NIF FANZINE REVIEWS HUMAN TERATOGEN / VESTIGIAL LIMB SPLIT CS


from the upcoming issue of the NEGATION IS FREEDOM fanzine...

"HUMAN TERATOGEN/VESTIGIAL LIMB C-28 (GRIMEOLOGY)
A split between two projects I hadn't even heard of prior to receiving this. Human Teratogen (who I kept thinking was Human Tetragon) from Massachusetts and Vestigial Limb from Kentucky. Human Teratogen plays mudded down harsh waves of sound over the aural equivalent of a steam locomotive. It some how gains momentum while gruelly climbing up hill. There is no real direction in this track, but it has progression, and that's really what is important. Nothing bothers me more than stagnant noise that just sits there to fester in its own sonic feces. Vestigial Limb follows in suit. Sloppy underlying deep noise with a forward momentum keeping it afloat. Tapes and a record player are also used, but hidden under the guise of object amplification/destruction. High end shrieks make an occasional cameo within the track. Hats off to Grimeology to being one of the few tape labels who is smart enough to dub their tapes loud as fuck.
