MARBLEBOG - WIND OF MOORS

Mystical and esoteric Ambient album by one of the leading Hungarian underground Black Metal band.

MELEK-THA – PERFECT WORLD ERADICATION 1 COPY LEFT

This is as close to black/industrial as it gets one would think. Truly a fresh and welcome sound when compared to so much third rate black metal these days even if the incessant droning gets underneath after a while. Perfect for a long depressing drive in the night.

N.F.H -HACKELSEKISTA [SWEDEN]

Hypnotising, ambient, recorded in the wilderness, in decaying suburban environments, this is not the standard Black Metal release, in fact it's not Black Metal, it's a Dark Ambient project, with among others, Ravenlord of Woods of Infinity behind the group, consisting of 4 other members. If you want a soundscape that provides you with hate, with a sense of being there, that provokes your feelings, a CD without compromise, over 70min of the darkest of ambient/ritualistic sound to be discovered. Comes crowned in maybe the best looking booklet I ever seen. All in all, don't miss out. This will be a trip you will not forget.

NADJA / BLACK BONED ANGEL [DIGI] [CANADA/NEW ZEALAND]

The two 20+ minutes tracks contained on this self-titled collaboration have a less accessible vibe then the Jesu-like track on last year’s “Christ Send Light” EP. There are no vocals to be heard. They are comprised in equal parts of Nadja’s fuzzed-out, lurching and hazy dream-doom, and BBA’s razor-sharp metallic riff-shards. Extended passages of riff-static noise bleeds one track into the next while deep space eerieness looms ever present in the shadows. Finally the whole thing collapses under the weight of its own self-created black hole. This is the end.

NADJA - DESIRE IN UNEASINESS [DIGI] [CANADA]

An album of all new material from the acclaimed Canadian dreamsludge weavers Nadja.
Five colossal jams of eternally-fuzzy, ethereal dirge that are powered by the interlocking bass guitars of Leah Buckareff and Aidan Baker, who set loose a wave of monstrous grinding bass riffs amidst a fog of beautiful, swirling electronic effects. Desire also marks the first Nadja album to feature a live drummer in place of the drum machine programming that has driven the band's previous recordings, and the difference in the band's sound is apparent from the first crushing beats of album opener 'Disambiguation'. The organic drumming here takes Nadja's music into new realms of spacious jazzy exploration, dubby rhythms and cavernous psychedelia, while also delivering some of the band's most grooving, crushing hypno-bliss yet.

The package is a sturdy 4-panel gatefold jacket printed by Stoughton.

The 3rd sacred voyage of drone mantra purity from Om! Helmed by the master rhythm section of Chris Hakius (drums) and Al Cisneros (bass) (both formerly of Sleep) Pilgrimage contains four brand new songs featuring the gropus unique use of riff, cadence and chant. Lyrical themes address the processes of mind, psychic reality, astral and causal planes of being, and the nature of the soul. Pilgrimage was recorded and engineered by Steve Albini at his Electrial Audio studios in Chicago and produced by the band. Mastering was handled by Bob Weston (also of Shellac). Of particular note is how much the song-writing has developed and in turn makes the dynamics of the songs much more intensely powerful. The present journey finds the band expanding their vision into new territories.

PUSSYGUTT - SHE HID BEHIND HER VEIL… [DIGI] [USA]

Pussygutt’s new album, 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 LP.
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.

REVELATIONS OF RAIN – MARBLE SHADES OF DESPAIR [RUSSIA]

Past members of Ocean of Sorrow are now back with a new project of their own - Revelations of Rain! This melodic death-doom is very close to both old-school bands like My Dying Bride and new-wave European doom-death (Swallow the Sun, Mourning Beloveth). The lyrics, which are written in Russian have a very deep sense and greatly combine with heavy but melodic music of the band that continues the very best traditions of death-doom school.

This great death/doom metal can bring you the most fatal thoughts.
A 'best of' from the last 5 years of the bands existence.

