Who is Noise Hangover? And why is this project named after the ‘not so fun’ state after too much drinking? It’s not bad at all! Actually, I kinda like it. So yeah, another few 3″ CDs of Inner Demons Records are getting reviewed in this week’s Vital and “The End of Everything” by Noise Hangover is the first. Two tracks of about nine minutes of loads of feedback and noises create a not-so-subtle pain you have to listen to. It seems like a minimal crunchy setup going into a looped / feedback circuited some nice textures are being created.
“No future” has a lot of incoherent structures over a constant square wave drone, and for the noizn00b, not much is happening, but at a certain point, I even got lost in the difference of origin of the sounds. What is feedback, what is the source, what is happening, where and more critical why … The track end is a state of ‘no future’ indeed. Everything has happened already, so the ending is the actual part where the future has been cancelled, and all machines slowly wind down. The second track, ‘The End of Everything’, is a loud, in-your-face HNW with a few breaks and moments of not clarity but destruction. It’s a straightforward production; all sounds are strong in the panorama and have their spot in the composition.
So the question with which we started is still a puzzle. Bandcamp says it’s an artist from South Korea, and this is definitely NOT a state of hangover; it’s the thrill of being drunk, if any. I suspect the hangover will start when this one stops playing and the silence hits.
