about

The "latest Merzbow" has been successfully crystallized and generated as a new album work. To summarize all of his past activities and sounds at once, and to create an "essential" noise/music. In "kaoscitron," the rhythms and sensuality of the noise that resounded at the end of such a reset have indeed been generated.
This album, "kaoscitron", is full of Merzbow's current noise and sound. The title track, "kaoscitron," is sandwiched between the album's opening track, "622," and a 26-minute analog noise pulse track "flamingo cloud". Please pay attention to the title track "kaoscitron" first. It has a dirty beat that is somewhat hip-hop and industrial, and the dry texture of the sound is wonderful. Incidentally, the beat/rhythm is also an important motif in Merzbow's (hidden?) work, and "kaoscitron" is the latest example. I'm sure there are a lot of "Merzbeat" enthusiasts out there, so this is a long-awaited track. There are no more words to describe the burst of electronic analog noise in "flamingo cloud". The intense noise acoustics that seem to evaporate the individual can only be described as pleasurable and pleasant.

While still sounding harsh a lot of the time, this will not obliterate you like other Merzbow releases. Steady elements give a noob like me something to cling to amidst the chaos. Hans

Easily one of my favourite Merzbow records and one of my favourite noise records in general. Expertly crafted and blisteringly hot sonically, it's definitely not one to miss. heckicus_doomicus_wizardus
