P/O MASSACRE + ALEX BUESS & MERZBOW / AURAL CORROSION
フランスと中国に拠点を置くレーベルWV Sorcerer Productions 巫唱片より2枚組45回転アナログLP＋ボーナスCD仕様で2023年にリリースされた、ロシア出身のSax奏者Anton Ponomarev（アントン・ポノマレフ）と、モスクワのノイズロックバンドJars、EevaのメンバーでもあるギタリストのAnton Obrazeena（アントン・オブラジーナ）によるユニットP/O MASSACREが、スイスのSax奏者／作曲家Alex Buess（アレックス・ブエス）とメルツバウの2組とコラボした作品！ ロシア、スイス、日本でそれぞれのパートを録音し、Alex Buessがミックスして仕上げた、リズミック・ノイズ・アルバム!!! P/O MASSACREのパートは、ロシアによるウクライナ侵攻直前の2022年2月にモスクワで録音されたことから、“Anti-war Music”となり、本作の売上の一部が、ロシアからの攻撃で負傷した子供や大人に治療を提供するウクライナ／キーウのオフマディト小児病院に寄付されます。 <a href="https://wvsorcerer.bandcamp.com/album/aural-corrosion">Aural Corrosion P/O Massacre + Alex Buess & Merzbow</a> 聽覺侵蝕 噪音宣言 2 years after their debut album on Utech Records, P/O MASSACRE goes deeper in their immersive noise experimentation in this collaboration album with Alex Buess, and Merzbow (Masami Akita 秋田昌美). An architecture of distortion, Moog processors, spring reverb, drone effects and more, then developed in different directions by two electronic/noise veterans. It’s a journey of pure sensation, destruction, and rebirth. A skull-vibrating sound decomposition to your face. For this very reason of searching the limit of frequency and sound structure, we've decided to make this album as double 45 rpm vinyl, for a maximum aural experience, cut for vinyl by Frédéric Alstadt at Mont Analogue Masters. As he says: "it's the cut of the uncuttable". The visual design and layout are taken care of by the Taiwanese noise builder Chia-Chun Xu (Karma Detonation Tapes), with the artwork from the film destroying artist Tseng Peng-Chieh. Heavy gatefold sleeve, with obi and a bonus CD which includes an exclusive track "Nonslaught" from the same recording session by P/O MASSACRE only. Part of this release was recorded in moscow in February 2022, a few days prior to full-scale russian invasion in Ukraine. Since then we had no other idea than this will be an anti-war record. There's no doubt that russia is the only one to blame in this catastrophe. War was declared under the slogans of "denazification of Ukraine", but in fact it’s the nazification of russia itself — the final stage of a years-long process. And we think that the only thing that can end this war is the defeat of the aggressor country. Stop russia! No words or sounds can stop military aggression and genocide. But charities can help people affected by this war. Part of the sales of this album (both digital and physical) will be donated to Okhmatdyt children's hospital in Kyiv, Ukraine, which provides medical treatment to children and adults wounded during russian shelling.
