Sete Star Sept – Gero Me

http://www.discogs.com/Sete-Star-Sept-Gero-Me/release/3502525

I have a huge love for 7S7. And especially Gero Me. But I never got around to buy it. I know I’m going to at some point, but for now, I have to make do with the digital version. Bus as I’m deeply addicted to it, I thought I’d make a new sub-blog about records I’d like to own.

This is an intense motherfucker of a record. Short spastic noisy songs, all in Sete Star Sept’s trademark bass/drum/vocal-assault style. It was the first thing I ever heard from them, and that listen spawned an expensive habit of collecting their records, no easy task! Discogs currently have 70(!) releases listed, and I have 13 of these… I have had a little communication with the band about a possible split with my own band, but they politely declined. I haven’t given up hope yet though. They have been a huge revitalizing factor in the shaping of the sound of my band, especially the songs on Gero Me and Visceral Tavern (discussed elsewhere on this blog).

Not much more to say, but
This is a record I want…

Sore Throat – Unhindered By Talent

Three Seconds Long!!! This is the lp that really defined the micro-song as a valid and beautiful genre for me. The amount of noisy drunken fun on display here is overwhelming.

“Out of tunes guitars, with broken strings, unintelligable growls, and smashed drum sticks. Unhindered by talent, but we don’t give a fuck, if you don’t fucking like it, then tough fucking luck.”

There is so much spite and venom in the lyrics, I remember being a crusty peacepunk being shocked at the anger towards D.R.I. and other bands. I just wanted everybody to be happy…

The Molecatcher and A Bow To Capital makes for well deserved breathers in all the great feedbacky racket. Both unusual but great. I still need to know more about Pete Pax.
