Live Ichorous

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Since I know at least a few of you may be interested in my harsh noise stuff, please check out these live videos...it's actually just one night's set, divided into two videos due to Youtube's dumb rule.

I forget how to embed things, so sorry.

Is it improv. or are you actually playing specific songs?

 

[Matt]

Neat.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Always improv for me live. Recorded, I tend to edit a lot more and spend a lot of time mastering for good sound.

I always have sections or specific ideas for sets planned though, so I wouldn't call it COMPLETE improvisation...but compared to most music, yes.

well well well

look who decided to join us

The horrible bastard who abandoned this place.

But, looks like I'm back...least for a time. Heard you did and Matt took over. Thanks. You guys can stick around if you want...don't matter to me. Like I said, I'm the one who was gone.

 

[unknown]

haha nice.

any reason for the absence...if it was to get away from the madness, I don't blame you

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Partly because I became disinterested (and, yes, disillusioned by the immense suckitude of this place, though it looks a little alright-er), partly because I have been busy working, spending time with my girlfriend, playing shows/recording, and preparing for college, and partly to be a dick.

Just kidding about that last one.

Maybe.

 

[unknown]

doubtful.


fun times though!

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

You bet.

The fact that you enjoy real life more than us makes me a little jealous. It's like you are cheating on us.

Anyway, welcome back. Please talk about brutal death at some point, I've been lonely on that account.

I didn't know there was such a thing as a good sound for harsh noise.

I'll never get the interest in this type of "music" and I'm actually amazed that people actually perform live.

 

[cookiecutter]

How many people usually come to your shows?

It's because you aren't part of the scene, don't spend a lot of time around it etc. In that respect you are just like someone wondering why death metal even exists and how people can enjoy it. So watch what you say.

CC, that night was around 20 people. Next night was like 35. So, not many. But it's due to not being a major style of music, we don't have a great scene 'round here (but the people playing both shows were from NY, VT, NH, MA, ME, RI, CT, etc.), the parking is meager, etc. Lots of factors contribute to small attendances. You can't dance to it either.

I, however, take noise extremely seriously. It's a big part of my life, and I hope it will be for as long as I am alive.

When you shout into the mic are you shouting words or just screaming?

Oh don't worry I know that many people call death metal noise and wonder why it exists. But in this case it really is just noise.

I tried to listen to it but I can't find anything to I like in there. But if people go see you and you enjoy what you do...well that is great.

I don't have any lyrics, so you do the math.

 

[Killbot]

You could shout really weird stuff and the people watching would be none the wiser... You could even do subliminal messages in your shouting.
