Food World / Clang Quartet : Aeon

Food World / Clang Quartet : Aeon
c20 Split Cassette
Bicephalic Records 2012 - BC007

Food World are the harsh noise / freakout duo of Ryan Lewis (Mr. Stonecipher) and August Traeger (Somnaphon / Nipple Stools). Their side of the tape includes one track that is a high octane screeching nightmare and another track culled from a subdued live performance recorded on 4 July 2011 (US Independence Day) in Wilmington, NC.

Clang Quartet is the one-man Harsh Noise/Percussion/Performance Art show of Scotty Irving. He appears here with his patented harsh noise + percussion combo. Clang Quartet has a few releases on labels such as Hansen, RRRecords and Turgid Animal, but what he is most known for are his amazing live shows, combining harsh noise, frenetic drumming and religious performance art... definitely not to be missed.
