CATEGORY: NOISE-METAL | DURATION: 31 MINUTES
Primal noise metal, comprising evil, pulverizing slow-paced riffs entwined with hellish howling and a vortex of guitar feedback and white dissonance. On Maximum Love + Fuck Japan’s Zeni Geva – KK Null, Mitsuru Tabata and Ikuo Taketani – use bludgeoning repetition to enforce their extreme sonic visions; they have no bass, only drums and two guitars – one to grind out the skull-crushing riffs, the other (Null) to create as much delirious noise as possible, augmented by cacophonous swathes of electrified violin.
