''Norildivoth Crallos-Lomrixth Urthiln'' (also referred to as ''2nd 18/O4 Norildivoth Crallos-Lomrixth Urthiln'') is an album by the experimental duo Orthrelm featuring guitarist Mick Barr and drummer Josh Blair. The band's first LP-length release, it was recorded in 2001, and was issued in 2002 by Three One G. Reception In a review for AllMusic, Stewart Mason wrote: "there are elements of death metal in Mick Barr's ultra-shred guitar style and Josh Blair's neck-snapping tempos, but there's at least as much Sonny Sharrock and John Bonham, among other influences you wouldn't expect... This is a true rarity, an album that fans of Slayer, King Crimson and Eugene Chadbourne should be able to get into about equally." In a year-end review of 2002's best releases, Brent Burton of the Washington City Paper commented: "In a good-to-great year of hard rockin' art-tweakage..., Orthrelm earns the top-10 nod for having the least comprehensible worldview.

Avant-garde Music
Avant-garde music is music that is considered to be at the forefront of innovation in its field, with the term "avant-garde" implying a critique of existing aesthetic conventions, rejection of the status quo in favor of unique or original elements, and the idea of deliberately challenging or alienating audiences. Avant-garde music may be distinguished from experimental music by the way it adopts an extreme position within a certain tradition, whereas experimental music lies outside tradition. Distinctions Avant-garde music may be distinguished from experimental music by the way it adopts an extreme position within a certain tradition, whereas experimental music lies outside tradition. In a historical sense, some musicologists use the term "avant-garde music" for the radical compositions that succeeded the death of Anton Webern in 1945,Paul Du Noyer (ed.), "Contemporary", in the ''Illustrated Encyclopedia of Music: From Rock, Pop, Jazz, Blues and Hip Hop to Classical, Folk, Worl ...

Experimental Music
Experimental music is a general label for any music or music genre that pushes existing boundaries and genre definitions. Experimental compositional practice is defined broadly by exploratory sensibilities radically opposed to, and questioning of, institutionalized compositional, performing, and aesthetic conventions in music. Elements of experimental music include Indeterminacy in music, indeterminate music, in which the composer introduces the elements of chance or unpredictability with regard to either the composition or its performance. Artists may also approach a hybrid of disparate styles or incorporate unorthodox and unique elements. The practice became prominent in the mid-20th century, particularly in Europe and North America. John Cage was one of the earliest composers to use the term and one of experimental music's primary innovators, utilizing Indeterminacy (music), indeterminacy techniques and seeking unknown outcomes. In France, as early as 1953, Pierre Schaeffer had ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Asristir Vieldriox
Asristir Vieldriox (sometimes spelt Asristirveildrioxe) is an EP released by the avantgarde band Orthrelm. It was released by Troubleman Unlimited Records in February 2002. Despite having 99 tracks on it (the maximum any CD can hold), each one is only 5 to 15 seconds in length, therefore making the entire release only 13 minutes long in total. Due to this it cannot be classed as an album but an EP instead. Each track mainly consists of quick and abrasive guitar lines with corresponding drum parts. There are no vocals. The style of this EP is best described as Abstract, Grindcore, Experimental and Avantgarde. Reception In a review for AllMusic, William York wrote: "this is constantly jarring, nerve-rattling stuff. In fact, due to the extreme compositional density and compression of this music, one is tempted afterwards to throw on some Anton Webern or early Napalm Death -- two infamous champions of brevity -- just to decompress a little bit." He recommended the album for "curios ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as ''All Music Guide'' by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
