Easy Listening for the Hard of Hearing

by Boyd Rice & Frank Tovey

Easy Listening for the Hard of Hearing cover art

An uncompromising collaboration between American noise provocateur Boyd Rice (NON) and British synth-pop pioneer Frank Tovey (Fad Gadget). The entirely instrumental album bypasses synthesizers entirely, utilizing found sounds, tape loops, and contact microphones attached to various surfaces to construct harsh, rhythmic soundscapes. It stands as a pure, brutally minimalist exercise in early industrial noise.
