WSK and Noisebath PH once again collaborate for Torture Garden, a purgatorial night of raw, visceral noise. A demolition derby featuring luminaries of underground noise scenes from Manila, Bali, Tokyo, and the Visayas region.

It presents music as a coprophagic organism, unable to break away from a cycle of excretion and regurgitation. Equipped with contact mics, circuit-bent machines, and extended techniques, these artists — which include post-apocalyptic metal fetishists and a sleaze-and-schlock noisegrind outfits — scavenge from sonic refuse, dive neck-deep into music’s landfill, to unleash atonal and infernal torrents, test the thresholds of listeners, ultimately in pursuit of aural extremities.

Featuring:

Chris Murillo
Lush Death (from Noisebath PH)
Kayu Nakada
Sex Makina (from Noisebath PH)
Sooncrazy (from Chaos Non Musica)
