Newcastle based sound deconstructor brb>voicecoil and Stoke based noise punks Omnibadger release collaborative album ‘DISCO’

If it doesn’t provoke thought or debate, it’s not art, it’s entertainment, a night out at the disco.

It’s less about judging a book by its cover than simply paying attention. Ooh, look at that jagged font! Songs called ‘Swastika Tattoo’ and ‘Subhuman’. Hints of fash, must be dodgy!

Of course not. Know your enemy. This is an exercise in observation and critique. And sparse, gnarly electro 303 noise blended with some sludgy great racket and shouty growly vocals that brings the industrial trajectory through to 2022.

What’s the difference between a Nazi and a Hindu? Can you tell by a tattoo? ‘I thought I’d give him a chance – that his swastika tattoo was full of romance – and that it was just a symbol of peace and love…’

This is a collaborative effort, one where distinctive elements from both sides shine through and combine to make something greater than the sum of its parts. Tracks like ‘Summer’ and ‘Sister’ allude to disco divas of the 70s in title alone, ‘Drink the Kool-Aid’ alludes to mass murder and mind control in the same decade. And while the shady sides of the dark noise and industrial scene are well-documented, so is the flipside of the coin, confronting the nastiness head on and asking difficult questions and presenting those challenges in a confrontational manner, both sonically and visually. Feel the pain. Accept the challenges. Face the truth.

Christopher Nosnibor (2022)

"'DISCO' is not an easy listen, and the emphasis is very much on the listen. It is disturbing, uncompromising and as heavy as fuck but, and again I quote Christopher Nosnibor on the Cruel Nature page, "If it doesn’t provoke thought or debate, it’s not art, it’s entertainment, a night out at the disco." It sure as hell ain't a night out at the disco but it does provoke thought. Both brb>voicecoil and Omnibadger play their part in making this an intriguing, satisfying and essential album."

"This is incongruous, unhinged noise-punk from the blackest of pits."
- Sun 13 sun-13.com/2022/10/21/weirdo-rippers-1/

"this is a punishing and pulsating release that HEALTH should be making. ‘Window Wiper’ oozes menace and tribal animosity while ‘Sister’ is a dissonant piece made of cut up vocals, broken beats and underpinned with a noisy synth line. ‘Summer’ takes the mantle of best track due to its calm melodic front being subjected to a barrage of distorted vocals. Neat cover as well."

Absolutely insane thrashy industrial. The drums sound like they were sampled from nail guns, the guitars are just a wall of digital noise, the vocals are shouted slogans bathed in reverb. A perfect album for these turbulent times. Levrikon
