KRISTOFFER NYSTRÖMS ORKESTER - 'Overlook Hotel' CD (Malignant Records)
KNO is a collaborative project between Swedish industrial legend Peter Nystrom (Megaptera, Negru Voda), and Norwegian up and comer Kristoffer Oustad (V:28, Plague Machinery). Welcome to Overlook Hotel, where every room has a ghost, and every room has a story to tell. Travel the hallways and explore, as you venture into a cerebral musical state, where ghostly transmissions and hypnotic layers of surreal, ethereal atmospheres intersect with disembodied voices, clattering, furnace blasting percussion, and of course, healthy injections of true, old fashioned Death Industrial noise and sweeping doom, done in the best Scandinavian style. The pacing of the album is truly impeccable, flowing seamlessly from to track, as if moving from room to room in a hazy, dream state, the layering and cohesiveness on a whole nothing short of meticulous. 6-panel digifile.

MEGAPTERA - 'Extended Chaos' 2 x CD (Autarkeia)
Another release to celebrate 15 years of Megaptera! "Exended Chaos" consists of two old releases, "Near Death" and "Beautiful Chaos". "Near Death" (cassette, Sound Source 1991) was Megaptera's first official release and is the only release with all 3 members (Peter Nyström, Magnus Pettersson, Mikael Svensson). Using drum machine, various synths, movies, TV, radio and microphone they created a totally analogue and dirty death theme. On this CD, 3 bonus tracks are added from the same period. Get prepared for old school! "Beautiful Chaos" (MCD, Fever Pitch 1998), has been extended to 10 tracks. The extra material is the two classic tracks 'Shadowland' and 'Sodom' from the "Death Odors" compilation, the two tracks from the "In the Buchers Backyard" compilation, a bombastic remix of the apocalyptic 'Final Day' (by The Protagonist) and an extended version of 'Shadowland', remixed by Peter Nyström and Magnus Sundström. The sound of "Beautiful Chaos" is structured and heavy with an "end of the world" theme, using sampled and mixed sounds. Mastered by Magnus Sundström. Ltd x 500 hand-numbered copies in a stunning foldout digipak, with an embossed slipcase. Highly recommended!

MEGAPTERA - 'Staring Back At You' CD (Malignant Records)
The definitive last statement from this prominent and highly influential Death Industrial project. "Staring Back At You" collects demo versions, outtakes, and rare songs from various arenas, including the rare compilations "Zyklon B", "Beating the Meat", "Slaughter Age '95", "The Book Ov Shadowz", "Death Odors II", as well as material from the "Deep Inside" MLP and more - all remastered for this release. These tracks capture Megaptera at their grittiest, creepiest, and most horrifying... a grinding, lurching monstrosity fueled by the madness, violence, lies, wars, and disease that plague the world. 'Staring Back At You' is final nail in the coffin for Megaptera, and may they rest in peace, but continue to deliver nightmares, maddening thoughts, and the darkest of obsessions. Limited to 800 copies in a beautiful 6-panel digipak.

NEGRU VODA - 'Vald De Luxe' 3 x CD (Malignant Records)
Originally created as a side project to the now defunct Megaptera, the purpose of Negru Voda was to be a more personal and expressive solo outlet for Death Industrial veteran Peter Nystrom. "Våld de Luxe" is a comprehensive overview of the complete Negru Voda sound, combining a slew of new recordings, coupled with a collection of out of print, completely re-mastered works, including the full length "Dark Territory" CD (Old Europa Cafe, 1998), plus 3 bonus tracks, as well as the des Esseintes split 10" (Fin de Siecle, 2001) and the AVA: (dunk) picture 7" (Formosan, 2002). Also featured is the enlisted help of such notables as Magnus Sundstrom (des Esseintes, The Protagonist), Ulf Soderberg (Sephiroth), Kristoffer Oustand (V:28, K.N.O., Plague Machinery), and Christian Pallentin (P.A.L). Few can stake claim to the immeasurable influence and legacy of Peter Nystrom, and with Vald de Luxe, it becomes immediately evident that authentic, old school Swedish Industrial still reigns supreme. 8 panel digipak, with exquisite design by Kristoffer Oustad and Marten Kellerman.

SIGMA OCTANTIS - 'Dislocations' CD (Divine Comedy)
The music of Sigma Octantis is hard to describe, but certainly very obsessive. A cross between ritual and harsh ambient music, deeply rooted in the 80’s experimental films and music. Influences remain the same as on their 2007 debut "Invocations" (Morthond, MB, Militia, Mandible Chatter, Haus Arafna, Megaptera or the quietest side of Brighter Death Now), but this opus presents a more melodic side than its predecessor. It captures the same feeling but in a more bombastic, cruel and complex way. And dare we say... a bit unnerving? Ltd x 300 copies in a gatefold digisleeve.

SIGMA OCTANTIS - 'Invocations' CD (Divine Comedy)
Both ethnic and ambient, sometimes low and harsh or even psychedelic, Sigma Octantis's music is always melancholic and quite strange. As musical influence, Sigma Octantis will quote Spindrift of Morthond. Amongst other things Sigma Octantis takes ideas from: Surrealism, dark and melancholic writers such as Bataille, Artaud, Shakespeare, Proust, Bernhard; dark humour ala Ambrose Bierce. Musicaly speaking... amongst others Blue Oyster Cult, MB, Militia, Mandible Chatter, Thiefaine, Haus Arafna, Paul Roland, Megaptera or Brighter Death Now. Ltd x 500 copies in a digifile.
