DANIEL MENCHE - 'Creatures Of Cadence' CD (Crouton / Longbox Recordings)
“Creatures of Cadence” finds Menche in full exploratory mode; excavating well-concealed networks of sonorous information through a systematic deconstruction of drone and pulse. In the process, he further erases any perceived division between hearing / feeling and performer / instrument. The result, if consumed at the appropriate amplitude, is nothing less than a sixty minute journey through a voluptuous and pristine mania. Released in an edition of 500, including three full colour inserts and overwrap with images of detailed bird drawings peppered with a whisper of the disturbing by Eric Stotik. A fitting visual analogue to the vehement beauty of the aural.

Keeping track of the musical output of Daniel Menche has never been easy.

Besides the material culled from CD compilations, three tracks previously only available on vinyl appear in digital form for the first time ever.

DARK AGES - 'A Chronicle Of The Plague' CD (Supernal Music)
Dark Age's second album continues offering us minimalist Dark Ambient, this time more melodic than before, and inspired on the horrors of the Middle Ages. Between the fall of the Western Roman empire in A.D. 476 and the fall of Constantinople in 1453, Europe was ravaged by plagues and superstition. Greek was largely forgotten, and with it much of the learned texts of antiquity. 'A Chronicle of the Plague' is a musical tale of the terror of 1349, which depopulated entire villages and decimated Europe's human population; the disease was not understood at the time, and therefore it was assumed to have been the wrathful punishment from the Judaeochristian Deity.

DARREN TATE & PAUL BRADLEY - 'Sometime Today' CD (Plinkity Plonk / Korm Plastics)
Sometime today, is a collaboration between Darren Tate and Paul Bradley. In his own unique and intimate way, Darren recorded the basic tracks at his home in York. Including guitar, keyboard and various other techniques, these recordings were passed onto Paul who took them with him, along with a laptop, on a recent visit to Turkey. These original tracks were supplemented with various field recordings taken around the town of Fethiye and the piece assembled during this three-week visit. Voyeuristic, evocative, abstract and delicate, you are invited to spend some time in their sonic world. Ltd x 500 copies in a gatefold sleeve.
The second full-length album from Baltimore’s Brian Daniloski is a mix of improvised and structured recordings primarily composed on the baritone guitar. The tracks are best described as equal parts doom, psychedelic experimentation and 20th Century composition. From powerful and doom-drenched sections to minimal and shimmering to aggressive rhythms that sound like a pounding string section, "Eternal Jewel" is some of the strongest material yet from Darsombra. Heavy gatefold digisleeve containing 2 inserts, with letter-pressed metallic silver print. "Simply glorious" (Record Of The Week - Aquarius).

DAVID JACKMAN & PHILIP SANDERSON - 'Terrain' 10" (Die Stadt)
Two tracks from early cassette releases. Side A is an alternative version of "Terrain" by Jackman and Sanderson, originally released on the "0 Degrees North" cassette (Aeroplane 1982). With Jackman overdubbing low guttural growls on a steel strung cello and Sanderson programming coffee-percolation on a drum machine, "Terrain" is a lo-fi production that finds its companions in the work of Throbbing Gristle, Hunting Lodge, and the Broken Flag camp of noise. Side B is a solo piece by Jackman, originally released on the 'Adrift' cassette (Snatch Tapes 1981). It is similarly lo-fi with a hypnotic loop of a monochromatic guitar topped with clanging metals and samples from orchestral swells, which have been drained of all color and replaced with a swampy din.

It's a truly beautiful noise, rather like some of Jackman's earlier work as Organum. Side B is a field recording, untreated, unfiltered, recorded outdoors, with a great hiss that is very much present in the mix.

Pray (no, commit ritual sacrifice) to the underworld that your stereo survives! For fans of Leviathan, Gorgoroth, Draugar, Xasthur, Burzum etc.
"A three-track EP which belches out some of the most ghost-ridden, wasted, slow and obnoxious guitar punk rock you could ever hope to hear outside of that sector of Hades reserved exclusively for rock stars maudits. Astonishingly, these coarse and corruptive anthems of caustic horror all seem to have begun life as cover versions, including one of a Hank Williams song.

