Various Artists Labyrinths and Jokes

Hanson
 
 







Labyrinths and Jokes was originally released on LP in 1998 in a small edition of only 500 copies. Six tracks of diverse and creative noise from six completely bizarre bands. This LP was the first statement from an utterly brilliant and fucked up group of musicians and friends who have since spawned such musical monstrosities as Andrew W.K., Wolf Eyes and Nautical Almanac. Six tracks of diverse and creative noise from six totally fucked up bands:-

Nautical Almanac’s Anti-System - Started in 1994 as a party killing trash-noise rock band, the Nautical Almanac has since developed into a two-piece of incredibly talented machine builders. They continue to this day to record and perform some of best and most difficult electronic music there is.

Isis and Werewolves - These synth dabblers loved the sound of Italian slasher flicks and tried to recreate them. Problem was, they never practiced and smoked way too much weed. This is punk prog at its sloppiest and goofiest. The drummer and guitarist were such lazy burnout's that the keyboardist left town to create a heavy metal monster called Andrew W.K. The drummer and tape manipulator Aaron Dilloway would go on to form the band Wolf Eyes, while the guitarist Steve Kenney moved to New Orleans to play in the hard rock outfit Metal Wolf.

Ron Of Japan - This duo of 15 year-old female misfits have since gone into retirement. But what they innocently recorded in their bedroom in 1995 ended up being some heavily influential music. These two teenage girls pretty much single handedly created the crude electronic aesthetic that the Michigan underground has since become known for.

Andrew Wilkes-Krier - Before he was known as Andrew W.K., Andrew was going under his full name and playing a wide variety of insane noise. The track here is a dark cloud of droning violins and ghost like screeches and moans.

The Mini-Systems - The most unhealthy band of all time. The Mini-Systems was Nate Young’s project prior to his forming of Wolf Eyes. His partner was one Anthony Miller, a musical genius who now goes by the name of Maximum Cloud. At one time they were the kings of circut-bent junk noise, though drugs and love would eventually get in the way, leaving the two no choice but to disband.

The Beast People - The ugliest, sickest growlers ever! Though he won’t admit it to your face, The Beast People was a performance art group led by Aaron Dilloway of Wolf Eyes. Occasional contributors to the project included James ‘Twig’ Harper of Nautical Almanac, Andrew W.K., Detroit noise DJ Andy Roach and Nate Young. Completely psychedelic cave noise. Cut-up growls and screams, recorded completely in the red. As crude as it gets!



This is what I'm jamming now and it's totally ill, son. any other heads into this?
think i'm gonna pick up the beast people one-sided 10" next

Nautical Almanac has always impressed me. Aaron's solo stuff is usually good so the Beast People sounds interesting. Isis and Werewolf woot! Is this still in print?
