"Reissue of the long-sold out demo tape that Funeral Folk put out in an edition of 66 copies. These guys are getting a real name for themselves in the metal underground and this is a statement of intent that justifies that! This is some of the most filthy, disgusting stuff I've ever heard; one long track that goes from all-out black metal fuzz to passages of total low-end DOOM to seriously disturbed ambient passages, all sounding like it was recorded on somebody's walkman in a dungeon somewhere. 20-odd minutes of totally harrowing bleakness. True Belgian nihilism!! Great three-panel foldout silver-on-black screenprinting by Tetedemort from France, all in a thick PVC sleeve. Grim artwork by the late great Aubrey Beardsley. 500 copies". - Label Description

"The eponymous debut from Portland, Oregon's BLACK ELK is a raging destructo rock eruption, heavy, catchy, and flattening. This ten song album contains a creeped out conglom of carnivorous charred hardcore punk, the sludgy power of primo Pacific Northwest tarpit rawk (think KARP, MELVINS, and early SOUNDGARDEN as reference points), twitchy Midwestern noise rage somewhere between Am Rep Records (circa-1991) and a more rabid DIE KREUZEN, and a goatheaded psychedelic backwoods black mass/dance party risen to a freakin' fever pitch. Total crush. Produced by Mike Lastra at Smegma Studios (EARTH, THRONES, JACKIE O MOTHERFUCKER)". - Label Description

"Italian noise lovers Audio Dissection are having a gay old time with Texas based harsh noiser Black Leather Jesus (aka Richard Ramirez & friends) via "Prove To Me That You're More Than Meat". Chock full of, "brutal sonic violence" so remember your shoulder pads and helmets now. Contains artwork of an extreme sexual nature - don't buy if you're easily offended. Limited edition of just 300 copies - act fast!" - Cold Spring (http://www.coldspring.co.uk/mail_order/b.php)

"New full-lenght studio album contains 10 tracks and 35minutes of extremely dirty, frantic and raw black metal with old school influences and trashing vibes. This material is faster than their "Passion of the Devil" mini-album, just like older stuff". - Label Description

"Breath of Pestilence in co-operation with Hammer of Hate unleashes the new strike from Bloodhammer. 5 new tracks of crushing Black Metal!!! Surely the best Bloodhammer material yet!" - Label Description

10 out-of-print singles sides (1997-2006) and 4 unreleased scorching live versions of "Danny", "Urge", "Tired & Bloody" and "Stacy" (a rare document considering the band has only played live a mere handful of times!) all rolled onto one brutal CD. 70 minutes of filthy, jazzy, garage-punk sludge. Not for the faint of heart....

"Brethren's debut full-length CD finally released after delays and label changes. Freak Animal presents this release which offers ten original power electronics assaults with violent shouted vocals, leaving no doubt in the listener's mind that Brethren means every word. Each structured track on this American power electronics release takes on subjects deemed controversial and/or politically incorrect by today's standards. Brethren's outspoken political views are perfectly represented by the brutal electronics, thought provoking lyrics and provocative images. Comes in standard jewel case with professionally printed 12-page booklet with images and all lyrics. (Note: Does not include any symbols that could be illegal in central Europe, so it's safe to order.)" - Label Description

"Collaborative recordings from two well known and prolific artists from different parts of the world. Recorded in Lasse’s studio in early 2006 while Giffoni was on tour in those parts of the world. Given the players I don’t think the content should be a huge secret. 500 copies with graphic work from Lasse. Different style sleeve for this release with the front folding out from the middle much like shutters on a window to reveal the disc attached inside on a clear plastic hub". - Label Description

"Cloama and Blutleuchte rise anew From Wasteland Mausoleums with desolate, cryptic and evocative soundscapes of the world beyond perception. Further removed from the noise and power electronics beginnings of both projects, here one is to find experiments in candlelit rituals, analogicism inspired by early German electronic pioneers, voices and hauntings and crushing guitar. Melodies and raw noise interlap as the twin phases of existence or the primal creations of deities both wrathful and dreaming. The CD is comprised of 12 tracks with a total duration of almost an hour of parapsychological exploits. Comes in a jewelcase with an 8-page UV coated booklet containing lyrics and exclusive art" - Label Description

