Comus: First Utterance
Freaky folk from the 70's--may take some mental adjustment to get the hang of it. Mostly goofy and disturbing, but occasional shots of real beauty and even some poppy moments.
Totally forgot about this thread, some truly great stuff in here. And yeah, Current 93 (and related folk/industrial projects, like Nurse With Wound, Death in June, Coil, Time Machines, SPK, and NON) are very much worth checking out. I'd also nominate Thunder Perfect Mind as the ideal intro to their somewhat formidable discography, but depending upon the musical disposition of whomever I'm trying to convert to Current 93 fanboyism, I've occasionally had more luck with Of Ruine or Some Blazing Starre and Sleep Has His House.
In the past couple of years Jason Lescalleet has become one of my favorite noise-makers, and his recent prolific release schedule has not dimmed the quality of his racket at all. If you like tape music, dig intricately textured improv, or just really appreciate the power of the drone, and Lescalleet isn't on your radar, you need to take some corrective steps. I think Songs About Nothing is a particularly fine entry point into his noise, plus the cheeky cover reference just makes me happy. For fans of: Graham Lambkin, Aaron Dilloway, Kevin Drumm, Ramleh, Yellow Swans, NON, Merzbow, Birchville Cat Motel, Prurient, Jason Crumer, Skullflower, Ground Zero, The Caretaker, Negativland, Pauline Oliveros, Nurse With Wound, etc.
