NOISEXTRA - The noise podcast.

Joel St. Germain, the elusive owner of Spite and the man behind Humectant Interruption, gives us a glimpse into his fascinating personal experience of running a 90s noise label. We talk about assembling tapes with pancakes and pig snouts, getting into noise at the age of 15, and if Greh’s driving lessons stuck. Another noise history class is in session; no hall passes will be issued.Follow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextraEpisode Sponsors:Foul PreyTroniksMisanthropic Agenda | Bandcamp(use code NOISEXTRA for free shipping within the USA)

Enter a world of artificial time and nature with "Now Wait for Last Year" by Caroline K. As a member of Nocturnal Emissions, Caroline helped craft a strain of early industrial, but by the time her only solo album was released, a new landscape of sound emerged. This is a very special and singular album from 1987, and we all get swept away by its scope.Check out Now Wait For Last Year on Nocturnal Emissions BandcampFollow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextraEpisode Sponsors:TroniksMisanthropic Agenda | Bandcamp(use code NOISEXTRA for free shipping within the USA)Recent Listening:Detestifi Yellow Swans Erik Nystrand "Songs of Fester"Skin Crime "Tales from the Crypt"Prurient "Casablanca Flamethrower"Paranoid Time "Rat Life"Nocturnal Emissions "Shake Those Chains Rattle Those Cages"Nocturnal Emissions "Spiritflesh"Nocturnal Emissions "Stoneface" Nocturnal Emissions "Mouth of Babes"

Blake Edwards (Vertonen, Crippled Intellect Productions, Ballast NVP) delivers the heavy knowledge on one of industrial culture’s originators by bringing Z'EV "An Uns Momento" CD for us to explore. Blake worked directly with Z'EV to release this obscure material, and he relays the process of putting it together as well as his continuing work with Z'EV up to Z'EV's unfortunate passing. Set your CD players to "random" and see what happens.Check out Blake's label Ballast NVPFollow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextra Episode Sponsors:TroniksMisanthropic Agenda | Bandcamp(use code NOISEXTRA for free shipping within the USA)Recent Listening:tac "out of context"Bad Sector + Contagious Orgasm "Vacuum Pulse"Tender Love "Psy War...

With the release of the Proof of the Shooting box set out now on Self Abuse/Fusty Cunt, we thought it’d be a perfect time to have a conversation with Dan Greenwood, one half of Proof of the Shooting and the man behind the long running Diagram: A. Dan digs back into memories of special packaging assembly, discovering noise in the 90s, recording onto VHS tape and so much more.Pick up the Proof of the Shooting 4xCD box set from Fusty Cunt or Self Abuse RecordsFollow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextra Episode Sponsors:Hospital ProductionsMisanthropic Agenda | Bandcamp(use code NOISEXTRA for free shipping within the USA)

The Pure series strikes again with Knurl "Nervescrap." To-the-point noise from north of the border courtesy of this long running project. Get trashy, get junky, and tear metal to shreds. Will you make it across the border?

Chris Sienko, our most guested guest, returns and brings the deep knowledge on TAC “If it Fits” on Spite. While all being big fans of Spite, none of us were quite familiar with TAC, and Sienko rectifies that with a heap of thoughts and info on this fairly obscure project from the golden era. In addition, Chris breaks down some of his favorite Spite releases.Follow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextra Episode Sponsors:Misanthropic Agenda | Bandcamp(use code NOISEXTRA for free shipping within the USA)Headpress.comBuy one book, get one 50% off!Recent Listening:Altar of Flies "Work Ethics"Noise-Maker's Fifes "Public Frontation"Bad Sector "Plasma"Death Kneel "Adaptive Emotional Use"Various Artists "New ForcesShareholder "The Glass"Scald Hymn "Instance of Home"Alial Straa "Tunnels/Stairwell"Phocomelus "Deus Irae/Crippled Sex"Phocomelus "Hospital for Deviant Sexual Behavior"Phocomelus "Bit of Rough"Phocomelus "Anhedonia"Hive Mind "Awakening Sect"Richard Ramirez "This Angel’s Rusted Halo"

Spit on works of art and stand against nothing at all as we discuss The New Blockaders. This week we present the audio of the first Noisextra video done for the Tusk Festival. We go into the early history of The New Blockaders and relay thoughts on TNB from Ron Lessard, GX Jupiter Larsen, Dominick Fernow, and Chris Sienko.

