KICK NURSE - HORSE CONDUIT EP (2014)

Kick Nurse are from Brighton, UK.
They play a hypnotic, chaotic, intricate and disorienting mathy style of noise rock on this 3 song EP.

Say you're at home carving tiny sculptures out of pencil tips and erasers, and you have this on in the background, without looking, you could easily think you're hearing 10 different songs.
Yeah, one of those kind of bands.

They pull sounds from Don Caballero, Unwound, UOA, A Minor Forest, US Maple and even some Slint-y moments. You're interested now, right?

PISSED JEANS - THE BEST OF SUB POP 2009-2013: "LIVE" At The BBC (2014)

And now for some new(ish) school Sub Pop.

Not sure what's going on with that long-ass title and claiming to best of Sub Pop, instead of just saying...Pissed Jeans live at the BBC. Am I right? 
So yeah, this is 4 songs released for Record Store Day last year, and of course it sounds amazing.

You get these smash hits:
Romanticize Me
False Jesii Pt. 2

MALM - HÜLLENLOS (2013)

Malm are from Würzburg, Germany and have been around since 2000 (ish).
I’m not completely 100% sure of that fact, but that’s what info I gathered.
Feel free to share info if you know more.

So to be honest I wasn’t familiar with these dudes, which is weird since they’ve been around and kicking for so long. But goddamn I know them now!! And you should too.

Chugging, pummeling and thumping bass and drums, buzzsaw battering geetars, and raw and crushing vocals push these 10 songs through the noise rock wood chipper with a full throttle assault, and angular off kilter riffs twisting your head and neck back 'n forth like a spastic rubberband along the way. Goddamn. Goddamn I say!!!

ANASAZI - NASTY WITCH ROCK (2015)

Here's some gothy, dark style death rock from London, UKs Anasazi.
An unholy mix of dark wave, fuzzed out garage, and blown out distorted and echoey post-rock noise elements, Nasty Witch Rock is 10 hexing spells that will zombify you in seconds.

This be their first full length after a few early singles.
So take early TSOL, Damned, Halo Of Flies, Skullflower and Birthday Party and mix into a brewing, bubbling cauldron with bats breath, spider eyes, troll fat, grave dust and virgin's blood, for a beastly rock potion.

HEAD OF DAVID - WHITE ELEPHANT (1989)

Head of David's White Elephant, which is actually 2 sessions mashed together on one release.
The first 3 songs are from 1986. The last 4 songs from 1987.

In case you're unfamiliar with HOD, this was one of Justin Broadricks (Godflesh, Jesu) earliest projects. This is less on the heavy pummeling side than Godflesh, but it still has that familiar sound.

I'm sure you guys are familiar with The Men. They're kinda big(ish).... As in popular.
Not sure about physical size of the members, so I apologize if they're watching their weight.

Anyway, before they were big and famous garage rockers, they were a knock down drag out noise rock band.
I posted their first EP a while back on the blog, but this is their actual first full length. They self-released this originally with a small run of pressings. But later some smart folks over at Deranged Records realized how goddamn good this was and gave it the re-issue treatment. Good for them, good for us!

FASHION WEEK - PRÊT-À-PORTER (2014)

New(ish) cranking barn burner full length from Brooklyn's Fashion Week is a brain, face, ear cavity, nostril cavity, eyeball, nipple, knee cap and arse wrecker.
I honestly hadn't heard these fellers before, so I looked up some info. Turns out all the info was a farce, taking Nirvana's career and adding a fun twist of their own. Points for humor.

The music is anything but a fun romp through the funnies section though. This is filled with all kinds of can-opened, Unsane, JJ Paradise Players Club, Today is the Day, Cave In, Coalesce whoop-ass.

ARE WE ELECTRIC? - NOVOC (2004)

Ha! NOT a band that starts with 'P'. Although maybe I shoulda kept 'em going.

So here's something a little different. This is band submission of sorts.
Actually this is an old, now defunct band of Ralf, who is staticfraction's unofficial blog contributor.

Featuring ex-members of Bhang Dextro and Craving, Are We Electric (Stuttgart, Germany) blast out surf rock tinged noise/wave/kraut/punk rock... like a missing link between Man Or Astroman? and Jesus Lizard, with influences of early Devo and Gang Of Four.

PINNACLE - SHAKEY EP (2015)

Another 'P' band... I swear I'm not doing this on purpose...I noticed after I wrote the post.

So, Pinnacle is from San Luis Obispo, Ca.... Where the Hell?
I've never heard of this town, so I had to look it up.
They claim to be the Happiest Place in America. Maybe so, but you wouldn't know it from this band.

They are one pissed off, angry and aggressive, post-hardcore/noise rock band. Me likes.
3 song ep here, so hopefully more on the way.

Ok so if you pay close attention to the 3 bands I posted today, you may think I’m just going through the ‘P’ folder on my music hard drive. But alas, I didn’t plan it that way. Although not a bad way to think about posting stuff in the future.

Anywho, the result of the Part Chimp Peel Session is here just because I’ve been on a Peel kick lately. This is a little different for a Peel Sessions take as it was recorded live at All Tomorrows Parties in 2004. This would be their 2nd Peel Sessions…uh…session. Its 7 live blasts from these UK noise mongers, that sound fucking fantastic.

THE PAPER CHASE - YOUNG BODIES HEAL QUICKLY YOU KNOW (2000)

The Paper Chase were an experimental rock band from Dallas, Texas (1998-2010).
This was their debut album which is more guitar driven. The albums that follow, while still containing guitar elements, start introducing other instrumentation to help create their insane and jarring experimental compositions.
That's right kids, these songs are compositions. Big words I’ve learned to throw around.

