Dragon Flight Recordings
It's already the 8th release on Dragon Flight Recordings and before getting into the music (as everybody always reads the first lines of a review) it must be said that with this release Dragon Flight Recordings put itself on the big list of labels to keep into your little black book of Loved Ones. Some of the discs before this one (Monstrare, Vedisni, LS-TTL) already proved to be little jewels, but you can easily enclose this one in your yearlists.
Lockweld's music is in the biography described as dark power electronics to which only Merzbow, Aube and Masonna can cope. If you combine these three acts with Soldnergeist and Anenzephalia (especially the last one) you have an idea on what you can expect. Indeed the dark droning analog sounds, vocals of husband and wife (who are in this together) and re:worked samples from "devices of limited destruction" as there are power sanders and electric saws.
The CD contains 15 tracks and almost an hour worth of music (59:19). Illustrious titles as 'We are all sheep', 'Dissipated existence' and 'A reading, a Teaching and a Jihad' already reveal some of the submissive atmospheres this CD has. The 'Industrial Requiem' is about anger, aggression but mostly about closure; Sitting on the patio with a six-pack and thinking about all things good and evil.
It's only a matter of waiting, but I would personally love to see these folks at the next 'Deadly Actions' in Lille.
