Adriva -- "Spenta" -- CD EP -- €10
2017 Mantra Spenta, Sacrament V, (ltd. 300)
Drone / Archaic. The contemplative piece of drone sound art will lead the listener to the depths of preconscious. As the microcosm and the macrocosm are equal, so all the secrets and all the wonders are hidden inside of our deep inner self. Stop the fuss of mind and look into your soul. This is the only way to see the Unfading Eternal Flame... Adriva is the project of Russian ethnographer, artist and musical avant-gardist Denis Shapovalov from Rostov-on-Don. Starting his way in the black metal underground of the early 90s, and after founding one of the first Russian folk pagan band Sunchariot, the artist changed the reference point for drone and experimental music. Unlike the darker and denser paintings of the late Sunchariot, Adriva music is based on the experience of myths and drawing inspiration from archaic beliefs and the culture of the ancients. Presented in 4-panel digipak. [label info]

Area Bombardment -- "Republic" -- CD -- €10
2017 Lichterklang, LK040, (ltd. 200)
Martial Industrial. Finally and after almost seven years since “In Hoc Signo Vinces” was released, LICHTERKLANG is proud to announce the release of “Republic”, the new opus of the Irish Martial Industrial project AREA BOMBARDMENT. „Republic“ marks the 10th anniversary of the band and was almost lost and forgotten on the hard-disc for six years for various reasons if the label would not have listened to it on a regular basis. It then took almost two years to get back in touch with Michael P. who agreed to finally release “Republic”. The tracks have been re-worked and re-mastered with some additional bonus stuff included. “Republic” is a conceptual work on the Irish history and the brave men that fought for their independence from England, proving that history and the Martial Industrial genre has more to offer than the constant relation to Third Reich related topics.

Arrowwood -- "Dark Fairytales" -- CD -- €10
2017 COD noizes, SHUM09
Dark Folk / Psychedelic Folk / Ritual. We are pleased to inform that we have released three records of the amazing American psych / dark-folk project Arrowwood. Two albums, "Hemlock And Spindle Flower" and "Eye Of Ivy, Thorn And Moss", were previously released only as DIY CDr, were instantly sold out and very quickly became "rarities". The third album, "Dark Fairytales", contains ten previously unreleased exclusive tracks, supplemented with material from the split recording with Novemthree, also released in DIY canons. "Hemlock And Spindle Flower" has been remastered for this release... Arrowwood is the "one-girl" project of multi-instrumentalist Chelsea Robb, positioning herself as "forest folk". Her music is addressed to Wiccan rituals, forgotten spells and mysterious forces that inhabit the depths of forest thickets. However, Arrowwood's music has its own unique sound, largely due to the truly unearthly voice of Chelsea, and the atmosphere that plunges the listener into a state of light autumn sadness... Despite the fact that the project is little known on the background of the titans of the dark folk scene, in the circles of connoisseurs it has long earned a cult status, including thanks to the collaborations with Novemthree and Kim Larsen’s Solanaceae.

Aura Shining Green -- "Kuumusiikkia / Kevaansade" -- CD -- €10
2017 COD noizes, SHUM11 / Der Schwarze Tod, tod44
Psychedelic Folk / Dark Folk / Ritual Ambient. A soft sound and a voice that sometimes turns into a whisper, like a melodious rustle of rain in the forest which dies between the spreaded branches and scarlet autumn leaves, acoustic guitar, synth backgrounds, piano, rare samples — a seemingly standard set of folk or psychedelic album. But Joonathan Elokuu's music lives in its own reality, in which the industrial civilization has not left its sinister trace of world wars and oil spills. It is pure melancholy, a poetic ritual, a mystery of the deliberate dream in which the heart can sing in unison with the voice of nature itself. Therefore, this music is so full of sadness about something forever lost... COD label and distribution with the support of Der Schwarze Tod presents a completely new album of the Finnish project Aura Shining Green «Kuumusiikkia», supplemented by the mini-album «Keväänsäde», published a few months earlier.