I can’t really say that these guys ‘sound like’ anyone else, as they take discordant melody and jagged noise pop and mix in abrasive prog, indie grit, punk anger, delicate piano and cello melodies and explosive noise pummeling along with samples and sounds. You want spinning emotion, and uncomfortable confusion?
You got it right here bud.

POSTER CHILDREN - FLOWER POWER (1989)

Poster Children was from Champaign, Illinois, forming in 1987.
They were known for their ‘Chicago post-rock sound’ recording most of their stuff in the 90s.
This is their first album which was out in the late 80s.
Goddamn thats a long time ago. Sheesh.

So I always thought this album should’ve been on Touch and Go because, well…it sounds like it should be.
But I guess things don't always work out that way.
The important thing, is that you can have it now, regardless of label, year, clothing fads. Snag up some history.

Wouldn’t school and history lessons been way more fun if they incorporated bands and info? I probably wouldn't have skipped so much. Nah. I probably still would have.

SIX ORGANS OF ADMITTANCE - HEXADIC (2015)

Six Organs of Admittance is basically a music project of guitarist Ben Chasny, who has been making eclectic, avant-guarde and psychedelic infused rocknroll since the late 90s. He is also know for working with Comets on Fire, Current 93, Sun City Girls, as well as others.

This is their/his newest effort, Hexadic, a 9-song album that weaves in and out of your brian matter with fuzzed out and drugged out wavering sounds, ambient, droney texture, and straight, balls out noise rock. This is their like 10 billionth record, but its still sounds like they’re still pushing the soundscape envelope.

Hey you! Check it out! More explosive, jagged and angry noise rock from Seattle's Madraso.

I posted their full length a short bit ago right here.
This is their equally brain ratcheting and face pummeling 7-song ep that preceded that record.
Its a self released endeavor, and sounds fantastic.

Most definitely recommended and required. OOOOOF!!

BACON WAGON - SPLIT 7"S (2004 / 2008)

Bacon Wagon you say? Is that a cart that comes around your home and rings a bell. Then we all pile out of our homes to get some yummy bacon in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Like the ice cream man...only...with bacon!! Damn that sounds good.

OK lets get to what this is really about. Bacon Wagon is/was from Sweden and play dirty, crunchy and thick noise rock. These 2 split slabs from back in 2004 and 2008 will smack you silly. One with fellow Swedes, Instrumen. The other with Dactyl from the US, who all play similar, heavy and ear distorting noise rock. A full length by Bacon Wagon floats in the archives if you feel like going on a bacon hunt.

Umm yes I'll take a bacon snow cone, a bacon push-up pop, and a bacon crunch bar.

Blue Screen Life basically has everything Rodan released with the exception of their full length, 'Rusty'.
Man, the internet rules, doesn't it?

Some of this stuff has been re-issued on the 'Fifteen Quiet Years' release that came out a couple years back. But there's definitely some other cool treats here, including their first, Aviary cassette.

JARS - NO (2015)

So this is the new 8-song noise barrage from Russian Federation’s Jars. I was prepared to tell you how great a noise rock record this was, but after listening a more couple times, there’s a lot going on in this bundle. Every song seems to have a different energy and vibe… in a good way…weaving in and out of a variety of sounds.

Songs go from noise rock punches like an Unsane and Pissed Jeans, then get blazing hardcore fast like Grimple or Born Against. Then they slow things down adding power crunches like Nirvana, after which weaving back through aggressive Today is the Day anger, and even dirty it up, like a Drunks With Guns record.

Pretty killer stuff. Do yourseff a favor and snag this now. Get it a couple of times why not. Your ears will love you and hate you. Kinda like your significant other.

10 razor chunky blasts that will hit yer sweet spot. Take all the cool shit about Rapeman, Shellac, Fugazi, and Phleg Camp, and throw them on a missle. Then strap yourself on top and get ready to go for a fun, skin stretching ride.

Pretty good I'd say.
What you'll find here are links to their 3 EPs, the first 2 being self-outputted, released between 2012-2014.

Madraso are basically unknowns, but goddamn this record needs to be known!
This is the first and only full length from these fellers from Seattle, and was one of my favorite albums from 2008. They have a short EP before this, and a split 7" with Blackhole as well.

You like Drive Like Jehu?
How about Faucet? Yes?
Remember those awesome Fiddlehead singles? Yep.
Table was pretty amazing, you like them? Mmmhmm.

The other day, I did a big ‘ol mega-post…talkin’ up the cool Radio Is Down label. Well I purposely left Cartographer off of that list, because I wanted to give them their own post. Not taking anything away from the other great bands on that other post, I just thought these ex-Replicator dudes from Oakland, CA, deserved an individual shout out!

This album was one of my favorites from back in 2011, and it mixes all the Helmet and Shellac sounds to make a person cream his/her noise rock sweat leggings. And not sure if these guys are still kicking it around, and are planning new material or tours, but lets keep our fingers twisted, bent and crossed  that they do.

RID was only responsible for the CD version of this album, while another label did the vinyl. So find them both, and put a big goddamn smile on that ugly mug of yours. Go ahead. Trust me.

Also, you need to know they have a song about Ian Mackaye making so much money that he has a solid gold car. So there's that.

Those facts, mixed with a commotion that sounds like The Jesus Lizard, Karp, and AC/DC having a conniption fit in a garbage dumpster full of reciprocating saws, should be enough to get the job done.
