It would seem some of your definitions of brutal would differ from mine, for pure sonic aggression and visceral brutality I give you angry white boy techno straight from the gutters of Den Hague.
Interr-Ference/ Beverly Hills 808 303 – Asociaal Hard Op Je Bek! 1996
That second one, for trivia fans, features the last recorded (well, last recorded and released) guitar work from Mick Ronson (Spiders from Mars) – it’s the middle of three solos, his is the slide work..
And finally this one, probably not such a good fit for the thread, but included for imho the best use of a very rude word starting with C in rock ‘n’ roll
This thread is a memory lane marvel for me.On Spotify/YouTube later (left all my records behind when I disappeared from Edinburgh over 20 years ago)
Love the Feotus video, Feotus, Swans, Big Black.Buthole surfers,Wiseblood, Rapeman………. were all part of a crazy time with buckets, micro dots and magic mushrooms whilst listening to music not meant for fragile minds.
Atomizer was the record of choice to give a visitor to skin up on, hoping they would read the back of the sleeve.
locust abortion technician is another album I used to love. Sweat loaf, human cannonball, Kuntz and 22 going on 23.
I’ll add this, despite being told it was hatred for vegans I still loved it and still think it’s ace. lyrics and guitar are harsh.
The lyrics to this are pretty brutal, especially when you get to the last verse:
They powered up the city with hydro-electric juice
Now we got more electricity than we can ever use
They flooded out the hollow and all the folks down there moved out
But they got paid so there ain’t nothin’ else to think about
Some of them made their living cutting the timber down
Snaking it one log at a time up the hill and into town
T.V.A. had a way to clear it off real fast
Lots of men and machinery build a dam and drown the rest
Uncle Frank lived in a cabin down on Cedar Creek
Bought fifteen acres when he got back home from overseas Fifteen rocky acres, figured no one else would want
‘Til all that backed up water had to have some place to go
Uncle Frank couldn’t read or write
Never held down a job, or needed one in his life
They assured him there’d be work for him in town
Building cars, It’s already going down
The cars never came to town and the roads never got built And the price of all that power kept on going straight uphill The banks around the hollow sold for lake-front property
Where doctors, lawyers, and musicians teach their kids to
Water-ski
Uncle Frank couldn’t read or write
So there was no note or letter found where he died
Just a rope around his neck and the kitchen table turned on it’s side
I always get the link from the app – if it displays the shortened url it’s not a problem…it just didn’t show in the preview so I presumed it didn’t work.
