Fossils (Ontario, Canada)
Fossils – Live @ Silent Barn 2010
On this November 2011 U.S. tour Fossils consists of David Payne (tapes, mics, electronics) & Rob Michalchuk (alto sax, trumpet, clarinet). David Payne began building his Fossils empire back in 2004. Since that time Fossils has colonized the underground circuit with a steady flow of ultra-limited tapes/cdrs, many of them through David’s own Middle James Co imprint. The Fossils sound is always one of formless despair. Churning low-grade electronics, primitive tape manipulations, and an aura of stoned reverie are …

Reviver (Norwalk, CT)
Reviver – Snakes in Repose
Begun in early 2006, REVIVER is the solo noise project of Connecticut’s own Chris Donofrio which strictly utilizes a controlled network of graphic equalizers to create raw environments of low frequency death-drone countered with nails-on-chalkboard scrawlings . Having released recordings almost exclusively on cassette tape format for the past 5 years (both independently and on several notable noise stables such as Temple Of Pei and 905 Tapes), REVIVER continues to shape and refine …

Sudden Infant (Berlin, Germany)
Sudden Infant – Tandoori Chicken Scooter III
Born 1965 in Switzerland and currently operating out of Berlin, Joke Lanz (aka Sudden Infant) is one of the most prolific and profound artists working in the border zones where performance and body art meet Improvisation and Noise. In his Sudden Infant guise, Lanz creates a unique blend of physical sound poetry and epileptic noise bursts, using contact microphones, loops, tapes etc. The result is an extreme form of musique concrète that juxtaposes spasmodic …

Black Bloc (Fredonia, NY)
Black Bloc – On The Brink of a New World
Black Bloc has progressed from its original anarcho-crust leanings through forays into anarcho-primitivism and finally this: a raw, emotive style that would make watchers of Fuse TV curl up in a fetal position and wish they were never born. Black Bloc wants to show you his scars–all of them, be they physical (his whole body is tiger-striped with cut marks), mental, or emotional. His sound is like the misery of humanity itself pouring like smog out of …

Pusdrainer (Cincinnati, OH)
Pusdrainer – Portal
Harsh Noise/Power Electronics project of Justin Lakes (also of Friends With Corpses and Orbiting Formats). Began early 2008 as a strictly harsh noise project, Pusdrainer continues to shift between HN, Power Electronics, and Beat driven industrial heaviness. Featured in Decibel magazine and various online/print noise publications.
Pusdrainer’s set will consist of a crunbling harsh wall with heavy feedback and pitch shifted vocals crying for help on top. Accompanied by a video backdrop that loops and churns depravity and degradation until the set dies.
