Various Artists - Hated Perversions

When you get some new CDs, it is like some kind of introductional ritual to revise the package before listening. To look through the booklet if there is any, to read lyrics etc. It was just the same with this release. Black leather case with CD and A5 booklet. While going through it I got stiffed for a moment because not so frequently the abundance and variety of visual information raises so many questions, surprises, enlightens, disturbs you etc. In the booklet - a page or a couple for every participant of the compilation. In these pages - fantasies of artists and publisher - lolitas, shemales, rape, torture, S&M, scat, something that you don't get at first, but just know that there is something wrong with the picture etc. It is not so often that the title of the album reflects in visual information so precisely. As for this case, sonic information is accepted even easier than visuals. There are 8 artists of power electronics invited to explore hated perversions in this release. Album is opened by 2 tracks of Nicole 12 that sounds like oppressive, hard and sick fantasies. Analogue synth and whispering voice of voyerist smooths ears in the first one. Vogue Bambini is different - colder and even more unpleasant track, but both of them in the same pervert tradition and mood which is perfectly illustrated by the smiling girls with masks of cucumber on their eyes. Next is Sick Seed who takes the baton. It is the result of evolution of Gelsomina which present two very strong pieces. Agenda - noisy, slow and pressing piece. Looped sample of something similar to few notes from Massive Attack sounds in the background of noises and bursting shouting vocal ."Must get rid of the sick seed burning my mind, sick seed burning my balls". The second piece - more active, noisier, but miry and you cannot get rid of the sick atmosphere. These were, if I am not mistaken, the first tracks that made public of this Finn under the name of Sick Seed. Anyway at the moment, after having a listen of other releases/participations of this project, I can tell without a doubt that this is one more very strong power electronics unit coming from the country that always have what to offer - Finland. The third one in compilation - Bizarre Uproar with one, but the longest piece. Scream "White Power", filth, dirt, feedbacks, energy and power. Propaganda of politicized fetishism in oppressive spaces. Salut! Eleczema is following. I've heard this project for the first time in this compilation. After the slush of Bizarre Uproar the sound of this project seems uncomfortably clean at first. And Eleczema presents not sick visions and fantasies. Ice Cold Enema - aggressive, angry and dictating affirmation of authority. Brutal sex game, dictating his conditions in voice full of hate. The second piece from this unit - a little faster, less structurized and more massive piece with very beautifully flanged and effected vocal. Further on in compilation - one more project from the director of the release - Grunt with a track Will to do Damage. Low rumbles, delayed vocals and might. The text without compromises and one and only goal - "Will to do Damage". After that - the last ever piece of legendary Taint. Breathing of excited man that makes me shiver and perverted mood of the song. Taint'ic squeaks and feedbacks, low frequencies lay beneath them, harsh sounds and vocal that disappears and appears again. Taint made evolution to Mania, Gelsomina to Sick Seed. It is the last sonic journey of one project and the first of another, but the results are pefect from both of them. Next is short, lasting just for two and a half minutes hotchpotch of drums and feedbacks by Dorchester Library. I've heard this project for the first time and I cannot say that it made some good impression, but let it be. Compilation is closed by Control. It is one slow, dark and haunting track at the beginning which slowly grows and develops into powerful and all-destroying tornado of sound. Suffocate and Silent. Control finishes the compilation. And I guess it was the longest review I've ever written, but it can hardly reflect all this strange and unpleasant atmosphere that is concentrated around this release. Once you see the booklet, you cannot "unsee" it. These hated perversions already IS in your head. It is one of the best compilations from what I've had in my hands that completed its goals from A to Z. A special release for special occasions. Must have for every pervert. For now I remain suffocated and silent.
