"81/44" LP

（2014 / Art into Life)

 

表面：無作為に垂れ流れる電波劇場とメタル雑音を引き連れて20％ヘヴィに武装。時間軸に沿って野太いナタが何回でも繰り返し切り裂くのだがそこから血は出ない。スピーカーからは右翼と左翼が交互に拳をぶつけるのだが永遠に和解はしない。この暑くも寒くもない密室で耽る無為の反復。偶然通りかかった何人かの登場人物と、濡れた雑巾を叩きつけるかのような音の拳は生と死を交代させながら連続してそこに在るが、意味は無い。

 

裏面：間違いだらけの金属の物体がいじくり回る。ここでの動作は100％解放されている。ガラクタの嘶きは四方八方に飛び散ったり遠吠えしたりキキキキと引き攣ったり床を転げ回ったり唐突に心臓が止まったり暴力の衝動を代弁したりと忙しい。しかし気まぐれに転調する場面の表情はやがて奇妙な愛嬌を見せ始め、そのまま鮮度を保ちながら日本と英国に錆びた破片が吹き上がる。

 

 

Side A: 20% heavily armed with random discharges of radio-wave theatre and metal noise. Multiple blows with a heavy hatchet along the time axis, but no blood flows. From the speakers, the right and left wing exchange blows but reconciliation remains eternally unreachable. Steeped in idle repetition in a comfortably heated secret chamber. With several random passers-by, sounds like those made by slapping a wet towel alternate between life and death but in a continual state of existence. However, it was all meaningless.

 

Side B: Misshapen metal objects roll around randomly, 100% liberated in their movement. Junk noise flies about in every direction, howling at distant objects, wildly spasming, rolling around on the floor, having sudden heart failures, and constantly apologizing for its own violent impulses. Yes, finally the expression of those capricious modulations begins to show its charm, and losing none of its freshness rusted fragments fly up into the air in Japan and the UK.