"Crystalline drones and sacred incantation. Nectar procured from golden fruit. Shimmering resonance channeled through dream. A most anticipated return to form for Menche. Breathtaking purity of sound. Wolf's Milk is a triumph of immense magnitude". - Label Description

"A re-issue CD of quite possibly the most crumbled and crushed out harsh noise release to date. Originally released in Italy by Old Europa Café in 1995, "Low-Fi Power Carnage" was an excellent example of imported noise from the Italian harsh noise master Gabriele Giuliani. At a time when the cassette format was king and Japanese noise was sometimes too high range and polished causing Americanoise to crush the genre with acts such as Skin Crime and Macronympha, Dead Body Love was also around to deliver the most crusted and rumbling of the contemporary harsh noise acts. "Low-Fi Power Carnage" is an amazing document of raw and crunched harsh noise range and focus as it pummels over its four different tracks; each their own monster in strategy and manipulation. Giuliani has an uncanny ability to investigate movement within the rock bed of sound, sometimes picking apart the tones and sources with deconstruction techniques that range from ‘static drone’ to the brutal and abrasive. Thus, this release has something for every harsh head as it covers numerous areas of violence, abstraction, and even an occasional heavy driving, throbbing force that brings to mind early ‘Industrial’ (i.e. Broken Flag). I am honoured to be able to help with this re-issue as I can safely say it is my favourite noise release of all time and was the defining release that made me finally decide to make harsh noise the primary focus of my life. Painstakingly re-mastered to CD to duplicate the original cassette experience right down to the tension-filled extended breaks between the tracks. To celebrate this release, each CD comes with an 11" x 17" glossy offset printed and folded DEAD BODY LOVE poster to hang on your wall". - Sam McKinlay

Finnish Doom/Grindcore.

Limited to 100 copies. Real CD from this noise master.

Re-issue of the Smell The Stench cassette, with an extra track. Edition of 500 copies.

"Furnace is an unlikely yet strangely natural union of no Xivic, renowned sculptor of dark electro-acoustic soundscapes, and Gelsomina, Finland's most prolific harsh noise artist. The title track, also the main piece on the album, is a live collaboration recorded in late 2006, a grand opus of psychedelic noise with a peculiar 'kraut' flavour! In addition to this, both artists created exclusive tracks on their own to complete the album. In total, Furnace is a 44-minute blast of fire, brimstone and hazardous electric currents, and thus a fine completion of Some Place Else's tenth year of activity". - Label Description

"live in person collaboration of mid ranged feedback hell laden with raw human drones of cosmic existential turbulence from from matthew bower (legend of total, skullflower, ramleh etc) marcia bassett (double leopards, zaimph, ghq etc.) and dominick fernow (vegas martyrs, nihilist assault group, ash pool, etc)". Label Description

Groove-Laden Doom.

Summer 2007 release from John Hegre and Lasse Marhaug. Artwork by Dennis Tyfus.

"The 4th album from Kansan doom-prog / dirge juggernauts JUMBO'S KILLCRANE. Leaner, darker, and far more crushing than their previous releases, The Slow Decay finds the Killcrane in an altogether apocalyptic frame of mind, unleashing subsonic frequencies that resonate with the decay of ages. Their monstrous riffs are more angular than ever, but this new manifesto also delivers soaring, stygian melodies that earlier releases only hinted at. Haunting and heartbreakingly heavy, the trio wind together barbed-wire hooks that snarl themselves around snail's pace rhythms and tarpit riffs". - Label Description

Finnish Metal.

