so many v. obv postpunk influences interlaced in here, but I keep circling back to the two-fisted keyboard kraft + meltdown vox of live Suicide and their commendable efforts at befouling NYC:

Been really kicking off on the goats for the last couple of days to this track by Forebrace. Feels slightly like a demented version of the Taking of Pelham 123 theme.

E3 I know u have heard gabber + its sundry ultra-bpm hyperkore krokodil-shooting-anthem progeny b/c I recall blessing u w/ said festering musical misery via magnetic tape approx 70 years ago. which aspects of 2013's arrested ultraviolent nihilistic never-employed pornogore-fanatic jugend hatchlings are giving u pause? splittercore is magic we can all share.

i thought ilx loved l.i.e.s? or do u mean like lex (lol)? some of the techno stuff is too boring for me but im not super into techno anyways

eh, it’s standard low-level bobbins cru carping about the elevation of noise and its corollary ~the degradation of groove~ together purportedly making the material sound like shit on sound systems + difficult to mix w/ standard techno fair. also, annoyance w/ the hype factor/crossover appeal that grants the artists greater coverage than veterans who don’t have a novel noise angle, which I’m sure is true but IDGAF. tbf I enjoy the label’s tunes more as lo-fi psych jams + I don’t have to mix this racket into crowd-moving sets.

well "most of the stuff" i guess is about 5 bands/albums, but still that's a lot.
i'm familiar with BBB, but I hadn't heard any new stuff from them since they kinda updated their production value. i'm into it though.

well gabber was v well-defined w/ a geographical ground zero (rotterdam) + (in)famous practitioners of the art + labels and such, whereas based on its brief wikipedia entry and approx 1000 mp3 compilations on archive.org for all I know splittercore is a genre hoax perpetrated by a single overcaffeinated 4chan manboy
don't even get me started on extratone

way back in the dark ages of gabber there were already 1000-bpm cornball fux vying f/ the prestigious wet merkin prize f/ crippling onanism, so this particular strain of teen stupor has been around f/ a while. also, we may have shot past the point where ephemeral microgenres require anything more than self-referential authentication (p. sure no one glomming onto "splittercore" is waiting by the phone f/ Wenner's approval). idk, yr right in some old-media sense, but the youths on Bandcamp are cranking out new tags by the crate and it's less hoax than wager (the ghost of shit future will see you now).
