I Listened To All Cellnoise Releases. Here Are My Thoughts
Hi! I am P.F. or Bacteriophagal Reconstruction. On April 19 I decided to listen to every single cellnoise release to get inspiration and just to get to know the genre better. First of all, huge thanks to antevie1411 on RYM for creating and maintaining The Cellnoise Encyclopedia. This wouldn't have been possible without him. Now, onto my thoughts:
Cellnoise started as really mid. Most early releases and some early projects tend to be uninteresting. Especially Acadoparadoxides Mureroensis, CYP450, Endoplasmic Reticulum, ФX174 (though his last release was good), Staphylococcus Aureus, and PnM. Generally, most of Sacha's splits were very meh. But that's expected of a genre that's just been born, so obviously no negativity here.
The average release length has grown vastly. I think I've skimmed through the first ~120 releases relatively quickly, and then Amœba happened. This is primarily the case because too many releases were EPs/singles at the beginning. The shortest cellnoise release is a Βακτήριον single, lasting 11 seconds, the longest cellnoise release is Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocyte's Metastasis, lasting 86 minutes and 56 seconds.
I have skipped some releases. These include my own releases (including splits), releases whose bandcamp links disappeared, a couple Sacha splits where the other project wasn't cellnoise, and some albums that have been added to the encyclopaedia after I started listening, a 55-minute length CLCN album that had an AI-generated cover (?, I think). I have rated the Sacha project with the incomprehensible name, but haven't written it here as I was too lazy to copy the name. I also haven't rated a couple projects that aren't on RYM, such as Acid Cxnt and Malignant Sperm.
There are a couple great projects that I want to mention that only have one or two releases. Those are Sclerose, Iatrogenesis, Spirochetes and Infiđel. Another one that I especially wanted to mention is Meiosis Daughter Cells, amazing project that I would love to come back.
I haven't *actually* checked, but the project with the highest average rating was probably Invasive Urinary Bacteria, having the only cellnoise 4.5/5 and a ton of 4/5s.
Now, I will list all my ratings (which can just be found on my RYM page, but whatever).
