      So is this the new album on Ipecac? How is it??

      I'm currently listening to the sound of tinnitus after seeing Merzbow and Whitehouse [among others] tonight....both of them were pathetic.

        This comes to little surprise. I saw Whitehouse a few years ago, and they were really mediocre. Now, I might go still go to see Merzbow if I get the chance, but last time they played over here was indeed with Whitehouse, which definitely prevented me from paying something like 20 Euro to see him. And as far as I was told, I was right to do so.

          I quite like some of his stuff on CD, but live he completely failed to excite. I was expecting something crushing and brutal, but his set was very wishy-washy - I could have enjoyed some more ambient material from him, but despite its calmness, he really didn't do anything with the extra dynamics it afforded him. The fact he sat looking completely bored the whole time spoke volumes as well.

          It was part of an all-day electronica festival, though, so the ticket price was not totally wasted...although the comedy value of Whitehouse was perhaps worth it! It was a bit like watching your dad and one of his mates get drunk and start shouting abuse at people.
