PAINTING PETALS ON PLANET GHOST - 'Fallen Camellias' CD (A Silent Place)
Second full-length album from Italian brothers Maurizio & Roberto Opalio (My Cat Is An Alien) and vocalist Ramona Ponzini (Praxinoscope). 'Fallen Camellias' is a tribute to one of the greatest poetess ever, Japanese Yosano Akiko, whose work in literature in the early 1900's is considered as manifesto of the Japanese Romanticism. Imagine a Vashti Bunyan or a early Marianne Faithful singing sweet melodies in Japanese language, and you can have an idea of the musical and poetical universe of PPOPG. The songs of 'Fallen Camellias' are built on acoustic guitar melodies and are made of the same pure, melancholy of the legendary Nick Drake.

PAL ASLE PETTERSEN - 'Komposisjoner 2005-2008' CD (Zang)
A compilation of Pettersen's electro-acoustic compositions executed within that four year span. "Each work is put together from processed field recordings and tapes of his home-made instruments, not that you'd know it when faced with this near-stony, unfathomable and slightly chaotic abstraction. More often than not I feel like a small pebble rolling down the side of a glacier as I listen. Some composers in this area can't help but look for natural rhythms as they assemble their found materials, exploiting the natural warp and weft of the sounds like rings inside a tree trunk. Not Pettersen, who seems determined to refuse any sort of structural sense in favour of the random and the organic" (The Sound Projector).

PALE ROSES - 'Fear Of Dawn' CD (The Eastern Front)
Debut album from this French Neofolk act. Ten songs about war, melancholy and the pagan roots of Europe. Two reworked versions of traditional British ballads ('Lord Gregory' and 'Two Ravens') make the album complete. Pale Roses have done their best to keep the instrumentation minimal, stripped down to the core, free of all non-essential arrangements. However, slight variations between songs keep the album from being repetitive. Although Pale Roses are ready to pay their dues to the founders of the Neofolk genre (Sol Invictus, Death In June and Fire+Ice), it is not far off to also mention Nick Drake, Nico or Richard Thompson as influences. Ltd x 1000 copies.
PALE ROSES - 'Unveiled' CD (War Office Propaganda / Rage In Eden)
Second album from French Neofolk act Pale Roses, featuring acoustic guitar, piano and vocals. 11 tracks about war, melancholy and the pagan origins of Europe, with lyrics inspired by history, mythology (Celtic, Norse and Greek), Occultism, fantasy and British murder ballads. The band are influenced by Sol Invictus, Fire+Ice, Death In June, Current 93, Strength Through Joy as well as Nick Drake, Nico and Richard Thompson. Digipak.

PARANOIA INDUCTA - 'Pia Fraus' CD (Beast Of Prey)
"Pia Fraus” is second part of the Lux Mundi trilogy. This trilogy is a tribute to all those who died, were killed, deceived, humiliated and oppressed by catholic church. It's a tribute to all those victims who instead of love and hope were given torment and death. Anthony A Destroyer is joined once again by eLL (Sui Generic Umbra) and Robert Marciniak (Rukkanor). This second act in red symbolises the cardinal colour and is dedicated to all victims of cardinals. A dark ambient album with an atmosphere of death and industrial sounds, choirs, songs and voices, much like the style of "Gloria Laus".

PAS - 'Pure Energy Output Sessions' CD (PAS Records)
NYC experimentalists PAS (Post Abortion Stress) is a group out to create musical collages through the form of abstract sound. Their name refers metaphorically to those who have been aborted by society, because their point of view doesn't fit in the constraints of 'normal' society. The short name refers to the negative in French, metaphorically negating everything that is established to start from a new beginning. The band create soundscapes underpinned by the notion that music can be whatever the ear perceives... a conception fueled by the love of life and art. The compositions themselves are more akin to soundscapes than 'songs' in the traditional sense. There are no clearly defined melodies, no structural landmarks that give you any sense of traditional anchor. Sonic sculptures in the mode of pure art. 6-panel digisleeve.
The first offering from this Rome outfit. Originally conceived in 2005, Passione Nera has evolved from a folk-pop creature into a fully-fledged chamber-pop ensemble. The band keeps one watery alcoholic eye fixed on the cinematic tradition, with melodic landscapes that are dusty and melancholy. These scenes are then wrapped up in lush, orchestrated songs with acoustic and electric guitars taking the centre stage, and enhanced by a large array of additional instruments. It is as if the songs were written on the back of 1960s postcards brought back from some imaginary journey into “Americana”, then bred with French-pop, cross-fertilized with baroque-pop, and finally molded into a soundtrack for the broken-hearted, the disenchanted and the misunderstood. Features guest vocals from Simone and Piergiorgio of Spiritual Front. Digipak.