Gold of foliage, rubies of berries in green mossy carpets and silver of snow which wraps spruces and pines - all this can be found on the band's second album. [label info]

2014 Motus, M314017
Musique Concrète. Cirque (1994): premiered on May 23, 1994, Futura, Socar (Crest, Drôme, France). Cirque (Circus) was not intentionally composed for dance, but was from the very beginning connected to the dancer and choreographer Bernardo Montet: in 1989, the RTVE (Spanish television) commissioned a video-dance from director Robert Cahen who asked Michèle Bokanowski to write the music; the result, Solo, was filmed in Paris in the Arènes de Lutèce, and was choreographed and danced by Bernardo Montet on the first musical sequences sketched on the theme of the circus. In October 1995, Bernardo Montet premiered a choreography for eight dancers on Cirque. Cirque was produced in the studios of Kira BM Films and of Les Musiques de la Boulangère, both in Paris (France). The concert premiere was on May 23, 1994 in the Socar factory in Crest (France) during the first Futura festival. The recordings used in this music were produced between March 1988 and October 1993. The accordion was played by Jean-Louis Matinier... Enfance (2011) premiered on April 1, 2012, Présences «électronique», Salle 400 — Centquatre (Paris, France). [label info]

2014 Motus, M314018
Musique Concrète / Electroacoustic. Bruno Capelle is a composer, sound artist and teacher. He’s developing for more than twenty years a compositional work in the field of electroacoustic music. At the same time, he started a few years ago to involve himself physically in performance projects for which he uses devices and sound installments of his own. He’s currently focused on a live electroacoustic practice (analog synthesizers) as a soloist or in duets with the vocalist and sound artist Iris Lancery. His work is presented on a regular basis in France and foreign countries. “Bruno Capelle’s music, which has all the precious finery of simplicity, brings into play in order to do so a great complexity, even though its conception would respond to intuition.” (Philippe Mion) [label info]

Dwarfstar -- "Perplexing Reality" -- CD -- €10
2016 Epidemie Records, EPR087, (ltd. 300)
Post Black Metal. Dwarfstar is an ritual avantgarde transcendental musical project from Hungary. Dwarfstar’s first album was finally realized under the title of „Perplexing Reality”. The album contains 5 tracks in 61 minutes and come as limited edition of 300 hand numbered copies in jewel case. For fans of Ulver, Manes, Thy Catafalque... Dwarfstar has a strong spiritual background which is rooted in the ideas of Transcendental Voidism. Both the lyrics and the atmospheres concentrare on the Gnostic Knowledge, which helps to liberate the Transcendental Souls of human creatures from the prison of the material cosmos, from the claws of the transcendental paradoxon. Dwarfstar has nothing to do with those very popular empty-headed so called "satanic" views which are based mostly on goalless self-destruction, goalless hatred towards mankind, worshipping „darkness” etc. while in the background the so called followers are into partying, friendship, love and sex. NO!! Dwarfstar is a real manifestation of Rebellious Spirit and has two concrete goals: 1. God-Man realization (to reach the final Enlightenment) 2. To inspire the others (only the real Seekers) on their way of searching for the final Enlightenment. Of course the music of Dwarfstar is recommended for every open minded listener who like dark atmospheres in music and/or musical avantgardism, but this project can be completely appreciated only by the Real Spiritual Seekers (if there is any amongst the listeners of modern extreme music). Very important to mention that however Dwarfstar is deeply spiritual, but not religious at all. Dwarfstar concentrates on pure spiritual values, beyond the level of the religious rituals and religious force-glorification. Of course if somebody still needs some religious rituals which are useful for the given person on his/her own way of inner development, that is absolutely understood and not refused at all. But it does not mean, that Dwarfstar should ever support any kind of religious idiotism (the ways of holy blasphemy). When it comes to those forms of religious attitude which are based on zealotry, blind-belief, blind following and often malignant hypocrisy, Dwarfstar is definitely anti-religious. Dwarfstar also refuses the life-standards of the modern world and it's decadent societies. Also very important to mention, that Dwarfstar does not represent any political or nationalistic views.

