Throat: Bareback (Stripped & Remasked) 2CD

Two years after the release of their second album, "Bareback" (Svart Records, 2018), Throat close the cycle on the album with a double remix version. Presumably a first within the noise rock scene, Throat invited artists from the international noise/industrial scene to select a song off "Bareback" and deconstruct/destroy/rearrange the raw studio tracks provided to them.

As a result, "Bareback (Stripped & Remasked)" contains a remixed version of the original album - not just once, but twice! The result is a wild ride of sonic madness ranging from brutal harsh noise to more experimental industrial sounds and everything in between. Simultaneously presenting completely new material from the artists involved and Throat paying homage to influential genres of sound not necessarily so obvious in their usual material.

The artists/groups participating on "Bareback (Stripped & Remasked)" include Government Alpha, Himukalt, Deison, Black Leather Jesus, Sshe Retina Stimulants, Vanhala, Heat Signature, Like Weeds, Linekraft, Lasse Marhaug, Concrete Mascara, Erratix, Niku Daruma, Kazuma Kubota, Jarl and Keränen.

Final word of warning: if you are looking for straight-up noise rock or new Throat material and can't stand to have your head pierced by harsh noise power tools, this release may not be for you.
