BARRIKAD

Muhmur:

Barrikad ‎– Through The Voice One Becomes Animal
Have just spent a pleasant while listening to the latest release from Swedish noise makers Barrikad.
I first came across Barrikad about ten years ago through the excellent compilation "Krimkall" a double cassette release from Krimljud and then a year or so later they were part of the Segerhuva crowd and appeared on the "Sweetness Will Overcome" compilation CD. The Barrikad sound back then was a tsunami of noise, full on distortion with non-empathetic warbling. Very little to separate Barrikad from the masses of Scando-noise projects that existed at the start of this century apart from some nice and neat tape splicing and sample edits …
Ten years after and Barrikad - the sound of Barrikad - is more focused and refined. Personal and directed.
"Through The Voice One Becomes Animal" is a C15 cassette released by Nil By Mouth Recordings. ("Is It Not First Through The Voice One Becomes Animal?" is a question asked by Gilles Deleuze in "Thousand Plateaus:Capitalism And Schizophrenia"). Two single pieces on each side … beginning with "Freedom Is Only Possible In The Struggle For Liberation", which I believe to be a statement by Ulrike Meinhoff. The piece features spoken soundbites and sloganeering by members of the RAF as well as news reportage. The sound is crunching analog synthesizer with a ticking clock offset against a mechanical pulsebeat. Very Deutsche PE and old school industrial. A well constructed piece with hammer against metal a sound I last heard on a news report from the frontline of demonstration in Kiev, the Ukrainian street beat - the sound of the barricade.
Side two is very similar in sound and construct. "Utanför Det Samhälle Jag Tvingas Vara En Del Av" (or "I am forced to exist outside this community" … apologies if I am way out, my Swedish is a little rostig these days) has the same mechanical ticking, the factory rhythm but this piece builds to the sound of anarchic beatings, all with a narrative in an unrecognisable foreign tongue.
The cassette is packaged in a 7" pouch with 24 page booklet printed in both Swedish and English, there is some sort of Barrikad history / manifesto alongside writings by Barrikad. Sleeve notes that would make Adi Newton jealous! I would go as far to say that this release is perfect.
"Through The Voice One Becomes Animal" has been released before but in ultra ultra limited editions on 10" lathe cut disc and on cassette by Exlibris Nordén.
I am now discovering Barrikad and their "We Make Nihilists Smile" CD that Phage Tapes released in 2011.

Nil By Mouth Recordings are a new label to me, the name cropped up on Chondritic forum board and also SI board but I was slightly put off by the releasing stuff by folk with names such as The Vomit Arsonist & Chloroform Rapist .. I am slightly snobbish when it comes to names but with so much "stuff" being released I have to pick carefully .. now after listening to Barrikad I discover they have released great names like Altar Of Flies, N. and Fear Konstruktor in the past and have just put out cassettes by Arkhe and Uncodified. I have sent off E Mails to Nil By Mouth Recordings but have yet to get a response. If anyone from NBM is reading this please get in contact.
This cassette is essential : www.exoteric-zine.com/nilbymouth or get in contact and buy from Barrikad via Discogs.

DEAD BODY COLLECTION "THE NIGHT" C30 NBM41TAPE



Tonight is that night!
The bloodthirsty killer will enter into your home in search of a victim - a victim to fulfill his darkest desires.
He finds her, in her apartment, alone! Press play and home invasion can begin at midnight.
The first track reflects a sadistic murder at midnight, portrayed with bloody harsh noise wall.
The second track is pure brutal static madness that mirrors the hidden desires found in of most of us.
Yes, half of hour is enough for two glorious murders! This was a night to remember...

ALO GIRL"BANGKOK" C50 NBM42TAPE



The forms of prostitutes. Only faces, eyes and/or empty rooms, toilets, inns.
Everything is very reminiscent of the 'smell of rotten stuff! "Bangkok" finds the always worthwhile and brutally creative Italian HNW/Harsh noise project
Alo Girl offers up forty minutes worth of thick'n'truly tortures noise matter. The tracks focus in on building up,
shifting  and often storm swirling layers of static roar, hammering noise down-pours  and oceanic waves of noise tone
with inserts of real interviews from the red light districts.

The tape comes with classy & professional luxury cards set  in black plastic bag with photo attached.

