Merzbow
Artist Overview
Merzbow, aka Masami Akita, is one of the most important figures in the Japanese noise music movement. Releasing an astounding amount of work since the early 1980s, Merzbow's sound is a brutal amalgamation of electronically generated screeches, squeals, and drones that while certainly not accessible in any traditional sense is often beautifully entrancing in its unrelenting brutality. Skewing convention on every creative level, Merzbow released the enormous 50-CD box set MERZBOX in 2000.
