TIERMES "210"
10"
(September 2001)
Second, remastered
edition of the well acclaimed vinyl release originally released

ritual percussion, industrial experimentation and harsh power
ambient, all reaching frightening frequencies at both extremes.
Black vinyl with black labels, coming in beautiful, professionally
silver printed black carton sleeve designed by Stephen O’Malley.

MNEM "For
Delta Relics" CD
(January 2003)
Audacious plunge into the
undercurrent textures of sound overwhelming with archaic and primal
influence yet appearing unprecedented and downright fresh in the
present day. Finest sonic massives emitting complex syntheses
of post industrial, electro-acoustics and harsh ambience; intensive
layers of drones and abrasive loops laying foundation to diverse
analog sound sculptures. Utilising old reel-to-reel recorders
and analog gadgets has given this Finnish duo an almost trademark
sound, now presented on their first full length release with highly
acclaimed vinyl releases already under their belts. Beautiful
full colour sleeve in standard jewel case masterly designed by

REUTOFF "ReuTRauM II"
7"
(September 2003)
Fifth instalment in the seven-part
series presenting various locations in Reutov, the city of origin
for this acclaimed Russian post industrial outfit. Launching off
with the ceaseless hum and rhythm of heavy machinery grinding
onwards as alarm sounds form into hysterical choirs complementing
the slowly proceeding pounding of the machines. As an aftermath,
the second piece bears a calmer approach with pulsating drones
and loops yet retaining a profoundly ominous nature. After proving
themselves to master a wide variety of styles within the post
industrial genre, Reutoff present here a rather traditional
blend of dark ambient industrial - nonetheless remaining at least
equally strong as their previous efforts. Transparent green vinyl
in beautiful full colour sleeve with special lamination finish.
Limited edition
of 500 copies. Available.

OPERATION CLEANSWEEP "Deathcount"
7"
(September 2003)
Extreme hybrid of death industrial
and power electronics from the scarcely active yet already legendary
German sonic terrorists. Four pieces in the finest heavy electronics
tradition; the walls of abrasive sound abuse impenetrable, the
junk metal noises excruciating and the combination of researched
spoken samples and violent vocals adding content in order to the
entire work resulting as subversive and provocative both in terms
of the sound and the agendas behind it. With just two full length
vinyl releases behind them, Operation Cleansweep have managed
to claim themselves a cult status among power electronics aficionados
worldwide and this release will only strengthen their position.
Black vinyl in stylish full colour sleeve.
Limited edition
of 500 copies. Sold out.

I.CORAX "Spectral Metabolism"
CD
(March 2005)
Haunting revelation of sonic
worlds where primal elements and archaic voices flux side by side
with contemporary methods of amplifying the relation between sound
and mind to culmination. Whirling soundscapes of organic and natural
phenomena woven together with the synthetic and manipulated; the
outcome being nothing short of utmost brilliance in the field
of dark ambient and post-industrial. After a few highly acclaimed
limited CDr works, the Finnish duo finally presents their first
CD release, undoubtedly setting out to challenge the stagnance
of the genre they master eminently. Stunning black/white oversized
foldout carton sleeve.
Limited edition of
1000 copies. Available.

SINK "The Process" CD
(April 2008)
There is obscure and then there is Obscure. The
difference is subtle, but when you hear Sink, you know
the limit between obscure and Obscure has been surpassed. The
Process is a beast that drags you below the surface and lets
you gasp for air just enough to keep conscious and experience
the horror. Monumental wall of sound built from demented vibrations,
violent distortion, wailing feedback, reverberating clashes and
almost choral (in)human voices echoing in your mind like amplified
painful memories; and when the wall collapses, the undertow pulls
you deeper into paranoid and disturbing surroundings filled with
static drones, scorching electrical trills and gravely impressive
Obscurity that defies mental health. You may never reach back
to the surface… This is not a sludge record. This is not
a drone record. This is not an experimental record. This is The
Process.
Released in co-operation by Kult of Nihilow and Kaos
Kontrol. CD comes in special fold-out full colour carton sleeve.
Limited edition of 1000 copies. Available.
