Waves Crashing Piano Chords- I Can't Get The Taste Off My Tongue



Common adjectives used to describe Waves Crashing Piano Chords include depraved, perverted, degenerate, corrupt, and prurient.

All of these adjectives are, for this release, outdated.

These adjectives belong to the Waves Crashing Piano Chords that crashed shows in Rochester and fucked up his knee. Those adjectives belonged to the Waves Crashing Piano Chords that made fantastic, but still relatively simple blasts of frentic, physical noise.

I Can't Get The Taste Off My Tongue maintains these characteristics, but the tone produced by the typical microphone/amp/voice feedback is so processed and dynamic that it sounds like something else entirely. Feedback chits and chatters into a beat-like musique concrete. 

The speed seems to change throughout the recording, with washes of Merzbow, table-top static brushing through the speakers. 

The quiet parts are creeping little dirges. Rumbling feedback and distorted heavy breathing add a familiar sense of sexual desperation. 

The song ends like an android drowning, a high scream crumbling into distortion.


This is perhaps his best work. I truly implore you to purchase this album. One of my favorite non-LP releases of the year.



Cop the one-sided 7" here.
