Starving Weirdos - With All The Hues Of The Rainbow [Audiobot - 2007]

With all the Hues of The rainbow finds the Starving Weirdos offering up some of their most noisy and disorientating material yet, really dropping the listening into a very strange drone and harmonic mixed world that echo’s of tones and elements of our own world, but it most definitely in a world of it’s own.

The other thing is this it’s often difficult to figure out who or by what the sound and drone texture are been made, like on the first track Politiking Blood, your unshaw wether it’s a weird mix of  brass sounds, horns or actually road /car sounds that are  been used to build the strange drone harmonics. Everything here seems blurred and out of focus as if your wondering through a strange reality that to begin with seems like our world, but the father you move on the more objects and people seem odd, out of sink and start bending and morphing into each other. Each track is quite dense and not immediately pleasing, the whole album it’s licked by this hazy vibe that takes some getting accustomed to, but once it clicks after a fee listens it seem to make it’s own bizarre sense. Backward sound element move here, what could be bent and morphed strings roll in strange harmonic loneliness, bell’s tinkle, bob and sway, guitar strums haze and melt into what could be organ drones. All in all 3 track coming near to the filthy minute mark.

Though I’d admit this is not one of my Favourites of SW work, one certainly has to be impressed with their constant search for new audio worlds and strange sound adventures, with this one been partially dark and difficult. One more for the season Werdios audio- naughts among you. Oh and the cdr comes in a bizarre and freakish collage artwork, that fit this odd audio work perfectly.
