v/a "untitled" 3CD (co-curated and released
with Epicene
Sound Systems and Underadar.)
"It's the most user-friendly collection to be issued
in the name of 'noise' that I have ever come across... Another
thing I like about it is that, although the sequencing is exemplary
and and makes for an entertaining sequence, there's no attempt
to 'theme' or 'structure' the work or otherwise confine it by
narrow categorisations (not even the box's title); you just play
it start to finish, comparatively free from preconceived ideas,
and wallow in the lardy delights unearthed by your intelligent
lugs." –-Sound Projector
"A totally mind blowing collection of artists,
representing the state of 'noise' today. 55 bands, 3 cds, totally
elaborate over the top packaging... So utterly gorgeous. And it's
incredibly well sequenced too, the tracks are matched and segue
into each other as if it were an album proper, not a compilation.
Our faith in noise may have been restored! Essential listening
for lovers of modern music, noise and otherwise, and recommended
especially for even the most noise-phobic among you."
–-Aquarius Records
"This is one hell of treasure box" –-Vital
Weekly
"Unlike most various-artist compilations, there's
a distinct shortage of filler here -- most, if not all, of the
material here is pure prime meat, whole-grain noise goodness.
There's plenty of variety and unexpected surprises on each disc,
and the quality level is phenomenal, with some of the best and
most unusual tracks coming at times from the most obscure artists.
It's an astounding release on every level, and one of the best
various-artists compilations you'll ever hope to hear."
