Noise, far from its most abrasive edge, is reconfigured as a continuous field — dense yet permeable.\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"modal-body\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel:  Modern Obscure Music\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SRD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62546950914435,"sku":"MOM073","price":26.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0932\/6872\/files\/Screenshot2026-09-04at13.09.25.png?v=1788523795","url":"https:\/\/beartreerecords.com\/products\/merzbow-and-vian-bardo-thodol-lp","provider":"Bear Tree Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
