Live ISDN drone performance resonating between Dundee and an empty Montreal Grain Silo.
Merzbow takes the junk of sound and transforms it into blistering noise assaults with an incredible spectrum and impact.
Miniscule free-noise hissy-fits and broken instrument scrape/ squeal jams from the fools what brought you Giant Tank.
