Molekular Terrorism
(Pure) Used CD $12.00
This “electroacoustic noise college,” promises Rate Your Music, is “a step above … average…, without a doubt.” KFJC is even more effusive, referring to this 1996 discs as a “necropolis that never sleeps and never shuts the fuck up, blowing hot farts of scrap metal out of its torn asshole at all of hours of the night.

He avoids synthesizers digital sounds, instead using found objects such as fan blades, typewriters, scrap metal and car springs to create music that is completely devoid of rhythm, melody, vocals, and production quality.”