Dark Folk / Noir Pop / Psychedelic Rock. «Evan Krestov» is an image of the narrator who tells weird stories about disappointment, fragility of human existence and the final time limit of all created things. Strange Music as a kind of myth or an old story, something abstract and weightless on a cosmic scale – as human life. It is a search for something is clearly unattainable, for the crown of the nonexistent king that nobody is destined to see. Through what thicket are you ready to wade to get knowledge and answers? All we know that there is not a «distant land, where there is no injustice», but there are always cranks, ready to look for such land. So let’s start our search with sounds of «Structures Of Existence». [label info]

Initially, he does not yet use the "overpainted" sound versions of the palimpsest to hide the leaps in the register.

The rawness of Lithurgy recording is associated with forced the remoteness of the recorder from the choir and readers. You'll hear the preaching of the great Russian elder John Krestiankin on the Annunciation. Recorded, processed and mixed by Noumen (7th April 2016 A.D.)." [from the author] Slim-case, pro-CDR.

Nytt Land -- "Odal" -- CD -- €10
2018 Cold Spring, CSR249CD
Nordic Folk. Siberian band NYTT LAND presents its new epic musical canvas. Working with the same unchanging 4 band-members, the musicians continue to revive the true magical sound of the Ancient North. OĐAL… HERITAGE… PATH TO THE ROOTS… Oðal is inspired by the traditional music of the indigenous peoples of Siberia, the Old Icelandic epic and the atmosphere of classic Norwegian black metal. This time the album was recorded without using samples; all parts of the instruments were performed live. All songs were recorded and mixed in one of the technical quality best Russian studios, “Radio Sibir”, which strongly affected the sound quality. All the sounds of nature were recorded in western Siberia and northern Norway... For the first time the 4-year-old son of Natalia and Anatoly, Yuri Pakhalenko, took part. By this they emphasise the concept of the album – heritage. As in the previous album, Fimbulvinter (CSR234CD), Oðal features the traditional Siberian overtone singing technique “kargyraa”, but the overtone singing by vocalist Natalia Pakhalenko gives a special character to the sound. This is very unique, since this technique is a almost exclusively a male singing practice due to its physicality... So, it’s time to start the path to the roots… Presented in a 6-panel digipak.

Riti Occulti -- "Secta" -- CD -- €10
2013 Epidemie Records, EPR081, (ltd. 300)
Doom Metal / Psychedelic. Riti Occulti were formed in Rome during the summer of 2011 by Niccoló Tricarico and Ivano Mandola. Their musical vision first took shape as a duo, consisting of bass and percussion. Their signature sound further developed with the inclusion of Luciano Lamanna as synthesizer player and Serena Mastracco, as well as Elisabetta Marchetti as vocalist. In January 2012 they were joined by Sara Del Regno as official keyboardist for live performances. The first homonymous full-length, roughly 50 minutes of monolithic riffs, immerses the listener into an abyss of dark psychedelic sounds and ritualistic atmospheres. They take a lot of inspiration for their unique sound from genres such as doom, black metal and the 70s psychedelic scene. Hence their music can be best descibed as a mix of hypnotic sounds and esoteric themes that guide the listener towards the left hand path... New album Secta is an heavier, atmospheric journey, through the alchemy and his secret language and signs. From lead to silver and gold, to reach the truth. Released in beautiful 4 panels hand numbered digipack with 12 pages booklet in edition of 300 copies. [label info]

