The three tracks on side A show off the pulsing sound of Hiss a highly treated bass played like a guitar weaves biting textures that attempt in vain to scrape away at the wild rhythm with tribal features. The voices, neurotic in different ways, lend the proper tension to each piece. The voice of Bob Junior, calm and detached, seems to distance itself from the visceral yelling of Ignes Klaus. Side B contains one single track lengthy, instinctive, flawed, and imperfect which hides the secret to the fascinating sound of Hiss.

Hiss formed in the circle of audio turmoil that has brought the neighborhood of Pigneto (Rome) to life for the last few years. Now it’s best known as Borgata Boredom, from the name of a compilation that took a snapshot of an important and embryonic moment of this new scene, both in Rome and elsewhere. Hiss is a French-Italian duo: Bob Junior (bass, effects, voice) and Ignes Klaus (percussion and voice). Hiss offer us, in their own way (which is no small thing), their rereading of a certain infected post-punk sound, acidic and strongly rhythmic.

Hiss 10″ – Vinile bianco I tre brani del lato A mostrano a pieno il sound pulsante di Hiss, un basso trattato e suonato come una chitarra tesse trame graffianti che tentano inutilmente di scorticare la ritmica selvaggia a tratti tribale. Le voci diversamente ossessive insinuano la giusta tensione ai brani, quella di Bob Junior calma e distaccata prende quasi le distanze dalle urla viscerali di Ignes Klaus. Il lato B contiene una unica lunghissima traccia, istintiva, sbagliata e imperfetta, detiene il segreto dell’affascinante sound di Hiss. File Under : My Disco, Factory Floor
HISS Si formano nell’ambito del fermento sonoro che da qualche anno anima il quartiere Pigneto (Roma) oggi conosciuto meglio come Borgata Boredom dal nome della compilation che ha fotografato un momento importante e embrionale di questa nuova scena romana e non. Hiss è un duo italo-francese Bob Junior (basso, effetti e voce) e Ignes Klaus (batteria e voce). Gli Hiss a loro modo, e non è poco, danno una loro rilettura di un certo suono post-punk infettato, acido e fortemente ritmico.
