TRUE STORY: I texted one of those overpriced 'ask any question' services and they responded with "The music of Eaten By Children is like scraping a fork across your fillings whilst watching a man pour salt into his eyes".
BACK IN THE DAY: I began making music in school-boy electronica combo Sobek; trying our damndest to imitate Kraftwerk in front of diehard, 13-year-old Ocean Colour Scene fans. After a few, now-legendary, appearances in scout huts across Dorset, Sobek sadly disbanded and I started work on a solo project, which eventually became Eaten By Children. I stopped using computers for a few years and started making noise with all of the debris left over from the band. This quickly developed into an unhealthy obsession with amplified electricity, harsh feedback loops and heinous sonic accidents
LIVE SHOWS: Brighton: Wrong Music, Spirit of Gravity, Totally Bored__London: The Klinker, The Gluerooms, The Bohman Brothers' Night__Leeds: The Termite Club__Sheffield: FREENOISE
I started playing live in January 2004 with Brighton's Wrong Music collective, mostly downstairs at The Volks. Fully improvised and aggressive stuff; these sets tend to end abruptly as soon as my power gets knocked out. Someone commented that he was less worried about damaging his ears than he was that the bass would rupture an internal organ. Diligence and hard work have allowed me to extend my range from horrendous noise assaults to marginally less horrendous noise assaults with some high-pitched screeching sounds thrown in.
COLLABORATIONS: In Canterbury I played in joke-band-made-good Noise Tsunami with three guitarists - a post-rock without the etiquette kind of a deal. I've also collaborated on a live remix of Sun Ra's Strange Strings with walkman-manipulator SKUT and a good old feedback knees-up with Brighton misfit and Pipettes svengali Monster Bobby.
SUPER-8 WORK: I've recently been using Super-8 projections in my live shows, sometimes with two projectors running simultaneously. The footage has been shot rather erratically in the tube system or in the local beauty spots of Hackney and Dalston. I've also been experimenting with found film and decay - I cast a long shadow over our family Christmas this year by burying a film of Princess Anne's wedding in my parent's garden.
STATE SANCTIONED RECORDINGS: After a lengthy gestation period, Eaten By Children's debut album is finally completed. "The Sword Swallower's Grave" is available from my CD-R label, State Sanctioned Recordings in a limited edition of 200. Read reviews here: The One True Dead Angel / Freenoise. Releases are also scheduled for Bill Thompson and Lessons Around Us. Please check the website (www.statesanctioned.com) for further details.
In the year 2012, humanity will prove to itself that its consciousness is indeed in actuality a recorded medium being played back to itself and that the universe is merely a type of gigantic tape recorder that is stuck on auto-reverse. Long ago, before this machine was caught in its never ending loop, we existed as the co-creators of it and its purpose was intended to be the apotheosis of all energy allowing us to play within it for all infinity. Unfortunately, there were inconsistencies with the reproduction of the recording and key components were gradually lost as it was played numerous times, thereby eventually freezing it inside its circular revolution around itself. This realization of the falsity underlying all reality will result in the illusion of the 3 dimension dissolving and humanity will then be able to free itself from the bondage of the decaying tendency of time. Take heed of these words that I hath spoketh onto thee, for they concern the future of all humanity!!!

I'm happy to announce that my new album "Songs From The Films Of David Lynch" is out now.
"Truly unsettling and perplexingly brilliant... testament to both the quality of Lynch’s soundtracks and Truax’s talents" - The Skinny
"Truax is paying homage to a kindred spirit with this album. It's the best kind of tribute – affectionate and respectful, but with its own quirks and imaginative leaps and its own distinct identity." -The Scotsman

a track from the new album 'farang - akträume' is now online.
music for the nude photo exhibition 'akträume' by markus reck and accompanying performances at the e-werk freiburg in january/february 2009
to be released on january the 15th 2009
'for the akträume project, stefan follows the idea of markus reck’s photographs and interprets it in a variety of different ways musically: for his so-called ‘body percussions’, which form the rhythmical and tonal basis of stefan’s compositions, he has recorded and digitally processed the sound of hands slapping human bodies. By use of formal elements such as repetition and variation of a musical theme as well as harmonic and rhythmical symmetry, a further connection to the photographs shown in this exhibition is established.' (quoted from the akträume-website)
the akträume-cd is limited to 350 copies and features photos and artwork by markus reck. it will be available at the e-werk freiburg from january the 15th until february the 15th 2009 or can be ordered at farangnoise@yahoo.de for 10€ + mailing expenses.
