Sheer Hellish Miasma and Frozen by Blizzard Winds were pretty much exceptions - everything else he's done that I've heard is pretty meh, IMO and that.

What Glice said. Sheer Hellish Miasma was wonderful, though the rest I've heard was pretty pointless boring drone (note: i am a fan of drone)

Supersilent - 8 ... this band is interesting, and sometimes quite good. Having said that, 8 is not one of my favs.

Kevin Drumm - Land Of Lurches ... never heard, but I love Sheer Hellish Miasma.

Nurse With Wound - Alice The Goon ... one of the better NWW releases. A Sucked Orange will always be my fav.

John Cage - Empty Words With Music For Piano / One7 ... meh. More interesting conceptually than fun to listen to.

NNCK - Clomein ... Good. GReat, in fact, if you're in the mood.

Acid Mothers - Minstrel In The Galaxy ... Once you have 5 or 6 of their albums, you pretty much don't need anymore, except..

Acid Mothers - We Are Acid Mothers Afrirampo ... this one is awesome, and a bit different, and one of their best.

The collab he did Daniel Menche "Gauntlet" is great, and I liked his collab with Prurient too "All Are Guests In The House of The Lord"

Thanks for the informative comments everyone. This was my very first NNCK, Supersilent, KD and NWW experience.

I have to say that I fucking adore the KD and I can't wait to get more of him. I really like NNCK and Supersilent. NWW I'm not so sure about yet - he/they obviously have a talent for layering/arranging. I somewhat concur with the comment regarding Acid Mothers - "you only need 5-6" - I'd say 20, haha....but lately there have been a few "inessential" purchases. That particular Cage one really is the height of "concept over delivery" hahaha.....I love me a ton of Cage, but this one is, er, special.

Hahaha, well, in all honesty, there was "other stuff" going on in life then. But still, that thread is a huge disappointment for me. Am I really the only SNYG who thinks it is fucking monumental? AOY? (I should have posted this there, sorry.)

[atsonicpark]

Skuj, that's funny about NWW, I often have many.. erm... discussions about him/them/whatever, saying the same thing. A lot of the stuff he does is quite interesting conceptually, and I can certainly appreciate it -- honestly, it's hard to criticize properly, since it's not really setting out to do anything that can be compared to any other type of music or whatever. Still, a lot of his stuff is just one gigantic pot of seemingly random stereophonic studio twinkering pidge-podge, which has its place and is fascinating in small doses, but the NWW camp hasn't exactly shown quality control, and it's become more innessential with each release. Still, any band with that many releases is going to have a few stinkers... I think the only band who I can honestly say I love all of their 100 ep's/singles/lp's/whatever is probably The Residents... NWW has, to my ears, 15-20 truly great, amazing albums... but I've listened to, you know, way more than that... I have a feeling it'll be one of those things I put on in my later years and appreciate more..

I like it a lot but it's not something I'd say is monumental. But alas it's just a messageboard, if I made everyone on this board listen to some of my favourites then they'd probably throw some disheartening mean comment towards the art that I love so much, but you know it's all in the name of messageboard fun.

Other times I find it to have moments of brilliance. The vinyl version only has one side of music. Side B is an etching : ) 'Alice' was released between: 'Rock & Roll Station,' 'Yagga Blues / Funeral Music For Perez Prado,' and 'Who Can I Turn To Stereo' which is one of my favorite stretches of Wound releases. I do believe Savage Clone once said on here that 'Alice' was his favorite Wound release.

I think you know this, but the CD re-release version is 3 tracks. Track 1 shocked me, based on all I had read about NWW.....some kinda funky jazz vibe at first, hahaha....but then a lot more happens, and the vocals at the end are priceless. Track 2 seems unmemorable after the few listens I've had so far. Track 3 (Alice The Goon itself?) is much more interesting though.

The Drumm CD just fuckin blows me away. I love how he sculptures his Noise. And he does volume manipulations, which blew me away. It made me realize, suddenly, that you CAN fuck with volume levels on a piece, and perhaps instruct the listener not to adjust the volume once the CD is playing. This was a big shock to me really.....who fucks with VOLUME as an aspect of the recording? Track 2 of said album reminds me of Merzbow circa 1985.

The NNCK set is wildly varying - contemplative pieces vs full on noise. It's such a huge motherfucker of a record - 75mins - extremely generous. I must have more NNCK in my life.
