   Strange little collaboration this one. ‘This Will Hurt A Bit’ pairs up
   Outermost – who seem to be in a very blippy, whining frame of mind – and
   Holland’s Noisebitch, who focus on wreaking havoc with natural, acoustic
   sounds. Two very different takes on noise, with Noisebitch tending to
   stultify the Outermost output with a tirade of raucous creaks, springs,
   clutters and scathing blasts of noise, not to mention their standing at the
   forefront most of the time, volume-wise.
   With the Outermost noise being pretty thin, moments when Noisebitch does
   assume a less dominant role tend to suffer (’War In Heaven I’), the whole
   disc rarely becoming as dense as it perhaps could have; ‘Speaking In Tongues’
   is an example of this duo getting that excellent level of intensity and
   texture. But the interplay created by Noisebitch is still very effective,
   ‘War In Heaven II’ and ‘Wake Up Call (Light Rock)’ standing out as points
   where you get a real collaborative vibe – one artist listening to another to
   produce something which creatively works against what is already in
   existence.
   The shorter tracks tend to work the best; I find it a little common in
   collaborative projects that lengthy tracks can often devolve into being a bit
   tired and aimless. ‘This Will Hurt A Bit’ largely avoids this, although
   ‘What’s So Funny’ suffers a little. A few samples also serve to break up the
   noise, ‘Christian Pervert’ being another diatribe on religious perviness, the
   pace of sound slowing down to almost a crawl under the looped sample.
   I should also mention Marcel Herms’ artwork – fabulous, creepy stuff! The
   disc’s cover is all in full colour, also containing a black and white insert,
   all laden with Marcel’s drawings and paintings.
   (Night Science #1)

   Japan’s Outermost and Holland’s Noisebitch fuse their independent outlooks to
   collaborate here on a most unique and strange release. “This Will Hurt A Bit”
   is appropriately titled as both artists here instigate and carry out “deeds
   of the damned” upon silence and tranquility respectively. Excellent, random
   attack and a “crossfire” of sounds, sometimes thick (sometimes delightfully
   thin) that tends to hemorrhage in various degrees of severity. Lots of sound
   variety, signals everywhere – popping, snorting, spewing, rattling and
   vomiting (?). Almost like a possessed toy store coming to life in the dead of
   the night. Nine “brain stimulators” included here-all of various lenghts,
   geared toward cerebellum shutdown (depending on your state of health and
   wellness). Fantastic looking full-color CD outer sleeve with liner notes etc.
   If you’re searching for something away from the standard noise assault then
   this might be exactly what the mad doctor ordered. (Short, Fast & Loud! #9)

   Outermost from Japan has been doing noise since ‘92/93 I think, but it has
   not been a very high profile noise maker. Small and limmited releases on
   tape, CDr and 7” have been scattered around the underround and also one full
   length CD. This sounds more like Noisebitch than Outermost. Outermost
   provides most likely the electronic noises, but Noisebitch’s concrete noise
   sounds are on top. Dry and untreated sounds of metal, junk and other things
   truly hurts a bit. This is not really loud. Most of the time it sounds like
   Noisebitch is cleaning the garage while playing Outermost on the boombox, but
   it works! It’s not the most usual noise you hear, and once in a while it’s
   better to listen to this type of sound than a wall of distortion pedal noise.
