Bjerga / Iversen - Days of Thunder (2007)

GENRE..... Noise
LABEL...... At War With False Noise
MODE....... VBRkbps / Joint-Stereo
REL.DATE.. Aug-29-2008

Another single track, head-flattening jam from At War With
False Noise's drone/noise/sludge onslaught of January 2007.
This one's a live recording of a trio made up of prolific
improvisors Jan-M Iversen on electronics, Sindra Bjerga on
tapes and """"amplified objects"""", and Lars Myrvoll on
guitar, recorded in Oslo, Norway in June of 2006. Emerging
amongst a pile of percussive clatter and pensive streaks of
feedback, the group quickly flip the switch as Myrvoll's
guitar emerges at top volume, emitting a sickeningly sludgy
dronetone that seesaws over Iversen and Bjerga's swooping
electronic howls and heavy rumbling static. Those first
five minutes are a harrowing crawl through crushing freeform
ooze, and the rest of the 36 minute performance moves through
similiar ravines of subtle circuit squiggle, guitar strings
being mangled into spidery screeching noise, and restrained
feedback, surging up every couple of minutes into a squall
of brutal feedback and formless sludgenoise. Pretty killer,
a meeting of the minds between abstract European free-improv
and tarpit-Metal amplifier ambience. And of course it comes
in another piece of total handmade eye candy from the At War
crew, the disc contained in a handmade paper wallet with a
hand-numbered insert on watercolour paper with a sketch
from artist Alec Cheer. Limited edition of 100.
