Bulk Carrier – “Derbyshire” Tape

Bulk Carrier is a HNW project masterminded by USA based artist Kevin Blodgett, otherwise known from the Death Industrial project Sallow Statue, Noise project I Discern as well as being founder of the excellent Blood Ties label. This latest output features two brand new 15 minute slabs of fast paced harsh noise crunch and rumble with an evolving almost-dynamic take on the genre. With no audible space to breathe, these two sides of tape are a truly terrorising and claustrophobic piece of work befitting the immortalisation of the sinking of the MV Derbyshire, the largest British ship to ever have been lost at sea. The ship sank in 1980 during a typhoon off the southern coast of Japan, claiming the lives of all 44 people on board. The tape is presented on half black/half white shells inside a black bag with insert.