"Hailing from the land of the rising snow, Lasse Marhaug has become one of the most commanding and respected sound artists in Norway. As a musician and composer he has contributed to cd, vinyl and cassette releases for labels throughout Europe, Asia and America. Aside from solo work, Marhaug contributes to several ensembles including Nash Kontroll (iDEAL) and a large Jazkamer unit (Smalltown Supernoise) with black metal legends Enslaved. Having collaborated with artists from varying fields of musik (Sunn O))), Aaron Dilloway and Maja Ratkje) Marhaug's reach extends into musik for theatre, installations and video. A salvo to Ennio Morricone, Spaghetti Western Rainbow stands testament to the Italian composer's enduring influence. Morricone collaborator Sergio Leone established the spaghetti western genre in 1964 with A Fistful of Dollars. The director used Morricone again to score the remaining two films in his three-part account of greed and violence (For a Few Dollars More and The Good, The Bad and the Ugly.) Leone's critics were struck by his brutal depiction of an unromantic West, but his singular style, camera angles and extension of time made his work different from any western that had come before. Lasse Marhaug exacts Leone's slow, beautiful power and love for expanse with shades of Morricone's subtle witchery to create what will inevitably be considered one of his masterworks. Harsh, dry passages blend with drifting soundscapes, bird calls and an asseverate guitar figure that promotes an invigorating context for film musik. Issued on Utech Records <Actinic:Variable Name = '001'/> as a micro pressing of 100 cdr copies in the winter of 2004. Lasse Marhuag first performed this music as an improvised laptop work for Chicago radio station WNUR. This edition finds the original piece remastered and divided into two tracks that open and close the album. Two unreleased tracks have been added to cpmplete the disk. Artwork inspired by the film The Great Silence". - Label Description

"At last!!! We've had this one brewing for months now and it's well worth the wait! What started off as a small run of CDrs has become At War's most ambitious release to date, and I'm totally fucking chuffed by it!!! This collection comprises demos, live stuff, rarities and rehersals from the UK's most consistantly interesting, forward-thinking, and just plain fucking great band of the last decade. Starting off from now and moving backwards through time to the early bedroom demo days, this CD shows Marzuraan's evolution from simplistic droning minimalism of the two bass lineup to the full-on rock beast of today. The album kicks off with a cover of Loop's "Afterglow", putting it through the post-Ginn blender and coming out with something great. The other cover here is a raging, lo-fi recording of Rollins Band's "Turned Inside Out", performed at the inaugral Glasgow Implodes fest a few years ago. There's a fierce, noise-ridden performance of "Nice Wang" that I think I recorded on Julian Cope's last tour (crowd (un)reaction the MZ was hilarious), the epic dark drone rock of GMT recorded at the Lord Clyde in Byker, and the aptly-named Kraut-esque monotone riff of "Earth 3" from the confusing Manbyrd cassette. All in all, Marzuraan do it better than anyone else going right now; be it bleak minimal droning walls of sound, controlled experiments into feedback or baws-out "post" rock, without the scene points. They sound like the late, twisted Flag stuff on a mid-period Voivod album, with Swervedriver on in the background. Played by Helios Creed. Or maybe I just talked a load of bollocks, fuck knows! Buy this record, dickhead. Totally great packaging by the guys at Thumbprint Press (HUGE thanks to WT for all the effort put into this, and Pete for artistic vision!); three-panel chipboard sleeve, double-sided print, with stark black letterpress and clear varnish. You may know these guys' work from the Sunn live album or one of the many Bastard Noise family releases, but this tops the lot in my opinion! Top banana". - Label Description

A classic recording which needs no introduction. The moral of this work: The past punishment is the inevitable blindness of the present.

"Following a wave of recent reissues and re-recorded versions of older CD-R titles, Desire In Uneasiness is an album of all new material from the acclaimed Canadian dreamsludge weavers Nadja. Five colossal jams of eternally-fuzzy, ethereal dirge that are powered by the interlocking bass guitars of Leah Buckareff and Aidan Baker, who set loose a wave of monstrous grinding bass riffs amidst a fog of beautiful, swirling electronic effects. Desire also marks the first Nadja album to feature a live drummer in place of the drum machine programming that has driven the band's previous recordings, and the difference in the band's sound is apparent from the first crushing beats of album opener 'Disambiguation'. The organic drumming here takes Nadja's music into new realms of spacious jazzy exploration, dubby rhythms and cavernous psychedelia, while also delivering some of the band's most grooving, crushing hypno-bliss yet. Desire also stands out from the rest of the Nadja catalog for it's bizarre artwork that Aidan commisioned from his friend The Reverend Aitor. Aitor's bright, bold lines and textured magic marker artwork gives the gatefold jacket we've presented this disc in the look of a twisted children's book on acid, with weird images of chickens, trees growing through chairs, and more. The package is a sturdy 4-panel gatefold jacket printed by Stoughton, and it looks killer". - Label Description

