Merzbow

BBC Radio 6 Music - Stuart Maconie's Freak Zone, Merzbow

Stuart's featured album is Tauromachine by illustrious Japanese noise-maker Merzbow.

Stuart Maconie's featured album is Tauromachine, the most digestible offering from illustrious Japanese noise-maker Merzbow.

Stuart chooses a featured album by the illustrious Japanese noise maker Merzbow. Known for creating 70-minute juggernauts of harsh feedback and chaos, Tauromachine is Merzbow's most digestible album. Captivating swirls of white hot noise and violent low end appear in short palatable chunks, just enough to engross and develop without the nose-bleeding length of his more typical records. With a back catalogue of over 250 studio albums, Tauromachine is an entry point for those wishing to dip their toes into the dark sound bath of Japanese noise music.
