To me this material sounds like Endon has taken some of the traditional Japanese noise like Hijokaidan. and updated it to 21st century. While at most wildest Hijokaidan would combined free-music/improv or team up with band like S.O.B.. it still always had the sound of past decades. Endon approach has noise which is combining more contemporary elements. Even if drummer improvises. he appears to play in style of chaotic grindcore & metal blast beats instead of "jazzy free drumming". Guitar also approaches noise with hints of improvised grind and metal patterns among pure chaos. Electronic noise has more crispy and effected feel. Sound mix is also far from jazzy "free music". All instruments are heavily distorted. but their style reflects more of grind or metal style of recording. It is still far from music. Wild high pitched screams and overall non-stop mayhem is pure noise. It doesn't have any qualities associated with heavy drone (Sunn o))) or such. Instruments suggest origin of specific underground music styles. but actually those references are almost purely destroyed by devotion of chaotic noise!
