Aural Corrosion

by P/O Massacre + Alex Buess & Merzbow

supported by

Der Ohlsen "The war rages now! Menacing murder machines, the constant rumble of helicopters, rockets, tanks and machine guns. Violent mayhem, dislocation, Death. The disturbing centerpiece of this album knows no mercy and it feels as if even if it wanted to spare you it couldn't, because the mission of this war report is too urgent, the reality too dire to shy away from."

▼WV082: P/O Massacre + Alex Buess & Merzbow - Aural Corrosion

聽覺侵蝕噪音宣言

2 years after their debut album on Utech Records, P/O MASSACRE goes deeper in their immersive noise experimentation in this collaboration album with Alex Buess, and Merzbow (Masami Akita 秋田昌美). An architecture of distortion, Moog processors, spring reverb, drone effects and more, then developed in different directions by two electronic/noise veterans. It’s a journey of pure sensation, destruction, and rebirth. A skull-vibrating sound decomposition to your face.

For this very reason of searching the limit of frequency and sound structure, we’ve decided to make this album as double 45 rpm vinyl, for a maximum aural experience, cut for vinyl by Frédéric Alstadt at Mont Analogue Masters. As he says: “it’s the cut of the uncuttable”.

The visual design and layout are taken care of by the Taiwanese noise builder Chia-Chun Xu (Karma Detonation Tapes), with the artwork from the film destroying artist Tseng Peng-Chieh. Heavy gatefold sleeve, with obi and a bonus CD which includes an exclusive track “Nonslaught” from the same recording session by P/O MASSACRE only.

Part of this release was recorded in moscow in February 2022, a few days prior to full-scale russian invasion in Ukraine. Since then we had no other idea than this will be an anti-war record. There’s no doubt that russia is the only one to blame in this catastrophe. War was declared under the slogans of “denazification of Ukraine”, but in fact it’s the nazification of russia itself — the final stage of a years-long process. And we think that the only thing that can end this war is the defeat of the aggressor country. Stop russia!

No words or sounds can stop military aggression and genocide. But charities can help people affected by this war. Part of the sales of this album (both digital and physical) will be donated to Okhmatdyt children’s hospital in Kyiv, Ukraine, which provides medical treatment to children and adults wounded during russian shelling. You can also use the link below to donate more by yourself.

“Cutting through with clanging post-punk tones like signals sent through clouds of poison gas. The electronics are dubbed outwith static and distorted samples pulsing in away that recalls Autechre at their most mean-spirited… Overpowering the listener with massive whooshes and roars, but there's a frantic beat at the heart of it all. lt's like listening to a set by Pan Sonic played from inside a sandstorm.”
- Phil Freeman, The Wire 469

Amlux (20th Anniversary Edition) + Bonus Tracks
by Merzbow

supported by 13 fans who also own “Aural Corrosion”

Percussive, tin rattling aggression that melts into overblown electro-blitzkrieg & then a delicious bass drone-thumping, adding metallic noise & a crunching assault & briefly swirling whip & a beat-droning pulse & some helicopter flailing with titanium-aquatic slushes dispersed with bursts into shrill, brash scraping that ebbs & flows in gutteral squalls & alien demon vocalizations. Bonus tracks erupt in bubbling bass/swirl/scratch improvs that crush. MERZILLA

Black Crows Cyborg
by Merzbow / Prurient

supported by 12 fans who also own “Aural Corrosion”

The darkness of this album along with its name is not nonsense, but has a lot to do with what you are going to find when you listen to it. A perfect ambience that gives you chills just trying to imagine what the "Black Crow Cyborg" coming towards you would be like. Two legends together on the same LP, you can't ask for more, LISTEN IT NOW! kato09
