Black Slaughter — Sadistic Murder

Sadistic Murder is a 3inch CDR that brings together crude & nasty noise texturing, darkly purring synth focused noise, and darts into more vocal-less PE territory. Black Slaughter is a new/recent-ish project from German noise maker Ron H, who is most known in noise circles for his blunt & brutal wall noise project Cannibal Ritual.

The 3inc CDR comes packaged in a mini black case- we get a  inlay paper featuring gory female face slashings, and a hand number. The outside case takes in monochrome pictures of gagged & bloody women, and a slumped body on a chair- and with track titles like "Sadistic Murder" & "Necro Torture"- you know what to expect theme-wise. The release had an edition of twenty-five copies, and as of this review, the label still has copies for sale.

In all the nineteen minute release features five tracks- and each of these has a runtime between just under three & less than five minutes. We move from the buzzing dragged-out chainsaw like low-end meets cluttering crude texturing of the opening track “Fatal Invitation”. Onto the rattling ‘n’ violently dragging junk like noise making of “Sadistic Murder” which sounds like an exhaust slowly coming off the bottom a car. Or the slack ‘n’ bleak sinister noise synth chug of the final track “Necro Torture”.

On the whole Sadistic Murder is a nice ‘n’ nasty EP from this project. If you enjoy the likes of Atrax Morgue more vocal-less moments or decidedly sludgy & sinister noise texturing I feel you’ll get a suitable macabre buzz from this 3inc- If you want to pick up a copy direct head here
