Various Artists - Metal Machine Music: Power to Consume, Vol. 1 [2xLP]
Release Date: November 28, 2025
Label: Legacy Recordings
Inspired by Lou Reed’s groundbreaking 1975 noise opus Metal Machine Music, this collection assembles a formidable lineup of sonic provocateurs—Aaron Dilloway, Drew McDowall, Thurston Moore, Pharmakon, The Rita, and Mark Solotroff—to explore the outer edges of distortion, feedback, and raw electronic texture. Each artist channels the spirit of Reed’s original manifesto of anti-music, pushing their own boundaries through modular synthesis, tape manipulation, harsh noise, and industrial decay. The result is a visceral, immersive experience that celebrates chaos, confronts structure, and redefines what music can be. Track List: Side A 1. Thurston Moore - Drone Cognizance Side B 1. Aaron Dilloway - Psychic Motor Disorder 2. Pharmakon - Blunt Instruments Side C 1. Drew McDowall - Feedback 2. Mark Solotroff - Terminal ’25 Side D 1. The Rita - 109 90
