BRANDKOMMANDO - DENIAL (CD by Mask of the Slave Records)
BRANDKOMMANDO - DER PROTEST (CD by Mask of the Slave Records)

'Denial' has tracks, Prophet, Pray, I'm Not, Idol, When Jesus Meet Satan, To My Brother, 7.2015, and on 'Der Protest', Bank, Kirche (Church?), Polizist (Policeman?), Religion, Freiheit (freedom?), and Ich (I, Me?). If there is anything familiar to these 12 tracks sonically, it is that they seem to use found sound, even orchestral – Wagner (To my brother), field recordings inside locations, snippets of speech, some in English of sermons (Prophet) mixed with distorted static, drones and squeals. Often these remain after the field recordings, or in the case of Kirche, the speech is periodically processed by an echo which then dominates the last section. Tracks often have noticeable sections. Reverb and distortion. I suppose these could be placed with the Power Electronics category, though not as provocative perhaps as the originators? For myself, with noise, or noise music, which this is not, any attempt at thematics seemed pointless, often deliberately, as in the case of the Rita, Skate and Shark, who could tell, or Merzbow's Bloody Sea. Where it attempted sincerity, we had the noise of Mattin and Boyd Rice, in which the vehicle of noise was and is unable to carry any message, by definition. We are left with track titles to indicate a message and material in the tracks, which are at times very clearly in support of the title. I've said elsewhere that an aesthetic experience can be gained by 'reflective judgement'. For me here, the material is too literal for this to take place. (I guess that is why I'm no fan of Opera). As PE was about sensation, pace 'reflective judgment' or any judgment, I guess it fits the genre, separating it from the informationless noise. (jliat)
