Merzbeat' is definately an interesting album that really requires repeated listens. Many people will not get the seemingly random bursts of noise, and even music fanatics can find Merzbow's music to challenging and abrasive a listen.
It's a Merzbow album with near-tunes that actually change over the course of each piece. Factor in the fourth track, "Tadpole"- what might be the most traditionally beautiful piece of Merzmusic- and it's hard not be optimistic about the future of Masami Akita's work. Merzbeat is engaging, yet to laud the work as an achievement- or even a standout release- might be beside the point. For Merzbow, music is garbage: This CD is just the result of the wild excesses of information in our lives. It's essentially the most accurate form of folk music we have
Merzbow (メルツバウ Merutsubau) is a Japanese noise project started in 1979 by Masami Akita (秋田 昌美 Akita Masami). Merzbow is best known for a style of harsh, confrontational noise. Since 1980, Akita has released over 400 recordings and has collaborated with various artists. The name Merzbow comes from the German dada artist Kurt Schwitters' artwork Merzbau, in which Schwitters transformed the interior of his house using found objects
Unlike most of Merzbow's stuff, this album has beats, musicality and is actually funky and has a lot of replay value. Pretty much the ideal noise album as far as my taste goes. This is just a fascinatingly fun and captivating experience with some really cool beats.
