A Stranger To Extreme
Western Siberian crime electronics centered around the figure of serial killer Vladimir Mukhankin. Feedback, vocals, tv samples, no computer editing.
...It Is Death.
A true gem of modern power electronics, with a vision and a personal touch and not just another boring rehash or real cheap version of the classics, as you can mostly find in recent years, especially when centered around such eternal themes. Absolute pinnacle in the art of Mike Golen, definitely not a new name that you should also know for his contribution to bands such as Sea Of Shit, Paucities and Winters In Osaka. ''A grim exploration of death, depression and confronting one's own mortality. …
Lascivious Progression
Mexican dark sleaze at its finest. No cheap stuff here, but a long running obsession, deep explorations and knowledge. From the mind behind Sodomy from Beyond, Hiroshima Dust, Sangre and Muerte Violenta publications etc.
Living in a Wet Dream
Hi class postmortem from Russia from this extremely talented visionary.
Year Zero
Barbarian Red Terror PE from the old cold world. Their most powerful statement to date, after two already impressive efforts on Styggelse and NBM. In the works for ages, recorded two times and submitted in its most powerful final version just before the pandemic broke loose... The perfect soundtrack for these final years of so called capitalist ''civilization'' in humanity's fading glow. Just excellent. Comes with an accompanying 24 page zine featuring visuals and manifesto from the band. So ex…
Like Straw and Meaningless
Cría Cuervos is the personal project of our old pal Eugenio Maggi, active since the 90s, and one of the most discreet, elusive, meaningful participants to 'the scene' that come to my mind when I think about ''italian underground''. ''Like Straw and Meaningless'' continues his new phase started with ''Bovarism'' on JDV moving from dark / ambient territories to a more stripped down yet atmospheric form of harsh noise. First copies come with a sticker.
The Unquiet Grave
New solo tape for our main man Mauro Sciaccaluga [Diazepam tapes, Deprivation, Parassitismo, Spasmo, RL, Sator... and countless more]
Chants, metal, bones.
Un Destino Perfido
Parassitismo from Genova come back with a vengeance delivering an impressive second effort, after a much praised self-titled debut cassette on their home imprint, Diazepam (also reissued on CD by AAD). Eerie, cold and murky synth-driven PE with a piercing dosage of feedback loops and junk / glass wreckage. "Un destino perfido" [trad. "A wicked fate"] has been recorded during a rather black summertime in the band's rehearsal room, located in the glorious Staglieno cemetery; apparently some voice…
Philip K. Dick Volume One
Following well-received releases on labels such as Satatuhatta, Krim Kram, and White Centipede Noise, Cyess Afxzs debuts a new series based on the novels of Philip K. Dick. It is tempting to describe this work as post-noise. But such verbiage is reductive at best.

Collapseland
Limited edition of 50 copies (hand-numbered sticker). Comes as white shell tape with pro print, 3 panel j-card, clear jewel case. Normal bias tape. All shrink-wrapped. M.S.B.R. (Molten Salt Breeder Reactor), aka Koji Tano, was one of the most respected noise artists to emerge from Japan's vibrant noise/experimental music scene of the 1990's. He played with countless other musicians and toured on 4 continents (Asia, Europe, North America and Australia). Much of his material was self-released on h…

All tracks were originally released on compilation cassettes during the 80s. Released here for the first time on LP format.

Odysseus
Tip! *50 copies limited edition* Another fine mess we've gotten you into
Tammisalo Tapes - The Final Early Recordings
*300 copies limited edition* Five early tracks of thundering noise from the finnish noise king. While perhaps best known as being one half of Testicle Hazard, his solo CD albums Bats In The Attic and Moon Over Torrelorca are modern day classics in our book, and we just felt it couldn't hurt to have some the recorded steps leading up to those albums made available in the compact disc format as well. Three rare odds-and ends kind of tracks, and finishing the disc is Keränen's Green Car Crash, orig…
Sunken Dimension
Cyess Afxzs and Scathing both represent the newer wave of harsh noise, with prolific output in recent years, coming up with top notch releases one after another, and in a way I feel it was only a matter of time for this fruitful collaboration to happen. These artists have a musical ear for harsh noise. We've been hearing it in their works with compositional, cinematic qualities. Perhaps because they live on different continents, the idea of them working actually together had not occurred to me b…
OAF
Paul van Trigt's project Idler delivers 20 minutes of fantastic micro-cassette abuse. Broken and primitive desolation, death rattle of failing telephone lines, the revolution of man-eating robot printers. Apocalyptic sound of dystopian electronics. 3" pro CD in mini digipak.
Children Of The Wisteria
Green Tea is noise project by Nick Forté (Half Mortal, Rorschach) with an extremely evocative, even psychedelic approach. 'Children of the Wisteria', the second full-length album following the project's brilliant debut on New Forces, brings forth wonderful and tasty harsh noise, floating on the currents of an exotic ocean of tranquillizing new age sounds. A deep listening and whole body experience for noise lovers.

Here are four recent Finnish noise artists cooking up a split with outstanding harsh noise, on a release that stands on its own feet. If you’ve been following what's happening in the scene, you should already know that these artists can definitely deliver. On top of everything, on this split they've found a common thread to make this release feel like a proper album, a rarely achieved feat with splits or compilations. There is also a double cassette metal box of this material released by Relictu…
Peace
Violent Shogun returns to Satatuhatta with a new CD called 'Peace.' This timely named album once again showcases what Remi does best. It combines atmospheric synth sounds and textured tape loops with harsher, organic bangs and scrapes to tell a story. No gimmicks, just true artistic vision using the tools of sound.
