Ultrabunny “Volume Merchants / Unsafe At Any Age” LP
This mysterious, minimally packaged record showed up here a few days ago with a note only stating “Since 1988 – Ultrabunny – “Nuff Said!”. Apparently that actually wasn’t “nuff said”, since I had no idea what I was putting on my turntable, but it turned out for the best, as any one-sheet for the record would’ve made it sound less listenable than it is. As hinted, Ultrabunny has been dealing in shredding, experimental noise-rock for over two decades now. It’s pretty searing stuff, but if you like music with the oft-vilified “noise” tag attached to it, you’re probably in for a treat. It lacks the song structures of purveyors like Sonic Youth or Lightning Bolt, but it also won’t burn out your vestibular system or have your family screaming for you to turn it off, so there’s a nice balance. You can get it on vinyl (limited to 300 copies) for $8-$10 via some Gemm links (about halfway down the page) at Ultrabunny.com.
