"A noise adaptation of the Samuel Beckett play "Rockaby." Heavy drones slowly die as the actor on stage takes their last breath". - Label Description

So naked, so dead. Alo Girl is the solo noise project of Cristiano Renzoni based in Milan, Italy. He also runs the unbelivably dedicated harsh noise record label Urashima. The sounds within this cassette are bound to turn heads and cement Alo Girl's place within the large database of excellent Italian noise projects throughout the years. Highly recommended! Edition of 30.

SSRI presents an audio document of exorcising years of demons and bad medication. Disturbing sound collage of recycled vinyl and tapes. Professionally dubbed tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

"Andrew Quitter is known for his death industrial project Regosphere and the label Dumpsterscore Recordings ( + many other projects as well). Under his own name, he creates some really great drone industrial. 3 carefully composed tracks with synth and organ drones, cymbals/percussions and field recordings". - Label Description

"The Bitters are Aerin Fogel and Ben Cook (Fucked Up, Young Governor). Formed in the east end of Toronto, The Bitters write and record their self-proclaimed Cave Pop from their studio, an artistic cooperative shared with Toronto's most creative musicians. Their debut 12" EP, Wooden Glove, was released last spring on Captured Tracks and sold out shortly after, having been instantly well-received among tough critics and keen listeners alike. The band is a result of Cook and Fogel's prolific efforts and their ability to construct songs ranging from 50's melodies atop dark post-punk instrumentals, to 90's throwback alternative and grunge, which stems from their unique dynamic as friends and partners. Their collaborative work appears live with the help of drummer Jonah Falco (Fucked Up) and a rotation of starry guest bassists. Cassette edition of 250 copies". - Label Description

"This release was inspired by a lot of things. Pleasure and discomfort; emptiness and satisfaction. I won't really categorize this under any sort of noise genre like I do with most of my releases". - Band Description

"Pure alien-funk synthesis recorded live direct to tape. Two pounding doses of primitive and propulsive dance-floor industrial from mysterious sex maniac CLEAR FLUIDS. Gritty rhythm, blown synths, addictive bass grooves and obsessive beat worship make for instant banger classics demanding repeated listens. My neighbor said it reminded him of another time and place long ago, sitting around smoking crack and shooting dice. Uhh... To each his own. Sexually charged and highly rhythmic lurch-pummel, perfect for late night subwoofer abuse, or illicit back room frottage. Translucent purple shell cassette comes looking sharp in a clear Norelco case with stark black and white double-sided xerox death, featuring original creeper artwork by M.H. in a hand-numbered edition of 33. Slamming and smoked out". - Label Description

"FROM THE DANKEST OF BASEMENTS, AN IMPROVISED ALCHEMY OF BLACKENED PUNK AND MERCURIAL NOISE CLATTER. A MANDATORY RELEASE FOR ANYONE INTERESTED IN CONTEMPORARY UK PUNK, RAW BLACK METAL OR NOISE ROCK. INCLUDES A MEMBER OF SUMP". - Label Description

"Dain Daller was part of the Chicago based electro-acoustic group Tiny Music, who have released a few great cassettes of epic machine music on Notice Recordings and Nihilist Records, as well as a few self released full length smokers. These days Dain has been keeping himself busy out in the desert of rural New Mexico, building a house out of recycled automobile tires. He is hunched over in full-on solo mode here, playing remarkable non-music seemingly without any instruments at all. Snippets of crackling vinyl and magnetic tape, bits of radio static, air compressors or whatever else got dragged in from the tool shed. Occasionally rhythmic, but proudly abrasive and atonal, perhaps a hint of garden hose or running motors? Seven sprawling serenades span these sides yielding a skewed sense of plunder-phonic/concrete structures carefully piled and stacked, resulting in a remarkably engaging narrative of squealing shortwave and relentlessly skipping 78’s. Desert dweller creak-howls, from a whisper to a roar. Dank opaque olive-green shell cassette comes beautifully packaged with full color labels and matching double sided full color wrap around U-card featuring photography of the actual Tirehouse shot by D.D. himself, and a stamped b/w photo insert printed on recycled sand colored art paper. Dry heat." - Label Description

"Dysmal Abyss" came into being during the cold Mid-coast winter of 2009 in Belfast, Maine in response to a locally posted flyer calling for like-minded individuals to form a band. Citing influences such as Herzog's "Aguirre", unfocused resentment, early SST records, Raymond Carver, alcoholism, free jazz, and your mom's new boyfriend, "Dysmal Abyss" craft heavy and damaged dark-wave free improvisation throbbers. Featuring 15 year old Maine local Randy Nichols on 5 string bass, along with Justin C. Rhody ((D)(B)(H), Hepatitis (B) Youth, Smut) on guitar/amplifier, and Matthew Himes (Rotten Living, Free Boys, Glue Clinic) on drums/ampliflied chicken feeder. "Born to be born again" collects the crude doom-laden highlights of those inspired and crucial sessions. Feel like feeling bad? Blaring feedback pulses over slow and steady bass groove sludge and relentlessly pounding rhythms. Too noisy for the metal heads, too rockin' for the noise freaks. Anti-guitar misanthropy, ambient bass-tone lurch, and rhythmic screeching cacophany to be listened to at maximum volume. Real time duplicated opaque red shell cassette w/ black and white lacquer-sealed labels comes packaged with a screen-printed art paper J-card and a stapled 16 page art/poetry mini booklet with printed vellum cover in a clear Norelco case. Savage, subversive and totally raw". - Label Description