DEAD RAVEN CHOIR - 'Schmerzensgewalt' CD (Aurora Borealis)
Dead Raven Choir is one of the most obscure, hated, envied and enigmatic black metal / noise / outsider entities in the world. 'Schmerzensgewalt' is said to mark the final chapter in this bizarre and wondrous fable. Smolken, the mastermind behind both Dead Raven Choir and Wolfmangler, claims that he is setting his sights on pastures new and that this challenging work is to be perhaps the very final testament of the spirit of Dead Raven Choir. Equally as lo-fi and harsh as 'My Firstborn Will Surely Be Blind', 'Schmerzensgewalt' shares the same ambivalence to the technologies of the modern world - "Recorded in Poland on cheap and archaic Soviet Bloc technology" - and a desire to tear songs limb from limb, note by note, before reassembling them in a crude mockery of what stood before. Particularly noteworthy this time is the inclusion of 16 year old female Polish vocalists recorded at the eerie forest bunker that serves as Smolken's lair, their naive delivery adding new unplumbed depths to the Dead Raven Choir sound.

Its purpose is to tidy history and features tracks from the very beginning to the very end of the original line-up's recordings. Comes in a debossed 'repak' of completely recycled paper and includes the very rare version of 'Black Radio' known as 'Some Of Our Best Friends Live In South America', plus a recently discovered unissued longer version of 'Sons Of Europe' taken from the 'Burial' album sessions. The first 2000 copies include an exclusive embroidered patch and a DVD of the 'Reunion' performance of the 3 original Death In June members (Patrick Leagas, Tony Wakeford and Douglas P.) which took place as an encore to the Death In June performance at The Underworld in London on 6.XI.98. This was the first time the original trio had played together in 14 years and the historical moment was beautifully captured on video that night by Boyd Rice.

DEATH IN JUNE - 'Live In New York' DVD (Tesco USA)
This beautiful and unique documentary piece, recorded at the Walker Stage in New York City on November 10, 2002, is a career-spanning collection of 29 tracks, each receiving a definitive live performance in DIJ's more recent stripped-down acoustic arrangements. Death in June has been the vehicle for Douglas P. to create a unique fusion of electronics, martial drumming (from John Murphy), and esoteric lyrics and visual symbolism. His work has spawned a new musical genre of its own, which some have called "Neofolk." While this disc will help the uninitiated to catch-up with one of the most important musical voices performing today, fans will appreciate that this DVD memorialises a concert that was nearly 21 years to the day that the band made its live debut, opening for The Birthday Party in London. The intimate setting allows Douglas P. to interact directly with the audience, taking spontaneous requests from fans and providing charming background stories for each song. Comes in a DVD digipak.

DEATH IN JUNE - 'Peaceful Snow / The Maverick Chamber' 7" (Extremocidente)
The two songs here are the first new DIJ material to come to light since "The Rule of Thirds". These new tracks offer not only the same radical departure from more complex song arrangements as on the previous album but this time also a departure from the use of acoustic guitar. Instead the instrument chosen to accompany Douglas Pearce's voice is the piano, played by Miro Snejder. Some might be tempted to say that this is a new direction for Death In June yet we have to disagree, as for almost 30 years this has been a ship that has maintained its course against all odds. Ltd x 880 copies on bubble gum pink vinyl in a debossed, silver foilblocked sleeve with hand-numbered insert and 3 postcards.

DEATHPILE - 'G.R.' CD (Hospital Productions / Force Of Nature)
Deathpile's first official full length release focuses on the Green River Murders in Seattle from the early 1980's. The lyrics are written from the chronological perspective of the killer, exploring key events and balancing truculent physical situations and aberrant psychological terrain, with terse delivery. Nine tracks of dense and rushing power electronics and sado-ambient atmospheres. Fierce, verging on hysterical vocals and well placed and researched audio samples stand above thick and violent synth beds. By far Deathpile's most cohesive, strong, and obsessive work fine turned with stark violent force and ritual atmosphere. Guest: David E Williams. Ltd x 1000 copies.
A head-on clash between noise, dub, metal destruction, 2 bass guitars and poppy drum patterns, sprinkled with vox that could've been pulled from a Sebadoh or Dinosaur album. A strange mixture, that's works very well. Hand assembled package, ltd x 300 copies.

