Music by Napalm Death, Brutal Truth, A.C., Sore Throat and O.L.D. are being featured in an award-winning multi-media art exhibition in Madrid, Spain.
The exhibit at the La Casa Encendida gallery is called “Ruidos, Silencios y la Transgresion Mordaz De Fluxus al Techno-Noise (”Noises, Silences and the Biting Transgression From Fluxus to Techno-Noise”), and according to the promotional literature, it “portrays a creative link between artists belonging to the Fluxus group and their fascination with out-there music.”
We’re guessing they got a grant from the dudes at the Earache label or something, because their choices for noise all come from the company that anchored grindcore in the late ’80s: “Scum” by Napalm Death (pictured above), “Everyone Should be Killed” by A.C., “Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses” by Brutal Truth, “Disgrace to the Corpse of Sid” by Sore Throat and “Old Lady Drivers” by O.L.D.
“The artists involved claim to express rejection of traditional values and pursue an interest in noise within their work, particularly forming a connection between noise and transgression,” reports Blabbermouth.net. “With this in mind, soundbites from some of Earache’s most grinding releases prove fitting to express the artists’ ideas and visions.”
The exhibit will remain on display until September 9. Napalm Death’s “Mass Appeal Madness” video will be on display here until Hell freezes over:
