Nuclear Biologist Rocket Surgeons – Better Music Through Research (2008)


  • Avant-prog 
  • Experimental rock 
  • Art rock 
  • RIO 
  • Dada music 
  • Improvised music 
  • Zeuhl 
  • Progressive rock 
  • Leftfield

Comment: this handful of tracks is a frantic result by its compositions, concept and completion. First of all, the most startling effect is that theoretical premises and notes were translated directly into music by employing a special customised programme for it. Musically it chimes like a sequence to a legendary French combo, Magma. An innumerable swarm of turns and dodges throughout the course are clearly remarkable for the listener's pleasure. It can be considered roughly schizoid if it were something but music. And of course, it used to be overwhelmingly playful and amusing giving no fuck to serious cocks. For instance, those overtly bombastic orchestrations and highly pathetic operatic singing cannot be something but done with tongue-in-cheek attitude. Unfortunately the combo dissolved and it is their only issue. You must pay attention to this proggy beast. You have no choice anymore while reading the overview of this divine comedy. But unfortunately being without the cover print (it exists at the site of the release, though).

Radiomaniac – Radiomaniac EP (2017)



  • Shoegaze 
  • Space rock 
  • Indie rock 
  • Alternative rock 
  • Ambient rock 
  • Experimental rock 
  • Avant-rock
  • Ethereal Wave 
  • Dream pop 
  • Post-punk

Comment: Radiomaniac is a combo from Russia and the quartet`s music is vamped up with traditional rock instruments (bass, guitar, the drums) yet their soundscape is remarkably bigger than the set of initial items. It is an instance of spaced-out rock where fascinating murky echoes and powerful delays used to move across the walls and ceilings to destroy them to break on through to the other side. Hovering elements are adeptly intertwined with more powerful yet still captivatingly dreamy sections (for instance, a highlight is Leaving (Покидаем)]. In fact, the words (in Russian) speak in pessimistic tones (about death – all will be dead stated in one song) and escaping across Outer Space yet on the other side it is definitely about life (life comes to all of you in the same track being aforementioned) and love-affirmative. Yin meets yan being a ground for this idiosyncratic issue. I have to admit it is one of the most mind-blowing issues in 2017. The issue is a part of the discography of Mizou Records.

Fugenn & The White Elephants – Lycoris (2010)



  • Nu jazz 
  • Acid jazz 
  • Electronic music 
  • Glitchtronica 
  • Alternative 
  • Mood music 
  • Experimental pop

Comment: it starts off with a mellow nu jazz/acid jazz progression to progress partly in other direction. More profoundly, you can be witness to glitched-out electronica, droning electricity yet at the same time preserving its sublime, poppy touch. This issue is a fascinating example of how once peripheral (and the very sounds of noise music) sounds are integrated into something which can be considered highly pleasant to one's ear and soul. Yet there is much time to go to get a world where such sort of music could be mainstream music. The 5-track outing is a bit of the discography of Hz-Records. Top tier.
