Noise & Industrial / Raw Electronics

Split between Incapacitants and Richard Ramirez, one fifteen-minute piece each, out on cassette earlier in 2026 and now on LP and CD in 200 copies per format, remastered by Lasse Marhaug.

Tip! First time vinyl reissue. As part of the 25th anniversary of Hospital Productions, the second CD from Richard Ramirez appeared in the sacred year of 1997 on the monolithic Praxis Dr. Bearmann imprint from Germany producing classics in a near perfect label discography from Merzbow, Macronympha, Militia, Aube, Taint, and more. In tribute to the late Kevin Ogg who was an early and influential member of Black Leather Jesus, Memorial stands as one of "the ones" that put Mr. Ramirez on the map wi…

This is a masterpiece album released in 1993 on Alchemy Records by Masonna, a solo project of Mazo Yamazaki who is acclaimed as one of the leading artists of Japanoise along with Merzbow and Emergency Staircase. It is finally being revived on vinyl! Cascades of electronic noise, a psychedelic touch and vocal belching mixed together constitute the ingredients of Mademoiselle Anne Sanglante Ou Notre Nymphomanie Auréolé, the double-barreled name for Masonna. Maso Yamazaki founded his project in 198…

Tip! *199 copies limited edition* Originally released on CD in 1990 by Alchemy Records as part of the Good Alchemy Series, Rainbow Electronics marks the pinnacle of Merzbow's late 80’s noise phase. Selected and transformed from about 21 hours tape of primitive raw material recorded during three years (1987-1990) in 14 fragments lasting about 74 minutes, this monumental work is an aural trip through a cold plotted universe of intergalactic space ships and golden celestial bodies. Remastered in De…

Massive, piercing, and raucous - deliberately raw and disorienting, "Noise" features tracks by musicians from mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan: Torturing Nurse, Wang Changcun, Mei Zhiyong, Ronez, Wang Fujui, Orgasm Denial, Li Jianhong, Xu Cheng, Zafka, and more... Originally released in a small edition China-only 2CDR 15-track set (2012, Kwanyin Records), this new edition of "Noise" incorporates seven additional sets of works; 22 tracks in total. Scattered throughout, they feel entirely nat…

*250 copies limited edition* For the first time on vinyl, the Prurient long form cassette ‘expunged from the record’ final shrine before the closing of the now highly controversial and inimitable brick and mortar basement recordings. Remastered for vinyl for ultra caustic stimulating misery going back to a time in new york that could only be described as ‘unsub’.

*In process of stocking. 200 copies limited edition* "It's actually surprising that this album ends up feeling quite a bit different in comparison to Enclosure, considering that they both have used the same source material, raw material from Ecobondage. This one is much more subdued, a series of industrial/musique concréte-like improv pieces evoking Nurse With Wound with its warbly, echoing, factory-like atmosphere, dominated by tape/vinyl scratches, speedups/slowdowns and homemade percussion fr…

*200 copies limited release* Paradise Pachinko is an album by the Japanese noise musician Merzbow. It consists of raw material recorded on four-track cassette. The album is named after and depicts the Pachinko Tengoku pachinko parlor.

Audio Pathology - the peak of the first era of the band and what many consider a stone cold classic of the genre. If anyone wants to know where to start with the seminal self-abusers of american noise - tell them ‘audio pathology’. If someone wants to know what your prognosis is - tell them ‘audio pathology’. If someone is willing to testify what they smelled in summerdale - ‘the decay of the angels’Originally released on armed and loaded on cd only, we present to you here for the first time on …

Tip! Noise Matrix unleashes material from the same sessions as noisembryo and counterpart 'hole' and selected recordings from the time period. Originally released as a bonus disc on the definitive ’Noisembryo' 2xcd edition  noise matrix absolutely can’t be missed for fans of this period of noise deity Merzbow. When people ask where to start with merzbow or the entire 90’s noise movement in japan - this is an answer! Masami Akita’s surrealism of the past stands prominently relevant to this day co…

Ninety-nine tracks in thirty minutes - the physical limit of what a compact disc can hold. Alternate Flash Heads, the second solo album by the saxophonist Ryoko Ono, issued in 2015 by Alchemy Records and produced by Jojo Hiroshige himself, is one of the great conceptual gambits of recent Japanese music: a single composition shattered into 99 palindrome-titled fragments, designed to be shuffled - so that no listener ever hears the same album twice. Ono, born in Sapporo in 1975 and long based in N…

Twenty-five artists, eight hours, one room. In May 2016, the Giga Noise mini festival brought together an entire cross-section of Japan's noise underground at Tokyo's Akihabara Goodman - a marathon showcase of mostly lesser-known and emerging acts from across the country, an event with few precedents even within a scene famous for its density. Giga Noise (Future of Noise), a sprawling double CD issued by Alchemy Records, is its official document - twenty-five live performances, and a snapshot of…

