Cutting Pink With Knives. (soundtrack, electronic, ambient, drum, rock)

Sound Devastation · 07-02-2006, 05:37 PM

didnt know quite where to put this.. as they blend electronic blast-beats with screamo, but here seems like the best bet.

they started out as 'scene' as their name, with their Ep 'Alef! Alef! Alef!' with songs rarely reaching a minute, most an unlistenable and unstructured combination of electro-noise and screams, but they have developed quite a bit since then.

the album 'oh Wow!' is in the same style as the previous release but more spaced out, sections of craziness separated and structured with ambient electronic interludes and the drum machine is used at less than 30bps

plus it ends in a 10 minute epic (!!) wondefully titled 'merry ****ing christmas you splineless ****'

although a fun band they dont have the sheer cheese of 'casio-grind' bands like An Albatross but more of an interesting, layered sound.

check 'em out!

“The sound of grindcore and noise fighting over a girl, with some terrible synth-pop band soundtracking the whole thing. like in a really bad brat pack film, as if the cast of the Breakfast Club was actually the members of Siege and Scum-era Napalm Death." Edi Frankel

I like the music, but the screaming just doesn't sound right to me.

A friend of mine does a band sort of like this except it's a lot more dancier. I hope this band doesn't do what my friends band does and just make all their beats on Reason and just sing. Cos it's wierd.

^That''s lame! Though it's what a friend and I gave to do with drum beats, because we only play guitar/bass. Well, that sounds like we have already done it, but, err, we're going to. Someday.
