This is very, very good stuff, worth checking, people. And the review seems pretty good as well, Mies! :wink:

there are 3 kinds of sound:

-Silence (no sound at all)
-Music
-Noise (the new trend)

:wink:

Actually, silence does not exist. Experimentalists have played with the idea, and recorded the perception of silence with hypersensitive microphones. They amplified it, played it loud, and let the mics pick up the result, to go through the process again. Apparently it is possible to make compositions out of the results, and with succes I daresay.

Noise means sound that one does not like. To some, the sound of an approaching train is noise, to others it is music. Noise is an opinion, relativation. Not a concretum.

Good point, and I definitely agree with you, what is noise to some can be music to others, but the fact that bothers me, is that this is supposed to be a metal reviews site, and I don't want to sound like an elitist, but the reviews you've been making since you dropped underground black metal for good, are better suited elsewhere, IMO (nothing against your taste in music, of course, but post-rock, noise, exprimental and neo-folk have little to do with metal)

In any case I have always enjoyed reading your reviews. :wink:

They certainly do not belong here, but I write them for another site soon to be as well. Metalreviews agrees to take my reviews, and I'm ok with giving them.

This is wicked actually.

I was listening to it and all I could think of was Apocalypse Now for a while.

It's a bit like an audio version of a magic painting. Like you listen to it and don't hear much, but ifyou relax your ears there are shapes.

This sounds awfully pretentious.

But I'll try it out anyways.