The final result is a far heavier and more substantial work that creates a light and dark relationship with the original release and is much more than a simple 'remix' of Moraines.

Five years in the making, and the first duo recordings, created between 2004-9. Moving past the harsh noise cutups but not eschewing them entirely; rather, moving forward to areas of sound collage, music-concrete, field recording and electroacoustic. A calculated and controlled effort. Every sound strategically placed in the narrative. At the core of each track rests layers of cold, minimal electronic drones, which form the skeleton of the album. The progression continues. Ltd x 1000 copies.

11th official release from Norwegian act Penitent (aka Karsten Hamre) since 1994.

An orchestral touch appears now and than while a few other cuts move into more explicit experimental fields. Diverse ambient soundscapes are lead by a repetitive rhythmic background. Overall, agreat illustration of all the knowledge and maturity of this project. Penitent remains quite faithful to its established style and sound. Hydra is a division of the Salvation Group.

PENJAGA INSAF & VESTIGIAL - 'Of Earth And Of Fire' 12" (Power & Steel / Loki Foundation)
The German Penjaga Insaf delivers enigmatic, ritualistic soundscapes built from layers of percussive, deeply meditative patterns, interwoven with original field recordings made by the artist during extensive travels through Indonesia. Italy's Vestigial presents an immense stream of pitch black ambience infused with dark tectonic upheavals and voice fragments that boil forth from a seething flood of magma before sinking back into the molten stew. The ancient sounds of the Earth as scorched by devastating waves of brooding Fire. Ltd x 333 copies.
For several years Ingo Sauerbrey made extensive travels through Indonesia, always carrying recording equipment to collect sounds as an audio diary. During periodic return trips to Germany, he started to work on the recordings with electronic devices. Some sounds were edited, cut and transformed, while others were kept completely intact. Water Puppet and Shadow Theatres, Gamelan and various welcoming and fighting dances like Kecak, Jegog and the Tarian Caci were used for this album. "Sama Sadja" weaves together the sounds of living traditions, religions and languages with spherical ambient pads and electronically edited drones from the field recordings. This is an contemplative and intimate soundtrack from the deepest heart of South East Asia.
Pepe Wismeer is a duo from the Champagne-Ardennes region of France, who have been making their own unique brand of music since 1999. The music on this LP moves with patient strides, sometimes swelling to sudden crescendos, accompanied by electronic scrapes and coughs. A slightly damaged, spare, chamber folk-psych, whose distant cousins can be found in the darkly tender moments infused in early Psychic TV / Current 93 / Coil, or in the atmospheric postures of Antony & the Johnsons. The music is mainly structured around piano and voice accompanied by electric-acoustic guitar, bass, concrete sounds, samples, sitar, metallophone… sheep, birds, water and glass. All music was recorded on analogue equipment to add warmth to the icy atmospheres. Ltd x 100 hand-numbered copies with insert.

Peter Paelinck travelled for many years in the old lost valleys of the Himalayas and Tibet where he learned the secrets of the Bön. The dark side of the Igloo Recordings was inspired by these memories. In 2008 Peter made new recordings in Norway where snow and ice were the only material used to build instruments to create sound (iseridoo, isbone, isgong, isbell and istube). Eldbjorg Raknes joined him in making these recordings at the Geilo Ice Festival. In isolation on a mountain top in a specially built igloo, they created new ritual music, recorded by Tor Magne Hallibakken. The results were mastered in Iceland by Finnur Hakonarsson (Johan Johansson, Mùm etc), creating 9 primitive songs with a high listening quality. Peter Paelinck and his sister Niki Mono were 2 of the 5 Arian Aquarians on the cult record label LAYLAH and he has previously worked with Hilmar Orn Hilmarsson and David Tibet.

After the well received debut "Submerged", Phaenon follows things up with an even deeper immersion into a world of bleak, isolationist sounds. Whereas "Submerged" was one long and infinitely expansive drone piece, "His Master’s Voice" is broken up into four separate, but flowing tracks of sprawling and spacious ambient drift, laced with interstellar disturbances, probing, alien tones and icy shards of celestial debris…a whirling spectre of darkness and void-ic space, thematically based upon the 1968 novel of the same name by Stanislaw Lem, which is centred around the efforts by scientists to decode, translate and understand a series of extraterrestrial transmissions. As a whole, His Master’s Voice represents a logical progression in Phaenon’s sound and is the ultimate in headphone listening. In a gorgeous 6 panel digipak.

