Shameless self promotion...The HATE Noise on Pleonasm!

Occasionally, I put up some of my own music for download here. This time, it actually overlaps with previous program on WIDR (Obscuro!--where this site's name comes from)...sort of. A lot of the oddball shit I gathered for that program came from THIS website. This dude does an 'incorrect music' program on WFMU in Jersey and looks for all types of homemade stuff to post on his site/play on his show. I was actually turned onto this site by a fellow WIDR DJ (J-Unit from the Deuce Project, I do believe) and thought it would probably be a good outlet for some of my recording endeavors. I sent Mr. Cummings a 2-disc set of my recordings under the guise of The HATE Noise, and he wrote back, wondering if we could do two compilations--one of sociopathic rap jams (which I had plenty of) and one of musical crank calls (there was only one of these on the original disc.)

So, we put up the rap stuff.

...then I took my damn sweet time organizing a few crank-call sessions. Here are the results. Apparently, they're so funny that we get to do another round (or two, or three!)

Both these posts have full-length album downloads, and apparently they're getting around because one of our rap tunes turned up in some beer-brewing guy's podcast, and like 3200 people have listened to the shit. Crazy.

Forte 9, feelin' fine

...and I dropped some more metal on ya this week, too. Didn't really do too much preparation, but there were still surprisingly few errors. Also, an incredibly bizarre EP in its entirety by a 'pagan, experimental' black metal band from the Ukraine called Brainstorm.

Society's Fault - Episode 22

Lots of requests this time...plus we brought in an acoustic and did some homemade bed music. It kinda sucked. We weren't especially funny, either, even though we think we are. Apparently we also did a good job of pushing the limits regarding what you can play on air...some pretty racy stuff, including Pansy Division's 'Smells like Queer Spirit.' Hell yeah.

Dude, what the fuck is this shit?

Seriously. I just heard this record yesterday...'Paradise Don't Come Cheap' by New Kingdom. It was on a list of 'different' rap albums, much like the Sensational stuff I put up a while back. I think this one takes the cake on the weirdness factor, though. The beats aren't so much beats as they are noisy bongwater sound collages, and the two dudes don't so much rap as they rasp and growl incomprehensibly about whatever the fuck they want. Plus every song is sloooooooooooowwwwwwww and kinda dizzy-feeling. Check out the lyricals:
'Have you ever been suspended in....AAAAIIIIIRRRR?? Well, I have in my favorite chair, in my favorite room, where I hope shit can't break me out this cocoon.' (Suspended in Air)
One of the all-around coolest rap albums ever. So, I'm putting it up as a download.

Bizarro Jerry's Kutout Bin Klassics, Vol. 6

...and look at that shit. Three posts in one day. That's probably a new record for the site. So here we have Lazy's second album 'The Lazy Music Group.' I don't care for the first one too much...it's just a Beat Happening ripoff that's kinda boring overall. This one, however, is a LOT different. I love pretty much all mid-90's grunge-rock bands that got signed to a major for one record then broke up, so maybe I'm biased, but these guys (er...girls and guy) are like Beat Happening with the balls of Dinosaur Jr or something. It's weird hearing this because the formula is pretty similar stylistically to my own group, Coma Nova. The dude yells and plays nasty-loud guitar, and the girl sings weird lyrics in a plain voice. Some of the songs are a little repetitive, but 1, 3, 6, 7, 9 and 11 are all terrific. Released in 1996 on Roadrunner Records for some reason.

Forte 8, too much black metal? Not likely!

...but there sure was a fucking lot of it! That's the way we like it here at Forte. I played 4 cuts from the album 'Muukalainen Puhuu' by Oranssi Pazuzu, a Finnish group that walks the line between traditional black metal and kraut-rock like Can and Faust. What the fuck, right? It's an interesting mix for sure. I would say everybody into progressive music of any sort should check these guys out. Probably the most original thing I've heard in the past few months. Check out their myspace page.

Beyond that, just a whole lot of strange stuff and a really long doom-rock cut.
