Vomir / Superror — Vomir / Superror

This C40 is the second split release that has occurred between French wall noise master Vomir, and Austrian based HNW/Harsh noise project Superror.

The pro labelled tape comes in a single sided inlay shelve that takes in murky & dull pictures of what looks like  densely painted walls, or amassed grimy patterns. This is topped off with minimal & stark white texts. The release comes in an edition of 35 copies.

So on the first side we have a untitled Vomir track, and this is fairly standard,( through no less effective) crude & searing walled noise fare from this project.  It’s a simply, dense & unmoving blend of two main textures: a rapid ‘n’ rotating  billowing drone, and this is tightly weaved with fainter  rattling static grain.  These elements run together in a complete unchanging mass, and ‘yes’ it’s neither creative or fresh in it’s use of textures- but it is  both intense & oddly pleasing ( in a overloaded/ tortuous way).

So flipping over to side two & we have  the Superror track- once again this another untitled affair. It opens fairly pared back with a  mix of distant wind textures, and stretched out & melancholic like honking  mouth organ.  With-in three or so minutes the sonic picture has  thickened up & we move into a mix of almost groove like buzzing bass  noise, which is weaved with several layers of mechanical like locked down  churnings- ever so  often you get sears of moody noise stretchers shifting over the sound mass. I guess you’d say this was ‘wall-ish’ like industrial tinged noise drone.  It remains fair thick & dense through-out, with it thinning down in a few places for the moody harmonica stretches & eerier textural like bounces.

So as splits go this rewarding enough- with the Vomir’s crude, overloaded, and unchanging wall, nicely contrasting with Superror more mechanical tinged noise drone track.
