The Austere Beauty of Knurl/Pholde
Fathom presents Noise music by Allan Bloor who goes by alias’ Pholde and Knurl. Pholde is the ambient side of sound artist Alan Bloor, who is also known for his extreme noise project called Knurl. Pholde creates ambient soundscapes by the bowing and scraping of self-created metal sound-sculptures with other metal objects. Circular saw blades, car springs, iron meshing and fan blades are bowed and scraped with hand files, smooth and threaded metal rods, angle iron and blocks of steel to produce atmospheric, haunting soundscapes. Visit our Knurl/Pholde section to get a taste of a most visceral listening experience.
