Download Borbetomagus & Hijokaidan - Both Noises End Burning album

Review by Jay Kim

Both Noises End Burning is a collaborative album between two of the most experimental noise bands, Borbetomagus and Hijokaidan. The album is a masterpiece of avant-garde music, showcasing the raw power and intensity of both groups.

The album is a collection of four tracks, each one a sprawling, chaotic journey into the heart of noise. The first track, "Burning Sky," is a 21-minute epic that builds slowly from a whisper to a roar, with layers of feedback and distortion building upon one another until the track reaches a cathartic climax.

The second track, "Cold Sun," is a more restrained affair, with sparse percussion and eerie electronics creating a haunting atmosphere. The third track, "Burning Stone," is a frenzied blast of noise, with screeching saxophones and distorted guitars battling for dominance.

The final track, "Endless Summer," is a 17-minute opus that is both beautiful and terrifying. The track begins with a gentle drone, but quickly builds into a wall of sound that is both overwhelming and awe-inspiring.

Summary by Jay Kim

Both Noises End Burning is a challenging, but rewarding listen. It is a testament to the power of noise music, and a reminder that sometimes the most beautiful art can come from the most chaotic and unpredictable sources.
