hazy nostalgia of feeling so sad and yet so happy
ES: Volume 3 Discography (2.1 GB)
Release date: 2023-2024
Genre: Noise, harsh noise, plunderphonics
Notes: Largely fandom- and internet-inspired noise and experimental. Quite an odd project, and very prone to self-deletion (I don't how much, if any, remains online elsewhere.)
My Lovely Figment - Lost Rehearsal June 4th 2010
Release date: 2010
Genre: Drone noise
Notes: Very distinctly non-harsh, almost organic noise session. It feels like a heavy blanket on a cold day, or like mushroom and lichen growing in rainy underbrush in the woods. (At least to me; who knows what associations it might conjure up for you.)
Vomir - Future Dust
Release date: March 2024
Genre: HNW
Notes: The HNW master does it again; thank you Lamo for the rip. You basically know what you're getting here if you've heard Vomir before.
oh, the burden of living. - please love me, i crave your affection.
Release date: 2023
Genre: Harsh noise (wall)
Notes: Lonely, desperate noise cries for help. Tender like a hug or an open wound.
Celebrity Appreciation Society - Selected Case Studies Volume 1 - Loss of Innocence
Release date: February 1st, 2016
Genre: Power electronics
Notes: "The CELEBRITY APPRECIATION SOCIETY (C.A.S.) is interested in exploring the obsession developed by large groups of people for public characters. Actors and actresses, models and singers, starlets and porn stars, historical characters and victims of heinous crimes: whenever a human being reaches the limelight, hordes of fans will develop questionable urges that can turn admiration into sexual obsession that often leads to trolling and stalking activities."
Wall Riders - Documents 1, 2
Release date: 2007
Genre: HNW
Notes: One of my favorite covers to date and a fine example of early(ish) limited-edition tape exclusive walls. The second part of side A is wall perfection IMO.
GIGA DRILL BREAKER - DELIRIUM
Release date: 2017
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: I wish I knew what molecule that was. Side project of mashcore artist THM. Heavy use of panning, like each ear is listening to a half of a longer session doubled over itself. A weird and overloading approach to the genre.
GIGA DRILL BREAKER - TENSION
Release date: 2017
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: SCREEEEEECHING. A machine that won't stop screaming.
ltmrs - Floating Point
Release date: August 16th, 2019
Genre: Harsh noise, power noise
Notes: Rhythmic (and not so rhythmic) noise blastings, crawlings, and assorted blends of the two.
Twin Aperture / Dosis Letalis - Atrophy

Genre: HNW
Notes: Two artists to one minute of content. Bite-size walls.
YIFF - Random noise session
Release date: May 26th, 2019

Notes: Digital improvisations. Very good for sampling, in my experience.
Strangled Girl In Latex - I
Release date: June 8th, 2020
Genre: HNW
Notes: Harsh noise wall from gorenoise freak Bobby Maggard.
Terror Cell Unit - Death to Oakland
Release date: May 13th, 2022
Genre: Power electronics
Notes: Terroristic dread. Like seeing an armed, shadowy figure move around empty public spaces on a grainy, silent CCTV feed and being able to do nothing but watch.
Pavor Nocturnus2 - MerzbowTale
Release date: December 29th, 2018
Genre: Harsh noise, VGM
Notes: The power of harsh noise is making your ears bleed.
Hearse Fetish - Cannibals of Winter Winds
Release date: February 25th, 2011
Genre: Drone noise
Notes: Like being stuck inside during a snowstorm, listening to the interference over the radio, trying to find even a brief message from the outside world. Nothing comes through.
ltmrs - Suspension of Disbelief
Release date: November 8th, 2019
Genre: Noise, dark ambient
Notes: Between the masked cover and some faints sounds behind the noise, part of me wants to imagine this as the soundtrack to the most ominous ballet or play of all time.
SEKAI - 「It's no use...」
Release date: April 15th, 2015
Genre: Kawaii noizu
Notes: Depressive harsh noise alternating with happy J-pop samples.
ltmrs - Shrill
Release date: August 13th, 2019
Genre: Field recordings, dark ambient, experimental
Notes: Voice memo recordings, physical drum jams, screeching hard noise, and ambient form a claustrophobic, anxiety-inducing whole. Quite dark.
Rape-X & She Walks Crooked - Rape-X & She Walks Crooked
Release date: November 21st, 2013
Genre: Power Electronics, Harsh Noise Wall
Notes: Screams and samples punctuating walls of cold-eyed static noise.
Шумоизоляция - Noise Cassette
Release date: February 5th, 2021
Genre: HNW
Notes: Seemingly a meta-examination of the musical medium itself, instead of any content that might be on it.
