Anomali - Nitya-Baddha Mp3

Dedicated to the primordial UK noise group The New Blockaders and featuring archival material recorded live with that group sometime in 1989, Anomali have an approach to sonic plundering that is as fu*ked, crude and humorous as Christoph Heeman and Achim Flaam's Hirsche Nich Auf Sofa. 'Nitya-Baddha', a self-released CD in an edition of 100, is a series of collages of shredded torch songs, dripping taps, gunshots and inane soundbites, all lapped with tongues of torrential feedback. Despite their affinities with TNB, Anomali's approach is more compositional, at times recalling Steven Stapleton's more fevered Nurse With Wound creations, or the sound of someone slowly dialling through Eastern Bloc radio broadcasts while legions of disgruntled peasants trash a politburo WC. - David Keenan THE WIRE (UK)
