AMM - AMMMusic (1967)


I don't know if this was the first free-improv piece of music ever recorded, but it's definitely one of the most unlistenable. This is for you experimental noise freaks out there (I'm one of you... Or are you one of me?)

I've only been able to sit through this whole record a handful of times, it's not something you want to listen to except for the experience of listening; it begs the question "do the noises we make have consequences?"

One of the most angular and abstract experimental albums ever recorded, it's essentially two long tracks of feedback from broken instruments acting as a confrontational noise/sound collage...
