Various Artists

2006 release  ** "Israel has a growing noise scene with a growing number of artists, who from time to time organize noise nights/shows – such as the one recorded here on "Noise.IL", sometime in the summer of 2005.
While not as large as the Japanese or anywhere near as large as the American noise scene, the Israeli scene is alive and kicking in various styles. Each one of the six artists on this nine-track album shows a different part of the spectrum, from easy-listening tracks such as the bizarrely dramatic opening track, MortalManifest's "Fear establishment for Lucifer Jupiter", or the foggy closing track, Barzel's "Rebuild the temple now" (who weren't a part of the live show), to harsh and complex tracks such as Gedem's "My Bleeding Ears" or Wreck & Drool's "Idle Petitions". Highlights in my opinion are Gaop and Aboolele's "Telemarketing the temple of hatred 2005" due to the combination between the buzzing background, low-pitch electronic drones and the high-pitched squeals, glitch, and narration which create an overall apocalyptic feeling, as well as Drone Lebanon's "Zionistzermatism" where the religiously-connected speech is swallowed by a wave of electronics – as if the world itself is saying how insignificant one being (or on opinion) is, as if zooming in and out of earth."
