Vomir - Blank [SGFF Records - 2020]

Blank is an extremely minimal packaged C30 release from Frances king of wall noise Vomir- it severs up two side long examples of densely spurting ‘n’ churning HNW, that’s as unforgiving as it is crude.

This release appeared in January of this year-released by Pennsylvania noise label SGFF Records aka Swollen Gargantuan Fecal Fetus Records. And to say this is minimal packaged is an understatement; basically what we have here is a plain black cassette inside a clear case that features a handwritten black sharpie writing on the spine/side- taking the projects name, it’s number out of twenty & the labels name.


The tracks are simple entitled "Blank I & II"- so the first sides ‘wall’ is a mixture of a constantly flowing muffled drone, meshed choppy jittering & some slight baying & rattling static sub-tones. The whole thing has that typical nasty & crude Vomir feel about it, and imagery wise it brings to mind a speedily flowing river of thick & lumpy sewage water- that bubbling up at the edges, with random turds getting struck ever so often on the rusted steel banks of the rancid flow. Fairly textbook stuff really- but it enchants just enough, in its own nasty way

Flipping over and we, of course, have "Blank II"- here we find a blend of rapidly chopping static grain, which is underfed by a blunt & cold rushing drone. Over these two main textures, we get this rattling slight more crisp weaving static motif. Of the two 'walls' I’d say this is the most effective, as I was getting some neat moments of sonic trickery occurring- as we get moments of bubbling & forming static seemingly happening, when of course like all of Vomir’s work this is very much set. This track also feels a more urgent & at times almost sprightly- though of course we still have that trademark rough ‘n’ ready feel to proceedings.

So Blank is yet another sonic brick in Vomir rapidly grown wall of a Discography that moving towards nearing three hundred & thirty releases- I’d say as a long term fan/ follower of the project that this stands as another consistent enough release, with the second side been the best of the two walls.
