The Pig and The Machine, Harry Cloud Music

Peek-A-Boo Magazine

The thing I didn't expect from Harry Cloud is being so flexible in respect to forms of self-expression. It's probably the first thing you should know before listening to "The Pig And The Machine" - nothing is obvious. Even though some things would seem obvious to you like the introduction to the opening "Fantasia", it doesn't mean that Cloud would keep on going through the same paths. He needs just a few seconds to transform himself into the ghost of Tom Waits badtriping in Lynch's Red Room. And then change the background. You'd hear the tonalities of rebellious youth in......

Take Effect

A singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who now calls Los Angeles home, Harry Cloud, has been involved in Orphan Goggles, Fannyland and COPS, clearly doesn't appear to be interested in anything mundane, as this 5th solo album defies categorization in ways that bring punk, metal and alt-rock ideas to mind. In a very bold move, Cloud puts one of the longest tracks in the lead off position as the orchestral dirge of "Fantasia" sets an ominous mood that builds into a soaring, majestic display of metallic yet melodic sounds, and "Momo Island" continues the creativity with some dreamy garage-rock that's still a......

Monolith Cocktail

What we have here is a blaze of magic mushroom stoner bubblegum stoner psychedelia, a lo-fi inventive curse of tomorrow and yesterday when morrow meets tomorrow in a slaphappy kind of way. Imagine if your radio was wired to play the soundtrack to your most out there sordid wish, this could well be playing as it jumps from the semi classical to the music that the not quite best looking member of a 70's edition of Top Of The Pops audience would wiggle her arse to: not sexy but getting away with it. This album is inventive, dirty, funny, dark......

Dermatillomania is an obsessive disorder characterized by picking at one’s own skin. Google that shit and it will give you nightmares. It also happens to be the title of the first track on this album from Harry Cloud. Also, irony of ironies, it is what listening to this record on repeat, trying to figure out how to characterize it, makes me feel. I want to pick at my fucking skin. It doesn’t make any sense to me. There are acoustic grunge tracks like the above mentioned, there are computer-generated loops, there are chipmunk voices, there are butt rock ‘70s guitar......

Harry Cloud's After School Special, Harry Cloud Music

Razorcake

Holy eclecticism! These seven songs by singer-songwriter Harry Cloud run the gamut from sludgy black metal to creepy electronica to ‘70s good-timey Bay City Rollers sounds. I like them all for the most part, even the fascinating reinterpretation of Aerosmith’s “Janie’s Got a Gun,” whose original is in the running for worst song ever, but this one is not. There is little or no way to pigeon hole this one, and, in large part, that’s what makes this work.-The Lord Kveldulfr (White Worm)...

Yeah I Know it Sucks

Artist: HARRY CLOUD Title: Harry Cloud’s After School Special Keywords: black metal metal doom metal experimental electronic experimental rock punk rock Los Angeles When someone French describes Harry Cloud as a genius, you better take it seriously. Full of paranoid thoughts and dressed in school uniform I dived into this Harry Cloud’s After School Special and could only say that the ‘genius’ comment was well deserved and perfectly placed… What an album this is! It started with ‘Graveyar Duncle’ that knows exactly how to stick its fingers under your skin to gain its full attention. Drums and a piano bit that sets the......

Dreadful Discs

Another wild album of total creative expression from Mr. Cloud, hopping between noise rock, country, techno, drone, broadway, jazz and unabashed pop to produce a bewildering, terrifying, sugar-coated journey into his warped psyche. The Christmas-gone-wrong packaging reflects how this staggers the magical and the brutal. If you want a taste, go check out the soaring rock-ambient ‘Away’ and then contrast with the groovy, sax-laden tuition-jam ‘Balloons’ or the shimmering, pounding headfuck of ‘Your Mom is Dead’. There’s some sound sounds. Styles, textures and ideas in abundance....

Brazil 3.0

Initialement, je pensais avoir du mal à remplir cette rubrique avec 3 choix mensuels, mais densification de la qualité, affaiblissement de mes critères d'intérêt, ou alors coup de chance dans mes explorations, voilà que les perles se multiplient dans cette huître virtuelle qu'est Bandcamp. Ce mois-ci, du sacrément enthousiasmant avec le retour du grand Harry Cloud, les dkoiffants Whipper et les radioactifs Polonium. Quand Harry Cloud ne pose pas en mère infanticide à moitié nu ou ne tourne pas des vidéos où il transforme sa fête d'anniversaire en meurtre gore, il concocte comme un Facteur Cheval du son, une musique......

Harry Cloud - Red Barn: Ok, I get serious douche chills from this guy's internet presence (seriously, I don't care that you write your band description as a weird rambly monologue and stop using so many backslashes, destroy all people in stupid guitar bands who think they are tortured artistic geniuses, nice rape joke lol f*ck you). BUT not gonna lie, the music is pretty good and Kate and I are mad about it. Slow f*cked up burnt out doomgazegaragewhatever for hating yourself and your surroundings w/ bits of Ty Segall, Sleep, Godflesh, Pink Floyd even?
