Extreme Chafing
01 What is your name / age /
nationality ?
Joe. 30. And I live in New Mexico
in the USA.
02 How did you get into noise ?
Twodeadsluts Onegoodfuck. I can't
remember if I downloaded some of their stuff or found one of their
records at the record store first, but both of those did happen.
After that, I started getting into it more as I was able to get it
for review when i used to do a zine. Soundo Maso Records used to send
me a lot of stuff. Great label.
03 How did you choose the name
of your project / What does it mean to you ?
Before I quit eating processed
food and that garbage, I would semi-frequently have stomach distress.
This combined with low quality toilet paper one generally finds at
work, as well as sweating in the summer typically resulted in a very
painfully chafed ass. The name Extreme Chafing is in honor of my
suffering of chafed ass. The first recording Chass (which I
think is still waiting to be released) says it all.
04 Which one of your releases
would make the best entry point into your work ?
Probably the Epidermal Nevi,
Neoplasms, & Cysts 3xCDr on Altar of Waste Records. Nearly 4
hours of material that spans well over a year in recording dates.
For
someone looking for a shorter, easier entry point, maybe the Sand in
My Crack 3" CDr on Forever Escaping Boredom Records.
05 How do you record ? (live,
sequencing, multi-tracking etc..)
Typically I record from mixer to
dual tape deck. Then I rip to computer and do straight editing
(cutting out shit I don't like, splitting tracks, etc). I don't do
anything fancy at all.
06 What is your favorite piece
of gear ?
Being a gear junkie, this is a
difficult question as there are so many that always get used. I'm
gonna have to choose 2 and say my Boss DD7 and Digitech Grunge. But
there's oh so much more....
07 Do you play live ? How is it
different from your releases ?
I have a few times. The only real
difference is that I plan my setup before doing a show. I fiddle and
switch when recording at home.
08 Who would you like to collab
/ make a split with ?
Extreme Hair Stench. He did an
amazing track on the What the Hell is a Jiggawatt?!?
Compilation and we could do a collab/split about head lice. I've
never really done a collab before, but i have a couple splits (one w/
Vasectomy Party, the other w/ Nightmare Task Force, yet to be
released) where the other project has followed my theme, which is
totally awesome.
09 Do you listen to other types
of sound/music ? Which ones ?
Yes, though I mainly listen to
noise. Other stuff I'm into includes grindcore, black metal, drone,
doom metal, doom-drone, punk, hardcore, some industrial, etc.
10 What is your favorite record
at the moment ?
I don't have much time for
listening to records with work, wife, and kids, but the last tape I
listened to was pretty awesome. It was En Nihil / Compactor split. I
have Deche Charge's Disgrace to the Corpse of Seth LP waiting
to be played and I'm sure that will rule.
