Deaf Club is a savage sound bath dripping with sardonicism: a blastbeat-centric hardcore punk assault channeling crust, thrash, and grind (un)sensibilities. Succinct pauses, surreal frequencies and effects, breakneck pace and sharply hurled vocals characterize the band’s aesthetic, which seems as though it is rooted in a sort of nasty-sound-meets-highbrow-message ethos. Fueled by the onslaught of society’s insanity and driven mad by tinnitus, Justin Pearson, Brian Amalfitano, Scott Osment, and Jason Klein, approach music as an opportunity to confront our collective sicknesses. We’ve got to try to listen, lest we all frolic headfirst towards the bright side of death, dragging this pillaged planet down with us. So whether you think the music is a radical disruption to the airwaves or just headache-inducing noise, you can feel free to tell them the brutal truth– they can’t hear you anyway.
Cyberplasm is a visceral techno-d-beat project that originated in Olympia, but is now split between there and NYC. It pulls from elements of mystical spiritual experiences, the healing from abuse systems and the deconstruction of the fascism that is rationalist technological thought control. The focus is on the hope of healing and connection in the midst of bleak and oppressive realities. These hopes are soundtracked to the sounds of drum and bass, crossover thrash, harsh noise, d-beat and techno.