2006 album by the French masters of erotic military pop, more gloomy than ever before! Devant le Miroir is by far the most polished of Dernière Volonté’s works to date, with more accessible tracks - a culmination of everything that has come before, it can be called Martial Pop at times as well as hinting at Neoclassical. Marco Deplano (Wertham) assists Derniere Volonte on the very poignant final track "Maitre De Ma Peau...". Digipak with booklet.
Dernière Volonté's 5th studio album took 4 years in making and marks their 15th anniversary! It is a huge development from the former style which redefined the term "military pop" to a more homogeneous, less neoclassical but much more modern in sounds, more electronic but organic at the same time - and reinvents a style Geoffroy D has been influenced since his early days. The themes on "Immortel" are effected by books, movies or personal experiences of Geoffroy but reflect in general his personal feelings about beloved people and their spirit which is and always will be present in our souls and memories. "Immortel" is another milestone in the oeuvre of one of France`s most interesting band from the underground scene and will for sure attract fans from the early days but a lot of new fans from other musical scenes.

Probably the most depressing Deutsch Nepal album, earlier released as a limited edition by Staalplaat (1999), now with new artwork. Genial project author Der General remarked sometime ago that during the recording of "Erosion" there persisted the feeling that this was the last work of Deutsch Nepal after which nothing will remain... perhaps only death. This almost came true as Deutsch Nepal went silent after the recording for nearly 10 years. Now the masterpiece of melancholy clad in an elegant digipak and with an enhanced sound triumphantly opens the golden worlds to the audience again.
DEUTSCH NEPAL - 'Erotikon' CD (Cold Meat Industry)
Deutsch Nepal is Lina B Doll - a well-known cult-phenomenon in the industrial underground scene. On "Erotikon" Deutsch Nepal blooms in full decadence. Dark seductive psychedelic industrial songs - it is retro all the way back to the Nico influences, it's addictive in every sexual way - and it leaves you with a complete new experience and a sensational taste of bodily fluids. The best Deutsch Nepal release to date? Never has the sound been more accurate, never has the vocals been stronger. Digipak.

DEUTSCH NEPAL - 'Tolerance' CD (Autarkeia)
The genial album "Tolerance" is one more golden deja vu of industrial culture, originally released by Staalplaat (1994). The new release of this cult album enjoys an enhanced sound and a new package design from the author Lina Baby Doll. Those who do not know Lina Baby Doll’s masterpieces, should be informed that "Tolerance" is an artefact of the early stage of Deutsch Nepal's music. The period is characterised by ritual tribal rhythms, mesmerising loops and indeed suggestive psychedelic atmospheres. Digipak.
Dialing In is the ecstatic roaring psychedelic drone project of Seattle based sound artist Reita Piecuch. Utilising the natural acoustics of a series of reverberant spaces she weaves together super saturated soundscapes by recording in one environment, playing back in another, and then re-recording this recording playing back in yet another environment. On 'Cows in Lye' the original sound sources range from loops of field recordings from a trip to India, piano, and the shifting drones of a "Shruti Box" (electronic Tamboura). One track also features a long stream of consciousness vocal performance from avant-crooner 'Herb Diamante'. 6-panel digifile.

The tracks on "Seven" are the "first, last and alwayz" existing tracks and there will be no more in the future. From Neofolk to Neoclassical and Dark Ambient sometimes with chants and enchanting female vocals, sometimes with very atmospheric and dark sinister soundscapes, but always in a more melancholic way.

When most other bands talk about Gesamtkunstwerke (total works of art), it sounds pretentious. When Die Weisse Rose do it, it makes sense. Die Weisse Rose are now available for the first time on record. The music is painstakingly crafted and orchestrated to include electronic elements, field recordings and real instruments, and its creative merits really stand out in an underground culture where bands of far lesser talents than Die Weisse Rose would release three albums in the time Die Weisse Rose have patiently worked on theirs.

The UK's Dieter Müh (Dave Uden alone this time) manipulates Finland's MNEM. "Solid collaborative effort between these known, but still some what obscure groups, delivering 8 tracks of dark, abstract atmospheres, with an array of layered, slightly organic sounds and processed manipulations; unknown insectile noises (of a larger variety I might add), sub-aquatic, droney washes, and deep rhythmic pulsations, with a dash of industrial clutter thrown in. Quite active and constantly in motion, allowing this to work very well as background music, or with headphones to pick up the multiple nuances and ultra-hypnotic qualities. I'm not quite sure what I was expecting, but I like this a lot more than I thought I would" (Malignant). Ltd x 500 copies in a digipak. Australian import.

