Overload & Eroticism Q&A

Author Thomas Moore joins us for a great conversation. Many of his novels have been published by Amphetamine Sulfate, including his newest book “Your Dreams.” We get into the many subjects of his writings…cruising, dreams, language and more. Thomas has been orbiting and into noise for many years and we attempt to connect the dots throughout this episode. For the ExtraNoisextra on the patreon, Thomas has provided some out of print writing for patrons to read.

Greh and Mike sit down for a loose conversation covering many topics including the recent release of "Pyschopathia Sexualis," the movie "Ratcatcher," the new Cleanse tape, recent listening and more.  For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, Greh made a mix of some of his recent listening. This mix immediately follows the episode on the patreon feed.

Today is the day all wet dreams come true. Eroticism and Overload are releasing their full length albums as the first two CDs on Initiation Services. This episode is a brief Q and A between the two, commemorating this historic day of pleasure. For the ExtraNOISEXTRA segment on the patreon, the track "Kill to Fuck" by Overload and the track "Rounding up Ants" by Eroticism are posted following the Q and A. Overload "Manson City" and Eroticism "Willpower" will be available today at 3pm EST/Noon PST at initiationservices.bandcamp.com or initiationservices.com

We found ourselves in the empty dark alleyways of early '80s NYC with Stuart Argabright and Michael Diekmann of the legendary Ike Yard. Stuart and Michael take us through their entire history up to today. We also get into Stuart’s band Black Rain, his work with William Gibson, and plenty more. Ike Yard sits in a unique and strange place in the dark underground, and this discussion keeps the paranoia alive. For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, we get into what Ike Yard was like live in the early 80s as well as the process of reforming the band in the 2000s. This segment is in the middle of the episode on the patreon feed.

Iggor Cavalera (Sepultura, Cavalera Conspiracy) joins us for an incredible discussion. Iggor provided the perfect DJ set throughout Day 1 of the NWN/Hospital Fest, capturing the spirit of what the festival was all about. We go into his history from starting Sepultura as a 13 year old in Brazil, to playing with Boredoms in Japan, to collaborating with Prurient and Power Trip, to his current noise explorations and tons more. Iggor has carried the torch of the underground since the early 80s and the flame still burns! For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, Iggor talks about his gear, field recording in the Amazon, record shopping with Merzbow in Japan and more. This 20 minute segment is in the middle of the episode on the patreon feed.

This week we go “Over the Head of Persons” with Seed Mouth. Greh recently came across a copy of the original cassette, propelling us to dive into this classic 1991 release. Seed Mouth exists in its own world and it’s never a bad time to enter the Seed atmosphere.For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the Patreon, Mike hits record for 30 minutes for an in-the-moment monologue talking about memories from 20 years ago. Gnarly van breakdowns, touring, shows and more are all part of this extra segment.

It’s another magazine episode as we take a look at "Audio Drudge" #7. This issue was picked partly for its accessibility, but also because of the Caul tapes that Greh scored in Japan. In addition to Caul, this issue has interviews with Allegory Chapel Ltd, Contrastate, a section on VHS, and plenty of reviews. It’s always a pleasure looking to the past via printed matter. For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, Greh tells us about setting up his new studio. He goes over his plans, purchases and much more.

The Connellys scored a copy of "Bring on the Shits" on Bandaged Hand Produce while in Japan thanks to Greh and we wanted to go over this classic 1995 cassette comp for today'’'s episode. An absolute stand out 90s compilation, this one brings together artists from disparate corners of the noise world and places them within the Bandage Hand universe. The results are stunning. Mlehst himself supplied us with thoughts and info and we relay them throughout our talk. For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon we are putting up the entire first episode of Live Crashing Headfolds. Two hours of a brand new stellar noise radio show!

We have returned! Back from Japan and full of excitement as we recap our entire time at the NWN/Hospital Productions Japan Fest. From the sets to the atmosphere to the country itself, this is a jam-packed episode stacked to the brim. Support the underground and support noise!! For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, we go over all the other things we did in Japan such as wrestling, Trader Vic's, Godzilla's head, and much more! 30 minutes worth of tales!

We wanted to do one more episode before heading across the ocean, so we answered more listener questions. Japanese noise, Cold Meat Industry, sample gathering and much more are discussed today. For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, we answer more questions for about 20 extra minutes.