Sutcliffe Jugend Vol. I and Vol. 2 'Campaign 1979-2000'. Two Box Sets and 20 LPs celebrating Sutcliffe Jugend’s 44th Anniversary of their first music experiments in 1979, VOD-Records is proud to announce the release of an ultimate deluxe retrospective set including 2x10 LPs wooden box with booklet, certificate and t-shirt with special sleeves + booklets + t-shirt.  Founded in 1982 by Kevin Tomkins, who would depart less than a year later to join Whitehouse, the English transgressive art unit, Su…

Here we have an early live recording of the legendary Japanese noise band Hijokaidan, commonly known as the "King of Noise," which was made during their performance at the "Answer 81" event that took place in 1981 in a location known as "Kyoto TakuTaku." Although the recordings of this event were originally featured on their first album, "Zouroku No Kibyou," even though it was only a section of the album, it has now been finally made accessible as an independent work together with the entire rec…

A 1982 cassette by Abe Kaii, the duo of Jojo Hiroshige and Toshiji Mikawa, named in sly homage to free jazz saxophonist Kaoru Abe. A monolith of free jazz and psychedelic space rock from two future architects of Japanese noise, near impossible to hear for decades, reissued on Alchemy in 2017.

A 2018 live document from Hijokaidan in their definitive musical form: Jojo Hiroshige on guitar, Junko's voice, Toshiji Mikawa on electronics and Futoshi Okano on drums, fusing into a single dense wall of sound. The King of Noise captured live and unrepentant. On Alchemy.

Solmania's first album in 18 years: a single 64-minute slab of avant-garde guitar torture from Masahiko Ohno and Katsumi Sugahara, wrung from self-built multi-neck guitars bristling with extra pickups. Not a static wall but a continually evolving storm of feedback and tone. On Alchemy, 2016.

A 2015 meeting between Hijokaidan and Nasca Car, the Osaka electronic project of Nakaya Koichi. Two studio tracks and two live sets across more than forty minutes, the King of Noise's wall of sound crossed with Nasca Car's pulsing acid-house and new-wave electronics. On Alchemy.

*2022 stock* Japanoise queen and one of the noise innovators, Mayuko Hino (original member of the legendary C.C.C.C.) releases her first solo album! Akashic Records is blockbuster work of beautiful noise about the concept of a record of the activities of the soul of mankind. The world's only 6-strand theremin oscillator (coloured pink!), originally ordered by Ryo Araishi (ichion (Shrine.jp)) and harsh noise with brass plates etc. as the main sound sources. Recorded live with an emphasis on thril…

Tip! Lake of Fire is the 11th studio album by American harsh noise artist Jason Crumer. It features deep textures and a carefully crafted palette of harsh frequencies, all set within a grand cinematic scope, with bold and decadent walls of sound, true to the spirit of rock'n'roll. Rawness, immediacy, intensity, and brutality surge through every moment.

First time on CD for this classic Merzbow duo album from 1983. Material Action is a favorite among early Merzbow free-music, junk-noise workouts. Psychedelic improvised instrumental energy abounds on this essential early recording that is Pure Merz. Masami Akita plays tapes, percussion, electro-acoustic noise, organKiyoshi Mizutani overdubs tapes, synthesizer, violin, machine noise

The seminal classic first Whitehouse album released in 1980, one of the most important and influential records from the embryonic field of electronic and industrial music

*Limited Edition of 99 copies. Purple vinyl * Masami Akita has been making noise since before most people understood noise could be made on purpose, and Animal Magnetism is what happens when forty years of sonic terrorism suddenly decides to sit you down and explain itself without raising its voice. Originally released on CD in 2003, this double LP reissue—remastered by Lasse Marhaug and pressed on black or purple vinyl in a gatefold sleeve featuring Akita's own photographs—adds a previously unr…

The first album by the most extreme noise project to ever come out of Osaka, now in a second deluxe edition that borders on insanity: natural birch wooden box, hand-numbered to 99 copies, color print lid reproducing the iconic cover art by manga master Hideshi Hino. Inside: the LP, a 40-page book of raw concert photos, a cassette of six rare studio tracks from April and June 1980 - Hijokaidan's primal first breaths - four postcards, a massive poster, a live photo book, liner notes by Jojo Hirosh…

Los Angeles, Not the Totimorphous surveys The Haters’ uncompromising presence in Los Angeles, led by GX Jupitter-Larsen since 1979. This documentation compiles both contemporary and archival performances: the 2024 45th Anniversary Show at Coaxial Arts Center with GX, AMK, John Wiese, and Elden M weaponizing transistor radios, turntables, tape, and rust; a 2011 suitcase-smashing set at LACE; and a 1991 event devoted to tearing paper. Each iteration presents entropy and action as its own aesthetic…

New York About the Polywave chronicles both recent and archival New York performances by The Haters, the iconic noise and conceptual art collective led by GX Jupitter-Larsen since 1979. The collection includes the ferocious 2025 “Digging Through Time” show at TV Eye, where shovels and a large wooden clock met their entropy-fueled fate, as well as earlier interventions involving calculators against fans and amplified hole-punch devices. These actions expose The Haters’ unique sonic and conceptual…

