As you like it “weird” …



… well, this stuff is weird, probably more for the fact that the whole thing is somehow and incredibly related to Napalm Death!
These are the rips from the Evanescence 1994 and Ellipsis 1995 albums by Scorn, a UK-based drone-electronic-ambient- industrial-dub project by ex-Napalm Death drummer Nick Harris and founder Nicholas Bullen. Recently Earache made a special reissue of these long out-of-print albums.
The 1995 album included material from the Evanescence album which had been remixed partly by some great names of electronic music, such as Bill Laswell, Autreche, Coil and Meat Beat Manifesto. Really really nice.
Recently I was listening to this stuff while reading an icy-cold noir story by a Scandinavian writer. Cool tunes, great atmospheres, a perfect soundtrack for a dry writing style …

Piotr, lol, don't worry, I'm fine, thanks ...

Well, I guess you'll be a bit "disappointed" by the Napalm Death connection, if it is Napalm Death sound that you are expecting ...
(I alerted you guys, it's "weird" especially for that connection). :-D

Black Adam, lol!
I would call it "reasonable open mind" (I'm not fond of extreme attitudes in any sense ...)

If you are looking for a Napalm Death connection (although it's more "Godflesh" flavored than Napalm), check out the "Vae Solis" album.

Scorn did dubstep before dubstep.
