Right off the bat my favorite part of this 3" is that the songs are short.  Like seconds long. They actually range from :05 to about 4:30 but it's all varied. It's awesome and the exact opposite of what you usually get from a noise record. This is short blasts of harsh fury mixed with short focused drone pieces over 11 tracks.  Really wonderful work. The layout looks a little 90's but still professional and tight. There is actually a lot of text to fit on such a small surface.

Phillip B. Klingler a.k.a. PBK

One look at the Marax discography reveals Eric Crowe's complex obsession with death and suicide. For a time he was working on a proposed twelve album release schedule for Crucial Blast that was titled "For The Love Of Death". I'm not sure that series was ever completed, but Marax, in 2011, is finding new ways to express his thoughts and feelings about death in his music.

"My Suicide Note Penned In Sound" is a brand new work from Marax. This is the first release on the Sensitive Receptor label based in Bremen, Georgia. Limited to 100 copies, this pro-duplicated cdr comes in a sleeve with artwork as stark and minimal as the sound of the work itself. The single composition here runs a little over an hour in length and delivers a statement of dire consequence. As though we are in the mind of the person penning the suicide note, everything is seen through a veil of self-doubt, all mental processes running simultaneously. The finality of this grim epic of life and it's sad conclusion are exemplified by a massive, droning, deep well of noises, a sort of minimalism/maximalism that, with volume, reveals many layers, but outwardly seems to sort of hover, no movement except what is in the timbre of the noises and the details of sounds that can only be perceived through a dazed fog. Placing the listener in exactly the kind of emotional place one would correlate to that of a person contemplating such an act of permanence. For fans of the "Harsh Noise Wall"(or HNW) style this will become your new obsession. Further delineates the labyrinthine nature of Marax's work, his sound cannot be pigeonholed, whatever the approach, he is making noise music of the highest order.