Tip! "Expect the unexpected.  Masami Akita, corrupt mastermind behind the bound and gagged and tossed into the jet engine noise of Merzbow has, over the last years, really begun to stretch the limits of what he sonically does.  Seems, with releases (Tauromachine, Hybrid Noisebloom, 1930...), there has been more variety within the choppy slabs of noise that he designs. What we have here is, quite possibly, the most varied Merzbow release to date.  Why?  Because, amidst the stalk and squeal noise,…

Akashaplexia is the culmination of Merzbow and John Wiese’s decades-long partnership, offering over three hours of new music across four CDs. Recorded together in Tokyo, the album balances Merzbow’s psychedelic intensity and Wiese’s meticulous sonic architecture, presenting a vast and intricately detailed landscape of noise, improvisation, and unpredictable dynamic shifts.​

Tip! For more than a decade Plague Mother has occupied a highly influential position in the noise underground. The artist boasts a unique sound that blends haunting ambiance with crushing walls of noise, overlaid with an emotional intensity most artists would never even attempt. With an exacting compositional approach honed on cassette releases for some of the finest noise labels in operation, New Forces is proud to present the first full-length CD for Plague Mother. "Carrying Your Halo" is the …

Human terrain systems. Operational art. Combat maneuver. Unrelenting harsh electronics exploding at a breakneck pace. The first Breaking The Will full-length since 2015's "Choosing Death" is faster, rougher, and far deadlier. Tactical innovations driven by a world on the brink. Super-heated auditory munitions across six new tracks.

On Declension, Sissy Spacek’s core duo John Wiese and Ch. Mumma condense their most feral impulses into two mid‑2024 blowouts, erecting sheer walls of cascading electronics and scorched‑throat vocals that feel like being dropped into a collapsing star.

'Verrückt' was originally a split cassette release with Criminal Party from back in 1987 on the Japanese label Lunatic Propaganda. M.B. better known as Italian power electronics/avant-garde/noise artist Maurizio Bianchi contributed one side of the tape. Original copies are scarce, to say the least, so M.B. himself reissued it as a CDr and now St.An.Da. give it the vinyl treatment. Captivating '80s underground cassette music, bordering on ambient with its bubbling dreamlike soundscapes.

Tip! Years in the making split full length of brand new material of ‘harshtronics and exclamation’ from japan’s Masonna and ‘doom electronics’ by america’s Prurient. Arranged in alternating sequence with one track from each artist until burning annihilation.

The Gerogerigegege is a project I've dreamed of working with since hearing Hotel Ultra early on in my path of discovering all that noise has to offer. Here they offer up a noisy guitar and drum recording from 1985 Black Leather Jesus was also a project I dreamed of working with back then as well, and we kinda know what happened there. This is a more modern recording, of course. Harsh feedback, heavy crunch, and filthy, pervy fucking samples. I love how this one turned out.

Tyler Keen takes an unexpected and exciting turn. Thank You sees him demolish the unrelenting harsh noise he's known for in real time, knocking down walls and cutting wires one by one, rendering it a way more treacherous, perilous and above all open structure than before; imagine a harsh take on the sonic trapdoors of Joe Colley. Helping him out melting things down on two tracks are Kyle Flanagan and Michael Foster.

Regular edition of 110 * 6x cassettes of varying lengths packaged in poly bag with 50 page color booklet and inserts * Prurient's archival 25th anniversary document of live and unreleased cynical innocence spanning from 1997 - the mid 2000’s.

*70 copies limited edition* Inspired by Hindu spirituality and its connection to violent nationalism and political turmoil, Giuseppe (Sa Bruxa) summons solemn, hypnotic electronics against the modern world.

"Back in 2009 I had a small exhibition and a collaboration show with Yasutoshi Yoshida (one of my favorite noise artists ever, by the way) at Flying Teapot in Tokyo. I was also supposed to go to his place and record something but I got drunk and lost like an asshole. 13 years later our collaboration mayhem is out." Mastered by Ivan Fu for extra damage. Manuel's (Narcolepsia) words: "Yasutoshi Yoshida and Nicola Vinciguerra have both carved their own corner in underground, being consistent throug…

An act of concentration rendered explosive, Debt of Nature’s Robin Diamond’s Lungs lunges at complacency, fusing short-form assaults with caustic wit. The album is a lungful of serrated textures, stuttering rhythms, and a throughline of existential urgency, driving headlong into the contours of disillusion and revolt.

Gong, newly reissued on CD with bonus tracks, finds Sissy Spacek at their inventive peak, transforming the noise duo format into a meticulous, sprawling environment. The album’s two extended pieces are collages of violently manipulated junk noise, shattered electronics, and warped musical fragments, merging chaos and structure. Through masterful tape edits and dense, eerie atmospherics—including glass, metal, piano, and field recordings—the band delivers an immersive, unpredictable journey into …
