FDH (2014) Loren

Tit – Tit — FDH, 2014

So I’m a fan of The Hussy. People who read this site have (hopefully) picked up on that. Well, TIT is a two piece with Bobby Hussy and Shawn Foree of the more popular (but previously unheard by me) Digital Leather. Let’s just say that their 12” is an interesting record, and not what I expected.

Where I expected ballsy and rip-roarin’ rock, there’s instrumental and dronish noise. It’s still too hooky to be called drone, but it’s guitar and keys, repeating and meandering through feedback enough to keep interest and ambition without getting too pretentious or playful. There are just 3 songs here, 8:50 in total, and it’s hypnotic and spacey. Side A includes slow and deep vocals with a bit of a No Wave meets robot Krautrock thing going on, while “Drug Antenna,” on Side B is a spaced out session. If you like jammed out, feedback laden guitar-keyboard rock with an almost robotic rhythm, this is something to check out for sure. If you’re looking for pep and party, well, try the other releases from the same musicians.

Steamachine

City of Death
Records Workshop (2023)

City Of Death is the third album from Polish noise makers Steamachine. Having dabbled in a few metal styles over their career, City Of Death has a heavy carnival influence to it which I have to say I really like. It's interesting just how much more sinister things sound when you pump eerie, jingly circus sounds amongst very dark, heavy, … Read more

Faulty Cognitions

Somehow, We Are Here
Cercle Social Records (2024)

The opening track on Somehow, We Are Here is a statement. Yes, Faulty Cognitions is a punk band with members of Low Culture, Shang-A-Lang, Nocturnal Prose,and more. Yes, this shares a lot of commonalities, but it’s also a new band with a new sound. The band humbly says they were going for an early, jangly R.E.M. vibe but self-confess that it has more of a Replacements thing going on … Read more
