After their third album, AIDS Wolf released one of their most unique records in an already singular discography – a 12″” bringing together some of the most important noise musicians of the past decade to remix their cover of Throbbing Gristle”s “”Very Friendly””. The results: Nightmarish kraut conjured by The Flying Luttenbachers” Weasel Walter; sparse, terrifying soundscapes from Wolf Eyes” John Olson; searing noise and auto-tune from Baltimore lab rats Nautical Almanac; manic, pounding rhythms from Jason Forrest; and alienating, reverb-drenched skree from Cleveland”s Emeralds. Note: The unremixed cover version appears on the AIDS Wolf “”March to the Sea”” LP/, it bears some surface resemblance to the No Wave bands of New York”s late ”70s, and yes, it”s also quasi-Beefheartian, but this simmeringly ugly-beautiful non-categorizable thing that is the band is like an object lesson in modern, progressive, painfully pure music.”” – LA WEEKLYVery Friendly (Weasel Walter Remix)Very Friendly (John Olson Remix)Very Friendly (Jason Forrest Remix)Very Friendly (Emeralds Remix)Very Friendly (Nautical Almanac Remix)
