ENDO, KAZUMOTO & KAZUMA KUBOTA - Gyoen Bedieningshendel
-¢‚Ǩ-ìGyoen Bedieningshendel-¢‚Ǩ¬ù (which translates miserably to something about a joystick) weaves the efforts-¢‚Ǩ¬¶ Kazumoto Endo (formerly Killer Bug) with those of a relative newcomer, Kazuma Kubota. Their particular odour of noise is segregated into brief little pockets of spastic noise, each punctuated by a momentary spell of silence. In a world of hour-long harsh noise walls, folks like Endo and Kubota (and the globule of sound artists with similar philosophies, incl. Cock E.S.P. & my dear faves The Gerogerigegege) provide necessary counterpoint. After all, an hour-long harsh noise wall exponentially loses its effect after minute number two, but when each snippet is ten seconds in length, there is no opportunity to acclimate. Instead, each harsh spike seems to explode out of the negative space with a desperate eagerness to disrupt the peace, as if to say, -¢‚Ǩ-ìFuck you, fuck your fat face, and fuck your stupid herbal tea. This heres Endo and Kubota territory.-¢‚Ǩ¬ù Needless to say, the record is sublime.-¢‚Ǩ¬ù - Dead Mind.
