Title Description:
First discovered through the Low End Recon compilation in which they shared the bill with Mick Harris (Scorn / Quoit) and Not Breathing, the American duo Larvae has been active for years in various media fields, performing with video, photographic and audio installation.
Ê
Subtle music composers and visual artists, Matthew Jeanes and Bryan Meng took their time to polish their art, which finally reached the ears of Ad Noiseam. Following a first 7 and a split with Miles Tilmann on their own Sub:Marine Records, Larvae is now working on a first full length CD album, to be released on Ad Noiseam in the autumn 2003.
Ê
Using samples from old Japanese monster movies, Larvae pay also here a tribute to Godzilla and his giant friends, and takes a distance from the gloomy image attributed to noisy (some will say industrial) drumÕnÕbass. Massive and not afraid to integrate elements from noise or hip-hop, Larvae is one of a kind, anthemic and yet detailed and heavy. Bursting out of its cocoon, this monster is not to be missed.
