'Maximum Implosion' collects all collaborative (and most sought after) pieces between Zeni Geva (KK Null) and Steve Albini (Big Black/Shellac): 'Nai-Ha' and 'All Right, You Little B*st*rds!'. Also included are bonus tracks from the ultra-limited 12"-only 'Superunit', presented with meticulous Cedar mastering by legendary mastering engineer Denis Blackham. On the first CD, Zeni Geva present ultra-heavy Japanese noise rock, with sludgy riffs, thundering feedback, lumbering drums, subhuman bass crawl, and complex noise textures, with KK Null's trademark vocals/unique guitar accompanied by Albini's heavy guitar. 'Nai-Ha' loosely translates to "broken inside", with the title track relaying the gruesome aftermath of a car accident. The second CD captures Zeni Geva and Steve Albini's live-to-desk tracks from Tokyo and Osaka in 1992. Albini also makes vocal appearances, as well as guitar throughout. All production and mixing by Steve Albini. Final mastering by Martin Bowes at Cage Studios in England, and presented here in its complete form for the first time on Cold Spring. Presented in a 6-panel double digipak with original artwork/photo by Mitsushiro Hiruma and design/layout by Alonso Urbanos.