"Editado paralelamente en CD por Psychedoomelic, Austria". - Label Description

"Desire for a Holy War is mayhem piled on top of mayhem piled on top of squalls of caustic feedback. Furies spitting oaths of shrouded vengeance from ancient tongues. Plague riders dealing death on mounts of venomous ether, hooves pounding the wild earth. Matthew Bower may have reached a watershed with last year's Abyssic Lowland Hiss (Heavy Blossom) but it is with Desire that he has come to conquer. Never has Skullflower sounded so severe or remorseless". - Label Description

"A reissue of Skullflower's acclaimed 1992 album IIIrd Gatekeeper, featuring the lineup of Matthew Bower (guitar), Stuart Dennison (drums and vocals), and Anthony DiFranco (bass). IIIrd Gatekeeper is an immensely heavy album that was originally released on HeadDirt, the label run by Justin Broadrick of Godflesh/Jesu/Final fame back in the early 90's, and featured Skullflower at their heaviest, grinding out slow, sludgy riffs and crushing, almost industrial rhythms amid a tempest of psychedelic guitar noise and dense sheets of feedback - easily the most crushing, rock-based music that Skullflower ever produced. IIIrd Gatekeeper served up a skulldozing dose of post-industrial dirge rock that sat comfortably next to Godflesh, Swans, and Ramleh in terms of dark, druggy, hypnotic lumbering heaviness. This is one of our favorite albums ever at Crucial Blast, and we are presenting this reissue with new liner notes, a new package design that retains all of the original artwork from the HeadDirt release, and a remastering job courtesy of Scott Hull at Visceral Sound.". - Label Description

"The new full length from the legendary UK free/drone/psych outfit Skullflower, featuring some of the most searing, synapse scorching droneworks that Matthew Bower (the man behind Skullflower, as well as Sunroof!, Total, and The Hototogisu) has unleashed to date, in our humble opinion. Orange Canyon Mind is the follow up to 2002's awesome Exquisite Fucking Boredom (Tumult Records), and continues that albums utter mutation of stoned out riffs pulled taffy-like into eternity/oblivion and star-rupturing blasts of sonic white light. Over the 8 tracks/60 minute running time, Bower and cohorts build massive horizontal drones and melodic supernovas. Superb, beautiful, brain melting stuff". - Label Description

"Tribulation. The new emission from the UK trance-noise legends SKULLFLOWER. A black-void beaming of utterly destroyed drone rock and crushing amplifier obliteration that rains down black ash and punishing blasts of feedback skree on the listener. A dynamic, bleary-eyed meditation. An avalanche of powerdrone that threatens to take your cranium apart and transport your grey matter into filthy new dimensions infested with melodic razor cuts and submerged mantras. A triumphant eruption of apocalyptic meta-metal and radioactive raga swarms, guaranteed to loosen eardrums. This album is one of the heaviest, harshest slabs of guitar armageddon from Matt Bower since the glory days of Total, and bridges the void between the krautrock/celestial free drone influence of the last few Skullflower albums, and the blackened molten death of his Mirag material". - Label Description

"the fall of nature is a epic, grandiose drone piece almost one hour of pure electronics that echoes the masters of the form. the album grows in intensity throughout the recording making for an unexpected release. there are many sides of darkness and many ways to express it. the fall of nature is the balance of sound, in a listenable format. the initial feeling is that of an almost holy, heavenly sound, the skies opening in tribute to the nature which is falling. yet fans of classic sj will be plenty pleased at the psychotically manic conclusion that will not disappoint any fans of pe terror. this music takes aim at several nerve centers at once. this is not just noise, drone or pe but something new that mixes various elements of each together for the first time. co release with groundfault recordings". - Label Description

"ground fault recordings and hospital productions would like to announce the release of "this is the truth", the first sutcliffe jugend studio album in eight years. "this is the truth" quite possibly stands as one of the most original and perfectly balanced noise compositions of the last 10 years. it references and uses classic sutcliffe jugend of old while bringing in an entirely unique and fresh element one does not hear in noise. this album is a brilliant blend of foreboding tension, and anxiety while using the most lively, disturbing, and textural elements of noise. all of which are brought together with the phenomenal detail and balance of an accomplished electronic composer. songs that you think will explode leave you hanging with tension, while others erupt with violence out of nowhere. it's an absolutely brilliant album that was worth the wait". - Label Description

Recorded Oslo/Helsinki 2006. No overdub, no midi synth. Edition of 500.

