Those █ █ being the Unpunished : Appendix tape (reviewed here) and the █ █ Incursions tape (reviewed here). Extraterritoriality is a six █ █ track / 24 minute, pro-pressed and labeled tape is also limited █ █ to 102 copies, and according to the liner notes was recorded in █ █ æGrand BexiaÆ which clearly alludes to thematic preoccupations. █ █ █ █ Speaking of theme, Side A addresses æBrexitÆ and the current █ █ turmoil on both sides of the stay / leave divide, while also █ █ juxtaposing this against earlier debates over such matters as █ █ Commonwealth immigration. But like all good post-industrial music █ █ no clear stance or easy answer is provided either (cleverly Side █ █ A of the tape is noted to be labelled as æexitÆ). Cleansing █ █ Violence opens the tape a straight down the line Am Not track █ █ with pulsing bass tone, jagged noise and aggressive processed █ █ vocals, which could have easily been lifted from any of the main █ █ albums. In other words an excellent track, but when lyrical █ █ phrase ôrivers of bloodö is used it would no doubt be a direct █ █ reference to Enoch PowellÆs infamous and controversial political █ █ speech from 1968, and perhaps within the context of this release █ █ is referring to the extreme right views of fringe Brexiters. █ █ Things then take a decided left turn with Better Together chats █ █ quite an experimental angle with simplistic rhythmic pulse, █ █ distant noise and cleanly spoken vocals. The sonic approach then █ █ gets even weirder on Ever Get The Feeling YouÆve Been Cheated?, █ █ which features a sample of Kirsty MacCollÆs song A New England, █ █ but slowed down to a crawling pace which then generates a █ █ euphorically maudlin tone. Added to this are 1970Æs interview █ █ samples which decry the loss of æEnglandÆ to mismanagement of █ █ immigration, while the track is concluded with Johnny Rotten █ █ sneeringly asking the question of the trackÆs title. Conceptually █ █ this track is extremely strong and certainly effective in a █ █ pitch-black humor sort of way. █ █ █ █ Flipping over to Side B, it thematically it returns to focusing █ █ on Hong Kong returning to China (this side is labeled æentryÆ), █ █ which was previously addressed by the track Home from The █ █ Developing World album (reviewed here). In fact the track █ █ Homecoming plays out as an alternate instrumental version of █ █ Home, given the same rolling militant rhythmic structure is █ █ employed with crowd babble and protest singing overlaid. The █ █ following track Red Emperor, White Forces arc back to a directly █ █ punishing power electronics track, with wailing crowd chatter, █ █ incessant pounding / grinding structures and flange processed █ █ vocals. Great stuff. I Will Not Be Reborn In The PeopleÆs █ █ Republic Of China is the last on offer siting within more of an █ █ ambient frame of reference with intertwining synth drones and █ █ central interview sample talking of reincarnation being a █ █ spiritual matter and not a political concern. █ █ █ █ By now Am NotÆs name and status in the underground is well █ █ established. Extraterritoriality is equally high quality as the █ █ balance of TamonÆs output, but also slanted towards a more █ █ playfully experiential expression. Evidently this is explained by █ █ the fact that for this release Tamon applied a methodology to █ █ work faster than typical and within a limited space to time. But █ █ regardless of how this came about, I am pleased a secured a copy █ █ of this quite limited release. █ █ █ ▀██▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀██▀ █░:iMPORTANT STATEMENT_ ░█ █ █ █ This release is for preview.
