Los Angeles-based Cruelty Campaign utilizes site recordings, found sounds, and bits of dialogue to create musical atmospheres and harsh soundscapes that are both beautiful and unnerving. CC's diverse pallette draws upon the overlooked and the extraordinary... the creaking of docks in stockholm, a domestic arguement in berlin, the clattering of an escalator, and even the humming and clicking of roger "cold meat industry" karmanik's refrigerator. Driven to preserve and propogate these fleeting sonic moments, the band weaves these sounds together in reverential homage.
