Ritual Presents: John Wiese & Vomir | O’Death 3851 Culebra Rd
Arts
Chime the new year in with the obscene mutant sounds of now for these two very special South Central TX gatherings featuring… John Wiese is a celebrated figure in the underground realms of aural experimentation. Whether joining rank on a myriad of collaboration efforts (which include too many to list here - Merzbow, Evan Parker, Wolf Eyes, et al … he’s worked with ‘em all.), blasting cerebellums in the group Sissy Spacek, or continuing to pursue the contours of his own aperture focused on exploring the conceptual bounds of sound, art, and composition-thru-friction, Wiese’s oeuvre is expansive as much as it is transmutational. Lurching forward in the mid-2000s from France the obscured entity known the world over as Vomir is poised in a forever war against creativity and all things culturally significant, Romain Perrot (“Roro” to his friends) sets to confine the listener to the space inhabited by the signature auditory cage of Harsh Noise Wall, a subgenre the aforementioned practically pioneered but at least provided progeny through. Countless, continuous appearances throughout the States and worldwide keeps the staunch golem of harsh noise in the purview of all who are drawn to the cult of the trash, the empire of shit, the legacy of nothing. Vomir’s anti-art campaign persists despite space, time, and absurdity…. “virality” only furthers this agenda… Imprint Design is the Lynchian horror-infected brainchild of one Juan Carlos Newton, a Houston native (currently lives in SanFran, ex-Cop Warmth/Active Shooter/KRVSHR). ID’s basis for existence is a confluence of styles- the marriage of Japanese harsh noise extremity, Krautrock psychedelic defragmentation, industrial worship, “stochastique” serialism, and above all: menacing vibrations. Sulfuric Cautery/Blast Addict head honcho Isaac Horne has borne the mantle of Malignant Hyperthermia as a project that is fixated with pure, unadulterated drum-machine splattergore punishment. Like a more primitive, blown out Mortician in hyperdrive. Low frequencies meet redlining carnage. Accompanying them are a bevvy of regional talents, varying terminal musick half-lifes to further celebrate the occasion.
