WOLFSKIN feat. LAST INDUSTRIAL ESTATE - 'Stonegates Of Silence' CD (Malignant Records)
And so the journey formally ends for Wolfskin, 15 years from whence it began with the release of "The Hidden Fortress" cassette back in 1995. The essence of Wolfskin has transformed and mutated throughout the years, reaching on "The Stonegates of Silence" it's simpler form… one of desolation, solitude, insanity and death, the final frontiers of human existence. As he did with "The Hidden Fortress: A Revisitation" CD, Wolfskin once again pairs up with Anders Peterson of Objekt4 fame, now operating under the name of Last Industrial Estate for the purposes of this recording. This is Wolfskin at its bleakest and most restrained, offering 5 tracks of enveloping ambience built around foggy, ambiguous textures and an endless flow of drifting isolationism, shapeless horrors, and oppressive subterranean heaviness. In the case of Stonegates, Wolfskin goes out not with a bang, but with a slow, evolutionary creep into the shadows, forever etched in the lexicon of dark ambient music. Digipak.

YEAR OF NO LIGHT - 'Ausserwelt' 2 x LP (Music Fear Satan)
Year Of No Light have recruited two new thirsty mercenaries to their line-up: Shiran, of Uber-doom combo Monarch! and Mathieu, of deviant-electronics act Aeroflot. Out of their cave, they crept into an old theatre to record these 4 tracks, catching every possible vibration of the trembling frame of this enlivened new mansion. All the energy collected there forms "Ausserwelt", the sophomore album of Year Of No Light. Mystical emanations flow out of these riffs colliding into each other to an in ear-splitting shriek. Cranked amps and molested drums hurl their mourning chant as a choir intoning its final psalms at the dawn of the Last Judgment. Year Of No Light follows the path opened by "Nord" towards more sombre psychedelics, creating its own blend of black metal, sludge, drone or any other influence marked with the seal of darkness. An ambiguous electrical network of acting singularities, now ready to afford the collective metaphysical crash to come. Ltd x 500 copies over two slabs of black vinyl in a superb gatefold sleeve.
