Foreboding rumbles of looming disaster. Militant instructions of control. Sirens wail but is it a threat or a warning? Radio interference of voice and intent from positions of power. Feedback over the air waves to disarm and interrupt.
Smoke and flame, alarms sound in the night. It rings in the distance but goes unanswered. Citizens equipped with metal and scrap, prepare for declarations against injustice. Speakers echo asking for control but fall ill on a crowd deaf to oppression. Police structures burn as symbols of systemic discrimination.
Following releases from Unrest Productions, Fusty Cunt, Chrpytus and American Damage, CONTROLLED OPPOSITION return with four tracks of Midwest heavy artillery. Taking influence from domestic and international acts, C.O. crafts power-electronics that feel both archetypal and atypical. Wholly unique and consistently incited by the injustices thrust at them from their region of operation. Minneapolis is a war zone of racial injustice, militarized police, and political control and does nothing but fuel the fire at which C.O. sits atop of. This C30 of punishing electronics also features guest input from Crepuscular, Gnawed and Body Carve. A true whose who of the local movement, adding ammunition to an already overheated firearm.
Invasion, assassination, conspiracy. The flow of information for the better of the public. What truths do we Americans know? Public outcry and outrage isn’t enough, action is all that’s left. Defund, abolish, overthrow.
“Can America meet this great challenge? For a few moments, let us look at a America, let us listen to America, to find the answer to that question…”
"Axebreaker" is a self-proclaimed anti-fascist power electronics project that rejects the ideological grey zone that haunts much of the noise landscape. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 6, 2020

I've been waiting over 20 years for this. Finally an outfit that effectively and efficiently executes on the "Streetcleaner" mechanized metal scaffold. Can't get enough it. A reliable disappointment