POST SCRIPTVM - 'Raspad' CD (Tesco Organisation)
"Raspad" (Russian for disintegration-zerfall) is the third full length album by Post Scriptvm. Dense, thickly-layered industrial ambient music, exploring the abysmal pathology of modernity - illusion of progress, dissolution of memory, abandonment of higher meaning and paralysis of the will - the advanced lethargy of human spirit. The rich structure of music plays subtle tricks on the listener's subconsciousness and the mood slowly drifts from quiet melancholy to visceral intensity. An example on how to use analogue and digital equipment in creating a special way of sound. Mastered by Jerome Nougaillon (Propergol) and presented in a digipak.

The first new studio album from PTV3/Psychic TV since 1995's "Trip Reset".

All of the experiences unfold viewed through the magickal lens of “Pandrogeny.” The aim of Pandrogeny is to celebrate similarities in humans rather than be at the mercy of fear of differences as the only viable path to a unified evolution of the human species. Features guest artists Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs), Gibby Haynes (Butthole Surfers) and Douglas Rushkoff.

The recordings on this CD are aimed to stimulate and aid the expansion of consciousness and relaxation of physiological tensions. Our aim was to create a recording which could be used for these purposes. This is the true aim of psychophysics, the attainment of body and spirit.

PUISSANCE - 'Back In Control' CD (Equilibrium Music)
Following the awe-inspiring debut "Let Us Lead", Puissance would return a couple of years later to unleash "Back In Control", a cynical tribute to human evolution and how such evolution inevitably seems to dictate the end of the World and mankind's own extinction. The impending man-made apocalypse which Soderlund obsessively narrates is superbly illustrated by epic martial compositions, to which the pace is set by loud marching drums and Industrial percussion. A compelling work of art, that would bring Industrial music to a new climax, thanks to the glorious Neoclassical arrangements that Puissance have developed for the album. Originally issued via Cold Meat Industry, this rare classic is now finally made available again. "Back In Control" has been remastered and enhanced with one bonus track. Deluxe digipak edition with embossed cover.
Three years after "State Collapse", the cogwheels of the Puissance warmachine have been fine-tuned and put to work again, in a crushing motion that seems to be as defiant and innovative as ever. Musically, "Grace Of God" could well be referred to as a re-definition of the over-abused "Martial-Pop" term, yet Puissance's own superior combination of sumptuous Neoclassical and Industrial elements raises any potential Pop anthem to an entirely distinct level. More melodic and vocal-oriented than before, this latest opus also comes to expose a more rhythmic approach that had been hinted at in previous releases, but which has now morphed into a powerful and relentless driving force in Söderlund and Möller's compositions. Compellingly militant and beautifully apocalyptic, "Grace of God" finds Puissance in top form. Includes an encrypted bonus track! Presented in a stunning spot-varnished, matt digipak. Highly recommended!
PUISSANCE - 'Mother Of Disease' CD (Equilibrium Music)
Reissue of Puissance's 1999 album. With the Industrial rust of early days properly polished, the Swedish duo would further explore their talent for graceful arrangements set to Militaristic Neo-Classical music. Following the overtly confrontational offerings of "Let Us Lead" and "Back In Control", Puissance were now set to resurrect the ghosts of Cold War and the obsession with all things thermonuclear that haunted the planet - the Mother of Disease, as they would call it - over that period. Brooding hymns to suicidal heroism, devotional praises to a new god that would finally bring closure to the human race, the screeching of metal twisting and melting - all of this would find its place in Puissance's own beautiful vision of the impending apocalypse, that they so ingeniously depict on "Mother of Disease". This fine collection, it has been re-mastered and enhanced with one bonus track, presented in a matte-blue deluxe digipak edition.
The masters of Martial Neoclassical Industrial return! Sumptuous and majestic as ever, exploring their melodic side even further. Bombastic orchestral sounds, atmospheric Neoclassical synth music, some militant drumming and dark spoken words. The Puissance mark of quality is instantly familiar from the opening track 'Trace Elements', with its overwhelming choirs. A solid Puissance album with some nice cinematic hymns, making it one of their best works.

PUSSYGUTT - 'She Hid Behind Her Veil..' CD (20 Buck Spin)
Multi-instrumentalists Brittany McConnell Blake Green reside in the rural landscape outside of Boise, Idaho, where they create their dark, foreboding sounds away from the chaos of America’s large cities. "She Hid Behind Her Veil…", is comprised of a single track over 45 minutes in length. The sound occupies a dense space where the heavy, metallic drone sound of Black Boned Angel intersects with the minimalist string arrangements of Phillip Glass and the more ambient doom tendencies of Japan’s Corrupted. With its use of violin textures, the album sounds as much like a classical movement as an art-doom release. Draped in a cloak of gothic black doom ambiance and eerie, unsettling moods, "She Hid Behind Her Veil…" is an apparition of ghostly vision from one of America’s more isolated environments. Digipak.
