They Were Wrong, So We Drowned
They Were Wrong, So We Drowned is the new installment from the Liars reissue series, where every two months an album from the back catalog is released.  Originally released in 2004, Liars' second album scrutinizes pagan worship rituals in punkflore fashion with its title alluding to the horrors and injustices of witch-hunts conducted throughout history.  Each song is a page from a story that frontman Angus Andrews crafted from his in-depth look into fairy tales and folklore, illustrating a confl…

This, however, is the first release dedicated to the artist's audio work, collecting 28 tracks produced between the early 1980s and 2017. Compiled from dozens of hours of recordings left uncatalogued (some …
Malaria
*In process of stocking. Limited edition of 150 copies. First time reissued on vinyl* Inspired by the journals, letters, and photographs of James Jenkins, 1942-1943 from Luzon, Philippines. Writing letters in the rain under the canvas, listening to records played from the center of the mosquito nets, or from the veranda overlooking the city lights. It may not have been in the same places.. Under the waterfall, ignoring their calls, receiving a Dear John Letter, or being iced on your anniversary.…
Voices of Bishara
The title of Tom Skinner’s first release under his own name is a reference to cellist Abdul Wadud’s ultra-rare 1978 solo album ‘By Myself’, which Skinner listened to repeatedly during lockdown. Wadud’s album was privately pressed on his own label, Bisharra, and whilst Skinner’s title uses the more conventional spelling of this common Arabic name, they both have the same intention or meaning: it translates as ‘good news’, or ‘the bringer of good news’. This is a classic-sounding record that conne…
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* Society, as we have constituted it, will have no place for me, has none to offer; but Nature, whose sweet rains fall on unjust and just alike, will have clefts in the rocks where I may hide, and secret valleys in whose silence I may keep undisturbed. —Oscar Wilde, De Profundis Love is the voice under all silences, The hope which has no opposite in fear; The strength so strong mere force is feebleness: The truth more first than sun more last than star —…
Témoins
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* A series of commissioned works, each connected to a location given to me.

OBEX
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* To start AMT and Tarab exchanged materials and objects. AMT exchanged a single sound sculpture for Tarab’s collection of small objects. This material exchange led to activity. AMT manually manipulated, Tarab also, but more often than not he placed the sculpture in situations and let them work on it. Once again exchanges took place, this time of audio material. Elements where then selected and arranged and further rearranged; some left untouched and so…
Superpositions
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* Witness the common phenomenon of feedback such as produced inadvertently through poorly configured microphones and loudspeakers in public amplification situations: the sound coming from the speakers finds its way back into the microphones and produces an uncomfortable squealing sound. The component elements are electronic and acoustic, the latter involving air movement and vibration of physical objects. But internal electronic feedback is quite a curi…
Stikhiya
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* “Having realised the errors in rational knowledge I found it easier to free myself from the temptation of futile theorizing” Leo Tolstoy (1880) I understand this phrase as an expression of Stikhiya, the word used by Russian poet Aleksandr Blok in early 20th century to describe the fundamental value of primitive immediacy. Contradictory to intellectualism and rationality, Stikhiya is emerging from organic holistic experiences, it is perceived as an unf…
Under My Skin
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* Gintas K has been active as a composer, performer and interdisciplinary artist since the 1990s, focusing on experimental digital music aesthetics — overloaded massive structures, static and physically overwhelming frequencies, melodic ambiences, voice and field recordings. Gintas K has released several albums, four of which in "Crónica: Lengvai / 60 x one minute audio colours of 2kHz sound" (2006), "Lovely Banalities" (2009), "So On" (2010), and now "…
Hiku Komuro, Hikikomori
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* This album was created from January and December 2016 in Vigo, Galicia, using digital media in a Windows laptop, and hacked VST plug-ins from the late 1990s. Samples from old videogames were used as source materials, recorded with the freeware emulator Nestopia (v1.40) by Martin Freij, FM synthesis with Sound Forge (v6.0) and other synthesized sounds created with the modular synthesis freeware application SynFactory (v1.16rc1) by Peter Wendrich and Ru…
The Waste Land
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* Realities, appearing as multiple layers and folds in which memories, cognitions, perceptions are coined and ready to emerge. The starting point for The Waste Land was an invitation to compose a twenty minutes soundtrack for a documentary movie. Accordingly, Luca Forcucci received six minutes of a field recording, without any mention of its own nature, or any information about the documentary. Forcucci didn’t ask anything about it, instead he listened …
Doa-Hage-Rmn
Limited edition 88 numbered copies. At the dawn of the 1984 year, the apocalyptic interruption of Armaghedon hijacked neurological experimentation on the tracks of ancestral density, whose symbiotic traces can be found in the current Doa-Hage-Rmn, a radiological symphony that draws its inspiration from the electrolytic resonances of the most radical non-conformism. The exhortation is to pay attention to the subliminal message contained therein, which can be lethal for those who will not accept i…

Two Dream Sequences (ep)
* Edition of 250 *"These two sides were recorded at home in Stockholm in April last year, and are part of a series of recordings that I was making around that time that I called dream sequences for a number of reasons, but partly because they mixed attempts at unconscious playing of music with intentional recordings of external sounds e.g. drilling through walls, street noise, that were affecting my consciousness at the time of recording. Also I like dreams but not so much talking about them." -…
Arbor
Stoned to Death is happy to join forces with Stefan Christensen. Stefan is a huge inspiration for our label and our musical trips. He is based in New Haven, Connecticut and if you don't know his work yet, you are up for a nice discovery. His solo outfit is guitar based and very prolific, very idiosyncratic and very surprising. Stefan's discography is a journey through various forms and styles ranging from minimal drones through outsider folk to loud guitar improv and broken free rock anthems.  S…
