[Album] Gamingforce Music Exposure Club™ Discussion

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The more recent Boredoms albums are pretty serene, I find. Certainly not abrasive at all.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Indeed, that Earth album is awesome. Very awesome.

(also, anyone got any Melvins stuff they'd be willing to upload? my tapes are gettin' ooooooooooooold)

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I'm mostly looking for their earlier stuff, although any of their material would be awesome.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Thanks a bunch for all the Melvins.

<3

How ya doing, buddy?

I'm thinking of putting up some more Throbbing Gristle/crazy-ish music to somewhat continue in the vein of knkwzrd's latest post, although I'm pretty sure nothing I have can compare to the sound of that crazy, crazy woman...

FELIPE NO

Noise rock really has stronger roots in free jazz than in stuff like this.

Yeah, I think I agree with knkwzrd on this one.

I find that a lot of noise rock relies heavily on playing knowledge as well as in-depth knowledge of guitar effects (Agata of Melt-Banana comes to mind) instead of random (simulations of) ineptitude. Of course, there are certain noise rock bands that are writing pop songs from another, very noisy dimension (deerhoof~) but for most bands, that just isn't on the agenda.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I'm gonna have to get into more Noise-anything to really understand the genre(s) better.

My apologies, knk and Schad - as knowledgeable as I'd like to think I am about music, you two regularly put me to shame.

knk speaks the truth. In the end, it's still good listening.

I'm thinking of uploading both of Black Eyes' albums sometime soon. No wave/free jazz influenced noise-rock with two drummers. Awesome.

YES. Bohren & Der Club of Gore is AWESOME.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

*rushes off to download peter brotzmann*

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The couple of Evens albums knk posted are awesome.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I recently got around to downloading those "London Is the Place for Me" compilations knk posted, and damn, that's some good shit alright.

Most amazing jew boots

Shameless self-promotion in the MEC ahoy~

I was speaking idiomatically.

:jealous:

Gonna upload some more MxBx soon probably. As well as some of my latest purchases.

Perhaps noise = Merzbow while ambient noise = uh.. Anenzephalia?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I just posted something new in the MEC, after a long time since my last contribution.

Probably not for those who have some sort of aversion towards emo-y acoustic music, but I think it's definitely worth a download. I don't regret spending money on the CD, that's for sure.

FELIPE NO
