The Skull Defekts make some great freaky soundscapes. 'The Sound Of Defekt Skulls and Intense Cranium Contact (Feedbacking Gothenburg and Chicago)' is no exception. This is one epic track of dense noise serious sub bass rumblings, feedback and effects in a really cool sleeve. One for the Wolf Eyes heads. On Utech. This one will fuck the neighbours right off.

What their label says...

The Skull Defekts, represented by Henrik Rylander and Joachim Nordwall, were
invited in late September 2006 by the Chicago non-profit organization Lampo
to make their U.S. debut. With them they brought recorded sounds from their
home on the Swedish west-coast Gothenburg. A city breathing culture, it is
also Sweden's most important export harbor. While spending close to a week
in Chicago, Rylander and Nordwall carefully prepared a piece to be presented
on the Lampo event on September 30th. The duo recorded more sounds, searched
for the Skull sound of Chicago, and found inspiration from the city itself
and the people they met.
They traveled with ten mixing desks and Nordwall's custom Drone Machine,
ready to complete the project with sharp psychedelic & analog noise
treatments. They also investigated the CM von Hausswolff "There Are No Crows
Flying Around The Hancock Building" thesis. A crow was found below the
building, it did not seem to be able to fly. The Skull Defekts recorded it
while it was playing and testing it's wings in a nearby park. When the
Skulls left, the crow was still on the ground.
