Noisextra - The Noise Podcast.

We were thrilled to have our guest Jay Howard of Circuit Wound bring his copy of Thirdorgan "Pessimistic Cyborg" to the Noisextra studio and proceed to shred our mechanical insides. The whole crew is left numb and dazed, but wanting more. We also dug up a very rare interview with Akihiro Shimizu and relay some of what he had to say. So ahead of the curve, there is no better time to dive head first into Thirdorgan.

We are joined by Chris Sienko of As Loud As Possible magazine to discuss the legendary Emil Beaulieau "Anti Performance" cassette from 1991. After having been mentioned on nearly every Noisextra episode, we finally devote an entire episode to the "greatest living noise artist." Chris dug in extensively to which anti-record is being played when as well as the history behind each record. We also discuss visiting RRR, and all try our own versions of Beaulieau’s dance moves. Straighten your tie, sharpen your record needle, and destroy all music.

Chris Groves of Cipher Productions and Night Science magazine stops by the Noisextra studio and we chat about putting together a magazine, running a label, early adventures in discovering noise, particularly in his homeland of Tasmania.

We are joined by Ryan Martin of Dais Records, Robert & Leopold & Copley Medal to discuss Runzelstirn & Gurgelstøck’s “Asshole/Snail Dilemma.” Ryan is writing a book on R&G and the entire Schimpfluch Gruppe, so we couldn’t have had a better person to dig into this album. We cover the early days as well as the era that this CD is a part of. Pull up a plate of spaghetti and wash your brains with Runzelstirn & Gurgelstøck.

The time has come for us to take on one of the greatest works of the 20th century, Con-Dom’s “The Eighth Pillar : A Confession Of Faith.” We dive deep, not only into the album and the work of Mike Dando, but also into the life of the man that inspired the album, T.E. Lawrence, as well as his monumental book “The Seven Pillars of Wisdom.” Let us walk in the way of insight.

Friend of the podcast G.X. Jupitter-Larsen is making a new movie called “Reference Desk” and has started a fundraiser to get it made. One of the perks is this brand new collaboration tape between GX and PAINJERK. Do you like the sounds of pumps, book pages and electronic stabs? Of course you do. Head over to igg.me/at/rdesk to support the movie and grab this cassette—the first cassette on Noiseoploy.

G.X. Jupitter-Larsen returns for a third time to discuss the work of Manon Anne Gillis, and specifically her album “Euragine.” He gives insight to her art and performances, as well as his collaboration with her. We are all thrilled to walk around in the sonic world that Anne Gillis creates. The

We’re back in Pure-land and back in Italy for Murder Corporation’s “New Crimes” CD. Culled from an insanely limited 8 tape box set, the CD represents a  perfectly distilled version of a staggering piece of work. Moreno Daldosso, the man behind Murder Corporation, was kind enough to answers some questions that we sent him, and we relay his answers throughout the episode. Open the vents and let the death wind in. 

David Reed of Envenomist joins is to discuss “Cold Summer” by Mick Harris’s void ambient project Lull. We go many places with this hauntingly staggering album, from the artificial jungle to the sanctum just out of reach. David also discusses some of his recent work, as well as his early days getting into noise. Find your isolation shelter and fall slowly into Lull.

We couldn’t have been more excited to sit down with Andy Bolus aka Evil Moisture. Andy has been going strong since 1990 and we cover a lot about his early days and early releases. We also touch on what dreams are to us, as well as Greh’s fantastic cocktails. Another noise history lesson is in session.

Today we bring you one of our favorite episodes, culled from the Noisextra Patreon. You can see how we do it over there, and hear the Noisextra crew get terrified with this stand out split 7” from Mlehst/Brume on Bandaged Hand Produce. Richard Chase, walking into the wrong house, favorite vampire movies, and sleep masks are all part of the discussion of this truly dark 7”. We've got something in store for later this week, so keep your ears peeled. Follow us on Instagram: @noisextraFollow us on Twitter: @noisextraaaSupport us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/noisextra/

This week we wander into cathedral ritual practices with Fatal Impact’s “Satan For Ever” cassette from 1991. We get deep with warped organ, chanting layers and lactating statues. A true cassette artifact that is begging to be played at your next ceremony. Satan For Ever.

We are starting 2020 with a very special interview with Seymour Glass of Bananafish Magazine. We discuss the history of Bananafish and Seymour’s time in the noise trenches. He gives us anecdotes of interviews, people he worked with, and the process of putting an issue together. Another noise history lesson is in session. Tardiness will not be excused.

Noisextra went on location at the Hospital Productions Fest on Dec 7th in NYC. We got in the thick of it and talked with Richard Ramirez, Jim Haras, Jim Mroz, Kris Lapke and more. This episode contains all the evidence we collected in the wild.

Merry Christmas Eve with special bonus episode of the Connellys’ Hometime series. Normally a weekly Patreon-only series, Mike and Tara wanted to spend their favorite holiday with the entire Noisextra family. Sit by the Yuletide fire as they discuss their favorite Christmas themed noise, horror movies, and the spirit of Christmas.

Our second interview from the Hospital Fest weekend is with Jilla of Moonbeam Terror and Autoerotichrist. The discussion goes deep when talking about her music and art and pivots to hilarity when talking about beans and Wisconsin. Her album "Comfort Knife" was one of our favorites of the year and her set at Hospital Fest was visceral magic. Put on your chain mail and watch out for sharp corners.

It was an honor to talk with one of our favorite bands, Smell & Quim. A great history lesson, we go from off the wall Quim-ness to earnest chats about the early days, costumes throughout time and baking bread. Hear Tara predict the props used the following night. Head Dave describe what "the English Method" is. Hear a great talk with one of the all-time legends. And remember, "life's too short not to bake your own bread."

Surprise! We are back a day before the Hospital Fest with a very special bonus episode. Did you know there was an unreleased Painjerk album from the '90s? Neither did we, but here it is! Easily the most exciting noise release of 2019, Painjerk’s “Mission Invisible : Kill the Poor” on Hospital Productions is here to scorch the earth and begin anew. Spoiler alert: we absolutely worship this album. In addition, Kohei Gomi sent us some great information on this unreleased masterpiece that we share throughout the episode. Curl up, huddle up and get ready to be overwhelmed by pure and perfect Painjerk sound experimentation.

As the the first year of Noisextra winds down, we thought we’d discuss some of our favorite albums and sets of the year. It’s been an excellent year for noise and it was hard to whittle our lists down, but each of us came with our personal stand outs of 2019. We cannot wait for many more years of noise listening and noise talking. Thank you all for listening, to us and to noise.

Skies are blackening as we sit down to discuss Daniel Menche’s “Field of Skin.” Sandstorms, pools of mercury and 1800s apocalypse scenes all cross our path while we wander through the field of skin. Head on into the grain silo with us and this magnificent album.
