Interlard - Gland (2011)



9.3

/Noise rock, Harsh noise, Experimental rock, Crust punk, Avant-rock, Non-music, Screamo, Goregrind/ 

Comment: Interlard, the Birmingham, UK-based musical project is undoubtedly one of the most extreme collectives in Europe. Over years they have practiced grind-ish, soil-eating noise rock (gore metal) which is full of flourishing power and suggestive impetus/ultra heavy thudding or just being more inflected toward instances of unambiguous harsh noise. More concretely, the ensemble can be compared with the likes of Black Dice, Black Pus, and The Lightning Bolt.  Gland includes 4 tracks (or, say, foreign bodies by their contrasts to the whole of pop music) which are deliberately slow-paced, suggestively repetitive ones which at times are accompanied by desperate shouts (Put to Sleep) or used to swivel around an example of grained harsh noise (Doubloons Aren`t Round).
