Noise/Drone/Experimental Vinyl

"First vinyl fullength from Mattias Gustafsson aka Altar Of Flies. Since the start in 2006, this prolific artist from Mjölby, Sweden, has done releases on Cipher, Husk, Hästen & Korset, Nil By Mouth and 905, just to name a few. Förruttnelsen is the first new release on RTB since the split LP with Sewer Election which was released early 2008. More organic and mostly recorded live to tape, Förruttnelsen shows a side of Altar Of Flies more reminiscent to the sounds of his live shows. This is more minimalistic in it's approach, weaving together tapeloops, field recordings, junk abuse and raw disciplined electronics creating an claustrophobic and bleak soundscape. Everything slowly builds up towards the abrasive 14 minute long title track closer, making this an monumental journey in all it's gloomy glory. Recorded between April and December 2009. 5 tracks, 41 minutes. Mastered by Viktor Ottosson (Ättestupa). Full colour artwork by Daniel Fagerström. 270 copies". - Label Description

"North of the church, only the worst of mankind was buried. Under the dark soil you could find people who had ended their own lives. Murderers. Thieves. Here in the shadow, the poor souls were gathered for their last rest. Begraven Mot Norr, the second album from Ättestupa, is themed around funeral customs and death processions in the past centuries of rural Sweden. The first LP was described as a mix of folk tones, 70's German prog, noise and black metal, and via the Att Korsa Den Flod Som Kommer Dränka Oss Alla tape (Abisko) and 1867 12" (DNT), that mixture was refined. With Begraven Mot Norr, Ättestupa returns with their most accomplished and complex recording so far, a natural progression from Änglamakerskan (their praised contribution to the Utmarken compilation 10"). Opening with an eerie violin over a rushing river, the bleak tone is immediately set. Set to a backbone of monotonous drumming, guitars and organs take the freezing lead in the sinister arrangements. Abrasive electronics intersects with field recordings and a sparse and elegant use of acoustic instruments. The chant-like vocals lure somewhere in the background, working as an instrument on it's own. Often based on scrap metal junk abuse and tape loops, the droning interludes from their recent live sets are incorporated. The overall atmosphere is more melancholic, paving itself through different shades of grey with a calmer and more distinct sound than before. Recorded between summer 2009 and spring 2010. 2 tracks, 35 minutes. Mastered by Viktor Ottosson. Comes with a A1 poster. 521 copies". - Label Description

Mortician meets Carcass style weirdness on nice maroon red see through vinyl. Old School as owt! Recommended.

"Mutant Ape is the insane noise project by Yorkshire, UK resident George Proctor. George runs the Turgid Animal label, which since 2005 has been the go-to place for harsh noise, power electronics and other demented spuzz releasing over 500 CDs, CDRS, cassettes, LPs, 10"s, 7"s etc. He has been releasing Mutant Ape sounds wherever and whenever establishing his classic yet contemporary noise/horror vision of lust and spectacle as one of the premier scum artists of the last decade. Erotic Yorkshire is Mutant Ape at its most corrosive delivering from track to track occult ambience to skin shredding power drug electronics. All bookended by the demented and misogynist rants of Jamie Gillis. Artwork by the fractured mind of Tisbor. Disgust, depression, defilement and demotion are all here for those of you who demand only the best in carnal crud". - Label Description

Restock! Quite possibly my best material to date! This new work is an intense and relentless discharge of cavemen electronics and obsessive noise with dirty male vocal textures in the upper layers. LP comes in a deluxe silver silk screen on black cardboard sleeve limited to 120 hand numbered copies w/insert. Sorry for the high price but hopefully it's worth it...

Fairly bizarre grindcore/noisecore release! Two great bands! Highly recommended! Old school as owt.

All out noise war collaboration LP between BSBC & NAG. Pro-printed LP jackets / 11x11" insert. Cover art by Dominic Black. Edition 400. Highly Recommended!

Dark, clandestine noise from England and Denmark. Artwork by Rasmus Rosengaard. Mastered at Dubplates and Mastering by FST. Silkscreened covers with insert. Limited to 333 copies.

"Another week, another Sloth split! What the hell do I care, they're one of my favourite bands and I've yet to hear anything they've come up with that I don't love. This is ostensibly one track by them (but sounds like it's in three parts?!), bass-heavy and menacing with some bizarre vocals. I played it to a friend recently who said it sounded like Sesame Street gone wrong. A reasonably prescient point methinks. Weluvpot do loads of songs on their side, they sound like Sloth if Sloth had even worse recording equipment and weren't able to play their instruments very well. That's not a criticism, this is some ace fucked-up nonsense! ULTRA lofi noisecore/grind....dunno if it could accurately even be described as that, is just a total mess. Love it, hope to hear a lot more from these guys! 300 copies, 200 on black vinyl with white sleeves, 100 on various colours and various sleeves (most of mine are kinda green/brown/black splatter). Co-release with Shifty and Sludgesicle". - Label Description

"Street Drinkers is the solo moniker of Viktor Ottosson (Ättestupa). Since 2008, he's been laying down his gloomy patterns to some of the weirdest and most intruiging music we've heard in quite a while. Based around repetitive keyboards, tape loops and chanted vocals, Street Drinkers here delivers 4 tracks with a macabre and sombre mindset. Atmospheric and heavy on the melancholia with some underlying gothic tendencies. Regressive, spiteful and just wrong. Crude recordings with a fidelity not far away from the rotten fuss of mothership Ättestupa. Drums on Clouded Sky by Hannes Norrvide from Lust For Youth/Viking Jews. Previous releases out on Goaty, Utmarken, Kosmisk Väg and Sound Holes. Skeppet from Malmö consists of Andreas Malm and Henrik Wallin (both members of long running project Fria Konstellationen, as well as heads in charge of the great Kosmisk Väg imprint). Their well-recieved debut tape from 2008 was followed by a split tape with Gothenburgs own Viking Jews in 2009. Influences are said to be acts like Cluster, Harmonia and La Düsseldorf, and here they are continuing the relaxed path taken on the split tape with an even more developed and refined sound. A long and mesmerizing trip into the sun, and a truly beautiful take on kraut/kosmische music. The perfect soundtrack for late summer nights. 2 tracks. Total playtime of 40 minutes. Artwork by Dan Johansson (Street Drinkers cover/insert) and Henrik Wallin (Skeppet cover/insert). 275 copies". - Label Description
