Bastard Noise
Bastard Noise is an American noise band founded in 1991 by musicians Eric Wood, Henry Barnes, and W. T. Nelson.
The project started as a type of sister band to the trio's previous group Man Is The Bastard.
While Man
Is the Bastard broke- up in late 1997, the Bastard Noise project continued and acts as Wood's current project.
Early recordings from the group's extensive discography were mostly self- released and predominately featured only electronics and vocals.
Since its formation, however, Bastard Noise has made releases with underground labels such as Three One G, Relapse Records, Gravity Records, Deep Six, Vermiform Records, Robotic Empire, among others.
For live performances, Wood often recruits other musicians to perform with him, the likes of which have included Merzbow, Justin Pearson and Keiji Haino.
Instruments such as the bass guitar and the drum kit were later incorporated down the band's history.
Wood has expressed distaste for digital piracy and prefers to release his music elusively on physical formats, although he has made few digital- only releases in the past.
Angst (band)
Angst was an American band from San Francisco, California.
In mid-1978, brothers Joseph Pope and Jon E. Risk formed their first punk rock group, the Instants, in Boulder, Colorado.
The band gigged in the Denver/ Boulder area before moving to England in late 1979 where they lasted only a few months.
In 1980 Joseph and Jon then settled in San Francisco and formed Angst along with drummer Michael Hursey( later replaced by Andy Kaps).
Angst played their first show in mid-1981, and by the end of 1982 had contributed songs to Sub Pop( when it was still a cassette magazine) and the Alternative Tentacles/ Maximum Rockn Roll compilation," Not So Quiet on the Western Front".
From the outset the band gigged regularly in San Francisco and Los Angeles, and sometime in 1982 they played a show with the Middle Class and 100 Flowers in San Francisco.
John Talley- Jones( Urinals/ 100 Flowers) was impressed enough with the group that he offered to release a record for them on his label, Happy Squid Records.
Angst traveled to Los Angeles shortly thereafter and recorded seven songs at Radio Tokyo studios( engineered by Ethan James) that would become their debut, eponymous 12 ”, released in 1983.
Though Angst played many venues with a wide variety of bands, the majority of their shows locally were within the punk/ hardcore scene.
Their eclectic mix of punk, country, pop, 1960s garage, etc. was not particularly well received by the strict hardcore audiences of early 1980s San Francisco.
Angst actively sought out and played with many of Los Angeles- based SST Records ’ bands( Minutemen, Saccharine Trust, Meat Puppets, Black Flag, et al.), and in 1984 was signed to the label by Joe Carducci, who subsequently produced the first two( of four) LPs that Angst recorded for the label( the latter LPs were produced by Vitus Matare of the Last).
After releasing their debut LP" Lite Life" in 1985, Angst began to play outside of California, and embarked on their first national tour.
Over the next four years they toured America and Europe several times, as well as continuing to play regularly in the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles, though they were never able to gain any kind of following in their own home town.
By early 1989 the band had run its course, and broke up after their final European tour.
In later years, Angst would be cited by Black Francis/ Frank Black of Pixies fame as a major influence upon his work.
He covered “ Some Things( I Ca n’t Get Used To) ” on his" Snake Oil" LP, and wrote a tribute song to the band entitled simply “ Angst ” that appears on the UK- only CD release of “ Robert Onion ” as well as on the" One More Road For The Hit" collection of B-sides and rarities.
When asked by Rolling Stone magazine what band he would like to see reunite, he stated: “ Angst.
I'm sure there are other bands called Angst, but this is an obscure one from SST in the mid-Eighties.
They used to play at the Rathskeller in Boston -- that's where I first heard them.
Then I bought all their records.
They were a San Francisco trio -- high energy but not punk -- and they were very influential on the Pixies and on me.
" Lite Life" is their best album -- good luck finding it ”.
