PSYWARFARE – LIVE @ F.L.A.W. FEST

Cassette, https://alphamorzel.bandcamp.com/

A festival in Cleveland once carried the name Final Live Audio War. October 11th and 12th last year, to be exact. And holy shit, what a party that must have been. Artists performing were (amongst others) Psywarfare, Kakerlak, Skin Graft, Aaron Dilloway, Knifedoutofexistence, The Rita, Parasite Nurse and Black Leather Jesus. Earplugs were to be taken care of I think. In honour of this festival, they released a double cassette which is long sold out, but the download is still available on Bandcamp (https://flawfest.bandcamp.com/).

Psywarfare, existing of Dwid Hellion, Steve Meketa, and it seems one more person, played live. That set, which lasted just over 10 minutes, was so powerful it was put to tape by Alpha Morzel, the new label from Belgium. Instruments mentioned are vocals, WASP, electronics, power tools and more WASP (or the same one). Musically, I know proper noise performances: You have emotions (preferably anger and despair), and you clean your body by letting as much as possible out in as short as possible period. That is how it’s done and what you can expect from this cassette. Emotions that are pure, honest, loud, painful, harsh and unfiltered (except for the WASP). I wish I could have been there.
