy.jpgWolf Eyes are at the forefront of a quickly expanding American noise scene. The trio fronted by Nate Young & John Olson and now Mike Connelly (Hair Police), are the epitome of the self-sufficient musical entity. They have their own labels (American Tapes and Hanson Records respectively) that have been releasing cassettes, CDRs, 7"s, LPs and just about every other format. And they've since released albums on Bulb (Dread, 2001) and Troubleman Unlimited (Dead Hills, 2002). The music that Wolf Eyes creates is truly intense; Sonic touchstones include Throbbing Gristle, early Cabaret Voltaire, Black Flag, Whitehouse, Pre-Asheton Destroy All Monsters, Negative Approach, Swans and early Sonic Youth. The advocacy of the latter has led to many opening slots and a spot on the entire 2004 Lollapalooza tour.

The sheer force this young artist (she is only eighteen) injects into her compositions almost beggars belief, her songs consuming every last drop of her with no regard for grace or beauty. Then again, the 14 deeply melancholic compositions of piano, crackling electronica and inimitable vocals which oscillate between a whisper and a scream, are so drenched in beauty and gracefulness, one could crumble on hearing them.
