Alo Girl - The Torture Chamber Of Mr. Sadism [Toxic Industries - 2010]

The Torture Chamber Of Mr. Sadism” finds the always worthwhile and brutally creative Italian HNW/ Harsh noise project Alo Girl (which  is of course is all the work of Italian  based Cristiano Renzoni- whose also the other half of Richard  An Innocent Young Throat-Cutter & runs of the great Urashima label) offer up two tracks and forty two minutes worth of thick ‘n’ truly tortures HNW matter.

The album opens with the first, relatively short and untitled track that comes in at just under the three minute mark. The track   finds Renzoni firing out a thick and crusty static bound ‘wall’ that’s build from a revolving wheel like judder that’s underfeed by this smaller and different paced static spin ‘n’ twirl. 

The second untitled track here takes up the lions share of the release, and clocks in at just under the thirty nine minute mark. The track starts out as quite a mid-pace to faster rolling ‘n’ hissing wall of sound that feels like a mixture between a rapid and persistent roasting, and descending water rush- with a constant line of muffled locked judder running through it. At just over the eleven minute mark a more heavy rain on plastic roof static feel moves into make the track suddenly feel a lot more pressing, tense and airless. Then at the twenty minute mark it opens up once more with a more distinctive and  stuck water rushing tone again. The rest of the track remains pretty much in this last switch, & on the whole it makes for a very moorish and urgent slice of wall making.

So “The Torture Chamber Of Mr. Sadism” is another very rewarding yet highly brutal and total unforgiving  slice of well thougt-out and executed HNW making from this premier grade Italian project
