| Carbon
was first conceived in April 1983 and emerged from work on the fringes
of the early hardcore and improv scenes with the bands I/S/M, The
Hi-Sheriffs of Blue, and Mofungo. Carbon debuted at the Speed Trials
festival in Soho in May 1983, alongside performances by Lydia Lunch, The
Fall, Swans, Sonic Youth, Beastie Boys, and Toy Killers. The name
appeared earlier as a song-title on the 1981 disc ISM and seemed perfect
for the band concept: a sound that would be both earthy and ethereal,
groove-oriented but jagged, and powered by hacked science and punk
mania. In addition to a doubleneck guitar/bass, Sharp focussed on
soprano sax and bass clarinet as well as using invented
string/percussion instruments: slabs, pantars, and violinoid. No digital
effects were used - all sounds were generated using extended
techniques, amplifier distortion, and volume. |