She Spread Sorrow -- "Midori" -- CD -- €10
2018 Cold Spring, CSR251CD
Dark Ambient / Industrial. Midori is the third album by Italian artist She Spread Sorrow (Alice Kudalini). Midori tells a story, the escape from a harsh reality that becomes an echo of nightmares and visions, a house that is the scene of fear and anguish, a soul that is lost in pain to an epilogue of death and purification. The gloomy, intense, dreamlike sound, sometimes distorted, sometimes angelic is the soundtrack of a dramatic story, but also of relief. Duplicity is the key to this work. Death industrial with female vocals and ambient moments, more dilated, with sounds that also refer to a ritualistic horizon. Presented in a 6-panel digipak. [label info]

Six Dead Bulgarians -- "Marazm;a" -- CD -- €12
1995/2017 COD noizes, SHUM101
Industrial / Experimental / Old School. "Marasm;a" is the earliest sound work of the Bulgarians, bringing down on the listener an avalanche of technogenic psychosis and postmodern satire, quite in the spirit of the early Throbbing Gristle and Industrial Records. That just worth it a reversed song "Ohrana" (means "Security") from the cult Soviet cartoon "The Bremen Musicians", which Bulgarians turn into the Bulgarian folk song "Onarkho". In its atmosphere, the album goes back to the roots of Soviet industrial, namely to the album "Playing the Airplane Under the Bed" of the unforgettable project "Communism". Psychedelic voice samples, vibrations of analog synthesizers, imitation of throat singing, cassette loops, factory noises, robot marches and moans of biomechanical prostitutes. At the same time, all this abundance of anti-music streams is given in very adjusted doses, not merging into a formless mass. Conceptualism in action... Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind... The first and only official edition of the legendary records. [label info]

Six Dead Bulgarians -- "The Freaks: No Violence Over The Individual" -- CD -- €12
1995/2017 COD noizes, SHUM102
Industrial / Experimental / Old School. "The Freaks: No Violence Over The Individual". Already in the title of the album it reveals the branded "Bulgarian" irony, with which the authors set off a painful traumatic sound, designed to open the psychic shell, like an old furuncle. The sound became tougher, more aggressive and darker. And the postmodern game with ridiculous names of compositions, like "Agrarian Question", "It Was A Man Of Years Of Fifty", etc. only "knocks" the listener out of the way, breaking the usual boundaries of perception, since in this album appear a serious approach to sound, appeal to ritual elements and psy-ambient with the dominance of metal percussion. As the closest analogue can be called the early work of Zoviet France and Nurse With Wound... Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind...

Six Dead Bulgarians -- "The Flat Polish Holes: Mystery Of The Black Box" -- CD -- €12
1996/2017 COD noizes, SHUM103
Industrial / Experimental / Old School. "The Flat Polish Holes: Mystery Of The Black Box" is one of the darkest works of Bulgarians, imbued with some absolutely transcendental dark melancholy and suicidal drive. "Mystery Of The Black Box" as the key to the door of Death, where each will find his own personal hell. The avant-garde lo-fi songs "Lullaby" and "Eesona", bordering the kitsch, is replaced by volumetric ritual ambient canvases, as if illustrating the contrast of The Being where rotting corpses on Golden Thrones are mixed with homeless, which steals cat canned food on the background of white smiles of pop stars. Especially distinguished is the track "New Boots" (the absurdity of names is a firm feature of Bulgarians, however, emphasizing their relationship with the Russian literary avant-garde of the Silver Age), which creates a landscape of certain prenatal State where all is equal: the absolute knowledge, and the absolute fear, and the inhuman peace. As for the "Allergy" track — it can be called one of the first Post-Soviet experience in the "death industrial" genre... Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind...

Six Dead Bulgarians -- "It’s Not Fearful In The Bunker" -- 2 CD -- €12
1996/2017 COD noizes, SHUM104
Industrial / Experimental / Old School. "It's Not Fearful In The Bunker". When listening to this album, it seems that it was recorded directly in the production shops of the dying Soviet colossus or in the crematoriums smelling of stinking stench and soot. Hysterical laughter and pain, screaming and whispering against the background of a paranoid collage of mechanical percussion, prehistoric noise, ringing of music boxes, children's rhymes, sirens of civil defense, samples from movies and grave ambient. Its sound is like a revived carnivorous wall newspaper that devours your mind. The most satirical and wicked work of the Bulgarians. If the Post-Soviet industrial has its own business card, it is "It's Not Fearful In The Bunker"... Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind...

