No One Bull Left Behind
(Krim Kram) CD $13.50
Belfast-born, Swiss-based artist, Stuart McCune expands upon techniques explored in previous releases, offering a wide palette of sounds and compositional approaches. The album opens with what Krim Kram’s grandmother, a lifelong harsh noise aficionado, would have described as an absolute banger, a roaring behemoth of joyous blasting, before subtly shifting gear to more experimental ground. There is a very singular musical quality to each of the tracks, each containing its own distinctive character. And while the album as a whole certainly falls within the harsh noise realm, the lines between noise and musicality are continuously blurred.
