    Liked for the Carter Burwell!   Old favorite for many years. 

     

    I personally like when country went into pop territory in the 60s.   Obviously Johnny Cash, early Willie Nelson, Patsy Cline, etc.   I also like Hank Williams Sr. and the like, but I do think that Lee Hazlewood could use some more credit in the context of country music.   He wrote for Sanford Clark among many others.   I am really not a fan of country after 1970 or so, but I'd still add a bit of Waylon Jennings.  

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I'll throw some more obvious in here too... 

    And some dark (humor?)

    I am into their music in a big way too. Actually posting this while wearing my Cyclobe shirt ? They had a new album in the works for a few years now, wonder if it will ever materialise.

    also, stupid question, but where to buy ? I found repress of worship the glitch and black light district but what about LSD ?

    If you are looking to buy things in print, I'd recommend "Backwards" and "the Ape of Naples" if they are still in print.  Also "Time Machines" is an excellent drone album.  "Stolen And Contaminated" is a good comp of out-takes and things, but also worth owning in my opinion.

    musick to play in the dark vol.1 is a masterpiece !

    I like Vol. 2 a tad bit more, but they're both masterpieces.  

     

    My favorites are Ape of Naples, Scatology, Horse Rotorvator, Musick to Play In The Dark 1 & 2, and Love's Secret Domain.

    I've been enjoying Forgotten Pathways recently.  

    I've been casually trying to find more of this ilk since I heard Danzig's "Black Arias" in the 90s....  

    I particularly like just homemade soundtrack music type of vibes, of the dark variety.  I don't really care for D&D vibes, though.   It's tough to sift through.

    One-Eyed Zatoichi is a preferred nomenclature from the spearhead of a noise project called Thirteen Hurts, which also has a leg of it separately titled "13Hz" for his modular work, as I understand it.  I think it's important to note, because I remember being told that there are no other sources beyond pedals for Thirteen Hurts, but to some, it does sound like a synthesizer is in there somewhere.   I met OEZ in Denver several times and again in St. Petersburg, Florida, in which case he drove 2,000 miles to play for 15 minutes at a noise fest.  At that time, he lived in some sort of solar-powered dome within the guts of Colorado foothills, six hours from any sort of civilization.   I've seen noise artists with too many pedals, and OEZ has more than those dudes, but he has a bizarre precision and intent with his performances.  They are cinematic and rowdy in nature.  Of course, he has a release on NO PART OF IT, but his previous two releases are also pretty starkly placed within the realm of what I'd want from a pedal noise/"heavy electronics" artist.  I also find his work to be unique in that I am taken to a specific abstract place when listening to it-- it has substance (which I regularly find off-putting in harsh noise releases) that suggests an intention and would be fitting for some sort of UFO hunter or a person digging around in tunnels looking for reptilians.  What I mean here, is not necessarily do I think OEZ is into that kind of thing, but I find his sounds to be inherently visual/exploratory in a way that I don't come across much.   It is entirely coincidental that this is the 13th interview in the series, by the way. 

    This interview series is will be published on the 13th of every month, all from people who answered the same questions at the same time, scheduled in February/March of 2019, and will go on for several years.

    R-11840993-1523318405-3272.jpeg.jpgHawthonn ‎– Red Goddess (Of This Men Shall Know Nothing)

    Very unique occult-driven husband/wife duo: folk music with plenty of effects, and maybe some synths, female vocals, very experimental and stands out considerably.  apparently this band was used as a soundtrack in the Netflix series "The New Pope".  

    There are some side projects that are more neofolk, but with exceptional melodies, not the same DIJ ripoff stuff.  Recently bought a lathe cut of theirs with no regrets, and I am not a big neofolk fan at all.

    I always wonder how ppl tell when one noiz artist is ‘better’ than the rest and i came to the conclusion that same as in many other genres (and other areas of life) looks play one of the major roles in popularity of artists, like being a woman, having a nice ass and tits, being an etnic or race minority member, radiating extreme narcisism and well being... same here, nobody cant beat Merzbow’s pritty hear; itz very long and nicely conditioned. Beautiful! No wonder ppl love his music!

    Merzbow is credited with bringing forth "harsh noise" as a genre (or subgenre) of noise music. 
    Even before that, some of his tape work/sound collage work is excellent, and exceeded the quality of its peers for years to come.  Of course, some of it was crap too, but that's noise, and "being in the moment" etc.   I really enjoy this one from the 80s, for example. 

     

    Noise music has existed since the 1910s, but harsh noise, and especially Japanese harsh noise really came into play in the early 90s, as a "movement" or what-have-you.  Generally speaking though, I'd agree with you on some level.  Merzbow still may not be remembered at all if he were overweight, for example.  I find this frustrating in every genre.  Janis Joplin, Aretha Franklin, etc.  These folks wouldn't make it in our time, regardless of their voices or talents.  I'll keep my mouth shut about specific noise artists, but noise music has been getting too cute for me for a number of years.  Ugly people make good noise too!

    This is really happening.  People are getting their accounts deleted and the same is happening for paypal and discogs.  Simply having words like "Genocide" within track titles is enough to get a release banned.   I'm not sure about what is simply tagged "noise", but a number of noise artists are unsure of why they were banned, maybe because of imagery.  Sounds like legal action waiting to happen, if someone gets off their ass long enough to get a class action suit going.
