The Poisoner
2024 stock. Beginning their recording career in the late Seventies and early Eighties with the extreme noise of Knees and Bones (Multimood, n√©e Psychout), Controlled Bleeding quickly established themselves as notoriously unpredictable purveyors of new music, exploring the realms of hard dance music, nightmarish electro-acoustic soundscapes, mournful liturgical hymns of faith, and dark orchestral scores. A diverse catalog of CDs including Trudge (Wax Trax!), Golgotha (Staalplaat), Songs from the…
Quasimodo the Street Sweeper
"What remarks can recall the pampered page when the subject shines through so many shaken seams? The remarks are for the producer of Quasimodo The Streetsweeper, the mysterious, though constantly revealing, CF, presenting himself here as Universal Cell Unlock. Christopher Forgues of Brown Recluse Alpha, Mark Lord, Kites, and author of blazetastic comic books –ever checkout Power Masters? What remarks could remain after all that? However, one still finds this fresh pile of inviting and mature mus…

Gaute Granli + Contumace
Each year, cave12 publishes a recording from its sound archives. This album brings together two artists whose concerts took place a few months apart. This edition has chosen to juxtapose their performances which strangely respond to each other putting them into perspective as if by a mirroring effect activated by our memory.
Gaute Granli "Out there Norwegian guitarist-performer-singer, Gaute Granli, a true prodigy of (de)structured psychedelic song that we have been following since his beginnin…
Schickreich
*150 copies limited edition* Jabbering people, a dry bassline, nagging punks, the bassline again, a dry cough, the U-1 passes by a guitar starts weeping: welcome to Schickreich, a rare recording of a super group that cut short into a duo. Comprised of bass, hurdy gurdy, Jew’s harp player, DJ, Intermedia-artist Udo Erdenreich, and Berlin’s cosmic kraut legend Günter Schickert. They were bandmates in Ziguri and played since the late 1980s off and on as Schickreich. Marmo now brings to life an albu…

*100 copies limited edition* Entrefer presents a collaboration between Gaël Angelis and Magali Sanheira. United under the Carbon Sink moniker, the duo pursue their own approach to organic Industrial musique concrète with an arsenal of tool. Recorded both in studio and live, "Climatic Paragon" offers a 70-minute wild ride through electroacoustic warfare and free improvisation.
Gaël Angelis : 40x40 amplified copper plate, stones, rusted metal, shells, granular sampler, field recordings Magali Sanh…