Break into the Nakamatsu Ironworks Ruins with Einsturzende Neubauten in the classic music film "Halber Mensch." Neubauten has been a gateway band for innumerable noise artists and fans, with this legendary VHS being a huge touchstone.

Ten inches of rusted metal junks eclipse all light with K2 "Anybody Can’t Catch Up With This" on Ant Zen. The material on this record is based on the classic album "The Rust," so we compare both releases and discuss why 10"s are such a great format for noise. Additionally, Tara teaches us about the actual mountain K2.Follow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextraEpisode Sponsors:Misanthropic Agenda | Bandcamp(use code NOISEXTRA for free shipping within the USA)Scream & Writhe / Absurd Exposition(use code NOISEXTRA during Feb. 2021 for 10% off) Recent Listening:MZ.412 "In Nomine Dei Nostri Satanas Luciferi Excelsi"Seed Mouth “Voice of Phlegm”Seed Mouth “Titanic”Skin Graft "Demolition"I-C-K ‎"Les Hémorragies Nihilistes"Smokey Emery "Things Done Changed"ϴ "Void Plan" Inade / Circular "The Saturnine Broadcasting"

Kyle Wright (Diophantine Discs/Dysthymia) joins us for a conversation on the album he always tests a new stereo with—Bad Sector "Polonoid." While we were all familiar with Bad Sector, this album was new to us and we can’t thank Kyle enough for bringing it to the table. We careen to the cosmos, burrow into broken computer technology, and immerse ourselves in this unique beast from the late 90s.Check out the Bad Sector BandcampFollow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextra Episode Sponsors:Misanthropic Agenda | Bandcamp(use code NOISEXTRA for free shipping within the USA)Scream & Writhe / Absurd Exposition(use code NOISEXTRA during Feb. 2021 for 10% off)Live Bait Recording Foundation(use code NEDISCOUNT for 10% off) Recent Listening:Scald Hymn "Instance of Home"Sewer Election "Cosmic Mirror"Hiroshi Hasegawa/Leid-Linie splitGhédalia Tazartès "Diasporas"Bad Sector "Pressurized Music"Bad Sector "Absolute"Spastic Colon "Spastic Colon" The Palladists "Night the Door Opened"Inade/Circular - The Saturnine Broadcasting Tessendalo "Musca"

As we’ve discussed many Drone Records 7"s on Seven Inch Sunday, we thought it’d be a good time to cover the label’s flagship band Maeror Tri and their "Language of Flames and Sound" CD on Old Europa Cafe. Your brain waves may wash ashore on new lands, but the unfamiliar surroundings will prove rewarding.

Everyone is breaking their own rules as we dissect Sickness’ “I Have Become the Disease That Made Me” (2002). We are honored that Chris Goudreau, the man behind the project, agreed to break his own rule and lend his personal perspective to this episode. We are doubly pleased that Erik Hoffman, of Ground Fault Recordings, also agreed to share some of his memories regarding the history of this seminal work. Join us, as we piece together an audio documentary exploring the precision, nuance, and excitation of this classic noise album.Check out Sickness on BandcampPurchase "I Have Become the Disease that Made Me" on BandcampFollow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextraEpisode Sponsor:Scream & Writhe / Absurd Exposition(use code NOISEXTRA during Feb. 2021 for 10% off)Recent Listening:Jeph Jerman "Arcane Facture"Joe Colley "Chapel Action"Propergol "Un Déchaînement De Violence / Cleanshaven"

Another noise history lesson is in session with our guest Mason Jones. From the rising tide of early '90s Japanese noise to the "Japanese American Noise Treaty," Mason was directly involved in shining a spotlight onto the noise underground. His project Trance has a CD of material from 1991 called "Ancient History" out today and you can grab it via the Troniks webstore or the Helicopter webstore.Read Issue 1 of Mason’s magazine "Oganku Otaku" Check out Mason Jones on BandcampFollow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextra

Shane English (L.I.E.S. recording artist/Corporate Park) joins us to talk about Esplendor Geometrico “Mekano Turbo,” one of his all time favorite bands and albums. Esplendor Geometrico’s brand of rhythmic industrial noise sends us to many different settings, from jungles to trains. Shane brings the full force momentum for this important slice of 1980s industrial.Esplendor Geometrico “Mekano Turbo” on BandcampShane English’s Bandcamp: https://senglish.bandcamp.comFollow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/noisextra Recent Listening:Sir Ashleigh Grove "The Nimply Power Sessions vol.