SAMOTHRACE - LIFE’S TRADE CD [USA]

Samothrace plays ultra heavy doom with harsh alcohol-soaked vocals. And yet a somber melodic sense also permeates the 4 long tracks on Life’s Trade. Not in the overused, weepy Euro-doom tradition, but distinctly Midwestern, soulful and blues inflected. The songs shimmer with desperation, hopelessness and pain. “Awkward Hearts” is both world weary for the plight of the oppressed and also intensely personal. The melodic interplay of guitarist Bryan Spinks and Renata Castagna is distinct in doom played this heavy and each song is meticulously crafted for maximum emotional impact.

$14.99 AUD
$12.50 USD / €10.25 / £8.50

SAMUS - DESENGANO

Desengano is a surreal landscape of mutated freaked-rock comprised of lumbering sludge riffs that contort into tape/turntable manipulations amidst melodious keyboards and sustained guitar tones/drones. Ranging from the crushing droning doom-laden EARTH-esque guitar thud of "The Happy Sultan", and the bountiful melodies that playfully flow under the sugary electronica and plunderphonic jazz of "Super Orthopedic Caravan", to the expansive Ennio Morricone-influenced slide guitar ambience found in "Who's Pumping Estrada" and the wall reverbating drones and tape oscillating backwash that drifts into the no-wave dissonance of "Bone Ape Tit", SAMUS create a cohesive, multi dimensional soundtrack comprised of heavy duty psychedelia, avant-rock experimentalism, and opium-den cartoon soundtracks.

SAPTHURAN - TO THE EDGE OF LAND [USA]

SAPTHURAN takes a major step forward with this latest ode to the mystery and power of the crushing force where land meets sea. Killer new release by this U.S. melancholic black metal act. Those familiar with SAPTHURANS' debut "...In Hatred" which was put out on Wraith Productions will surely note the distinct improvement over an already killer formula.

SKULLFLOWER – IIIRD GATEKEEPER [DIGI-CD] [UK]

A reissue of Skullflower's acclaimed 1992 album IIIrd Gatekeeper, featuring the lineup of Matthew Bower (guitar), Stuart Dennison (drums and vocals), and Anthony DiFranco (bass). IIIrd Gatekeeper is an immensely heavy album that was originally released on HeadDirt, the label run by Justin Broadrick of Godflesh/Jesu/Final fame back in the early 90's, and featured Skullflower at their heaviest, grinding out slow, sludgy riffs and crushing, almost industrial rhythms amid a tempest of psychedelic guitar noise and dense sheets of feedback - easily the most crushing, rock-based music that Skullflower ever produced. IIIrd Gatekeeper served up a skulldozing dose of post-industrial dirge rock that sat comfortably next to Godflesh, Swans, and Ramleh in terms of dark, druggy, hypnotic lumbering heaviness.
Includes new liner notes, a new package design that retains all of the original artwork from the HeadDirt release, and a remastering job courtesy of Scott Hull at Visceral Sound.

$12.50 USD / €10.25 / £8.50

SKULLFLOWER – ORANGE CANYON MIND [UK]

After 20 years of existence, the legendary SKULLFLOWER remains one of the most influential purveyors of lumbering abstraction. The UK avatars of crushing, improvised drone rock return with Orange Canyon Mind, yielding a symphonic blast of hypnotic, hallucinatory feedback and pure amplified power that stretches into infinity and immerses the listener in sky-reaching heaviness and eruptive bliss.

SKULLFLOWER – TRIBULATION [UK]

A black-void beaming of utterly destroyed drone rock and crushing amplifier obliteration that rain down blizzards of black ash and punishing blasts of feedback skree. A dynamic, bleary-eyed meditation. An avalanche of powerdrone that threatens to take your cranium apart.

SO I HAD TO SHOOT HIM – ALPHA MALES & POPULAR GIRLS

Sugarcoated and venomous, marrying monstrous metallic riffing and surreal, swirling pop seizures to cyclones of gasoline-soaked noise skronk and arena-sized rock blowouts that are fronted with utter sass and ferocity, courtesy of frontwoman Countessa Von Bismark.

