.@lassemarhaug adds: "The word brutalist came to mind because the music has a kind of architectural quality. It's loud/strong, but it doesn't let loose, the shape/form is clear." https://t.co/ZZERiDK67q

Today's noise testimonial: @lassemarhaug weighs in on AGENESIS "I love your album. It's very different from the previous ones, more direct, abrupt, harsh, immediate, brutalist almost - but with a strong sense of form that keeps me going back to it. Kudos" https://t.co/cQaP0QQAcI

In 2017 I was working on AGENESIS, considering its direction, listening to music from Carcass to Xenakis & musing on what made music "brutal"- some great responses in this thread, a reminder of when twitter worked & a possible playlist adjunct to the album
What's the most brutal music or track you know? Links to online listening if possible. Making playlist plans for tomorrow while neighbours are out

"early tracks pair throbbing sub bass with discordant drones... snarling electronics [then] sturm und drang felt in its absence in [later] organ drones. A wealth of detail - contrasts draw the listener's ear to different elements." Thx @frogworth @fbiradio
