Just received an order from Phage, which included the recent SS release "Wreck".  This is a short (28 mins) but extremely powerful harsh noise onslaught with a lot of subtleties.  I find it exhilirating!  Could have stood for another track but this one was just long enough.

Any suggestions on other things in this vein?

I remember their self-titled debut CD on Helicopter (re-released on Troniks/PACrec & later as a 2x7" on A Dear Girl Called Wendy) being very diverse and full of subtleties as you mentioned, while still being a straight onslaught of harsh noise. This was over ten years prior to Wreck, which I have not heard - or many of their more recent albums, but I have a feeling their whole discography has a bit of what you crave. It's a bit massive already; anyone have suggestions of Sissy Spacek's better releases?

My favorite is French Record. A lot of start and stop and metal clamoring, maybe not always full on harsh noise but very tasteful. Especially that track "Really Into the Haters".

Wherever you found their California Ax 4CD set, purchase it with closed eyes.
Also, in case of wanting any electro-acoustic works, buy Sepsis CD.

The 4 disc set should be on my doorstep today or Monday!

Never liked this guy. Always came off as "bratty"

I like the ridiculous grindy shit, specifically Gore Jet and Anti-Clockwise 7"s. Awesome live band too.

Musically or personally?

I've spun gore jet hundreds of times, really good live. Dash is a favorite of mind by them, though, highly recommended.

Are there any interviews with Mumma and Wiese only about Sissy Spacek?  I'd like to hear about their process.  The Ways of Confusion album in particular makes it seem like there is some interesting procedure there.

Lots of SS activity this summer (records, shows) due to it being the 20th anniversary. The next issue of the New Forces zine will be all Sissy Spacek with a history of the band / interview with John and Charlie, among other things.

Absolutely something to look forward to there.
