Dog Holocaust - Vol 1,2 & 3 [SNSE/ Gapping Hole - 2008]Dog Holocaust is a boiling and sleazy noise soaked collaboration between Nolan T (Kakerlak) and Dan Johansson (Sewer Election). This cd brings together material from several out of print cassettes. The first thing that hits you about this release is the cover artwork which is not for the easily shocked been made up of pictures of various female orifices and male genital S & M photograph. The album features three 20 plus minute tracks with each exploding in building crushing/ storm ripping & roaring manner of prime unforgiving noise. The tracks start and don’t let up with the audio attack until their ends. Though that’s not to say this is wall noise, the pair build-up a dense wall of sound but there are shifts in tone & texture, almost harmonic shorting elements and almost rhythmic bombardments and swoops of noise tone. The first and last track are the so most rewarding here, the middle track sadly starts off ok but seem to run out of ideas pretty soon as the same sounds are looped again and again; ultimately making it rather boring after its 20 minute run. Through out a brutally and unforgiving noise storm topped with some shocking cover artwork. With the start and finish track been rewarding in their twists and turns with only the middle track rather letting the album down.      Roger Batty
