Destroyed Electricity summer is over, now it's time for Resignation IV winter
"The singer navigates a new beginning with some of the most honest and inventive music of her career." - Brittany Spanos of the Rolling Stone, probably on some potent crack, with this attribute "inventive"; didn't know that making songs that sound like they were made before the Great War but with a dash of modern production is considered inventive, but does somebody really reads the Rolling Stone for realistic music criticism? I personally would rather hear the hot ... read more
Another instance of knowing one track is nice and sparked curiosity to check the whole project followed by expected letdown
The title to the first track kinda sums this record up; ironically, that same number is the only one I'd exclude from that description
The literal same situation as I had with IGOR: I can appreciate the art and skillfulness, but I just don't vibe at all with these neo-soul beats. I hoped for the sound from "Thought I Was Dead" throughout the whole record.
A lot less abrasive, noisy, "brutal and harrowing" than some people portray this to be; they've obviously never heard clipping.'s earliest material, acting like the whole record sounds like the track "Compliance"
More or less fine, but is the singing on the closing track to be taken seriously? Sounds like a shitpost to me, forgive my ignorance if that's some traditional song
Just when I complained this record was dull, the last 4 numbers hit me quite a bit, especially the last one - some short and cute solo on it

"What are better gamelan records, in your opinion? I am going through the most highly rated gamelan releases on RYM and this was one of them, but I'm always curious for more gamelan - it might be my favourite traditional music out there (not to mention that I based my artistic alter-ego on a fictitious person from Yogyakarta)"

On IreviewMerzbow's review of Merzbow - 抜刀隊 With Memorial Gadgets
"A huge difference between the 1986 version (which, apparently, still aren't the original recordings, but remixes by the label RRRec themselves) and the 1993 re-issue is the bonus disc "Loop Panic Limited".
The original tracks were released in 2024 "with bonus songs from the same time" (https://kontaktaudio.bandcamp.com/album/batztoutai-with-memorial-gadgets)"
