Bleep

Fans familiar with Hospital’s extensive back catalogue may recognise Kriz Lapke’s name from many of the labels mastering credits, however his Alberich pseudonym has also been responsible for some harrowing noise / industrial releases through a series of cassettes. ‘Machine Gun Nest: Cassette Works Vol 0’ sees Lapke break away from cassette for eight slices of pure apocalyptic power electronics, with “Gold” opening with a dark judgment day tone. “Snow Is Falling In The Ruins Of Stalingrad” evokes haunting imagery of a dilapidated battlefield with merciless vocal samples and harsh hissing. A tormenting and hard-hitting production.
