Comment: Discontinuation Of Treatment, the
combo from Italy, represents a cutting-edge vision and format and
natural thought of post-punk music for the pleasure of genuine
melomans. Differently from punk as the stemming genre post-punk as
the branching movement (but catalysed by krautrock) was determined to keep changing by embracing
different styles, unconventional rock instruments, an unlimited bunch
of more or less frantic ideas. This whole of 10 pieces starts off
with clear-cut yet majestic reverberant guitar-induced patterns full
of longing and dreams being supported by heavy drumming and bold bass
lines as something as very well-known being once created by Peter
Hook, and Michael Dempsey. At times it turns into a bit more
electronic mould thanks to fast beat of a drum machine. However, it
is a case of new wave which arguably started off with
Love Will
Tear Us Apart by Joy Division (I do not agree with it, though,
because it was being quite far away from the light-hearted
synthesised music of the 80s New Order would embark on). The crucial
turns as immanent appearances of the genre are represented through a
jungle of exaggerated glitches, digitally bent noises and uncanny
iterative algorithmic emergents, littered spoken word snippets which
eventually will be externalised as a sort of radiophonic art within a
post-punk case. And these freaks may be vile and diabolic as if the main antagonist Killer BOB at Twin Peaks who gets fed up by his victim`s pain and sorrow. For someone
I guess it may sound as analogous as seeing confused freaks at a
distance. Like Leland Palmer at Twin Peaks. Listen to the ominous final track
She Felt Deep Down tif you did not get the idea yet
. The spellbinding outing is a part in the discography of
GufoRecords.