Tuskan Parahus - Tuskan Parahus
Release date: September 1st, 2023
Genre: Noise
Notes: Improvised live noise project from a war metal musician (see Furmaster on the metal page for their other work.) Would go very hard on DIY tape recordings.
The Rita - Lake Shark HN #21
Release date: August 15th, 2024
Genre: Field recordings, sound collage, noise
Notes: Same old Rita obsessions, but a bit of a different field recording collage style than his standard HNW approaches.
The Rita - The Rack
Release date: 2011
Genre: Ambient noise wall
Notes: Comfy crackling.
Taint - Houston / Bellmead
Release date: Unknown (Recorded 1997)
Genre: Power Electronics, Noise

tabby cat diaries - ☆★☆★☆~Habet Nyal Maganin~☆★☆★☆
Release date: November 8th, 2022
Genre: Harsh noise, pop
Notes: A pop song, coated in distortion and blanketed in noise. The Gerogerigegege's 愛人 = Ai-Jin comes to mind.
Transphobes can go die in a Fire - Fuck Soyjak.party
Release date: June 3rd, 2024
Genre: Harsh noise (wall)
Notes: Agreed.
tabby cat diaries - DIARY ENTRY 1
Release date: November 8th, 2022
Genre: Glitch, noise, harsh noise
Notes: tabby cat diaries' work is almost voyeuristic sometimes. This isn't the side of someone you usually get to see, even in open-hearted confessional projects of this sort. Essentially a diary entry, as the title implies.
Begonia - Welcome Home
Release date: 2013
Genre: Wall-ish harsh noise
Notes: "Yule trodden saps, swept low
Propagate the proper, or dissertate
Formally of course, we were never proud of you"
propanus - inviting a girl over to watch me play minecraft and try to kill myself
Release date: 2015
Genre: Noise
Notes: Lolicore-adjacent shitpost noise, dozens of tiny tracks. Probably a distorted sample, blasted into smithereens in Audacity or something. Originally a /mu/ post.
Insurgent - The 99 Names of God
Release date: 2011
Genre: Noise
Notes: For as usually terrorist-y as this project usually is, this was... a quite comfy listen? Basically ambient noise wall, with a bit of change, like a kind of incredibly lo-fi recording where almost nothing gets through but a soft blanket of noise. Part of me wonders if this was actually a sick power electronics album, but the guy ripping it forgot to change the batteries in his tape deck or something.
SEKAI - If My Heart Had Noizu 01
Release date: August 26th, 2016
Genre: Harsh noise, J-pop
Notes: More kawaii noizu. J-pop sampling intermixed with harsh noise assaults.
Mavis - FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY ROTTED HEART, BABY!
Release date: June 7th, 2019
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Hyperaggressive digital harsh noise attacks. I think I overuse that word here, but this is an album that really deserves it. It wants to hurt itself or you, either will work just fine.
Nocturnus - Gakken EP
Release date: 2019
Genre: Noise
Notes: Minimal, lo-fi noise improvs on the A side, lo-fi obliterated samples on side B; heavy radio interference, all you can hear is split-second pieces of media lost before any fragment of a message is conveyed.
Noisyphilia - agscwfdcfvggrvviz
Release date: 2022
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: J-pop and harsh noise, basically goes together like PB&J at this point. Then a short track of feedback and friction, and four minutes of pleasantly lo-fi noise that sounds like degraded damaged footage of some kind of underwater creature.
Akuma Daikon & Grim Kirby - Split
Release date:
Genre: Harsh noise, lolicore
Notes: Many short, sample-infused bite sized harsh noise tracks, topping off at just over a minute.
Nocturnus - Instarved Lag Tunes
Release date: March 28th, 2019
Genre: Harsh noise, experimental, glitch
Notes: I wish I could find the blog post Nocturnus made to go along with this album, it was basically an antire written documentary on how he made it. Or was it another album? Still wish I could find it, very unique sound either way.
propanus - scraping off my decaying penile growth with a cheese grater
Release date: 2015
Genre: Lolinoise
Notes: Lolicore-adjacent shitpost noise, dozens of tiny tracks. Probably a distorted sample, blasted into smithereens in Audacity or something. (Copy-pasted from the previous release, but it basically is the same thing.)
propanus - Cops are gay
Release date: 2015
Genre: Lolinoise
Notes: More Propanus lolinoise. For fans of Tsundere Violence and that kinda scene.
noizyphilia - 20220918
Release date: 2022
Genre: Harsh noise wall
Notes: 24 minutes of walling, plus a cat. Can't go too wrong there.