This album, dedicated to Austin Osman Spare, includes 60 minutes of pure magickal sounds, conceived by Different State and Sigill. Each of them represents a slightly different approach, although they are both connected by mystical, alchemical, ritual characteristics. Marchoff (Different State) describes his music as alchembient - a mix of illbient, a great deal of alchemical incantations and moans. Sigill is a project consisting of Brat Salo and Nantur; a duo creating electronic lunar spaces and astral soundscapes using samples and ancient instruments.

The legend of the Polish industrial scene returns with 10 hypnotic, beautiful songs in the trance / ritual style of Different State. "Sometimes the world rejects us: alienation, isolation. It happened to me. I was looking for a source to figure myself out. I decided to check myself into a clinic for people who are addicted to drugs and have psychological problems. This wasn’t easy for me, as the state of my existence throws shadow. Everything was binding me. I talked to my doctor about needing electronic equipment to make samples and music. Basically I was lonely but I knew I could record some unconventional sound. I made samples of everything in my cell: metal bed, sink, plates, A/C, wood floor, guards… everything that surrounded me. When I got out, I had a picture of what I would do with the recordings. In my recording studio in Lindenhurst, Long Island, I joined together all the sounds plus analogues to create esoteric and unique music." 6-panel digipak.

DOKTOR KETTU - 'Soft Delirium' CD (Super Metsä)
Doktor Kettu sounds like a rock'n'roll band being thrown down a well in low gravity. Years ago they hid themselves in a small cottage by the sea, only to emerge later as a stream of limited releases documenting their slow rituals. Today all of these recordings are desperately sought-after collector's items, but the band itself has carefully stayed away from sight. The first ”proper” Doktor Kettu offering ever is music that is so disconnected from time that its notes are only now just about to reach us, two years after the recording session. Fine Finnish Krautrock with (unsurprisingly) a member of Circle.

The Mediterranean past and present, the East and the West, the Greeks and the barbarians meet in the catharsis of profound sadness and wisdom, where the fall of civilisation witnessed in the vanishing cultural heritage is revealed. Greek poetry is recited in an enchanting voice and the ambient melting the words with elemental force embrace the audience who do not even know the archaic language.

One third of the cult post-industrial Swedish legends MZ.412, one half of the amazing experimental act Beyond Sensory Experience and Nordvargr’s long running loyal partner on classic endeavors - including the abyssal black ambient duo Nordvargr/Drakh. While mostly known for his demonic, truly Swedish guitar interventions on the MZ.412 or N/D pitch black ambiences, "Bethlehem" finds Jonas Aneheim walking through slow, quasi-harmonic, subtle, yet thick drone fields weaving elaborate and unexpected damaged electronic rhythms and harsh, crackling ambient textures that can become at the same time both delicate and haunting, warm and freezing, to finally drown in a sea of reverb, glacial riffing and distortion on his own shadowy interpretation of the city of Bethlehem. Ominous sonic vistas and pallets truly honor the charming aura and tradition of the bleakest Swedish sounds. Ltd x 400 copies in a 6-panel digisleeve with photography by Seldon Hunt.

Released on CD on UK act Dual's label CEE, this full length album comprises six tracks over 48 minutes and is an accomplished release of pure unfettered energy bursting to the seams. Forever bringing the sounds clearer to the front and then demolishing into pure nothing. Crackling interference and bubbling rhythms compound from a foundation built of syncopated static and whispers leaving the spinning clicks and tones to gyre and tumble beneath. A gem for collectors of minimal electronics and drone.
As always, all the sounds on this release are derived from the guitar and this second full CD release shows UK act Dual exploring rhythms and percussion coaxed from the guitar while applying various treatments and manipulation. Although some traditional methods of playing the guitar have been employed on the recordings of this album the finished mixes show no real sign of a plucked guitar string. Drones and textures are interwoven with clicks, pops and buzz from the electronics with subtle bass rhythm to create a soundbed of drifting melancholic ambience.

DUPARC - 'Spring's Message' CD (Ars Benevola Mater)
While stumbling around a dark and dusty used bookstore in Manhattan’s Lower East Side, Carlos Boll stumbled across a book of poetry by John Clare. Not being familiar with his work prior to this encounter he was taken aback by the beauty of Clare’s words. While maintaining a rather personal and reflective nature, the poems invoke a walk though the forest on a wonderful spring day. Being struck by such inspiration Carlos knew at once he should set some of his favourite pieces to music. Enhanced by the dulcid tones of vocalist Isabella Piombo, Carlos purposefully kept the music in the realm of traditional British folk, in homage to Clare’s homeland, although modern influences certainly crept in during the recording sessions.
