RecommendBunk Data make aggravating music, in a good way. Like the way sand aggravates a clam until the pearl is made, the three untitled tracks here push and shove, then pull back and see what has been sculpted. It is no accident, then, that their industrial noise and ambient is augmented by the sound of waves, oceanic and tonal. The combo produces an abrasive, yet comforting sound, as if during chaos the still, small voice of reassurance can be heard.
Silence-is Not Empty is as literal a label name can be given their approach. Bunk Data is one of the label’s best adepts at find deep meaning in routine sound, harsh lessons in listening that shock and awe on a personal, rather than communal, level. I feel like listening to this and quoting David Lynch: “I have his disease in me now.” It is a living disease, and it is beautiful.