Six Dead Bulgarians -- "Reincarnation / 9211-7140" -- CD -- €12
1996/2017 COD noizes, SHUM105
Industrial / Experimental / Old School. "Reincarnation" is a document of the psychedelic avant-garde, which does not even want to be called an "industrial" with its ideological and sound cliches. On this record the sound of the early Bulgarians reaches its maximum depth, without resorting to post-modern sound collages and Soviet industrial aesthetics. As the name suggests, this record is dedicated to the eternal processes of decay and revival, decomposition, conceiving and birth. And this should be understood in a much more spiritual sense, rather than in the physical. And that's why this album can be considered as an alchemical experience in the field of sound. It is pointless to describe the music itself, all this enumeration of rhythmic structures and ambient landscapes will not give any idea of this work, which by the way includes one of the most famous Bulgarian composition "My Fire Shines In The Fog". This must be listened and lived. Our edition also includes two tracks from the single "9211-7140" and three rare extra tracks... Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind...

Venomous Rig -- "VSTrange" -- CD-R -- €7
2015 Kill Ego, KLLG016
Industrial / Dark Ambient / Experimental. The Venomous Rig territory is a representation of the past, present and future: about where our civilization came from, where has it came to, and where it moves to (or, more precisely, does NOT move?), all performed as streams of consciousness. The fundamental influence on these flows, as an element of the present, is made by industrial aesthetics and man-made environment. They fascinate just like the first step of a child - the first real step of a young civilization in understanding and reclamation of the surrounding reality. They frighten at the same time - because it is the time to move on and set forth another leg for the next step, otherwise the child will fall by inertia, the civilization will destroy itself, leaving only a mutilated planet for the future. Believing that pure intuition is more strong and truthful than logical thinking, making the conceptual works, but being against constructing and writing compositions, here we have a one-time recording of the streams of consciousness without further layering and editing. After all, sometimes the less you think about something, the more you understand it ... Are these the moments when the work of the mind suddenly reaches a new, higher level? [label info]

Sal Solaris / Zero View -- "Villes Radieuses" -- CS -- €21
2018 NEN Records, NEN19, (ltd. 33)
Villes Radieuses' is collaborative effort by Ivan Napreenko & Konstantin Mezer (Sal Solaris) and Jim Mroz (Zero View), also known by project Lussuria. The release is dedicated to some architectural projects that are normally called utopian; and most of them, actually, offer to put aside the conventional view of the world, to tear off the land surface, to fly. However, today the notion “utopian” is often used to denote fancy ideas that have, seemingly, nothing to do with the reality: Le Corbusier’s ideal city, to which the album’s name refers to, was never constructed. This way, the notion goes beyond the field of modern thought and politics, which was not true for the authors of the projects at the moment of their creation. In truth, even today the projects tell us something about problems of the world around us... The musical interpretation of the utopian architecture presented by the album is of dual nature... On the one hand, the experimental electronics by Sal Solaris illustrates the projects of the 20th century. The major track, commemorating the Association of New Architects, markedly reproduces the creative pathos of the townplanning avant-garde from the 1920s. “Through the pole??” sounds like a fragment of negotiations with dwellers of the flying city (in the spirit of Viktor Kalmykov’s project “Saturny” (1930) – his remark on the draft was used for the title); their faraway mode of living turns out to be an enigma for us, the Earth-dwellers. The concluding track is an ironical commentary to the consequences of an (capitalist) airship of “production and consumption of events” landing in some, perhaps, communist town, where sets an atmosphere of some truly weird holiday... The dark ambient by Zero View points out the other side of utopian architecture: it reminds us of the fact that the word “utopian” is gravitating towards the synonyms of the word “impossible”. His soundscapes are like a spyglass which an observer uses the wrong lens forward. In this inverted perspective great hopes are equalized to the half-faded fantasies of the past; this view appears to be located somewhere beyond the time limits and any human endeavors will appear utopian from it...It's worth mention that both sides, Sal Solaris and Zero View, shared sound material then deliberately manipulated it to ensure maximum collaborative effect... Three-panel full color inlay. Tape in a regular box is inserted into a large black carton cradle. Four color postcards and a two-sided poster with an extensive art-history commentary on it (Russian and English). 33 hand-numbered copies. [label info]

