Episode 69: The Atrocity Circus

Dan Dolby, Thomas Ott and existent/nonexistent share a love of experimental and underground music and noise. Having already collaborated on several occasions (including on their noise/drone project Catafalque), Dolby and Ott created Yellow Crooked Teeth as The Atrocity Circus in 2022. Himself a fan of the debut, e/ne joined Dolby and Ott to create the newly-released follow-up Malpractice—a powerful, enveloping sonic landscape of noise, power electronics and death industrial sounds. All three join me to discuss the record, their own personal musical journeys and their thoughts on art and mental health.