Mavis - TEENAGE MUTILATION FANTASY
Release date: June 18th, 2019
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: More digital noise spazzes flowing over with energy and aggression that could just as easily be turned inward or outward. Someone's gonna get hurt.
SEKAI - The SEKAI Complex Guide To Blackened Skies & Hostile Behavior
Release date: July 2015
Genre: Harsh noise, J-pop
Notes: Ten tracks of bouncy, glitched-out (scratched CD style) J-pop interspliced with harsh noise that sounds like it would crawl out of the headphones and attack you if it could.
Hearse Fetish - La notte che Evelyn usci dalla tomba
Release date: November 24th, 2010
Genre: Drone noise
Notes: I can't think of a better descriptor than "basement noise."
Latex Priest - Eroticism (live)
Release date: 2023
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Jittery, anxious improvised noise set.
AcePhoenix - 22:27
Release date: March 17th, 2015
Genre: Raw data noise, glitch
Notes: Audacity raw data noise, compiled into album format by a 15 year old. I embrace the sincerity of it.
propanus - i am ready to sacrifice my useless body to an incontinent meth whore loli who has psychotic episodes where she tries to chew my cock off and fill the wound with nettles and cancer and is probably possessed
Release date: 2015
Genre: Lolinoise
Notes: Absolutely nothing more needs to be said.
⇩LOAD - Unreleased Works
Release date: 2023
Genre: Noise, glitch, ambient
Notes: Lapfox's noise works are like nothing else on this earth. Their extensive experience in normal music gives their experimental pieces a deeply cinematic, professional sound, still with a very DIY ethos. This is a bootleg of their work compiled by SatanicPaws, whose music you can find elsewhere here as ES: Volume 3.
mold singles
Release date: 2018?
Genre: Dark ambient, noise
Notes: Someone going wild on the percussion, partially backed by someone manning the noise pedals, and two tracks of curious ghostly dark ambient.
王长存 - Parallel Universe
Release date: 2005
Genre: Dark ambient, noise
Notes: Two live sets from 2005. Found sounds, collaged, distorted, picking up the thoughts of thousands, the memetic underbelly of urban complexes.
SHITNOISE - SALTY PISS PINK SCAT TERROR FEELINGS #3
Release date: 2016
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Not Deuteronomy / ⇩LOAD, just a fan doing a sort of tribute project on a deleted bandcamp page.
The Barracks Of Afghanistan - Color
Release date: 2006
Genre: Noise
Notes: Power electronics style screaming and analog squelches, like battle between machine and human that the human is rapidly and obviously losing.
i love 98 - 98 is a cool number
Release date: 2024
Genre: Noise
Notes: Experiments from an artist usually known for their lo-fi acoustic emo under "pony necklaces" and "skrillex is god." Dedicated to their love of the number 98.
Noisyphilia - 2021-12-05_noise
Release date: January 17th, 2022
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Lolicore adjacent harsh noise. Almost soft despite its harshness. Expect prolonged anime samples.
Various Artists - SUPER WICKED XMAS NOISE TRAXX VOLUME 1
Release date: 2020
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Lolicore-adjacent Christmas noise for keeping carolers far, far away.
SHITNOISE - UNREAL LOVE TERROR FEELINGS #4
Release date: 2016
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Not Deuteronomy / ⇩LOAD, just a fan doing a sort of tribute project on a deleted bandcamp page. (2)

Release date: 2016
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Not Deuteronomy / ⇩LOAD, just a fan doing a sort of tribute project on a deleted bandcamp page. (3)

Release date: 2021
Genre: Dark ambient, noise
Notes: Subtle bitcrushed dirges.
Fort Thunder(?)
Release date: 2006
Genre: Experimental, noise
Notes: MP3s recovered from Fort Thunder, and possibly affiliated with the artist behind skeleton jelly, which is *always* a good sign. If you don't like skeleton jelly we can't be friends, sorry.
tell me something good - say, I wanna hold yr side (single)
Release date: 2019
Genre: Noise rock
Notes: Rock music, frayed at the edges to the point of complete disintegration in audible pain but still proclaiming something incomprehensible and lost to time at this point with whatever strength it has left.
『Acid Lemons💊🍋』 - Blue Tack Girl
Release date: 2022
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Amateur audacity bedroom noise. I don't mean that in a bad way, either.
腐那 funa - お まえに
Release date: 2019
Genre: Noise
Notes: Minimal rhythmic noise jams. It will never not blow my mind how simple of a concept noise is, but how none of these releases sound alike, and how often I completely fail to find a basis for comparison or even an accurate way to describe them.
tabby cat diaries - 銀河鉄道の夜
Release date: November 14th, 2022
Genre: Harsh noise wall
Notes: HNW dedicated to Night on the Galactic Railroad (銀河鉄道の夜).
