ULTRASOUND - 'Death Comes From The Left' 7" (Drone Records)
Coming originally from Texas, the trio ultrasound (partly ex-Stars Of The Lid) are now located in Den Haag, Netherlands, and Texas, USA. With this, their first ever 7", they present two unbelievable emotional touching pieces of guitar and bass-drone-music, where long echoes of overtone guitar-sounds melt in one stream of pure sensible acoustics. Ultrasound submerges the listener into a deep salty sea to float on the frail border between air and water, light and reflection, perception and knowing. This is pure yearning transformed into sounds. Second edition of 300 copies on clear vinyl in a clear sleeve with sticker.

ULVER - 'A Quick Fix Of Melancholy EP' MCD (The End Records)
"Just having finished two movie soundtracks, with 'Lyckantropen Themes' receiving a Norwegian Grammy nomination, Ulver's 'A Quick Fix of Melancholy' is from the spaces in between. A passage over passages, reintroducing vocals to the delight of the faithful. Chamber music for the fucked and locked-up". Reminds of early Coil (c. scatology) in places, but with real strings. Recommended!

ULVER - 'Shadows Of The Sun' CD (The End Records)
Great sorrow from the Norwegian legends Ulver. Music driven to despair, all sad and solitary, written and produced under the threat of extinction. "Shadows Of The Sun" is Ulver's 7th full-length album, the band's most personal record to date. Low-key, dark, and tragic. "The most intimate and passionate Ulver release yet, "Shadows Of The Sun" is a somber and tragic masterpiece, a true reflection of the far inner reaches of the soul and heart..." (BW&BK)

UMBRA NIHIL - 'The Borderland Rituals' CD (Epidemie)
After their debut album "Gnoia", Finnish band Umbra Nihil present "The Borderland Rituals: - 5 long obscure, frosty compositions of hypnotic doom metal. The album was inspired by the brooding horror novel The House on the Borderland. In order to achieve a suitable claustrophobic sound and eerie, forbidding atmosphere the album was recorded in an isolated and quarantined abandoned house, sullenly crafting the band's sound into a more organic and gelatinous direction. As the troupe's sound went through changes amidst the locale of rural decay, so did the initial Hodgsonian concept of the album - turning from a mere literary reference in lyrics into a much more personal account of borderland existence.

UNICORN - 'Playing With Light' Enhanced CD (Housepig)
A field report from an outpost at the border where droning ambience, minimalist melody and pure noise share an uneasy truce. Unicorn (featuring long-time members of Bastard Noise and Sleestak) serves up seven tracks, where melodic lines skate across a surface of disturbing drones and scathing noise. Enhanced content includes three short films by Stephanie Miller, with soundtracks by Unicorn. Presented in a gorgeous letter-pressed sleeve by Thumbprint press.
Four trance-inducing, ritualistic Industrial / Ambient tracks by this Danish artist, known for his 2003 vinyl collaboration with Nurse With Wound. "Winter Songs" was originally composed for a show with the Rev. Steven Leyba Johnson (with cover art by Johnson). This is the darkest Unveiled release to date. Limited edition of 300 copies with a bonus VCD of the aforementioned ritual performance, entitled "Steven Johnson Leyba - Live In Copenhagen".
Ur was born from the collaboration between Federico Esposito and Mauro Sciaccaluga, both hailing from the hardcore-punk scene. The two joined in 2003 to create a new entity. Andrea Ferraris joined the band in early 2005. Ur's music is mostly based on improvisation that usually starts with drones or samples (with no pre-defined structure), over which they superimpose layers of electro-acoustic noisescapes coming from objects, field recordings, analog and traditional instruments processed using a load of pedals and effects. The sound paints a solid, harsh and dramatic industrial lounge where archaic instincts and modern obsessions meet. Outsized folder. Ltd x 300. Israeli import.

URANIUM USSR 1972 - 'Avarie' CD (Small Voices)
Uranium USSR 1972 is a sice-project of Angelo Bergamini (Kirlian Camera). A chapter apart in the history of ambient-trance music, able to evoke strange and sometimes nervous alien urban worlds. Intimately powerful and innovative, this long awaited UU72 ''opera prima'' is a successful combination of new electronic horizons and retro vintage machines, not paying any debt to any ''experimentalists'' in particular. Once again, Bergamini surprises us with a unique idea, giving life to a restless and rainy scenery made of extreme solitude, alienated rhythms and touching moments, all permeated by an unusual sense of black humour. With sumptuous artwork by Elena Alice Fossi (Kirlian Camera), 'Avarie' is presented in a 6-panel digipak with booklet.

This record is evanescent and paranoiac at the same time, fixing a point of no return somewhere in the distance. Ltd x 500 copies in a 6-panel fold-out card envelope.

URE THRALL - 'Arabian Nightmares' CD (Tesco Organisation)
"Arabian Knightmares" is one man's effort to reflect the unfolding events of the current worldwide sectarian war in a series of harmonic constructs, utilising actual sounds from the major events of the struggle (9/11, the Iraq War, etc.) to provide a historic point of reference. The forlorn yet beautiful emotions that are unmistakable in Muslim song and prayer are reflected here in a context so unique that it is deeply stirring in a musical sense and simultaneously brutal with its emotional impact on the listener. Guest appearances from 23 Skidoo, Ferrara (Brain) Pan and The Fruitless Hand. Comes in a special die-cut card box folder with 8 postcards.
