noumenon was a quite noisymath rock band from a city that could reasonably be called the
world capital of math rock:
Chicago. A self-described “party
math” band, noumenon’s music is loud, raucous, relentlessly
mathy, and often downright catchy. Their music is largely
instrumental, although gang vocals are occasionally used.
notes on the distributions
noumenon’s bandcamp used to have
an additional compilation release listed, although it can no longer be found.
Back when it existed, I downloaded it — unfortunately, the same problem
occured here that occured with The Brave Little
Abacus. At the time, I downloaded in CBR
320kb/s MP3, so that’s all I have here. The compilation has been split
into its components: two tracks from the band’s demo (which was never officially released, as far
as I know), one track representing their side of the split with Talons,
and two tracks representing their side of the split with
Rooftops.
“Tro” is listed with a release date of ; although this is correct, it is
misleading insofar as the material had already been recorded over a decade
prior. It is a posthumous release.