SOUVENIR'S YOUNG AMERICA – AN OCEAN WITHOUT WATER [DIGI-CD] [USA]

Lush, shimmering guitar ambience and hypnotic, propulsive instrumental heaviness wind through the dusty highways and burnt twilight skies of "An Ocean Without Water," the sophomore album from Richmond's Souvenir's Young America. Divided into six flowing movements, "An Ocean Without Water" is filled with intensely beautiful melodies that drift on lonesome harmonica strains and sparkling, celestial electronics, shot through with mystic, western slide guitar, passages of crushing angular riffage, rolling tribal drumming, and transcendent blues. Through their intricate song arrangements and moody textures, Souvenir's Young America has created an epic, emotional narrative. The sound draws from the collected DNA of forebears like Popul Vuh, Earth, Labradford, and Neurosis, yet they form a powerfully evocative instrumental language all of their own.

$14.99 AUD
$12.50 USD / €10.25 / £8.50

SOUVENIR’S YOUNG AMERICA – S/T [USA]

Monstrous instrumental post-metal. Creates sounds that could be called electronic, metal, prog, and ambient all at once. Yet it all works together completely. Epic, spiraling dirges with keyboards, percussion, samples, guitars, accordion, xylophone, cello, and much more fill these songs. Recorded, these sounds are layered together as if creating the textures of a painting. The final product comes out somewhere between Godspeed You Black Emperor and 70s biker metal.

STALAGGH – NIHILISTIK TERRROR [HOLLAND / BELGIUM]

Autopsy Kitchen Records are proud to unleash the first domestic pressing from terrror kult :Stalaggh: This release will combine both of their previous efforts of audio chicanery :Projekt Terrror: and :Projekt Nihil: together on one CD with an entirely new sound. The band updated and re-mastered the sound (done by Xardas of 20.SV) as well as recorded a brand new track available here only! Sickening sounds from the audio abyss...

STALAGGH – PROJEKT MISANTHROPIA DIGI-CD [HOLLAND / BELGIUM]

Amid the agonizing wails and livid atmosphere that exist as the core of Stalaggh's sound; Stalaggh's final masterwerk :Projekt Misanthropia: can certainly be called a progression from the earlier and already realized Stalaggh material....for the nonbelievers it will all start to make sense about 5 minutes into this hopelessly pessimistic journey. Stalaggh finally begin to utilize traditional instruments into their "recipe" and one can decipher from such inflection points less than harmonious guitar that certainly does nothing to bowdlerize the formula Stalaggh have commanded forth. Also in tow follow an array of conjured instruments/sounds atop the maniacal headspace that one MUST be in to simply be Stalaggh. :Projekt Misanthropia: is THE Stalaggh statement. The newly discovered overtones make even larger the undertones of previous Stalaggh statements. This is a fitting funeral for life itself. Gone completely wrong yet having never promised any certain outcome. Just like life.

STALAGGH – PROJEKT TERRROR DIGI-CD [HOLLAND / BELGIUM]

Projekt Terrror rereleased on digipack by Rigor Mortis, just as it originally was meant to be, hand numbered and limited to 2,000 copies.

STALAGGH - PROJEKT TERRROR [HOLLAND / BELGIUM] 1 COPY LEFT

Stalaggh propagates the sonic ideology of human genocide. The gates to total hysteria and madness are open again, manipulating sound waves and tortured screams hateful and dissonant, will please anyone that got into Projekt Nihil, however this record is by far more extreme, and will be a painful session for anyone who will sit through it all. This will be the darkest of winters... Co-released with New Era Productions and strictly limited to 1000 copies.

STALAGGH - PURE MISANTHROPIA [HOLLAND / BELGIUM]

This CD contains the original recording of Projekt Misanthropia, completely different and over 10 minutes longer. This is exactly how it sounded while Stalaggh performed their Audio-Terrror... Of this recording only a tape survived, which was digitally mastered for this limited release. This is for those who could bear the official release of Projekt Misanthropia. You will endure a far more extreme and raw version on this CD. This is Stalaggh in it's purest form. This CD is released with Stalaggh's permission and is limited to 300 copies

SUNN O))) / BORIS - ALTAR [DIGI-CD] [USA/JAPAN]

The “Altar” album is NOT a split album. “Altar” is a collaboration album between sunn 0))) and boris that is a result of both bands conceptualizing, writing and recording the album together as one entity. Both groups have stepped outside their previous sounds and created a wholly unique album that stands on its own unique ground. There are elements of each groups trademark sound within the album but true to each groups progressive and experimental aspects, “Altar” moves into a completely new dimension.

