ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE & THE MELTING PARAISO U.F.O. - 'Acid Motherly Love' CD (Riot Season)
Now firmly fixed to a solid 4 piece (Tsuyama Atsushi, Higashi Hiroshi, Shimura Koji and Kawabata Makoto) with added guest vocalists, AMT return for yet another out-there ride through their weird and psychedelic world. Guitars howl, riffs grow bigger with each minute and brains get fried along the way. Recorded under falling ash and burning roof tiles, 'Acid Motherly Love' features every dimension of their legendary underground sound - from wild riff heavy jams, to quieter acoustic passages and spoken monologues, all capped by the trance inducing 15 minute-plus epic 'Santa Sanrodriguez'. Artwork features the obligatory naked Japanese babes in all their finery. God Bless AMT!
“In Psychic Defense” is the latest work of Burial Hex. With this record Burial Hex faces a new chapter in his music where noise, post-punk, a wise use of the rhythm, experimental wave and dark melodies match together in a perfect balance. The record is elaborated as a protection spell in psychic self-defense, and the lyrics are from an old hymn to the Archangel Michael, always seen as a leader and protector of the faithful. This one sided also confirms the collaboration between Clay Ruby and Troy Schafer, who wrote and performed all the bass and guitar parts. Single-sided vinyl (21mins of music). Ltd x 300 copies in a hand silkscreened sleeve. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - ACT FAST!

COLD FUSION - 'Simmetria' CD (War Office Propaganda / Rage In Eden)
Symmetry perceived as some kind of balance and harmony. Symmetry between surrounding world and its "mirror reflection", which sticks in our minds. Symmetry of left and right side, day and night, birth and death. Symmetry of buildings, objects, bodies. The fifth album from Cold Fusion reflects this theme with dynamic, marching atmospheres on one side, and melancholy and reverie on the other. A lack of symmetry or rather its confirmation? 11 tracks overall, presented in a nice digipak.
DAWN & DUSK ENTWINED - 'Recollection 1994-1999' CD (Twilight Records)
A compilation gathering the best of the two first albums of Dawn & Dusk Entwined, originally released on the defunct World Serpent label.

Some influences are obvious, like In The Nursery or Blood Axis, and prepares for what was to come after with albums like "Remergence" in particular.

EMVELOPE NINE - 'Melt Canal' CD (Split Femur Recordings)
'Melt Canal' is a beautiful and haunting piece of work from Birmingham-based artist Alan Daly. Using guitar, pedals, synths and field recordings, the pieces seem to stay in one place, creating a sonic environment that allows the listener to furnish themselves. The album is reminiscent of Vladislav Delay, Fennesz and Tim Hecker, but still manages to hold as a piece of work on its own.

"The First Born" contains four long tracks of dark, brooding modern psychedelia.

The ever-shifting sonic textures evoke both the starchildren krautrockers of old and more recent outer-world explorers but always keep a strong personal identity, firmly rooted in the current weird Italian take on space rock.

FAUST - 'Patchwork 1971-2002' CD (Staubgold)
"Faust will forever be heralded as a pioneer in the electronic/rock avant garde, emerging in the early seventies branching off from Brit/American commercial rock bands, employing the use of alterior sonic landscapes to create a new musical tangent" (Alternative Press). For this release Markus Detmer (Staubgold) and Hans Joachim Irmler (Faust) compiled unreleased Faust recordings from 1971 to 2002, covering the legendary Wumme Years (1971 - 1973) and the time at Virgin's Manor studios (1974- 1975) as well as their new start in the early 80s and recent years. "Patchwork" unfolds the core qualities of Faust and gives a deep impression of their working method.

FLATLINE SKYLINE - 'All Sound / No Vision' CD (Mechanoise Labs)
The second album from Jacen Kemp and Robert Andrew Scott stands as a stylistic counter-statement to 2005's "Horizon Grid." Fierce, emotionally driven and abrasively textured, "All Sound / No Vision" confirms Flatline Skyline's masterful sense of tension and release and melodic sensibility while further evolving their sound beyond any previous expectation. Forged atmospheres of lethargic bliss, energetic vocals, noisy electronic shudders and multi-faceted intonations are perfectly suited to the shifting electronic foundation. Ltd x 500 copies in a digisleeve with 12-page booklet.
"Folkmusik" is a classic Folkstorm album with its roots firmly placed in the old-school industrial style, but there is a suffocating quality to it that is new. While a lot of the tracks are rhythmic, harsh and ugly compositions as you would expect, there are also a few ones which are monotonous monuments of fear, isolation, despair and tension. Digipak.

