Long shot: Can anyone recommend me structureless harsh noise. I'm doing a really mind-numbing code maintenance task and I need something to blast all thought out of my head

Currently I'm listening to https://impermanence.bandcamp.com/track/ii and if I can't find a good thing to switch to after that I'm going with this YouTube asmr recording of a washing machine

II, by Impermanence

from the album Even if we talk about love in our fantasy, this iron and concrete won't convey its warmth.

@viq @mcc I was going to suggest this as well. Not a ton of harsh stuff there though. Maybe "demolition site"?

Possibily the only noise generator in the world that effectively blocks the sounds of a nearby construction site!

@mcc I was going to recommend the albums "The Eyes of Stanley Pain" by Download, or “Delìrium Còrdia” by Fantômas, but after hearing a sample of what you're currently listening to, both of those are going to be far too structured 😂

@mcc I'd recommend the 4-disc Resolution of Rememberance but I can't find it online and I don't remember where I got it from (it was like a decade ago, website is probably gone). That's just how it goes with noise musicians I guess ​​

@aluralura Interesting!

My first impression was that this sounds lovely on my desktop speakers, but I'd expect it to be awful on head-/earphones (as the stereo channels seem so unrelated). So I plugged in my IEMs (for science), and actually it's still really good! Not sure if my first impression was plain wrong or if there's something going on I haven't comprehended yet :)

@nex If I had to take a wild guess, maybe it's because it was originally on cassette? Like at 4:32 there's a really high pitch but it's kind of wobbly and soft. Some of GA's other stuff also has that quality, so it might just be his flavor of noise.

There are some cw in the title of some of their song (gore, amputation, sexual assault, …) but maybe it's what you are looking for soundwise?
