Gills cut into woman
"Terrifying monster of the ages raging with pent-up passions! ...with every man his mortal enemy ...and a woman's beauty his prey! Could only her beauty tame its savage fury?""...forbidden depths!" Creature libertinage; voyeur of the women's legs enveloped in dark waters. The hosiery has been cast aside in exchange for a one-piece to enter the watery depths, setting the stage for obsessive creature tendencies targeted toward the shapes of Kay Lawrence, Helen Dobson, and Marcia Barton. Sam McKi…
Self Title
There are no words to say how amazing the Heinz Hopf's debut album is. They are a harsh noise duo consisting of Matthias Andersson and Dan Johansson. The first is the mind behind the label Release the bats, and the second is the man behind the moniker Sewer Election. The result is 32 minutes of pure, brutal and uncompromising harsh noise. Comparisons with Incapacitants is too easy, their love of the Japanese noise is too evident. Comparisons that do not lead to the cloning of a sound. Thei…
Vibrant New Age
Sadly (for us left coasters), in November Ms Leyna Noel aka Psychic Reality decamped from SF to NYC, but before packing up her every worldly possession and road-tripping trans-America she eked out a sliver of precious time to hole up in the studio with Phil Manley (Trans Am, Jonas Reinhardt, etc) and record her long-awaited debut full-length on thick 2 inch tape. Vibrant New Age is the result. The name says it all. But Noel’s New Age is not the 80’s redux fad of healing crystals, pastel fades, d…
True Form
Lettera22 is a new project from Riccardo Mazza and Matteo Castro (of WW and Nico Vascellari fame). Influenced by the contest of their everyday living in a place compressed between countries, mountains and factories, their sight points directly to men, machines, fields.Tape loops, field recordings and feedbacks melted in a unique form by violent, dinamic and noisy structures. Blind fury moments in contrast with cavernous concrete parts give us the sound of desolation landings. What was concrete b…

Negative Tongue
Lettera 22 is a new project from Riccardo Mazza and Matteo Castro wich borns in the deep north east of Italy. Influenced by the contest of their everyday living in a place compressed between countries, mountains and factories, their sight points directly to men, machines, fields. Really dinamic structures composed by tape loops, field recordings and feedbacks are destroyed by a violent muscular manipulation. What was concrete becomes distant and too complex to be concrete anymore ,any sin…
Vague Maze
Pain Jerk and John Wiese are two titans of noise. Their collaborations are not a new. This is the stunning prologue, the first one, dated 2005. 7 minutes of synthesizers, electronics, noise.

Heart Ache & Dethroned
Deluxe gatefold 2LP version. Some of Broadrick's most outstanding work in the past decade. "Sixty-eight minutes of unreleased new/early Jesu on two LPs, including the band's lost 2004 EP Dethroned. There are few artists operating at the fringes of popular music today whose sound has not been in some way or another informed or shaped by the works of Justin K. Broadrick."
Tapes
** long op, few copies back in stock** Originally released in 1986 as an LP on Alchemy Records. With a cover and title paying homage to their krautrock heroes Faust, Hijokaidan's Tapes is a crucial entry in their discography, a record originally released in 1986 as sort of a career retrospective to date, comprising tracks from various eras and lineups, all only previously available on cassette. It starts off way back in 1979 with Hijokaidan's first ever recording, the studio-destroying (so …
Bildnerei die Geisteskranken Vol. 2. Ruhe
This is Mama Br solo with voice, tape, guitar, feedback. Limited to 300 copies. White vinyl. Cover from the artist. "A relatively tranquil trance induced by repetetive autistic thumping while Ms. Hjuler successfully calls down the moon. Lousy electric guitar, detuned piano, backwards cassette tapes, and a microphone banged against a floor all get guest spots. Best of all, there's a giggling section." Weirdo Records
Bildnerei die GeisteskrankenVol. 1. Es ist so
This is Mama Br solo with voice, tape, guitar, feedback. Limited to 300 copies. White vinyl. Cover from the artist."Frau Hjuler has few equals when it comes to shrieking like someone's tickling her with a hot poker. Here you start out with sound effects, in the form of cat meows & nippy dog barks, and move through some swooping feedback before the yowls and huffing noises begin in earnest" Weirdo records
Concussion Summer
'Concussion Summer' on Not Not Fun is by a merry band of travelers called Social Junk. I've never had concussion but I was hoping to this summer, sadly there's been no decent weather for me to go out tree climbing or trying to get myself set upon by gangs of local toughs. Next year, eh? It's kind of hard to know what to say about this LP really, other than I like it. Some bits are noisy and lo-fi tribal a bit like that amazing Heavy Winged LP from a couple of weeks back and there are even…
An Airless Field
Once again teaming up with Vampire Belt bod Bill Nace, improvisational grandmaster Paul Flaherty returns for this new LP, An Airless Field, which features Nace on guitar and Flaherty on tenor and alto sax. Nace opens the LP with a sustaining, steely effects-laden wash of noise, leaving a dark, almost industrial background for Flaherty to solo over. Much of the dynamic between the two seems to involve Nace laying down vibe-heavy atmospherics while Flaherty roams freely. The counterpoint…
Sepsis
Large ensemble Sissy Spacek recordings featuring the cream of LA. The line-up: John Wiese, Mitchell Brown, Joey Karam (The Locust), Peter Kolovos, Rick Potts (LAFMS), Damion Romero, Corydon Ronnau and Shannon Walter (16 Bitch Pile-Up). All the source recordings used for Sepsis were taken from a group improv session recorded for the Dublab radio in 2008. The recordings from each individual channel were later chopped and rearranged into audio collages byWiese without any regard to preserving group…
