Hated Bruit Kollektiv

2008 release ** Limited edition of 250 hand-numbered copies. Comes in a folded A2-poster sleeve. "HBK is an ephemeric project held among musicians behind Genetic Transmission. Moan and Nojsens. Three minds. three individualities. tree artists sharing one inspired vision. These are people we know for years so it became somehow natural to invite their bastard child to our NN therapy group finally. starting the "Harsh Kontakt" series of relases from now on. The sound sculpture presented hereby has been captured at Bez Kontroli Fest 2007 as probably HBK's best gig to date. Expect the unexpected. as they have gone the whole hog. without no mercy to the audience or themselves. OK. it's all there: refreshing traditional industrial. warming harsh noise. stoned bruitist plunderphonics. and last but not least—good taste and the fucking clue. VSOP. It actually takes about 1/4 of the way through this to discover it's not the full blown noise attack the first 10 minutes suggest. as this settles into a nice. post- industrial. hazy. metallic drone thing for awhile. before scuttering off again into noisier realms. populated by scraping junk sounds. cut-ups. hissing noise and broken frequencies. I detect elements of Contagious Orgasm. Zoviet France. H. Caspar and standard Japanese noise fare all collapsing into one other over it's 40 minute time frame. —as presented on Malignant."
