Today’s Random Album of the Day is O from xbxrx. This is experimental noise rock. I love this shit!

I really like this whole album. It’s very good. But no question – this is an acquired taste. Even though there are 10 songs it’s only a 9 minute long EP. So that tells you something. It’s loud, intense, erratic, angry, and discordant.

As a bit of note keeping for the Random Album of the Day series – this is my last album from a band that starts with X. Hard to believe but there aren’t many and most XDS falls under E in my collection. So I’m basically out of X albums… So if I roll an X with the dice, I’ll have to re-roll or maybe I’ll force that into a compilation selection.

Rating: 9.6

Favorite Track(s): “Decay” is quite the intro. “Life is Our Grave” is intense. “Opposed Reality” rips. “I Can See” rocks. “Stop the Signs” is so good. “Knowledge is Death” is a head banger! “Comfort” grooves. Not a bad track really. They are all super short and super intense.

Keep or Trash: Keep.