Amaterasu / Tsukuyomi
Tip! *300 copies limited edition in a deluxe wooden box* Prepare to embark on a sonic odyssey as we unveil the official reissue of Grim's groundbreaking Amaterasu 7". A visionary one-man project, crafted by Jun Konagaya, Grim transcends the conventional boundaries of industrial music, power electronics, and noise. Emerging from the ashes of the legendary White Hospital, Konagaya's artistic trajectory spans nearly three decades, with a unique ability to draw inspiration from a diverse array of in…
Salvado
*300 copies limited release* Recorded during two days in the spring of 2022, Salvado sees Lettera 22 go all in musique concrete. One single long tape loop worming its way around a room through three reel recorders, only sparingly tampered with in the process. The result is far from uneventful or passive though, as all the ghosts in the old machinery seem to come alive. An album perfect for nighttime immersion. Loud playback recommended.
Manuale di cultura industriale (Book)
*2023 stock. Italian language edition* This edition of "Manuale di CUlturea Industriale" entirely revised, updated, and increased by more than fifty percent from the previous edition edited by Paolo Bandera, remains the reference text of an uncompromising counterculture that has been able to resist the blandishments of the market for twenty years.
Music, performance, radical philosophies noisily sing the end of the industrial age. From here all "hard" musical forms have taken inspiration, from p…
Get's
Tip! Geins't Naït was founded in Nancy, France, in 1986 by Thierry Merigout and Vincent Hachet, both students at the Architecture School of Nancy. A year later Laurent Petitgrand joined the band. Their sound is often described as an equivalent of bands like Einstürzende Neubauten, Coil or Test Dept., but Geins't Naït is not pure classic Industrial. While Geins't Naït offers rough pieces of music as an extension of its punk attitude, Petitgand refines them to create some musicality within the pos…
Pastoral
*200 copies, limited edition* While Korm Plastics publishes books these days, this is a surprise CD only release. We sent him this demo in 2011 & we all forgot about it. Pastoral is a welcome edition to the catalog showcasing a less aggressive stance from the project, a more organic subdued presentation, sounds to make a clearing, & open space. The recordings history is a bit blurred now but it is very likely tracks 1, 2, 3, & 5 are Kurt Griesch and Daniel Burke, post 1995 tour work. Track four …
Nul Nul - The Complete Edition
In October 1984, Frans de Waard started his Korm Plastics label and his music project Kapotte Muziek. Shortly after, a fellow student, Christian Nijs, joined him as a musical partner. They quickly released a few cassettes and contributed to international compilations, and Nijs started a short-lived label, Disabuse Transmissions. In the summer of 1985, they published the first issue of Nul Nul, a fanzine, to promote their projects and to support the industrial music scene in The Netherlands and B…
Räkenskapens Dag
A small chunk of early 80's Swedish DIY underground history from the legendary but rarely heard Fysisk Fostran. Based in the small town of Stenungsund north of Gothenburg and roughly active between 1980 and 1984, the group released a few cassettes as well as a fabled 7" that due to mysterious complications only exist as a testpressing in 4 copies. Fysisk Fostran were inspired by the early UK industrial sound as well as post-punk and synth music, this combined with the young age of the bandmember…
Avaler Des Couleuvres
Tip! LP release by Fougère honcho Kévin Orliange. Repetitive music made with tape loops, which tell the bad weather and deep industrial forest of the place where he lives called Le Plateau de Millevaches (who inspired Deuleuze and Guattari's Mille Plateaux).
Golden Joy Club
Gaining prominence during the 1980s home recording movement, Randy Greif has built a devoted following over the years for his unorthodox compositional style. On his early tapes, industrial and dark ambient textures are melded with cinematic song structure more akin to the most wildly experimental of post-punk acts. “Golden Joy Club”, first released as a cassette in 1986, is a well-known highlight of this era. Transferred from its original master tape and newly restored for CD by Grant Richardson…
Stoned Mirror
*2023 stock* The end of eternity. Another soundtrack of Texas chainsaw massacre. Burried Machine manages to combine tape loops and synth in a manner that is both aggressive & relaxing at the same time. Fans of old school industrial noise take note. Shin Chida’s project Burried Machine has not received the attention it rightly deserves which is unfortunate as it is connects industrial, noise and musique concrète in a rewarding way.
Axolotl
The trio Lotto consists of: Łukasz Rychlicki (Kristen), Mike Majkowski (Hailu Mergia Trio, Oren Ambarchi Hubris) and Paweł Szpura (Hera, Wovoka). By publishing two completely different materials at the same time, they can cause considerable embarrassment to listeners and journalists or bloggers willing to pigeonhole and define them.
The basic tracks for the Axolotl album were recorded at the end of September 2021 in Szczecin, and the recording engineer was Adam Sołtysik (Dynasonic). During the s…
Sketches Of The Red Districts
** Deluxe LP. Comes in a gatefold sleeve with 16 page LP sized booklet & download card** This new Laibach album, through a new/fresh interpretation, examines the conflict-ridden genesis of the band's formation in the industrial town of Trbovlje in 1980 and questions the band's aesthetic, sonic and ideological roots from the distance of time. The group Laibach was established, in fact, in the year 1980 in Trbovlje, an industrial coal mining town in the centre of Slovenia (YU). Upon its founding …
The Beggar
The sixteenth studio album from Swans, The Beggar, will be available on double vinyl in a brown chipboard sleeve with poster and a download card for accessing an additional 44 minutes of music (which is included on the CD version).
The Beggar was written and produced by Michael Gira and features contributions from recent and former Swans, members of Angels of Light, as well as guest Swan Ben Frost. "After numerous pandemic-induced cancellations of tours for the previous Swans album leaving mean…
