A tiny bit quiet around here. Should I do a bump? Let's see, is this how you do it? Bump!
Welcome to part three.
Album: Remblandt Assemblage
Artist: Merzbow
Genre: Noise
Suggested by: grindy
Familiarity: I did the first two. Now it's time for the third.
1. Remblandt Assemblage - Hey, look! We have tape loops! Some pretty freaky and textured stuff, and I can definitely get behind it. I just hope it's still intriguing by the end. Seems like it's speeding up. Maybe it's just me, but I think it is. Almost feels like a dance track with the beat in the background. Lots of cool stuff, but feels a bit like background music. It's actually great for casual listening, but not for intense focus. Alright, cool.
2. Voice of Scwitters - This is freaky. Definitely not for casual listening. Still pretty cool though. Made me laugh.
3. Theme of Dadaist - Got some guitar this time. Totally fits with the title. Not boring at all. Which is surprising for a nine-minute long experimental song. Lots of things happening by the end. I like it.
4. Hans Arp - Guitar like nuts. Still good. I want more like this.
5. Tape Dada - Scary. Got some radio feeding in too. Lots of tape loops and guitar squealing. How does he even make some of these noises. Sounds a bit like a motor. Backwards tapes and psycho drums as well. This is my favorite track so far.
6. Music Concret - My only response is this:
Nevermind, I have more. I like the random scraping/banging noises. It's good.
7. Prepared Guitar Solo 1 - It's good, but it's also more like background music. I'm into it. It's just, alright.
8. Prepared Guitar Solo 2 - And another one. Basically like the last one. Just a lot of random guitar plucking. It's pretty boring.
This was looking very promising, but then the random guitar came on, and I was like, "Whelp, that's that." Put it on in the background, you'll probably have a good time. Try and pay attention, and the whole thing just falls apart.
OVERALL RATING: 5/10