"The fourth album from TOTIMOSHI. Slabs of crushing metered riffing and joyously ecstatic sludge ooze from the band's instruments over sunbaked vocal harmonies and flourishes of pure pop melodicism and bursts of old-school heavy metal energy. These songs wind through shadows of dusty blues and western music, riff-tastic instrumental rave-ups, squalls of immolating guitar noise, and smoldering post-punk dynamics clad in serious heaviness. TOTIMOSHI's distinctively elephantine rock grips the listener in the power of the big riff and saw-toothed hooks as it reconciles MELVINS/HIGH ON FIRE/KARP crush with pop and psychedelia, bolstered by powerful production courtesy of HELMET's Page Hamilton". - Label Description

"After handful of releases on other labels, Uncreation’s Dawn returns under wings of Northern Heritage Records. This new album also marks new milestone in Finnish Black Metal, delivering original yet gimmick free total Black Metal unlike anyone else. Excellent riffs and compositions, anything from crushing old school underground metal into obscure haunting melodies and harmonies. Unusual vocal performance and cold studio production finish the future classic. Playingtime c. 1 hour, regular jewelcase packaging and booklet including all lyrics". - Label Description

"Marcia Bassett (Double Leopards, Hototogisu) rears Zaimph's vile head once again on La Nuit Electrique. A raspy, delicate instrumental passage begins like a crippled music box. Elegant and soporose. Blackened guitar and amplification apprise the rest. Acrid feedback hangs in the air and vocal modulations clot inside dark rivers of current. The night electric. Edition of only 500!" - Label Description

New collection of long out-of-print demos from the French master of bedroom black metal, ZBT! This is totally raw stuff, utterly devoid of production values and often, song structure. This disc comprises some of ZBT's more considered, "musical" demos, from the repetitive dirge of "Primitive Era", the unrestrained wail and incoherance of "Apocalypse" to the thrash-esque precise riffing of "El Borak". While this is often a difficult listen, the riffs are fucking great - opener "In Your Grave" is total Vulcano/Sarcofago-style South American-influenced filth - and the underground attitude and amateurish sound contributes to the true black metal atmosphere that so may lack these days. ZBT is obviously influenced by Les Legiones Noires, with jarring tremello guitar, off-kilter production and is as mysterious and just plain weird as those bands were. For fans of bedroom BM like Striborg or cult LLN such as Mutiilation, Belketre etc. Classic B&W art in tribute to the old masters! This is a full CD, NOT CDr.

"breathing problem productions presents a 10 song pro cd from austin's own dilion tulk. recordings presented were specifically selected by the artist from various recordings. these recordings have been expertly REMASTERED by thomas garrison and sound amazing. expect carefully constructed layered harsh noise with spots of ambient waves in between. anxiety, obsession and hatred etc". - Label Description

This two CD-R set contains the rejected Filthy LP on one CD-R and a selection of LP related rough mixes, ideas and what not on t'other. CD-Rs packaged in nice two-way colour digipak.

Lee Stokoe (Culver) and George Proctor (Mutant Ape). This comes across very much as a great sum of parts from this pair: vaccuous tunnels of stasis and repetitive crumbling walls of horrific noise assault. It all sounds a bit like the beginning of Terminator II, y'know, when the big tank things are crushing the MOUNTAINS OF SKULLS. To quote Donald Tardy of Obituary: heavier than a bag of donkey's balls. Completely at odds with the holocaustal music contained within, this is packaged in sickeningly garish covers drawn by Tisbor in my kitchen as the cabinet collapsed on top of me. Bright yellow vellum backs and full colour Girls Aloud tribute CDrs! 100 copies" - Label Desc.

New drone synth doom split from UK's Karst and Canada's Wapstan. Grave chamber music vs. French quater sleazy synth.

