最終物質 = Saishiyu Bushitsu

Released

An early release for Kazuyuki Kishino aka KK Null, maybe best known as a member of long-running noise-rock group Zeni Geva, Saishiyu Bushitshu must’ve been particularly face-flattening when first self-released in 1985. Two side-long works for guitar, voice, and metal percussion, it’s an unrelenting whirlwind of overheating noise. What’s most impressive is Null’s ability to improvise in the moment; you can hear someone, here, responding in real-time, with lightning-quick moves, to the way these two pieces, “Ultima” and “Materia” are playing out. He’d go on to release a mountain of albums of varying quality; Saishiyu Bushitsu’s ferocity outlasts them all.
