This is one fucked up release. Bethell is the brain child of one Justain Netherly, another ohio resident with some desfunctional ideas. At first you might think this is a grind record, but only if said grind band had Masonna and Merzbow in it's ranks. Then there is all the Galaxy 500/My Bloddy Valentine space/psych parts... then back into the sick noise grind blur. completly fucked.A fucking amazing 20-"song" private-press CD of totally fucked free-death/grind noise/noise pop from this seriously obscure Ohio project, issued on the always-confounding Epicene Sound Replica imprint. Each track is an explosion of lo-fi, multi-tracked guitar noise and retarded/jumbled hyperspeed shred metal buried in a shitstorm of crumbling distortion, with weirdly pretty pop hooks crawling out from under the relentless wall of urk and fucked up grindcore vocal vomit. Imagine Masonna and Hanatarashi and Faxed Head and Galaxy 500 all playing at the same time, with the session recorded on a disintegrating 4- track, a white-hot gob of insane, gibbering grind blur and psychedelic death metal noise. Totally fucking excellent. Comes in a simple red/black xerox wallet sleeve.