DJ meow-meow menstruation - DJ meow-meow menstruation
Release date: March 11th, 2023
Genre: Harsh noise, glitch, breakcore
Notes: Nobody does it like tabby cat diaries. Pop music obliterated, strange shadows cast by the shards. Good shit.
Rob - Stalling
Release date: 2015
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: More mutated rock music. Pretty fun and even kinda funky once you get into it.
Sefy - Slaughterhouse
Release date: 2022
Genre: Dark ambient, noise
Notes: Feedback-heavy, bare bones stripped down harsh noise for 26 seconds and a couple minutes of presumably plunderphonics dark ambient for empty slaughterhouses.
Scuzz Mutt - きたない! Vol. 1
Release date: 2019?
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Noise and experimental compositions for physical instruments and digital distortion. I'm not totally sure what that word means but it sure sounds scuzzy.
NCPSD - [rz426] NCPSD - Doom 2019
Release date: 2019
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Presumably the audio of a Doom playthough being transformed into noise in real time. I wouldn't know as I haven't played it, but it seems reasonable. Think "badass background music, but also someone is sitting in the room with you twiddling knobs on their pedal setup."
Pentagram - Noise Machine
Release date: 2019
Genre: Noise, experimental
Notes: I feel like this person just found out what noise is and is having a blast with it. Naive as it is, they managed to get some sounds out of whatever software they're using that I've never heard anywhere before, which is just why I love this genre; someone can come into it with nothing but a half-baked vision and manifest it, and leave me wondering, how the hell did he do that?
Kotaks - Delas
Release date: 2018
Genre: Harsh noise
Notes: Three short, fun blasts. Not a single moment is wasted, nothing but action and chaos and flailing. A solid way to spend 111 seconds.
Instruments Vivants - Untitled (2013)
Release date: 2013
Genre: Free Improvisation, Musique Concrète, Noise
Notes: Rare tape rip sent to me as a trade for an actual cassette tape. Fair deal.
『 Acid Lemons💊🍋』- Slutty Cat Rape
Release date: 2022
Genre: Noise
Notes: Amateur audacity bedroom noise. I'm guessing lolicore was an influence too.
orchardgrl - the depthless
Release date: 2019
Genre: Noise rock
Notes: Rock music, extrapolated and alienated into it's primal elements and put back together entirely wrong.
腐那 funa - 荒削り noise madness
Release date: 2019
Genre: Noise, experimental
Notes: Soft, lo-fi, lo-bit garbled transmissions. Some elements of conventional music, albeit kinda... melty.
Various Artists - Pure
Release date: 2007
Genre: Power Electronics, Death Industrial, Sound Collage, Spoken Word, Dark Ambient
Notes: Sotos-dedicated power electronics compilation.
Big City Orchestra & Nux Vomica - Tryst 6
Release date: Unknown
Genre: Sound collage
Notes: BCO did some housecleaning and in order to get rid of hundreds of old tapes of random recordings, sessions, and detritus, they just randomly sent them out to fans - each tape unique. Since there's so many unique tapes the likelihood of a full archive is almost nihil, but at least we have this one from a rip on YouTube.
ノコギ子 nokogiko - nokogiko Live
Release date: 2019
Genre: Noise
Notes: I hear vocals, I hear drums, I can't tell you much beyond that. It seems to be the very verge of noise rock turning into pure noise.
Olioueoiaui - Noise Pieces
Release date: November 22nd, 2012
Genre: Noise, ambient, experiment, plunderphonics
Notes: Probably a /mu/ find. Soft at moments, experimental at others, and sometimes approaching vaporwave, which in 2012 was still in its late heyday.
Unknown Artist - Ninja McTits McTime SpyBlasters Ook Hiau Acta Crusher Horizon Paperboy
Release date: 2022?
Genre: Harsh noise, spamwave
Notes: Digital noise single released via Discord (by a deleted user, no less.) Not by Ninja McTits.
unknown artist - k. yong mix
Release date: 2020
Genre: Experimental, noise
Notes: I think I got this from /mu/, but who knows. Interesting selection of tracks from the noise and experimental underground. Ryoji Ikeda, Whitehouse, Gerogerigegege; it hits a lot of the big names and a bunch of smaller artists too.
TEMMA - MIDWEST ASSFUCK MIXTAPE
Release date: November 13th, 2021
Genre: Midwest emo, noise
Notes: Midwest emo mixtape, blasted with distortion and released exclusively via a link dropped in a live chat at a URL show years ago.
