Different Noises 108

This isn’t a playlist that asks politely. It kicks off with PJ Harvey’s feral “50ft Queenie” and doesn’t let up—charging through noise, art-rock, outsider pop, and doom-laced experimentalism. From The Souless Creed’s jagged declarations to Orcutt Shelley Miller’s garage surrealism, the early stretch is all teeth and distortion. But it’s not just abrasion—it’s atmosphere. Moon’s “The Spaniard” drifts through haunted parkland, while Jess Ribeiro and David McClymont bring a melancholic shimmer. Moff Skellington and Neon Kittens twist language and form into something gloriously unhinged. Then the ground shifts: Tortoise’s remix pulses with precision, The Prize and Claude9 bring melodic defiance, and LUCKYANDLOVE’s “I Am Human” offers a moment of synth-driven clarity. The final descent is pure ritual—Abhorrent Expanse, The W Likes, and Grand Atomic summon sludge, drone, and mythic weight. It’s a journey from post-punk snarl to cosmic doom, stitched together by artists who refuse to play nice. For those yearning for the edges of sound, this is a map of the uncharted.
