>Now on Last Visible Dog:
>
>*** REYNOLS/NO-REYNOLS "ROVATINO SURIDO ALMERICAMO" CDR
>Historic recording of the first Reynols/No-Reynols joint concert ever. 
>Recorded at Fusa Auditorium, Buenos Aires, in September 2001 this was one 
>of the most powerful Reynols gigs in their home country. With a line-up 
>including: Miguel Tomasin, Juan Manuel Acevedo, Moncho Conlazo, Anla 
>Courtis and Pacu Conlazo and mastered from the found tape of a fan (the 
>original recording was lost) this release contains more than 60 minutes of 
>real Minecxio sound. If you haven't been there this is probably your only 
>chance to experience this unique psychic document? (from LVD site)
>"The historic recording of the first Reynols/No-Reynols joint concert 
>ever...we get chugging guitars, damaged psychedelic excess and extremely 
>repetitive primitivism we've come to expect from the Reynolsian latitude. 
>If you like the rockier side of these Argentineans, you'll probably get a 
>kick out of these skronky jams. The epic instrumental chant of"Papapapa" 
>from No-Reynols is incredibly powerful, with mystical repetitions and 
>motorik rhythms recalling Krautrock at its most primitive and demented. I'm 
>hardly a Reynols expert, but this may very well be my favorite release from 
>these cats."?THE BROKEN FACE (Sweden), issue #15

>Reprinted on Trente Oiseaux  (Germany)
>
>*** REYNOLS "BLANK TAPES" CD (TOC002)
>"Blank Tapes was pieced together from digital and analogue treatments of, 
>you guessed it, blank tapes. Released by Bernhard Günter on his Trente 
>Oiseaux label, this album begins almost inaudibly before revealing the 
>Kirlian glow of tape hiss. Reynols approach their source material not as an 
>empty void but as a medium with an intrinsic aural quality as vital as any 
>guitar or drum kit. They successfully manifest and amplify black energy of 
>the tape hiss to mimic the somatic fluctuations of blood passing through 
>the arteries and deep inhalations of oxygen into lungs. Blank Tapes is much 
>more than a conceptual fuck-you, as the group attains the same simplicity 
>that is common in the strongest Fluxus work in both conceptual and 
>aesthetic execution.
>You don't listen to Reynols with only your ears: you also use your toes, 
>your eyelashes and, perhaps most importantly, your soul. ?Reynols claim 
>their music to be the by-product of a psychic communion with every object 
>they encounter- humans, pumpkins, rocks or discarded tape. As outlandish as 
>it may seem, each Reynols album leaves the uncanny feeling that what they 
>claim may in fact be true"
>Jim Haynes/THE WIRE Issue # 204 (February 2001)
>
>"One of the most uncharacteristic Reynols releases, matched only by "10.000 
>Chickens Symphony" for its more high-minded aspirations and its brutalist 
>approach to the art of musique concrète. 'Blank Tapes' is a triumph of 
>modern minimalist tape-work, which is probably why Bernhard Guenter saw fit 
>to release on his Trente Oiseaux label where it mighty join some 
>distinguished company. While still serious in intent, this does retain a 
>deal of the Reynols humour -and their perverse, magical power is still much 
>to the fore. (?)They have created a beautiful and brillant work."

>"The argentinian out-rock/free-jazz/avant-noise masterminds Reynols join 
>the beautifully disparate tUMULt family with a new installment in our 
>picture disc series, Live At NASA / Tribute To Al Jolson. Led by 
>spiritual/musical leader Miguel Tomasin (who has down's syndrome) Reynols 
>craft a transcendental musical world where sound becomes feeling, feeling 
>becomes thought, thought becomes noise, noise becomes Reynols.Band members 
>Alan Courtis and Roberto Conlazo (both classically trained engineers) help

>we are presented with 'Live At NASA', field recordings from... well, from 
>NASA of course. And the problematically titled 'Tribute To Al Jolson' which

>Coming soon on BETA-LACTAM RING RECORDS:
>
>*** REYNOLS "PACALIRTE SORBAN CUMANOS" LP
>limited version on 220 gr. vinyl of this album including numbered and 
>signed stamps! .
>"As the first track of this 50-minute journey begins, you're lost 
>somewhere, in a tunnel or cavern. There's an ambient rumbling sound, and 
>some haunting, echoed cries from Miguel. Then, with track two the distorted 
>rock n' roll drone kicks in, all heavy-like, building in noisy intensity 
>until track 3 interrupts the storm with a calmer, mantric mood, only to be 
>interrupted itself with more fierce feedback guitar at the four and a half 
>minute mark. Other songs feature Hare Krishna -worthy warbling chant, 
>acoustic strum, and rattling hand percussion, as well as more of their 
>primitive psych rock dementia. From simple, vocal-led tracks of trancey 
>emptiness to guitar-based fuzzed-out chaos, the results are only enhanced 
>by the raw, reverby production. Reynols is always strange, and strangely 
>compelling, appealing to us in sort of the same way that much of the music 
>of Keiji Haino does. Listening to Reynols isn't just about enjoying some 
>weird songs, it's about taking a trip into their world and trying to see 
>and hear things the way Miguel and his compatriots do. These are field 
>recordings from inside their minds."
>AQUARIUS RECORDS
>"I am being haunted by an Argentinian trio named Reynols (Miguel Tomasin, 
>Robeto Conlazo and Anla Courtis). I first discovered these, ahem, boys, a 
>few years back when Bernhard Günter was quick to capture their tape hiss 
>collage of 20 year-old blank cassettes on Trente Oiseaux. This is certainly 
>a round about recording in terms of distorting genres. Here we witness a 
>very sonically charged live ensemble feel of clashing psychedelia and pomp 
>in the fist of noise and imagination. There are overtures of Edward Kaspel 
>and Pink Floyd alongside more traditional folk percussion and the voice of 
>naiveté. These almost anonymous players give weight to the ancient 
>practices of music from the soul, the spirit and the hereafter. Beta-lactum 
>Ring Records deserves a nod for not sacrificing another divergent recording 
>from their ongoing roster of truly challenging avant garde 
>experimentalists. The band plays handmade instruments (Colibri Secret, 
>Snofer Pinchers, Marmonio) tugging at the channels of mono, low-fi cut and 
>paste with a sincere warmth and guts to spare. It?s like being hung by one 
>leg atop a speedway while the world peels by your head. There are 
>prayer-like ramblings that are as lulling as they are disturbing. Tomasin, 
>who is weighted with Down?s Syndrome, channels the vigorous tongues of 
>David Tibet and Tibetan Monks all at once. Beyond the raucous frequencies 
>and moments of cacophony there is a sentimental, almost saddening account 
>of a man in pain. There are subliminal messages herein, a modern day lucy 
>in the sky, flying high and low. TJ Norris/VITAL WEEKLY #339.