Especially distinguished is the track "New Boots" (the absurdity of names is a firm feature of Bulgarians, however, emphasizing their relationship with the Russian literary avant-garde of the Silver Age), which creates a landscape of certain prenatal State where all is equal: the absolute knowledge, and the absolute fear, and the inhuman peace. As for the "Allergy" track — it can be called one of the first Post-Soviet experience in the "death industrial" genre... Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind... The first and only official edition of the legendary records. [label info]

Six Dead Bulgarians -- "It’s Not Fearful In The Bunker" -- CS -- €9
1996/2017 COD noizes, SHUM104MC
Industrial / Experimental / Old School. "It's Not Fearful In The Bunker". When listening to this album, it seems that it was recorded directly in the production shops of the dying Soviet colossus or in the crematoriums smelling of stinking stench and soot. Hysterical laughter and pain, screaming and whispering against the background of a paranoid collage of mechanical percussion, prehistoric noise, ringing of music boxes, children's rhymes, sirens of civil defense, samples from movies and grave ambient. Its sound is like a revived carnivorous wall newspaper that devours your mind. The most satirical and wicked work of the Bulgarians. If the Post-Soviet industrial has its own business card, it is "It's Not Fearful In The Bunker"... Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind...

Six Dead Bulgarians -- "Reincarnation / 9211-7140" -- CS -- €9
1996/2017 COD noizes, SHUM105MC
Industrial / Experimental / Old School. "Reincarnation" is a document of the psychedelic avant-garde, which does not even want to be called an "industrial" with its ideological and sound cliches. On this record the sound of the early Bulgarians reaches its maximum depth, without resorting to post-modern sound collages and Soviet industrial aesthetics. As the name suggests, this record is dedicated to the eternal processes of decay and revival, decomposition, conceiving and birth. And this should be understood in a much more spiritual sense, rather than in the physical. And that's why this album can be considered as an alchemical experience in the field of sound. It is pointless to describe the music itself, all this enumeration of rhythmic structures and ambient landscapes will not give any idea of this work, which by the way includes one of the most famous Bulgarian composition "My Fire Shines In The Fog". This must be listened and lived. Our edition also includes two tracks from the single "9211-7140" and three rare extra tracks... Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind...

Zelje -- "s/t" -- CS -- €7
2016 Pearly Snowdrift, PS02
Ambient / Experimental. The album by the St. Petersburg-based artist Zelje consists of 2 parts recorded in August 2014 and November 2015 and deals with the themes of "fire of live" and "coldness of death" which are opposites only at first glance. The fire of inner struggle, disagreement, burning hot opposition to the surrounding world which one can feel in the first part turn into cold acceptance of the meaningness of the struggle: decal and dying are the inevitable part of the cyclic movement. The realization of the all-embracing beauty of any manifestations of the flow of power allows to plunge into its nature. Both parts of the album were recorded in 2-3 days during the improvised sessions in the musician's home studio... White cassettes with stickers, double-sided full-coloured cover + double-sided insert with the author's paintings. Limited edition. [label info]

The beginning of a cycle is equal to its end... Yellow tapes with transparent labels, two-sided full-color cover. Limited edition. [label info]