FEBERDROM "INTRUSION OF MORTALITY" C42 NBM43TAPE



The intrusion of death finds its veritable expression through the pernicious sounds of this tape, which follows the other two tapes released by Utmarken, Ominous and Jartecknet and the brief appearance on the "Sverige" compilation out on Release The Bats.

Six tracks for a 40 minutes length: dark industrial dances, a gloomy serenade played with grief and sorrow by an orchestra of white-dressed corpses. Horror atmospheres, ghoulish elegance and a special handmade packaging with a set of 5 postcards with mournful black ribbon.

Limited edition of 120 copies

KHMER NOIR "BODLAR MED SVARTA FANOR" C42 SINGLE SIDE - NBM44TAPE



Khmer Noir is a swedish duo known for a tape released by Styggelse in 2011. A bunch of live performances and a hard to find CDr come full circle on this project that rests on a solid basis of aggressive power-electronics inspired by The Grey Wolves and the fellow Survival Unit.

A carpet of synths set ablaze, urban guerrilla warfare vocals and solid noise textures. An explosive mix reviving on tape for an analogic assault of great impact and violence, "Bodlar Med Svarta Fanor" is in fact the tape reprint of the above-mentioned Cdr. Special packaging with black vinyl envelope and insert.

Limited edition of 120 copies

THE RITA & HERUKRAT "RED IMPRINT FROM ANKLE RIBBON" C30 NBM45TAPE



After the joint work with Caligula 031, The Rita comes back on Nil By Mouth with a split tape with the promising american act Herukrat. The colour explosions and the sexual disease of SELF SHOP turns off its intense shades for a darker and deeper sound.

This collaboration is ideally connected to the recent CD "Ballet Feet Position" out on Old Europa Café /Elettronica Radicale, the legs of an imaginary ballet dancer are cut off abruptly by the sharp razor slashes of Sam McKinlay, a thick noise wall served with sick vocal samples. Herukrat joins the dance with a well-structured darkening harsh noise, a sort of death industrial with harsh features. Another piece to value this young but noteworthy project.

EDGE OF DECAY "The Whores of New Age" C34 Single Side- NBM46TAPE



"The Whores of New Age" is cruel and filthy soundtrack from the endless wastelands of junk. It is never ending story from the dirtiest and darkest thoughts of mankind. A world filled with tortured souls and lies bigger than human itself. End result from this agony and frustration is something more than unspeakable.

Where man meets metal there is always space for uncontrollable art creation Meet your maker and worship the ugly sound of metal and junk.

NAXAL PROTOCOL "The Stasi File" C20- NBM47TAPE






Arising from the ashes of Cazzodio, Naxal Protocol paves the way for a telluric, warmongering power electronics, reminding the molotov blasts of The Grey Wolves and Survival Unit. The CD released by Eibon Records "The Guilty Should Get What They Deserve!" set the role of the citizen inside a state-controlled system. THE STASI FILE resumes the terror of the ill-famed police of the late DDR to establish an analogy with the recent disorders of Ferguson and Baltimora. Two long tracks of ominous electronics, sometimes rough, sometimes wrapped in a suffocating atmosphere. An endless descent into the disorders, among flames and billy clubs, between the abuse of the authority and the social impotence.
Wrapped in a 'top secret' envelope with inserts

ORDER OF THE VIOLENCE & N. "Split" C20 - NBM48TAPE



The new split tape marked by Nil By Mouth comes with a new morbid exposure of Order Of The Violence (Dead Body Collection, Creation Through Destruction and now also Kosmodrom) and the coming back of the analog virtuosism of the noise master N. Short but sharp it's a minimal tableau of a disturbed mind that extends the sickness to the bones, to the flesh, to the whole body. Starting by the tales of the body horror with the guest appearance of Jan/Geräuschmanufaktur, the N. side is a spiral of deadly sounds, an altered state of mind, a mind's joke!

KOSMODROM "Journey To The Far Side Of The Sun" C30 - NBM49TAPE




Kosmodrom is the new being of Aleksandar Nenad (Dead Body Collection, Creation Through Destruction and Order Of The Violence). It's harsh noise, it's harsh noise wall, it's harsh noise wall created in a psychedelic way. It's the wall of sound of a spaceman who losts the ship, the scream of a man who knows that he can't come back and that won't be alive to see the end. A rolling, restless and troubled trip in the space. An one-way soundtrack for a journey to the far side of the sun...
