This split 3" cd pairs up the blackened doom/noise mutations Layr and Necroparthenophagy, both of 'em proponents of seriously weird and noisy evil...
New York one man band Necroparthenophagy is first up with a nearly nine minute track of random metallic clatter, distant cavernous sound events, buzzing electrical cables, strange bestial breathing, random guitar noise and dissonant fragments of ominous melody. It's all very random and chaotic at first, but after a while coalescing into a strange rhythmic crawl as anguished cries and howling vocals begin to appear, a murky slow motion grind taking root underneath layers of cavernous drift, sounding like a slime encrusted mix of Wolf Eyes and Abruptum. A formless breed of blackened dirge noise, all creepy and wasted and shambling, with bizarre vocals that sound like some crazed bluesman shrieking at the bottom of a sewer drain. Fans of stuff like Abruptum, Ahulabrum, Gormantatinus, and the ultra-damaged black delirium that Korperschwache coughs up will love this.
And next up is Layr. Holy crap. Like Necroparthenophagy, this was a new discovery for us, and we sure as hell weren't expecting the vicious industrial doom that this band would deliver. "Looming" is a pitch-black wave of apocalyptic sludge, a washed out doom metal riff surging over the percussive hammering of machinery and factory noise, distant booming rhythms (tympani, maybe?) echoing in the background, hissing demonic vokills drifting overhead, the drums are murky and very metallic sounding, as if they are pounding out the sparse, brutal rhythms on empty oil drums and sheet metal. It's very industrial sounding, and very ugly, this pounding pitch-black crawl set against a background of tolling bells, random banging and pneumatic hiss, electronic fx and vintage synthesizer tones. Fucking awesome. Very reminiscent of Abruptum, but waaaaaaaay slower and more wretched.
The disc comes in a black and white sleeve, limited to fifty copies.
