Big Hole - I Don't Want To Save The World [Listen Loudly - 2015]Here we have a short, but brutally sweet 3inc walled noise CDR from this Denton Texas based HNW project. The hand written CDR comes in a mini clear plastic sleeve, which features a single folded inlay. This features on it’s front a blurred black & white picture (that’s either a close-up of a scab & hair, or a weird/bleack sky scape). And on it’s back text about the track( it apparently started off as part of 1000 member HNW Facebook comp) & the project. The single track on offer here comes in at the 14.15, and it opens with a minute or two dialogue sample from the USA’s laureate of American lowlife Charles Bukowski. When the ‘wall’ bursts in, it’s a dense, speedy, and intense mix of the following elements: A shredding ‘n’ churning mid, A muffled locked rumbling, and a hissing & rolling track like continuum. These elements are tightly weaved together to create a truly impenetrable mass of tense, tight, and total overwhelming walled noise- which is both textural rewarding in it’s detail & urgent in it’s searing nihilism. All in all this is a most effective slice of shorter walled noise, and the people hating dialogue sample from Bukowski fits the ‘wall’ perfectly. Roger Batty