Also contributing additional entrancing textures are the guest collaborators on this album including:
Jesse Sykes (vocalist:Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter), Kim Thayil (Soundgarden), Joe Preston (earth, thrones, melvins, high on fire), Bill Herzog, Phil Wandescher (Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter), Rex Ritter (Jessamine, Fontanelle), Tos Niewenhuizen (Beaver, GOD) , and Steve Moore (earth).

The tones, emotions, and energy that lurks within Altar is beautifully ominous. It is a very bold statement from both artists that will not only appease the present cult following but brazenly induct new devotees.

SUNN O))) - MONOLITHS & DIMENSIONS [USA]

SUNN O))) is proud to present their 7th studio album, after 10 years of existence, entitled Monoliths & Dimensions. The album showcases the core guitar duo - Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson - incorporating influences from a plethora of guest musicians, bringing the SUNN O))) sound to epic new levels. The band also collaborated with composer Eyvind Kang (notable for his work with John Zorn, Marc Ribot, Bill Frisell, etc.) on various acoustic ensembles, in addition to the Helios fueled electric guitars and basses. Key players on the album include Australian guitar genius Oren Ambarchi, enigmatic Hungarian vocalist Attila Csihar (Mayhem, Tormentor, etc.) and slow music godfather Dylan Carlson (Earth), as well as Julian Priester (worked with Sun Ra in the 50s, John Coltrane’s African Brass band, and Herbie Hancock’s Sextant band) and new-music horn player Stuart Dempster. There's also an upright bass trio, French & English horns, harp & flute duo, piano, brass, reed & strings ensembles, and a Viennese woman's choir led by Persian vocal savant Jessika Kenney.

The album is not "SUNN O))) with strings" or "metal meets orchestra" material. The band took an approach concentrating on more of allusion toward the timbre of feedback and the instruments involved, so the piece is really illusory, beautiful and not entirely linear, stating that the end product is "the most musical piece we’ve done, and also the heaviest, powerful and most abstract set of chords we've laid to tape" The album was recorded and mixed by Randall Dunn & Mell Dettmer at various points over the last 2 years. As can be expected the packaging for this album is beautiful and appropriately compliments the audio content. Jewel case is sheathed by a velum O-card. Expansive 24 page booklet with velum cover and specially coated heavy-weight paper. Truly a site to behold!

Monoliths & Dimensions is practice in density, gravity and momentum.

THE TRUE BELTEZ - BELTANE 1 COPY LEFT

A melodic Black Metal variation with desperated, shrilled vocals and the occasional clean operatic voice.

THEE MALDOROR KOLLECTIVE – NEW ERA VIRAL ORDER

A massive extreme metal electrocution that is impossible to label: an opus of overloaded post metal eccentrically infected with harsh industrial beats, ritual dark ambient tissues, hypnotic EBM bass lines melted on a heavy metal machinery made up of inhuman trance-like riffs and schizoid vocals. This is neither for last-time vamp posers, not for trendy clowns of the extreme, nor for "satanic" blustering freaks. Radical, innovative, and outstanding! The aesthetic was strongly influenced by names such as Kenneth Anger, William Burroughs, Brion Gysin, and the social LaVeyan experience. The album is a concept work on the fundamental Liber Al vel Legis seen through the metaphor of CONTAGION: the disease, the viral effect and the impending of a new possible epidemic as the endemic reaction of our race in new aeon post-industrial social deflagration.

THORNSPAWN – SANCTIFIED BY SATAN’S BLOOD [USA]

TOTIMOSHI – MYSTERIOSO [ENHANCED-CD] [USA]

¿Mysterioso? , the second full length from Oakland, CA-based trio TOTIMOSHI, intersects earthquake-heavy rock and wicked sludge riffage with the wiry hooks and dynamics of 80's post-punk / new wave, Spanish melodies, and an adventurous, occasionally improvisational fuzz attack. It's like someone gave an old Beggars Banquet band a cocktail of steroids, huge amps, and battered copies of Melvins' Stoner Witch and Mainliner's Mellow Out. Heavy, crunchy, catchy,hypnotic - ¿Mysterioso? winds, grinds, and explodes every step of the way. This re-issued, re-tooled version features enhanced CD-ROM extras, including video , photos, and more.

