Part of the high-velocity thrill of Masonna is his live performance – there are few noise artists as keyed into the significance of the body as Maso Yamazaki. But at its best, his recorded work still communicates that palpable physicality to the listener, and Frequency L.S.D. is a great example, a series of rapid-fire blasts of contorted vocals and hyperactive FX pedal mangling. In its squirming, plastic tonality, you can, somehow, hear the ghosts of primitive electronics and the deeper, darker end of Kosmische – they’re just flying past you at speed, as though you’re stuck on a bullet train to Armageddon.
