Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) This album impressively confirms the continuously high standard of Belgian avantgarde music, and it's not surprising at all that this jaw-dropping masterpiece was released in 1998 on the unique "Carbon 7" label, founded by Guy Segers and Alan Ward. The mastermind behind "Hardscore" is Frank Nuyts, an accomplished Belgian composer, whose writing style on "Methane" turns out as highly idiosyncratic, sometimes getting close to the territory of classic Zappa, "Art Bears", and "Slapp Happy". I recommend to take some time and dig deeper into Guy Segers' archive on Bandcamp, which contains lots of much sought-after "Carbon 7" titles, besides many other goodies, like Guy's own compositions, and tons of live recordings by "Univers Zéro" and several other bands Guy played with. Favorite track: Between The Treasure And The Sun - (Hardscore).

about

HARDSCORE, a group formed around the composer Frank NUYTS, is a blend of electric and acoustic instruments, and their music gives us the distinct impression of listening to a chamber orchestra.
The group take on a complex repertoire - with orchestral writting very close to that of Frank ZAPPA - and master it faultlessly.
Very few have succeeded so well in carrying off this mixture of ambition and surrealism.
New music is clearly alive and well, and living in Belgium.
