about

Released at exactly the same time as ZF4, and also coordinated from the re-located Studio Amduscias in Albany, CA. More wonderful bunny artwork by Johnny Painter. As with ZF2, this contains a bunch of music from the extended family & friends of Zenflesh, folks from Kansas City, some of whom had also moved to the Bay Area, as well as new friends from there; by this time we finally had internet access, so there was also an open call for contributions. I was probably purposefully trying to be ridiculously diverse - which seemed to put off many if not most reviewers. Thanks to everybody who contributed.

"This comp contains some of the most well-performed experimentalism that I have ever heard. Each band on it has their own style from organic to ambient to power noise to electronic chaos. Most of it is so strange, there isn't yet a category to place it in. An amazing 21 tracks gives you a sampling of what the underground noise scene has to offer. Other experimental comps that I am fond of are "Treat The Gods As If They Exist," "Living In A World Full Of Drones," and the "Release Your Mind" compilations, and "Amduscias" surpasses their brilliance by far." --- Grinding Into Emptiness

"The stock market may take unexpected and significant plunges, but I can guarantee that Zenflesh will continue to release recordings that will not only baffle your sensory channels but forcefully play with your prefabricated definitions of music and noise. What you don't get on Amduscias is consistency, and that's a good thing here." --- Splendid
