Mayan Apocalypse – Mayan Apocalypse (CD-R)




This is the first release from a brand new noise act (consisting of Thompson and Zachary Short `Black Beast Of Arrrghhh`himself) from Florida, USA. I love this album. It`s a mixture of noise and spoken rants. There`s five tracks, which are:
1- the vision: minimal electronics (recalls Suicide and \ or Corpusse) with some noise bursts (thrown in for good measure) colliding with Thompsn`s own spoken rant. An amazing epic piece indeed.
2- #@ you suck: bizarre noise constructions + spoken rant = an unclassifiable piece of sonic mayhem.
3- anarchy in the 727: I think that Mayan Apocalypse are not fans of the Sex Pistols (you gotta hear this to believe it).
4- the dream: we hear Thompson`s voice (with echo \ reverb included) mixed with lo-fi, toned down feedback. Experimental, almost dreamy noisescapes which slowly becomes a nightmarish reality.
5- the end: the conclusion, an out there, out of this world apocalyptic bleak nightmare. Loads of feedback confronting Thompson`s spoken rants. I need at least two Tylenols to survive this album. Magnificent. Get it here: Thompson
