Yellow Green Red on Locrian "Territories"
Locrian /Territories/ LP (At War With False Noise / Basses Frequencies / BloodLust! / Small Doses)
If it takes four record labels to put out one album, so be it, so long as it’s as nicely produced as Locrian’s /Territories/. Continuing in the spirit of cooperation, this one features a number of guest players, including none other than BLOODYMINDED’s Mark Solotroff on vocals and synthesizer, the type of collaboration any Chicago-based freak would envy. Speaking of synths, /Territories/ has a lot of them, practically dominating the landscape where metallic guitars once reigned. There are still some fierce black metal guitar riffs here, which make for a nice balance, but my money’s on the synth-drone mood pieces; there might be just a little too much china cymbal for my tastes on the thrashing metal tracks. Their metalwork here is better than I am recalling, it’s just that when a track is credited to Solotroff’s synth and vocals, a bass guitar and another synthesizer, how can anything top that?
True Norwegian Abyss

As I have still been playing the new Serena-Maneesh album - "SM 2: Abyss in B Minor" - to death lately, I was more than pleased to see/hear them again, last night, at the Bottom Lounge. Beyond thew Medicine/Amnesia/My Bloody Valentine thing, the "XTRMNTR" aspects of the new album came through even more in the live setting. Guitar as chilled molasses. Beautiful stuff. Nice to hang out with Mr. Jendon there, too. It could have been even louder, for all I care, but maybe my ringing ears say otherwise...
