Merzbow – Ouroboros ( Soleil Moon) 2010
I’ve listened to this three times now and each time I hear new and exciting things. This latest fresh slice of Merzbow goodness is a 56 minute long track which is like Tauromachine, Pulse Demon and 1930 have been put in a blender. It is probably the finest Merzbow solo CD since 2007.
Why is it so good? This is the type of Merzbow record that first blew me away over three years ago. The sort of record that astonishes and surprises me. The type of record that every time I listen to it I hear something new. The type of record where there is this strange balance between the harshest of noise, oppressive drones and cheeky bubbling flourishes. The type of record that I know my experience will be totally different to yours. The best type of Merzbow record. There will only be 500 of these. Be quick.
