Mechanics & Music (2CD)
"The Italian post-industrial scene has certainly been very rich: bands like Officine Schwartz, Rosemary's Baby, Ain Soph, Sigillum S, Atrax Morgue, T.A.C., and many others are testament to how this genre unexpectedly took root in Italy. F:A.R. came from a quiet city like Savona, yet their claustrophobic, frenzied, and obsessive music seems to originate in some hellish place dominated by disused factories with machinery that occasionally turns on itself. F:A.R. formed in the early 1980s and made …
No Future
*100 copies limited edition* “No Future” wasn’t the first work I listened to by Runes Order (known until shortly before as Order 1968), but it was certainly the one that most deeply disturbed my mind. It appeared as a cassette release, limited to 30 copies (the charm of bygone times…), in September 1993: a work that, as I mentioned, puzzled even the most devoted followers of the Genoese project. A project that, until then, had trodden the path of ritual industrial music, with a keen eye on our a…

Impending Divulgence
Startled out of a nightmare, words and melodies echo – emissaries of the Tempted Dissident. Minimalist analogue electronics and haunting vocal lines emerge from the darkness and get caught in the folds of the brain. That’s how you might feel after listening to the fourth album by Te/DIS. The clarity of the electronics and vocals does not fail to make an impact. With this release, Te/DIS continues the sonic path laid out by the previous albums, shaping a body of work whose internal coherence is a…
Déjà Si Mort
Déjà si mort is a manifesto of inconsolability. The eponymous title track is deeply moving. At its core lies a female voice of disarming authenticity, permeable and vulnerable. This creates an immense emotional density: pain that is not staged, but lived. This is underpinned by throbbing analogue drums, whose stoic pulse carries the almost liturgical synthesizer motif. The second track responds in its own way. And in general, Distoromance do things their own way – they sound like no one else.
