The liner notes enclosed with this album state that: "Freak's Amour is the
audio situation project of Stuart Werner. Audio situationism is an approach to
music as sonic construction rather than as the tonal (or tonally composed
atonal) product of conventional music theory. This method minimizes the
necessity for technical manipulation of chords and notes on a particular
instrument and allows the composer to arrange actual sounds. An instrument is
treated as a sound generator and, conversely, non musical sources of sound are
treated as instruments." With that in mind you need to throw away much of what
you think is conventional music in order to truly appreciate sonic envelope
which is being pushed to it's limits. The album is a classic industrial fans
dream come true. Huge ranting tirades of vocals combined with enough found
sound to make an antique collector jealous produce raucous cacophony which
gives me a migraine every single I time I try to sit through the entirety of
this album. In fact, I'm getting so ill just listening to album at the very
moment of writing this review that I'm going to have to quit typing and mediate
in a quiet room to rid myself of the ringing in my skull.
