"VIDDEKAZZ2 is a Japanese Punk Noise duo (Tokyo) in the pure tradition of old-school noise rock. This Kick-C with his very angry drums and this MIYANO with his abrasive guitar and vocals (surprisingly very calm) surprised me in their noise rock all in syncopation. VIDDEKAZZ2 knows how to be very subtle, the particularity of this calm and peaceful singing lost in this dense vaporous and at the same time noisy sound really has a grain that I like. The slightly pop-ish alternations in the voice are well highlighted in this decor of disjointed Noise rock. Kick-C hammers his head down, MIYANO hits any noise, a poisonous memory somewhere of the beautiful years at LOAD Records where the sound and energy knew how to shift and tangle the brushes to surprise itself. 'top of the world' at the end of the album gives us 18 minutes of noise for dessert. A very pleasant surprise. Thank you, Public Eyesore."Valery John Klebar
