Words

Nick Klein is a large figure in the Brooklyn noise community, but his new record on the Unknown Precept label should finally start to earn him serious recognition the world over. While Nick's music is certainly noisy, it still packs more than enough rhythmic wallop to get your head banging. This sets it apart from the vast majority of noise records, as this 12-inch absolutely devastates in clubs, something I can personally attest to. The sonics are brutal but often possess an almost triumphant synth section that sounds like it was recorded live in a church, as opposed to being the result of turning nobs in his studio.
