Etudes De Rien
* Edition of 200 copies, black vinyl * The New Blockaders are unique in the history of music and art. What, in our opinion, stands supreme in TNB’s 40-year existence is a passionate execution of their anarchistic and unconventional stance. In a biographical reference, TNB are often cited as pioneers of Noise music but for TNB themselves Noise music is not just an assault on tonality but a complex language of communication. From Luigi Russolo's 1913 Art Of Noise manifesto to TNB’s T.I.C. manifest…
Kyomu-No-Ne
*249 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* These 2 heavyweights and veterans of the harsh noise genre come together once again to deliver 3 tracks of junk noise nihilism. Titled “Kyomu-No-Ne” in Japanese, it loosely translates to the philosophical phrase “The Sound of Nihilism”.The complex mosaic of harsh frequencies stack and pile on each other relentlessly, detailing the richness of sound through crazed electronics and effects device manipulation. Organic sound elements get deconstructed and reg…
Seinsart : Live at Morden Tower
Tip! *Limited edition of 300 copies.* Live At Morden Tower was first released in 1983 and re-released many times through the years but never into CD format. Finally here comes the very first CD re-edition of such seminal work including as bonus also the track "Live At Anti-Fest".
Changez Les Blockeurs (1982), is the first true Noise LP of the modern era. Although Changez Les Blockeurs was undoubtedly hugely influential, TNB’s Live At Morden Tower cassette (1983) was perhaps even more so, just ab…
Changez Les Blockeurs
** Deluxe vinyl LP version. Much needed repress of this all time classic. Transparent vinyl ** Within the history of noise music, there are few artefacts, as seminal as The New Blockaders' Changez Les Blockeurs. Anyone who has even a casual interest in noise music should need no introduction to The New Blockaders. Hailed by Ron Lessard (of legendary US noise label RRR) as, ‘The first truly devoted noise artists,’ TNB self-released their debut LP in 1982. That original LP is now one of the most s…
Simphonie In X Major
Edition of 300 copies in digipack. Re-issue of noise classic Simphonie in X Major (1989) plus Simphonie in O Minor (1991).Quoting audion magazine' The New Blockaders certainly make one hell of a racket. Simphonie In X Major makes Whitehouse sound like minimal art! 'TNB are in a world of their own and always have been. Ripped out of the grooves and positively bleeding out of the speakers Simphonie In X Major takes Stockhausen's baby and abuses it cruelly. Once the bloody and battered carcass has…

The New Vortex Blockaders Campaign
Edition of 180 copies in digipack. First official re-issue. The New Vortex Blockaders Compaign was released on tape in 1984 and was bootlegged on LP in 1998. Both editions are now sought after collectors items. This release went down in noise history as a big classic, and is now reissued, in nice remastered form.'Extreme, nihilistic Musique Concrete which creates unrelenting walls of sound... Images of chaos, collapse and extreme violence dominate.' Aeon'This will rip your face off and wear it …
The Pulp Sessions II
Edition of 180 copies in digipack. 'When I heard the The New Blockaders / Organum ‘Pulp’ 7” in the mid-‘80s it was one of the noisiest things I had ever heard and I had heard plenty of Industrial Music and Power Electronica as well as a lot of earlier noisy music. On ‘The Pulp Sessions II’ Part I the noise levels and sounds change throughout the course of both sides, but the level of pandemonium remains constant. There are loads of feedback, radio, scraping, clanking, and other sounds, chopping …

Compilation including Nurse With Wound, Asmus Tietchens, Ralf Wehowsky, Thurston Moore, Merzbow, Jim O'Rourke and many more reworking of The New Blockaders's legendary LP from 1982.

In celebration of this, TNB invited some of…
Live At The Rammel Club / The Dome
2016 Release. The kings of UK confrontational Noise Music, The New Blockaders, surface yet again with these 2012 recordings, which features two lengthy performances captured in venues in Nottingham and London respectively. The first was part of the Broken Flag Festival held that year, the second as part of the Harbinger Sound Festival. That information alone might be helpful to put these recordings in context after all Steve Underwood, the owner of Harbinger Sound, had just published his first (…
The Pulp Sessions
Edition of 200 numbered copies Fans of Noise music will need no introduction to the work of The New Blockaders. Ron Lessard, of legendary US Noise label RRRecords, once stated, ‘I’d give the nod to TNB as being the first truly devoted Noise artists.’ In the early '80s, they laid down the gauntlet for the likes of Merzbow and Hanatarash et al to pick up later and their influence on the current crop of popular crossover Noise artists such as Wolf Eyes is immeasurable.In 1984, TNB collaborated with…
Der Graben
**Edition of 500** Der Graben ("The Ditch") is the "final" joint release by these two legendary noisemakers The New Blockaders and Organum, who have been collaborating for years. Or perhaps their collaborations all happened within a limited period of time, and these periodic releases have simply been documenting their work a few minutes at a time. Here they present two extremely short tracks, which may or may not be from their archive of collaborations. Sides A and B together total a mere 3 minu…
Scum Tactics parts 1 and 2
Clear vinyl, 150 copies. Scum Tactics is the first of dotdotdotmusic's new 12inch series. A new recording, new release by The New Blockaders, and one of the most dense and claustrophobic TNB releases yet. The two parts are distinct pieces, massively layered, endlessly changing, thick, metallic, crunching, violent
Haikagura
Rusting metal junk, discarded as trash by a world that saw no value in it, but when filled with blood, flesh and bone it can be transformed into potent sources of energy. Those chunks of energy are designed to rouse once more our savage souls, to drag us out of our comfortable everyday reality into an imaginary world. TNB present us with a choking, vacuum-like, hermetically sealed space where you utterly lose touch with your senses, whereas ABH dwell with our senses then push them towards freedo…

Viva Negativa vol. 1
A massive project done by Richard Rupenus. Includes TNB material reworked by 75 of the best international avant-garde/industrial/noise artists. "The New Blockaders were one of the UK 's most consistently defiant and formally hostile experimental groups. Starting with their name, they combined a masked mythology with a militant anti-art/anti-music stance which manifested itself in a series of obliterating aural documents. For all their lack of any public profile, TNB have had an absurdly dispropo…
