Tactical Eradication Function - Armature (CDr album, Trauma Tone Recordings 2002)



This CDr album is plain old harsh noise with a industrial feel to it. And it has an old school esthetic in artwork and sound.

It contains fast going oscillating synth noises that mix up with obliterating noise. Some parts are more calmer and dark ambient orientated, while other have hypnotic loops and sequencers, giving the uncomfortable feeling of being in a scientific lab where they study on nasty diseases. The harsh noise and crushed textures are a constant in this release, switching with more and short 'break like' noise rhythms. In one of the eleven Untitled tracks, even sounds of howling wolfs can be heard, accompanied by a bleak soundscape, very nice.

Armature presents a very uncompromised, dark and chaotic trip, from noisy factories to experimenting labs. This is not a release for the faint hearted.
I will definitely try to check out more of this project in the future.