HYENA HIVE - 'See Saw Sav Ann Ah!' 7" (.ANGLE.REC.)
Until now, Hyena Hive’s sonic imprint has been rarely captured on disc. In the beginning, they delivered a very intense, rich and most honest noise-rock sound… but after that, percussion vanished to give way to a sound with a more Power Electronics colour, whose presence is now well affirmed in Hyena Hive’s audio universe. To document this phase, the flamboyant and demented "See Saw Sav Ann Ah!" is issued in 7" format. Two relentless tracks, and by far one of the most abrasive releases from the .ANGLE.REC. camp. This is in the image of all their most recent live performances! Lots of intensity to spare for fearless ears! Ltd x 250 hand-numbered copies in a deluxe cardboard envelope sleeve.
INDIGO LARVAE - 'Abandoned To Despair' CD (Steinklang)
This is a new project of Stahlwerk 9 with a even darker and far more aggressive and sinister atmosphere. Created in the ultimate depths of hell these 9 symphonies of misanthrophy, despair and self-mutilation hold the key to carnage and suicide. Listen to it, and start to squirm� you are never alone! A new shadow has appeared in the black forests of Death Industrial to blot all your hopes out. But beware: this is not the end! It is just a beginning. A new revelation for Brighter Death Now addicts! Ltd x 500 copies.
On the theme of alchemy and the topics of shame vs. bodily self infliction, IRM makes way for a new start after the inspired “Virgin Mind” double-disc set from 2005. These are new Power Electronics / Industrial recordings with the new member Mikael Oretoft joining on bass. Two long tracks - the first being an intense up-building, deep pulsating number with both spoken and rough vocals, volcanic exaggerated bass noise and doom-laden atmosphere. The second more of an aftermath with its down-spiralling, almost dreamy character of echoing tones, ripping clangs and chilling audio-schmerz. Ltd x 500 copies in a glossy colour sleeve with gross artwork and insert.
Swedish artists Martin Bladh and Erik Jarl, joined by Mikael Oretoft. "Order4" delves into the psyche of the self inflictor - the core of inner regions violently exposed. Comprised of four tracks, each exactly 15 minutes in length, we are thrown into a vortex of feedback, drones, heavy bass, nightmarish piano and irreproachable synthwork. The clinical heaviness of earlier works are now transformed into a pure harsh, static soundwaves. The lyrics here are deeper cuts into personal matters. A man altering between life and death - a calculating and delusional thinker and recluse who has lost his grip of reality, or perhaps found another? The strife for self-control turned into sick dedication, waging war on himself to receive recognition - the end comes nearer. Digipak.

"Fragile Confrontation" finds Eric Jarl looking back into the sparse, cold isolationist landscapes of "Sealed Void", while instilling an undercurrent of impending violence, like a blade slowly moving toward flesh in tense, scraping frame-by-frame action.

JARL - 'Turbulence Colour' 2 x CD (Autarkeia)
"Turbulence Colour" is the tenth album of talented Swedish composer Erik Jarl (IRM), containing two and a half hours of new, never released sound material over two CDs. In terms of music, Erik Jarl remains loyal to his original but dismal style. Very long, hypnotic tracks convey unbearable, depressing and morbid states of human psyche. "Turbulence Colour" is at the same time a journey into the grey matrix of anxiety where the listeners are masterfully taken through the sickly labyrinths of the author’s mind. The latest Erik Jarl’s release is the top class drone psycho-collage. Presented in a stunning debossed 6-panel digipak inserted into an embossed slipcase. Extremely high quality product! Ltd x 500. Lithuanian import.
Vertigo Rebirth is the 14th album from Swedish composer Erik Jarl (IRM) and the third and final part of the Vertigo trilogy. Like the earlier albums, this one generates particularly severe emotions: isolation, intoxication and especially negative, poisonous intuition. The album opens with a track that has a construction uncharacteristic to his previous works. This composition contains quite strange rhythms and is rather dynamic, which generates deceptive elation. But that’s only the first track of the album. The rest fling the audience back to the cold uncompromising space of drone, piercing and crushing all attempts to perceive the phenomenon of Jarl’s impasse. This is one more remarkable album for potential suicides. Ltd x 200 copies in a digipak.

