Re-issue of industrial music's 'holy grail', released back in 1984 on Eskimo Records. Not much is known about this obscure Japanese band, White Hospital are a duo, Jun Konagaya of Grim and Tomo Kuwahara of Vasilisk. In the early 80s Jun formed White Hospital together with Tomasada Kuwahara. They released one album called “Holocaust” in 1984 and a 7″ “We Wish You Are Merry X’mas”. Kuwuhara moved on to Vasilisk, while Jun released a number of solo records as Grim and one track as Howling Of Himala…
Circadian Rhythm, Sleep Disorder
LOGOS “The idea of dedicating a record to sleeping disorders hit my mind as an illumination when two tracks were already done and I was trying to find out their obscure sense. The more I searched for it the more I couldn”t sleep at night. Composing during nightime, through headphones, is a kind of sleep treatment for me. In a big city like Rome silence is a nearly nonexistent condition; only at night I seem to have the silence I need to concentrate, but some lonely car running down the road alwa…

Tobel II
Reinhold Friedl, inside piano. Franck Vigroux, electronics. 'An encounter between two worlds. Reinhold Friedl and Franck Vigroux are two musicians, both addicted to a real contemporary approach, getting to the core of sound but by very different means. Reinhold Friedl with his purely acoustic instrument and his highly developed and refined inside-piano techniques meets Franck Vigroux with his electronics including all kind of devices from tape recorders to analog synthesizers. Their sole purpos…
De Las Colonias Del Río De La Plata
Altercat proudly presents the definitive reissue of one of the crown jewels of South American jazz. Essentially the brainchild of Argentinian jazz’s leading figure Jorge López Ruiz, the project Viejas Raíces marked Lopez Ruiz’s departure from the traditional forms of jazz.
Dante Trilogy: Tremor. Spore. Legacy
An almost his 25 year existency as Vidna Ombana (Dirk Serries) never shied away from challenges, sometimes to the regret of many of his fans, but it’s when he was offered a record deal with the renowned metal label Relapse Records/Release Entertainment Vidna Obmana took his boldest step ever.

Versatile Arab Chord Chart
Versatile Arab Chord Chart is the second full-length outing by the quintet of Neil Campbell, Michael Flower, Julian Bradley, Bridget Hayden and Adam Davenport. Like their UK cousins and fellow VHF recording artists Sunroof!, Vibracathedral Orchestra usually works from a base of modal improvisation. Led by Campbell's sawing violin, tracks like "Wearing Quid Frock" and the epic "Japan Banjo" build up arcs of lingering overtones beneath an undercurrent of melody. They cut the drones in their life w…
Window In
**CD version** "Window In is Michael Vallera’s third full length offering on Denovali, following All Perfect Days (2018) and Vivid Flu (2017). The four tracks that compose Window In are an exercise in density, movement, and space. Raw studio recordings of electric guitar were taken as the foundation, then heavily altered and manipulated through sampling, erasing the trace back to origin of the sound. The result is a series of vignettes that are unattached to a particular source but instead exist…
Vauville
** Edition of 200 ** The compositions on this album started out after travelling to Normandy (France) where a week long I took inspiration on the quiet beaches listening to the sounds of the waves, the wind and the natural sounds. Starting out with field-recordings from church bells and improvised sessions on organ the idea arose to recreate the ever ongoing soundscapes of self-preservation as heard on those beaches. After moving from Antwerp to Brussels new inspiration came. New impressions fr…
Kulverzuchter
With Kulverzuchter Bas van Huizen returns to Moving Furniture Records for his third album. After the visceral and noisy releases Kluwekracht (2015) and Waanzintraan (2016) this album offers more minimal and ambient explorations. Kulverzuchter and the accompanying video are perhaps Bas at his most understated. On this album he seems to embrace doubt and uncertainty. The music is hazy, ambiguous and uncanny. The textures are toned down and the sound less layered, but there is a lot happening below…
Live Blood
Formed in Japan after the collapse of the noisy, SPK-ish White Hospital — the other half of which, Jun Konagaya, went on to continue as Grim — Vasilisk consisted of Tomo Kuwabara and Yukio Nagoshi, with other members (including longtime fixture of the Japanese underground, drummer Tatsuya Yoshida) joining in from time to time.
Live Blood was compiled from two live sessions held in Tokyo in 1992 and 1993, music is like a looser version of the explorations into African tribal music manifested by a…

Ossido Di Cromo (Anamnesi Mediatica Ricostruttiva)
You can’t speak of industrial music without mentioning the cassette tape. The tape was an essential format in the formative years of the experimental, industrial underground, and has remained a significant factor within the post-industrial scenes ever since. Where right now the cassette tape is going through some kind of fetishized hipster-revival in other scenes, in industrial, experimental and noise music it never died. The tape was a revolutionary format for Paolo Bandera as well, who capture…
Eco Solemnis
More than 30 years since their first release, French Regard Extrême are back with a new album, their third on Steinklang. Stylistically, Eco Solemnis builds upon the foundation established on previous albums: medieval music and orchestral neoclassical with elements of martial industrial. In comparison to the previous album of new music, 2021's Ars Veterum, Eco Solemnis incorporates more prominently the neoclassical elements of earlier Regard Extrême, but without abandoning the medieval, even mon…
Säkeitä Esoteerisesta Euroopasta
On their third album, Finnish Dieux Des Cimetières continue to explore the territory of the martial post-industrial underground. Achingly melancholic melodies, sweeping strings, atmospheric orchestrations, martial percussion and pulsating synths combine to create an intricate album of esoteric neoclassical and martial industrial. Influenced by authors such as Giuliano Kremmerz, Oswald Spengler, H.P. Blavatsky and Mircea Eliade, Säkeitä esoteerisesta Euroopasta (Verses on Esoteric Europa) looks a…
We Don't Drink Alone
Division S are here again - and this time they don't drink alone. As always, the Italians have an unhealthy obsession with alcohol, as is testified not only in the name of the album and many of the tracks, but also the music. There is a psychedelic, outlandish weirdness to be found in the weird atmosphere and feel of this music. What to call it? Tags one often finds attached to Division S ring hollow and untrue on a deep level, despite being superficially suitable. Yes, there are elements of neo…
Krieger...denn Dein Ist Dein Reich
Originally released in 2002 as limited edition of 450 handnumbered copies 12" on 220g vinyl.
Conglomerate Malaction
With titles such as Membranous Glomerunonephritis, Cleidocranial Dysostosis and Alessitimia (more familiar to English-speakers as alexithymia), Italian Whiterat firmly put the focus of Conglomerate Malaction on all things disfigured, diseased and aberrant. In the form of a vicious deluge of harsh noise, the tape plunges deep into the distressing, mortifying depths of corruption.
Blaring walls of crackling static; distorted and manipulated sounds of abused metal; ear piercing shrill screeching. F…
