Manilapede - "Manillapede" CD
"Makes me feel like i've bored a hole into the center of the earth with my teeth!" says one friend close to this Starving Weirdo's alter-ego band. Self described as "Dune Rock" & coming from the deserts of Manila, California; this is a band very influenced by it's surroundings. Slow motion metalic riffs ring throughout the entire 50 minutes of the debut album, laying the founding for waves of rolling synth lines and sporadic clangings echoing in the distance, presumably a shamanic attempt at drums but too lost in a trance to muster any concrete tempo or rhythmn. Album of the year for me, what about you?

Vomir - "L'homme Saturé" LP
Unbelievably heavy stuff, total claustrophobia. Long awaited Vomir LP finally see's the light of day after loads of delays. The tracks were actually re-recorded in the interim so the sound is more dense in keeping with Vomir's later material. If you're looking at this you know the script by now: total depressive nihilistic purity. A landmark in harsh noise wall. 300 copies, silkscreened covers. Black card sleeve with paste on covers in a thick PVC sleeve. Co-release with At War With False Noise

Warrior Breed - "New Yorkshire" C-30
Warrior Breed was my first ever band that me and my cousin started in the garage when I was about 13. "If it's your first band, presumably it sounds shit and shouldn't be released?" Yes, it sounds quite bad and it probably shouldn't be released. Although here it is; purely for the fact that it reminds me of the better days, I think it necassary to get out there so fuck off eh? Comes on white tapes with labels and features full printed youthful lyrics. Same programme both sides.

Forced Entry & Naked Fist - "Demo I" C-10
What is it you Americans call it? Mysterious Guy Harcore? Well I suppose it's that but from the cold peaks of north Derbyshire, Chesvegas (or Chesterfield). Just over 5 minutes of bizarre, fumbling, lo-fi and above all; mysterious: Shit-Punk. Limited and numbered edition of 30 copies with labels and full printed lyrics. Same programme both sides.

Welcome To Turgid Animal Records: UK DivisionWe specialise in all the best/worst Harsh Noise/Power Electronics/Synth/Dark Ambient/Noisecore/Harsh Noise Wall/Shite Punk/Experimental music that the world has to offer. For the latest news about Turgid Animal releases and other goings on, please visit the Turgid Animal UK Division Blog. |
Turgid Animal: Italian DivisionThis label is a collaboration between UK's Mutant Ape and Italy's Fecalove . So half of the stuff is phisically produced in UK, and the other half in Italy. Even if we mail each other everything we prepare for our catalogue, it happens we're carrying different items at the same time. Sometimes we are holding Italian back catalogue stuff and sometimes the Italian Division are carrying UK-produced stuff we don't have anymore. So it's always worth checking out the other side of the same coin. To have a look, click here! |
Legion Blotan RecordsThe people behind Turgid Animal also run a Black Metal label called "Legion Blotan". All Legion Blotan releases are available from this web-site, find the link in the "Legion Blotan Releases" section of this site. More information on the Legion Blotan Blog. |

Horseback - "MILH IHVH" 7" Brand new material from North Carolina, USA's Horseback. "MILH IHVH" consists of two blackened noise mantras, based on the Notaricon "MI IOLH LNV HShMILH". Limited to 250 copies, each copy includes a free Horseback sticker. New full length CD album out soon on Utech! | Sump - "Taken Dead" C-30 (Titan Woods Records) Blackened Punk Stomp from the North of England. | Inseminoid/Jackal - "Live In Newcastle" CD-r Summer time fun recorded at Rocco's Bar in the centre of the toon. Jackal are up first which marks the first live effort of the duo of Mike Vest (Bong, Basillica) and George Proctor (Mutant Ape, Murder Book). Expect pyschedelic loops, heavy bass tones and drawn out synth lines. As if that wasn't enough for poor old Proctor on that night he took to the stage again later on for a headlining Inseminoid set with his good old pal Lee Stokoe (Culver, Skullflower) for a 20 minute set of harsh drone and Girls Aloud worship. One of my favourite gigs I have ever been to, let alone played; nice relaxed atmosphere and great music above a tidy Italian place opposite St. James'. Full color covers in slimline jewel cases. | ||
Sump/Sex Wound - Split C-20 Hails! Split released for a tour last year, reissued. 1 track from now defunct legendary Geordie noise-rock outfit Sex Wound and 3 tracks from blackened "punk" duo, Sump. | Where Is This - "Karaoke Cemetary" 3" CD-r (Bored Bear Recordings) New, now sold out from source, 3" CD-r by Irish newcomer Where Is This? Highly recommended little disc. | Sump - "Demo II: Autumn Blood" C-30 Mutant Ape's George and Barbarians' Gaz play harsh black metal influenced punk. Second demo. | ||
Gammal Sed - "Blót" Tape Pre-White Medal 4-track recordings from George Proctor & Swedish-born heathenographer, Jon Nordstrum. 6 track full demo of bizarre metal percussion sounds with distant mournful guitars and shreiking vocals make Gammal Sed the bizarre schizophrenic alter-ego of White Medal. Limited to 300 copies, first 50 copies on pro-tape with on body print. | Werewolf Jerusalem/Culver - Split C-30 Split cassette from two of the most realiable names in the noise/drone world. Lee Stokoe's Culver project has appeared throughout Turgid Animals catalogue since the beginning and over the past 10 years or so since the project began, he has cemented himself as a master of his craft, scoring big points for England's dodgy music "scene". Much in the same way Richard Ramirez and his Werewolf Jerusalem project has for the USA across the ocean. Culver's side focuses on the slow moving and doom laden drone side of what would these days be called wall noise and Werewolf Jerusalem's side offers up a more ecstatic and brighter sound and take on the HNW genre. Highly recommended! | White Medal - "Agbrigg Beast" Tape (Legion Blotan/Grief Foundation) Second demo release after 2008's "Tread The Earth" cassette (+ patch). 5 tracks of stripped down & raw Black Metal from the North of England recorded in 2009. Lyrics written in Yorkshire dialect. Co-released with Grief Foundation (http://www.grieffoundation.com). Pro printed double-sided 3 panel j-card & on body tape print. Limited to 300 Copies. | ||
