Noise is sexy
Blixa Bargeld, the long time member of the legendary group Einsturzende Neubauten, once said: 'Silence is sexy'. The idea of silence has always been appreciated by the German band but let’s face it; the noise of a screeching guitar, the blast of beating drums and a pumping bass all help to face life with greater enthusiasm.
It is a cry in the face of reality sending a warning that nothing will be taken simply sitting down. Kind of like a war cry signalling the fact that there is a certain readiness to defend ourselves, fearless and eyes wide open.
Recently another type of special “noise” has come from a band called DeVino G and the so-called “ noise” in question seems to be a mixture the stoner of Kyuss and grunge sounds of Soundgarden only a hell of a lot angrier. Listening you to them you seem to be confronted by an immense tumbling wall of sound with its height,weight and distortion.
The “destructive” sound is back and it is called DeVinoG.
