Death Ceremonies (CSR283LP)

by Controlled Death / Rudolf Eb.er

supported by

Cody Drasser A Gollum-like ghoul prances around the charnel grounds, molesting long dead corpses, reveling in rot and playing a malevolent tune on a broken fiddle. Dried viscera and maggot-filled skulls make the fiend's mouth water and genitals quiver. Fires and nuclear explosions rage in the distance as the graveyard creep continues to take advantage of the hastily exhumed. All of this is captured on a barely functioning tape recorder. True Death Ambient perfection.

William Nichols incredibly pleasing for something so discordant. corporeal and spectral at the same time.

about

"Death Ceremonies" is the darkest, most primitive death industrial record, soaked throughout with the smell of rotting corpses and burning bodies.

Controlled Death (MASONNA) features Yamazaki's most compulsive Korg MS-20 drones and obsessive, disturbing vocals, drenched with anxiety and alienation. Dense atmospheres of doom, death and decay build up just to break away in deep paranoia. Rudolf Eb.er (SCHIMPFLUCH) scratches a near-dead violin over horrifying synth tones, celebrating obscure forest rituals, unearthing an archaic actionism and long forgotten witchery - decomposing his raw sounds on dusty magnetic tape.

Maso Yamazaki (best known for his extreme Japanoise project Masonna) and Rudolf Eb.er (Swiss noise-actionists of the legendary Schimpfluch circle) collaborated live and in the studio multiple times during the mid and late 90's. Both based in Osaka, Japan, a spontaneous meeting brought up their mutual interest in degraded and primitive black metal. Discussing their own latest black brews of sinister side projects gave birth to the idea of the "Death Ceremonies" LP.

Ltd x 400 copies on 180gm vinyl in a 350gsm sleeve.

Reviews:

"[Rudolf eb.er] plays a very ritualistic, and violin oriented form of death industrial... field recordings and some stringed instruments gives the music more of an avant garde feeling. The grim spoken word parts also add in touches of black metal and also gives the songs more of a eastern style occult and ritualistic atmosphere... [Controlled Death] plays a primitive mixture of death industrial and Japanese noise... At times the music also brings in the brutal side of death industrial along with some demonic sounding growls and screams... Avant garde and lo-fi orientated soundscapes are also brought into some parts... more diverse as the album progresses and the production also sounds very dark... a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of death industrial" (8/10, DarkUndergroundMusicZine)

I cannot praise this album enough. This album is absolutely terrifying! The many starts and stops creates this very h settling tension. Each start expands on the stopper idea previously. It’s like the music equivalent of walking through thick fog while passing out multiple times throughout trying to find a place to orientate yourself. There may or may not be something sinister in that fog, but you don’t want to stick around to find out. Bought the vinyl so I summon the fog demons through spe showhornwithteeth

I can't believe a Maso Yamazaki project would be languid, but here we are. More for fans of meditative noise (?) than the paranoid outbursts of his main project. Not for me. 通り魔
