CoC : Acrobats of Apocalypse - Acrobats of Apocalypse : Review

Acrobats of Apocalypse - _Acrobats of Apocalypse_
by: Adrian Bromley (2 out of 5)

Probably the oddest assortment of numbers that the 'madman' Bill Sannwald has taken upon himself to fit on one tape. As I have said before, a lot of his material is fucked up and weird - this is the weirdest it has been. Unbearable at times thanks in part to raunchy and totally annoying fuzzo-distorted sound and samples, AoA hits the nerves in all the right places to annoy. Some stuff here is salvageable, but for the most part, it's all a wish-wash of numerous artists and friends lending their talent (or is that just noise?) to the project. Okay at times, but I'd stick with some of his other more versatile and interesting projects, i.e. Thought Masticator or the truly powerful and brilliant Amish Mafia demo. That rules hands down.
