The Lowest Form - Personal Space
"The second album from UK hardcore engine The Lowest Form, Personal Space sees the band cutting through a comedown fug of feedback, sharp butterflyknife guitars flashing deadly over a wasteground rubble of noise.
Songs drawn up from discord, songs of marshalled cacophony, coils of scritching guitars break apart and reform, coalescing around insistent basslines and heavy drumbeats, before splintering again. It's hardcore constructed from textured noise as much as from breakdowns and riffs, rumbling infectious chants emerging from the wavering clamor, the vile keening of consciousness's half-known edges, noise in the grain of it all, noise as bedrock, an abrasive acid bath of fuzz, susurration and machinewhirr.
"SMASH MY FUCKIN' HEAD AGAINST THE WALL" is the line that opens it up, rising out of Interplanetary Bad Boy's hissing swell. Driven through the album are anguished explorations of interior/exterior limits, whirling around viciously in the grubby borders of your skull, spinning hopelessly in the cosmic of the aether, untethered, higher than the sky but way down in the muck. From Gak Attack's claustrophobic pogo or Last Smash's drawling thump to Star Slammers manic tumble and Dread Future's rolling barrage, The Lowest Form have brought together another LP of murdered-out panicattack punk, lithe and unleashed, born of bad vibes and background radiation, an album at once uncomfortably close and fully heavy."

No Form - Self Titled 12"
"A boundary-pushing record from the North of England. Bathing in the
murk, devoid of light, it invokes a dark atmosphere that has little to
do with any gothic plod or metal pose. This is punk, as antagonistic and
cleansing as it ever can be. NO FORM's notorious live power is finally
captured on this, their first record, with four shorter pulsating
numbers on Side A and one long jam on Side B that approaches the outer
limits. Shrill, disconcerting guitar leads and tormented vocals slither
over an affirmative pummel that exists at the meeting point between
outlier hardcore punk - SIEGE/UNITED MUTATION/GISM - and
post-punk/proto-industrial at its most confrontational - SPK/CABARET
VOLTAIRE/GOOD MISSIONARIES. Deceptively catchy thrashing coexists with
sinister, siren-call sax that evokes THROBBING GRISTLE. This is music
for the perennially despondent. Music for the subconscious, not the
fashion conscious. This is music that could have been the soundtrack to
the Blood Garden in JG Ballard's 'High Rise'. This is music as life
ritual, to be listened to by all or none."
