BEAULIEAU, EMIL  Dedicated To Charlie Ward  CD   (RRRecords)   9.98


Another one of Emil Beaulieau's "remix" albums, where the greatest living American noise artist takes his formidible four-armed turntable the Minutoli and wreaks havoc on assorted records. All of his remix discs are crazy, hyperactive blasts of noise/rock cut-up, brutal and noisy. This time, Beaulieu takes on the early catalog of Stomach Ache Records, the cult 90's noise label run by Charlie Ward who was a both a buddie of and frequent collaborator with RRRecords. The early Stomach Ache catalog included 7"s from Gerogerigegege, Stargazers, weirdo death metallers Faxed Head and 7000 Dying Rats, Japan's AUbe, black electronics project Omit, G.G. Allin, Pork Queen, Bananafish compilations, and Evil Moisture, and all of those records are assaulted by Beaulieau on this disc, the Minutoli arms slammed into vinyl grooves and raising brutal blasts of skree and mangled noise rock, walls of chopped up death metal riffery and fucked up sound collages. Brutally noisy turntable damage that turns downright hypnotic as you're blasted with chunk after chunk of mutilated riffing and skree that sometimes gives me the impression of hearing Violent Onsen Geisha ripping apart a stack of hardcore and metal records. Comes in a jewel cases with abstract xerox-art inserts.
