NO-Y-Z – “SHEER ELECTRONIC DIN” (1983)
Here’s one I’ve plucked from the awe-inspiring Mutant Sounds pile. I must’ve downloaded this a few years ago, and only gotten around to listening to it now. Apparently, this is a side project from the bass player of L.A. goth-tinged post-pun band 45 Grave (which featured Germs drummer Don Bolles).
This one’s a scorching slab of freaky-deaky, criss-crossing from psych to punk to skronk, from muttering to pure unadulterated shrieking!
Listened to the whole thing this morning. The first track is my favourite…”What are the last three letters of the alphabet?” “Why, XYZ!” “No…Y Z!” DINNNNNNN!
I’m only just now starting to put this in heavy rotation after downloading it forever ago, and it is effing amazing.
oh wow, this is amazing so far, this might end up on a college radio station if I actually get some ambition and apply to be on it
So 1980′s, but still so good! Brings back memories. Like this? Check out negativland as well.
