Label: Freak Animal Records

Freak Animalからは2013年にカセット音源を発表、それを含めいくつかの小さいリリースをフィンランドで行ってきたパワエレユニットContortusによる、CD & カセットの2フォーマットで制作された1stアルバム[Violence In Heat]。RotatやH.Ö.H.然り、ここが発掘する自国の作家は本当に粒揃いで驚かされます。



The new breed of Finnish Noise artists! Contortus has shown its existence in the form of a couple of small tape releases and a couple of live gigs. This debut album sets all things into new levels. You can expect the vile and aggressive force known from many Finnish power electronics / industrial-noise projects, but Contortus has their very own style. Besides sheer brutality and forceful vocal assaults, the sounds themselves are crafted with the utmost care. Each track stands out with distinctive composition and texture. Usage of acoustics, electronics, hammering industrial rhythms, brooding synths, piercing feedback and so on, is done with a personal touch and serious commitment to create a noteworthy album.
