KILLER BUG  Beyond The Valley Of The Tapes  2 x CD   (Troniks)   13.98
Beyond The Valley Of The Tapes IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE FOR ORDER

Holy shit, the extreme feedback garble and blobs of distorto power carnage on this double disc set are melting the backs of my eyeballs. Troniks has assembled this definitive collection of recorded work from Kazumoto Endo's mid-90's harsh noise project, before he went "solo" and began releasing stuff under his own name, most of which has been out of print for ages and is re-mastered for this release. KILLER BUG released a stack of cassettes and vinyl from 1994-1995, all of which was extremely high quality, genre-defining stuff from what some would call the "second wave" of Japanese noise, alongside folks like Pain Jerk, etc. Many cassette-release KILLER BUG tracks were epic storms ranging from 19 to 30 minutes in length, but Endo brought structure and dynamics to his fast paced noise assaults as he sculpts whiplash inducing explosions of electronic chaos from effects pedals,etc...but also with space and texture that just makes this stuff that much more brutal. High energy stuff, for sure. 140 minutes of braindrill, including the Vaginal Disco cs (originally released on Mother Savage Noise Productions 1995), Brutal Rainbow cs (Noise 1995), Cunt Explosion 7" (Releasing Eskimo 1995), Your Wife is Mine 7" (Self Abuse Records 1995), and lots more. Booklet has welcome track info/details. Definitely recommended to fans of sick pedal crunching harsh Japanese noise.
