"We are very proud to announce the return of C.C.C.C. to Cold Spring (after their outstanding album 'Flash' in 1996).This is also the first album from C.C.C.C. in 10 years! This cult Japanese Noise group is made up of Hiroshi Hasegawa (Astro, YBO2, South Saturn Delta), Mayuko Hino, Fumio Kosakai (Hijokaidan, Incapacitants), and Ryuichi Nagakubo (Tangerine Dream Syndicate). An absolutely essential album for those with a penchant for extreme Japanoise. Just under 45 minutes of music." [label info]
"A few weeks back, I had the pleasure of reviewing two folk-based albums from British label Cold Spring Records. It was Von Thronstahl's latest effort "Sacrificare" and the excellent compilation "John Barleycorn Reborn". Now it's time for a radical change in stylish expression from the impressively musically wide spanning Cold Spring label. As you probably know Japan is the place to be if you're searching for ear-shattering symphonies of noise. Two new albums from Cold Spring present some of the Japanese noise-legends. First album is by Mayuko Hino and husband Hiroshi Hasegawa operating under the project C.C.C.C. (shortage of "Cosmic Coincidence Control Center") with contributions from Fumio Kosakai (Hijokaidan & Incapacitants) and Ryuichi Nagakubo (Tangerine Dream Syndicate). Having been active since 1991, this album is their first release in more than ten years. Previous effort was the "Flash"-album released back in 1996. The C.C.C.C.-project is first of known (or rather notorious) by the shocking live performances that earlier included onstage striptease and the throwing of urine-filled plastic bags into the audience. "Chaos Is The Cosmos" consists of one single track running 40+ minutes. Despite its length there is a great development in the piece. Main part of the noise creation consists of guitar distortion and keyboard generated noise with the addition of vocals from Mayuko's peaking with some hellish screams of fright. A great album that definitely has been worth the long wait!" [NM, Vital Weekly]
