LP version. Gatefold sleeve. Silver-grey and black vinyl. Merzbild Schwet, the second album opus released in 1980, is considered one of Nurse With Wound's major releases. The track "Dadaˣ", goes further into weirdness with lots of silences, creepy creaking noises, tones that build up and collapse, and scattered spoken word in French and English from Eve Libertine from the political punk band Crass, and the piece certainly lives up to the Dada of its title. The track "Futurismo", begins with clanking rhythms, record skip clicks, and horn riffs before veering off into a crazed quilt of women singing, laughing, and talking in French. About halfway through, wild screeches of distortion disrupt the piece, and then more bizarre sounds take over before the piece ends with a collage of over-modulated electronic hum and rambling piano.
