Otto Von Schirach makes bashing, slashing computer music for the Miami-based Schematic label, which released the frequent Skinny Puppy tourmate and collaborator’s albums under tellingly abrasive titles like Global Speaker Fisting and the 2002 EP compilation Chopped Zombie Fungus. Fan favorite track “Tea Bagging The Dead,” from 2006’s Maxipad Detention, offers a blueprint for the typical Schirach song: pounding bass and ear-splitting stabs of digital distortion interrupted by bursts of arrhythmic machine-gun beats, all topped by demonic, Teutonic growling and the occasional peal of haunted-house synthesizer. And while Schirach introduced slightly more danceable rhythms on last year’s Oozing Bass Spasms, there’s still enough atonal, industrial aggression to leave your inner masochist squealing with pleasure.