V/A -- "Myth Machine" -- CS -- €13
2018 NEN Records, NEN103, (ltd. 72)
The title 'Myth Machine' demonstrates all the richness of meanings that gives us words connected by genitive case: if you want, read it 'The Mythical Machine', or "The Machine Creating Myths". Ambiguity here plays into our hands. This epic compilation by NEN Records is dedicated to myths as a ways of giving meaning to the suffocating meaningless reality. It is devoted to narratives, coherent or broken, that each of contributors create by their own lives. Perhaps, therefore, the release turned out to be so poly-stylistic, and there is nothing to be surprised at. And of course, behind all these narratives, lurks the shadow of a huge and hardly perceived Machine, which severely cuts off the plot lines and - arbitrarily, it would seem, draws new ones. Note: All tracks on the compilation are created on electronic machines of varying complexity, each of which, for sure, has a hidden desire to tell its own machine myth (and you can even distinguish it). Θ16, PLAGGONA, PLOVDIV, MICK LARKIN, THE HORRORIST, REGULAAR, CELLDOD, BLIND ASSAULT, MYRRMAN, UNCONSCIOUS, YUNCLAS, HEINALI. Cardboard case. Two-sided black and white and yellow inlay sleeve. 72 hand-numbered copies. Two 'Eyes' stickers inside. Comes with three hand-drawn "Masks" pins. [label info]

7PM Ritual -- ":08:16:02:" -- CD -- €10
2015 Lichterklang, LK029, (ltd. 300)
7pm Ritual is the new project of the founding Stein members Norbert Strahl, Nic Sender and Oliver Sittig who reunited for spontaneous jam-session after a couple of years, which finally resulted in “:08:16:02”. The album is a dedicated and conceptional piece of work, based on one of the biggest tragedies of the past millennium. Musicalwise 7pm Rituals debut is the perfect blend of songs, influenced by Neofolk and orchestral, cinematic sounds bands that sometimes remind of early recordings of In The Nursery, but with a more folky edge. The songwriting as well as the sound quality are outstanding and there’s no doubt that 7pm Ritual and their musical diversity will leave a deep impact throughout the different genres mentioned before.

Surging noise and multi-layered sounds colliding and declining, disappearing only to be regenerated and repeated. There also appears to be an emotional element amongst the hardcore noise, with the use of impressive drone and bass - slowing expanding and taking advantage of the long scale of the pieces. Recorded 2015. Comes in a specially printed foldout sleeve with spot-varnished print and insert. [Cold Spring]

Luftwaffe -- "Trephanus Uhr" -- CD -- €10
2004/2013 Lichterklang, LK014
Reissue of Luftwaffe's 2004 album, featuring Boyd Rice (NON), Douglas P. (Death In June), and Richard Leviathan (Ostara). "Luftwaffe create effective industrial atmospheres through swathes of harsh electronic noise interspersed with samples, dialogue and declamatory lyrics. The constant martial rhythms and occasional orchestral effects ensure easy comparisons with NON's epochal live recording "In The Shadow of the Sword". Several tracks adopt a harsher outlook... A folk based approach incorporates gentle flute but the vocals remain rooted in a masculine and stern manner. Ostara's Richard Leviathan delivers esotericism over acoustic guitar and spirited trumpet score... Douglas P.'s refined tones are set against a backdrop of acoustic guitars and kettle drums recalling early Death In June. Both tracks are free of the industrial posturing proving the age old adage: less is more" (Compulsion). Digipak.

Stronger than ever before and seven years after their last album, WEIHAN return with their impressing new album "Blo?slitinn a Steininum". While the previous album of the belgium project were characterized by the divergency between Neofolk and martial based influences, Jurgen and Miguel used the long period to strengthen their music on a more sophisticated and variable version of Martial Industrial that is conceptionally founded in norsk sagas and sacrifial pagan rites. The title of the album therefore might also be translated as "The colour of blood on stone". "Blo?slitinn a Steininum" emphasizes WEIHANS outstanding position in that particular genre. The album was mastered by Axel Frank at the "Blue Lounge Studio" in Berlin. [press-release]
