MERZBOW, KEIJI HAINO, BALAZS PANDI - An Untroublesome Defencelessness (CD)

The renowned Japanese electronic maestro Merzbow (aka Masami Akita) joins forces with his fellow countryman Keiji Haino and Hungarian drummer Balazs Pandi on another example of extreme sonic experimentation. Merzbow and Pandi, who have been playing together since 2009 push the envelope once again with improv singer and noise guitarist Haino. The resulting sound is a relentlessly intense cauldron of caustic power chording, adrenalized blast beats and double bass drum thunder, and grinding white noise fusillades, courtesy of this fearsome threesome. 2LP, 180 gram