Reissue of the 1983 cassette on the legendary Broken Flag label. "The modulatory shaking of S.F.A.G is the oxygenating prelude to the irradiating bionic music later developed through works such as “Endometrio” and “Carcinosi” and represents a milestone in my pre-apocalyptic production which later will culminate into the horrid of “Armaghedon”. The exegesis of this work reflects a strong attachment to smooth and round effects of the roughness of the frantic early days, but with a constant preference for the symbiosis between well preordered sound masses and not well defined radio broadcasts, like nebulae drifting in a space in trembling condensation." Digitally remastered by Peter Andersson (Raison D’être). The Original album is accompanied by a second CD with 3 de-compositions using extracts of the original S.F.A.G. recordings, created by 3 well known Nordic industrial artists: Peter Andersson (Raison D'Être), Henrik Nordvargr Björkk (MZ.412) and Erik Jarl (IRM).

RAPOON - 'Melancholic Songs Of The Desert' CD (Soleilmoon)
"These songs were composed during the last days of the Bush / Blair era and reflect the feeling of isolation and disconnection from any part of the political process and any sense of identification with the prevailing air of hostility and intolerance generated by this pair of religious xenophobes. The unjustified war in Iraq and the subsequent lies and propaganda engendered a feeling of revulsion and powerlessness. Once again it was “unpatriotic” to criticize or protest against the government’s actions, and there was a rise in nationalism and extrem- ist views. These songs are a retreat into the one place that no government has yet found a way into, the free and open spaces of the mind. They are spontaneous and mediative reflections looking for an inner peace in a world made ugly by hatred and war. They symbolize a kind of “walkabout” and a reconnection with a lost sense of belonging spiritually, intellectually and physically with the world we inhabit. In a broader sense they also re-affirm long held sympathies with the thoughts of writers and philosophers such as Camus, Sartre and Burroughs, and the profound wisdom of eastern philosophies such as Taoism and Zen. The music here looks for a sense of inner being that one can only find in quiet isolation" (Robin Storey). Presented in a hand made, screen printed (metallic) card sleeve and limited to 500 copies.

Unlike SKITLIV, which is a noise/doom amalgam, with Maniacs vocals still firmly rooted in Black Metal, SEHNSUCHT is in the noise / darkwave / ambient genre, with any vestiges of Black Metal pared away. 6-panel digipak.
3rd full length release from this acclaimed Martin Bladh (IRM) project (in conjunction with Magnus Lindh), following two albums on Cold Meat Industry. Like previous works, "Rothko Field" is a visceral auditory experience... mind bending and turbulent sonic explorations that are grainy, abstract and tense, where uneasy frequencies intersect with caustic drones, insectile buzz, swelling drifts, and slow motion, percussion driven sludgery. "Rothko Field" is more structured than in the past, coming off as both spacious and yet suffocatingly claustrophobic, suggestive of a spiral downwards into mental decay and degradation, and further enhanced by Martin's uniquely distressed and provocative vocalizations. 9 tracks in total, broken into two "mirrored parts", with track 5, "Void" acting as the actual mirror itself.

VISTHIA - 'In Aeternum Deleti' CD (ATMF)
There was a time when extreme music was not a mere shouting exercise, but a Vision, an idea of how to develop the magma of creation. Hailing from Italy, Visthia confirm the innovative attitude and contribution this scene is giving to reawakening the daring attitude that scene seems to have lost. Where others merely stopped to investigate, Visthia crossed the Rubicon, passing through the most extreme metal hemispheres to the industrial fields, resulting in the Black Powernoise genre. Told through the Latin tongue, the Occult Tradition becomes untold. The platter is enriched by the contribution of the internationally renowned artist Nicola Samorì, known for his unique style, bringing modern decay into the crystalized perfection of the ancient. File beside Dødheimsgard, Diabolicum, MZ.412 and Aborym.

WESTWIND - 'Tourmente I' 2 x LP (Steelwork Maschine)
The first part of the Tourmente series, dedicated to the victims who perished in Brest during WWII, features percussion and organ based dark martial / apocalyptic music with a fine dynamic in rhythm and mood setting. The music is simplified and restrained which only adds emphasis to the bleak ambience of the subject matter that they are trying to convey. Part life affirming and uplifting and part despondent and depressing, the music twists and turns through so many feelings leaving you breathless with admiration. If you could imagine a more upbeat Protagonist it will give you an idea as to what this DLP sounds like. One black LP, one white LP. Ltd x 500 copies in a gatefold sleeve.
