We are still far with the round of this year’s contributors, but I go out on a limb and claim the main prize for the most unusual band lineup is already fixed. It is Mr. Bommel, also known as one half of 100,000 tons of Krupp steel, here with his project By Fire, in which he is completely alone in charge and master of his guitar, two guitar and two bass amps. The result is epic, seething sound massages that flatten the auditory canals and habits, unprecedented density and force.
