has anyone bought that car with the merzbow cd that's stuck in the player? and the cd is the only one that was ever made.

it's called the merzmobile or something clever like that.
I know the merzbox really exits but does this thing really exist?

"ever heard of google?"

I just discovered it...amazing invention! If you ask me it's going to put these discussion boards out of business. I mean this whole ILM thing is just people talking and *speculating* about music. Why even bother when you can go straight to the facts?

Merzbow Car

The Story of the Merzbow CD packaged in a car has spread itself across the globe. Alot of rumors have circulated and the truth has been hard to come by. To coincide with the "Resist the Factory" I decided to talk directly to Anders at Releasing Eskimo, the Swedish label that put out the Merzbow car.

Here's what he said:

"A while ago I had a Mercedes 230 that I didn't drive much. The police told me that I had to move it or they'd tow it away. Well, I didn't want to keep it and I didn't have anywahere to store it so I decided to use it for something else. I rigged the car's CD player with our latest release of Merzbow's "Noise Embryo" CD so that the music started when the car was turned on and it was impossible to turn it off. I put it up for sale as an extremely limited edition of the "Noise Embryo" CD but no one ever bought it, and in the end the car broke down. So we took out the CD and got rid of the car. Now I'm thinking about if it's possible to release a record in a Boeing 747..."
