Disc 11: Expanded Music (1982-83) - 11 discs in to the noise adventure. Txt talks about robots becoming really kind of okay with being tortured to death. Erik hears a runaway player piano and we both become overtaken by the harsh noise wall.
Disc 10: Solonoise (1982) - 10 discs in to the noise adventure. We talk about how this might be the first real noise album on the Merzbox. Txt forgets what he's supposed to be working on and Erik describes Chewbacca in a way nobody ever needed to think about.
Disc 9: Yantra Material Action (1982) - 9 discs in to the noise adventure. Txt talks about being stuck in a windstorm surrounded by clanging pots and pans. Erik actually wants a Merzbow track to be longer. And we both talk about spaceships and Godzilla.
Disc 8: Material Action for 2 Microphones (1981) - 8 discs in to the noise adventure. Txt talks about a stapler, Erik talks about a weird Austrian guy, and we all hang out with DJ Merzbow for a while. The results are.... mixed, at best.
Disc 7: Paradoxa Paradoxa (1981) - 7 discs in to the noise adventure. The first recorded live Merzbow performance! Erik and txt talk about loops and tapes and violin and radio and organ, so much organ. Also a brief detour into assaulting bagpipes.
Disc 6: Collection Era Vol. 3 (1981-2) - 6 discs in to the noise adventure. The best disc yet! Erik and txt (mostly) like this album - and also discuss the Boss Dr. Rhythm drum machine for... probably too long.
Disc 5: Collection Era Vol. 2 (1981) - 5 discs in to the noise adventure. Erik and txt talk about bad Van Halen songs, jazz bass, and the most enjoyable 20 minutes of the Merzbox so far: Merztronics.
Disc 4: Collection Era Vol. 1 (1981) - 4 discs in to the noise adventure. Erik and txt talk about the start of a new era for Merzbow.... a dual adventure! Also another of Erik's anecdotes about a previous episode and lots and lots of ring modulation.
Disc 3: Remblandt Assemblage (1980) - 3 discs in to the noise adventure. We talk dada, what the hell an egg cutter is, and genuinely enjoy most (okay... some) of a Merzbox disc.
Disc 2: Metal Acoustic Music (1980) - 2 discs in to the noise adventure. Erik talks about John Cage's Indeterminacy and txt thinks that Merzbow lost a spoon somewhere?
