and Plague Soundscapes (Anti-, 2003), containing 22 songs and sounding even more ferocious,
introduced their aesthetic of brief explosive outbursts of dementia.
Imagine Teenage Jesus & The Jerks with
Morton Subotnick on
synthesizers.
The EP Safety Second, Body Last (2005), containing just two lengthy
pieces, and
New Erections (anti-, 2007), containing several three-minute
"songs",
allowed more breathing space in between the sonic grenades
(Aotkpta).
Joey Karam's synthesizer and Gabe Serbian's drumming stood out.