The debut album from the Portland quartet Trees delivers two epic tracks of monolithic, blackened doom metal with a twisted, noise-damaged approach and a dank basement vibe. Trees craft glacial abstract riffs and rivers of ashen amplifier goo that fans of feedback-laden heaviosity will find highly satisfying, a kind of grinding, slow-motion black hole psychedelia that has a similiar hypnotic death-ritual quality as artists like Bloody Panda and Khanate, but with their own unique trance state of swirling guitar textures, horrific jet black dronescapes and ghoulish, excoriating vocals.

Even to this day, it is a remarkable piece of work created entirely with tone generators and EDP Wasps, and lyrically full of what would be their uncompromising trademark irony. It would prove instrumental in dragging avant garde electronic music a long way from its initially limited boundaries.

WHITEHOUSE – HALOGEN

The 1994 release "Halogen" is the 12th album from Whitehouse. Recorded by Steve Albini in Chicago, written by William Bennet, Peter Sotos and Jim Goodall. "Here, William Bennett's industrial-strength power electronics unit is going once again over the threshold of noise in another challenging display of depravity via electronics. Few other groups have gone to such extremes in sonic punishment and general lyrical nastiness, proving once again Whitehouse should be considered far beyond the realms of the noise and industrial genres they were often lumped in with. Once again the group pushes the boundaries of acceptability in the media as we know it." (All Music Guide).
Features disturbing colour artwork by Trevor Brown.

WHITEHOUSE – MUMMY AND DADDY

Third edition of Whitehouse's 1998 studio album. "The fainthearted should be warned of the recordings of Whitehouse. Noise music freaks will find even the most abrasive works of Merzbow, C.C.C.C., and the like to pale next to the extremity of these recordings... Fans of the group should know that this recording presents quite a departure from the analog sound of earlier works. In its place is an equally abrasive wall of digital noise made up of hammering beats and high-pitched drilling-tone punishment, over which the trademark dialogues of depravity and sickness are delivered in clipped distortion. An exercise in utter repulsion." (All Music Guide). The track 'Private' was produced by Steve Albini.
Features luscious Trevor Brown artwork, a newly-remastered and updated 16pp booklet with all the lyrics plus photos and information.

$16.99 USD / €13.99 / £11.50

Whitehouse 2007 studio album of anthemic "afro noise to blow your fucking mind". Some great screaming, apocalyptic vocals by both Bennett and Best, taking on the deranged aspect seen in older tracks such as "Wriggle Like a Fucking Eel". With some instrumental and calm tracks amongst their renowned Power Electronics style, this is perhaps the most experimental and wildly diverse Whitehouse album yet, expanding their sonic palette and pointing towards a brave new future.
16-page booklet with full lyrics and stunning artwork.

WILDILDLIFE – SIX [DIGI-CD]

Heavy, crunchy riffage rolls over celestial FX freakout and gang choral voices: part gluey pop hallucination, part psychedelic blast furnace, part metalloid skullcrush. Super melodic and catchy but vaguely menacing and dark at the same time: this is WILDILDLIFE. a wicked whirlpool of dense distorto crunch and freaky singing, raging metallic percussive pummel, tribal rhythms and crushing effects-soaked guitars, subdued floatational drones and ecstatically gorgeous melodies, all let loose in a series of psychedelic slowcore eruptions and swirling cosmic sludge.

WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM - BLACK CASCADE [DIGI-CD]

The third album from the grimm Cascadia black metal horde: Wolves In The Throne Room.
Black Cascade further solidifies their death like grip on the jewel throne of American Black Metal. Blazing and crystalline Metal riffs slowly collapse and shift into ritualistic dirges that invoke endless rain falling upon the ancient cedars of the pacific North West. It is as if the instruments are controlled by shadowy and elemental forces of nature rather than three forest-dwellers from Olympia,WA.
"Black Cascade" blazes down a slightly different path than the recently released "Malevolent Grain" EP. This album bleeds with a much more primal, raw and aggressive aesthetic than anything the band has done before.

$17.99 AUD
$15.25 USD / €12.50 / £10.50
