“Cut Hands is the latest incarnation of William Bennett, founder of Whitehouse, notorious purveyors of extreme electronic music. Bennett formed the project in 1980, following a stint as guitarist in Essential Logic and subsequent solo recordings as Come (featuring contributions from Daniel Miller and J.G. Thirlwell). Having long dreamed of a creating “a sound that could bludgeon an audience into submission”, he made that dream a reality in Whitehouse, whose brutal, reductionist and flagrantly atonal music is characterised by bowel-loosening bass tones, ear-shredding high frequencies, showerings of white noise and hectoring, venomous vocals, usually barked, often screamed.”