"Four established sound artists display their different takes on one of the seminal attractions to the harsh noise medium - texture. Through widely varying techniques; AARON DILLOWAY, MIKE SHIFLET, HUM OF THE DRUID, and MANPLUG (side project of Richard Ramirez) each display an expectedly astounding grasp of the very rough edges that harsh noise can promote. An amazing document of talent and approach. (100 ed. pro-CDr with generic LSHN hand stamped/#'d card covers in ziplock style bags and insert)" - Label Description

"The last entry in the trilogy of contemporary artists that includes the first two: 'The Blood of the Forest Turns the Streams Dark Red', and 'The Dense Gravel of the Riverbed'. The journey of the water from the forest streams has now reached the ocean, and what better way to end the series than with three more extremely concentrated harsh noise artists: ICHOROUS, SEAGULL, and REMLAP. Another great voyage into the incredible power, 'dynamics', and seething constructions of recent harsh noise practitioners. (100 ed. pro-CDr with generic LSHN hand stamped/#'d card covers in ziplock style bags and insert)" - Label Description

Genocide themed split from these two UK horror-noise artists. One disc each, nearly 2 hours worth of diverse and hate-filled noise. Limited to 46 copies in double DVD cases!

"New mini-CDr from one of the most interesting and forward-thinking US "noise" bands out right now. The idea behind this release was to utilise no distortion at all, using a lot of unorthodox instrumentation. The results are astounding and quite unlike anything WIO have done in the past. Some great tunes going on here; eight minute-plus "Now You Know" is amazing; low-fi percussives and what sounds like some spanish guitar? Great ritual music nonetheless that comes as a big surprise and my only dissapointment is it's not longer. Another companion piece will be coming soon on At War, cannae wait! 3" CDr comes in a PVC case, wrapped in black material made out of flowers (?!) and a gold band, and a printed insert". - Label Description

Classic UK Noise-Rock 7"!

"Collaboration project between Sewer Election (Sweden), The Rita (Canada) and Mania (US). Filthy harsh noise brutality dedicated to the much beloved actress Edwige Fenech.

Ultra-rare noise 7" from the 90's. Only 200 pressed!

Danish label, Reverse Recordings, just released this great new LP from Jazzkammer/Opec.

Limited to 323 numbered copies, pressed on 180g. vinyl with silkscreened covers.

Ultra-shitty no-fi aggro noise/rock from 1994. Sounds like it's from the same cave as Drunks with guns/Brainbombs but with even less intelligence & more malice. Ugly. Rumour has it that the drummer is Mick Flower from Vibracathedral Orchestra & one of the people hitting a guitar is Darren aka Filthy Turd. Listening to this I'm surprised they're both still alive...

Rammer = thrashing deathly METAL from Canada as will already be known to many. Maniak = Satanik Black Metal from the Philippines rising from the ashes of Korihor (RIP). Red vinyl version.

They're sort of like a no-wave influenced, totally shred-tastic group of three bandits from Vancouver, British Columbia. Limited to 400... Green Vinyl.

From the North of England comes White Medal. The EP features 2 tracks of cold black metal that draw the listener in, building and droning through layer and layer until a crushing peak of near complete wall-of-noise. Vocals lay at the back of WM's music, sounding simultaneously like torturer and tortured. Jubilant yet menacing, the primitivism and organic sound of White Medal is sure to be compared to bands such as Ancestors, Ash Pool and to some extent Bone Awl. The EP is pressed on white vinyl, with a screen-printed white-on-black folder sleeve. As is usual for Grief Foundation vinyl releases, the EP was mastered at Optimum Mastering, Bristol (UK).

"Wowie Zowie! This one is sure to rip your mind apart. [Insert deep abstract description here]. Crazy artwork by the crazy (in the good sense of the word) Belgian artist Jelle Crama.

"Originally released as a very private press on swedish imprint ksp, the material on "the funeral tapes" was just far to emphatic to stay hidden. mattias gustafsson, the whiz behind the altar of flies moniker, spends about a half an hour conjuring up narcotic vibes and sickly tantrums that boil down to some truly eerie sermons. everything from the layers of creep synth, the dense beats, even the sporadic moments of silence between stabs of feedback all manage to sound abnormal and perfect at the same time. the final track plays like a john carpenter tune (think escape from new york, not ghost of mars) with moments where you could imagine carpenter is attempting to teach free jazz to martians". - Label Description
