Lustfaust have been on myspace for a while now (Mike runs it but both Guido Van Baelen and Judy Berger are involved) so we’d like to extend our thanks for the encouragement and support.
It would be impractical to name check everybody so here’s a run down of some of the cool bands who have helped us recently.
Lord Beard
LORD BEARD is a culmination of intense insomnia and boredom,- coupled with cartoons, shitty action and zombie movies, junk food, video games, slayer, aphex twin, wishin trent reznor would some play me in time splitters two, he can bring method and or red, those crazy ninjas,- and the fact that whenever i would walk into the digital ferret, there would be the most herendous crap playing over the in house speakers, and i kept saying to myself, i could do this. no. i could do this one better. so i tried. it didnt work. but i had fun. From time to time LORDBEARD collaborates on projects, such as HATCH (former Ominous Owl), The Noise Brothers Collective, and The Retarded Panda, Even Singing For The Koshi Rikdo Assassination Plot, due to the sudden absence of their fulltime vocalist. …. recent developements : barbe de seignur & shukun agohige Lord Beard is also The Founder of AcidRadio records and Cofounder of its affiliate GeoffDam. Lord Beard is also Associated with the fine Men (and ladies[?]) @ PlayskullRecords a subsidiary arm of the PlaySkullGroup entertainment commitee for cultural reorganizationalization

Boss Tweeter
Building on fifty years of Rock n’Roll, Boss Tweeter has created a sound that draws upon many sonic elements that have been familiar to listeners for decades. From the reverb-drenched tones of surf guitar, to Brit-Pop harmonies, to the more aggressive rock sounds of the 90′s, Boss Tweeter has built a cohesive and catchy sound since their formation in 2003. With two EP’s under their belt, radio play on Seattle’s 107.7 the End and a consistent touring schedule, the band continues to make their mark on the Seattle indie scene.

His Son Elroy
Elroy embarked on the 1ST, of what soon became 4, extended play compact discs. At times Elroy have been criticised as both inaccessible and massively retro (100-150 years or so; almost Goliardic by some accounts). But despite regular citations from the dust-covered, bottle green vaults of the Victorian traditionalists and a tendency to weave numerical conundrums into poetical abstractions; this has never been their intention. Elroy’s treatment of ‘time’ throughout 4×4 owes more to the recent proximity of the Borbonaise intelligentsia than to any need to look (and feel) ‘antique’.

Sputtering Kettle
Sputtering Kettle is a West Philadelphia improvising trio that combine hip hop, jazz and traditional Indian Ragas with noise, IDM, freejazz and freakout. Expect radios to be placed in the audience and bandmembers to join the audience in singing, chanting, stomping or calisthenics. Ladies and gentlemen and walruses, this is experimental improvised electro-acoustic ethnic sounds with field recordings, tabla, synths, didgeridoos, circuit-bent oddities, chattering radios, flutes, guitar, drums, 23 pedals, junk percussion and hand-operated theremin-like effects processors. And while sounds cook onstage, the kettles join the audience in performing this barrage with them. You’ll have to hear it to believe it. When our powers combine, we are Sputtering Kettle!

Nancy Elizabeth Cunliffe
Nancy is a 22 year-old singer and songwriter from Lancashire who has been writing and performing her music for several years now, often stunning audiences into silence with her unique voice and original songs. Think classic British folk hinting at the vocal style of Sandy Denny, Jacqui McShee or Vashti Bunyan – her range encompasses swooping melodies to pure piercing highs.

composite.human
composite.human first began in 1995 under the name ‘Obscurity’ — the first recordings were very crude, using a microphone, guitar, digital delay/pitch-shift pedal, and dual-cassette deck…during this time, an early recording was featured in the last issue of ‘Friends of the Draft Resistance’, an underground noise ‘zine…but due to lack of funds and decent recording equipment, the project was put on hold…enter 2003, where with the aid of Cubase SX, Acid Pro 4, and other software, the project was re-born with a new name and newer, more focused sound. now, in 2006, composite.human is still going strong… more tunes can be found here : http://www.demostreams.com/?ID=compositehuman

It’s finally “La chambre Froide” with released his first album “yell of fright” in 2003,for an international distribution, then in 2004 his 2nd album “Son of Evil” is released by the american label “BLC Productions”.This album had a good success and OG begin to be well-known in the Electro-Dark circle. He took part in many compilation and make many remix for other bands like Alien Produckt, Synaptic defect, Hiv+, Grendel… Autumn 2005, OG is back with his 3rd album “tomb of the dead”, it’s more violent and dancefloor album.
