Skullflower/White Medal - Split 7"

£5.99

After several delays, Turgid Animal and Legion Blotan Records are proud to announce this new split release from Matthew Bower's long running and evil Skullflower coupled with demented Yorkshire Black Metal one man band, White Medal. These days, both bands straddle the middle ground between experimental music and all out Black Metal assault, but in very different ways. Excellent artwork by Utarm's Sindre Foss Skancke adorns the front of the pro-printed and glued covers. Limited to 400 copies on black vinyl.

Ramleh - "Valediction" CD (Second Layer Records)

£8.99

"After a new ‘rock’ 10-inch EP co-released earlier this year by Black Rose Recordings and an also resurrected Broken Flag, Second Layer Records are extremely proud to present Valediction - the first all new Ramleh album since 1997, and the first new power electronics recordings from the project for 25 years. And yet Valediction is no ordinary “power electronics” record, nor is it anything as straightforward as simply a return to their roots. Valediction is very much an entity of its own – both consolidating and expanding upon everything Ramleh have touched on in the past, but also digging into entirely fresh ground for the band. Valediction is, perhaps, Ramleh’s most bleakly psychedelic creation so far. Comes in a 4-panel gatefold sleeve with 8 page booklet with photos and cut-up lyrics from some of the tracks. Limited to 1000 copies". - Label Description

Turgid Animal: Italian Division

This 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 Records

The 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.

Gnaw Their Tongues - "All The Dread Magnificence Of Perversity" CD (Crucial Blast) £7.99 "Picking up where 2008's An Epiphanic Vomiting Of Blood left off, Gnaw Their Tongues is back with nine new tracks of fearsome blackened orchestral chaos and abstract horror that still sounds like little else out there. On Dread, we're feeling an even heavier bass-assault compared to the other releases, and this is easily the heaviest Gnaw Their Tongues release yet. This monstrous, noxious bottom-end roar that skulks and slithers throughout the album suggests a foul fusion of Abruptum (which is still the closest reference point to Gnaw Their Tongue's black chaos) and Leonard Rosenman's most nightmarish film scores, piled in towering heaps of sadistic noise, warped orchestral strings, degraded samples, shrieking voices, and punishing lurching doom draped in suffocating atrmosphere. Hyper-abstract black metal sound-collage? Wagnerian avant-doom psychosis? That's one way of putting it, but Gnaw Their Tongues is ultimately impossible to pin down, defying simple categorization as this album plunges even deeper into a black pit of total cinematic horror, sexual perversion, and shapeless heaviosity". - Label Description find out more	Werewolf Jerusalem/Culver - Split C-30 £3.00 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! find out more	Culver - "Blue Angel" 3" CD-r (MUZZeDIA VERHEAD) £4.00 One track drone released in a 3" limited edition of 50 copies in 3 fold printed card and vinyl sleeve with full printed black disc. find out more