Entirely improvised and documented directly to cassette in Belfast Maine, February of 2009. Industrial strength pounding sessions, screech crunch chug-chug strangeness and space case drone fuzz/feedback zone outs. Bizarre and aggressive recordings, fueled by mid-afternoon Budweiser and the deep winter doldrums. Blue transparent shell with black print on bright yellow labels comes packaged with matching yellow and black double sided fold out J-card in a clear Norelco case.

"Fear Konstruktor returns to QCS this time collaborating with the legendary Amps For Christ (Henry Barnes of Man Is the Bastard and Bastard Noise) to produce 5 tracks spread over 30 minutes. You can expect passages of crushing heavy drone interspersed with spluttering electronic noise, eerie blankets of feedback laced with groans and murmurs. It has a very distinctly organic feel to it and really quite unlike anything released on QCS before!

"Harsh Noise. Classic and filthy FECALOVE sound. 40 Copies". - Label Description

Pure Filthy Turd Old School Harsh Noise Filth Sex Noise Experiemental Grit Horror Munro!

Norwegian harsh noise at it's finest. Taking a leaf out of the book of the forefathers like Lasse Marhaug, Andreas Brandal (also of Lupus Golem, The Hour of the Wolf and the Twilight Luggage label) crafts two 20 minute sides of expert experimental music which only someone at the top of their game can produce. Highly thought out and perfectly executed harsh noise.

"Another deeply distressing session of abrasive scrape and rumble from Andreas Brandal of Bergen, Norway. What he presents here as "The Beast..." is a powerful addition to an already impressive canon. Boku bad dream vibes. Four tracks of harsh and destroyed sound that keep both feet planted firmly on the extreme side of the line. Obviously a document of deep catharsis, but through pain comes clarity. These recordings capture Flesh Coffin wallowing in a razor sharp sea of blown out junk and gigantic static assaults accompanied by strange creaking friction and strangled synth swan songs. Demon bells and blood gongs warped and bent. Grinding cut-ups flash quickly in front of your eyes as the walls crumble around you and the curtains catch fire. Fleeting mellow tones appear to briefly calm the beast, but the hate inevitably returns, spewing putrid air that will scorch your esophagus. Machete is dragged ferociously, shooting sparks and slicing walls. This album is now available in a limited second printing, featuring the exact same material and cover artwork as the first edition except with different labels this time around and real-time duplicated to a black shell C-30. Comes packaged with hand numbered double sided cardstock J-card in a clear Norelco case. Like a trash compactor". - Label Description

" Your tape is not broken. Crackling voice and reed surrealism, in which the line betwixt live and pre-recorded sound is left blurred and frothing. The Gili Gili Men is an elevated West Coast snake-charmer trio featuring mystery members from such sonic subversives as Million Brazilians, Fake Hospital and Visitor. Dusty lock-groove trance meditations, piled with damaged vocal gargle/shriek, crackling cartridge static and loose-fitting horn vomit. Pretty much perfect. A series of strange improvisational harsh-hypnosis sessions documented directly to plastic plates by Arrington de Dionyso, having been recorded live in real time to his antique lathe-cutting machine in Olympia, Washington. Those fresh-cut grooves were then played back and further abused by that same group of warped freakers, fully jammed upon and sent a skipping. Wailing horn abuse and deep non-jazz wrangling, forever soothes the serpent. These recordings ruminate upon a true-life political protest action in India, in which an angry local snake-charmer set loose a writhing basket of live poisonous snakes inside a government office building during business hours. Real-time duplicated white shell cassette with full color labels comes in a soft poly case featuring heavy paste-on artwork featuring an ancient “entwined serpent” illumination, each individually die cut and hand numbered with a xerox photo insert. Profound confusion tapestries for illicit social upheaval". - Label Description

"Besides being the best newcomer of pure metal junk noise, Hal Hutchinson has a huge backyard. There he has a huge pool filled with scrap metal. Every day he jumps into a metal bathtub and rows it around in his pool of junk metal. His track here is a field recoding of one such trip. SSRI presents another live recording, performed on 11.11.11. Same venue as on the Wince split, slightly different setup and recording quality. You can play a "fun" game of spotting similarities and differences between the sets. No frills live noise. Professionally duplicated tapes". - Label Description

"Just when you thought Hebosagil had found their niche on the debut album "Colossal", the band flips the bird at you and deliver "Ura". Already hinted by their split releases with Viisikko and Two Beats Off, Hebosagil have changed their language to Finnish and smashed their chain of distortion pedals in favour of a more organic, yet perhaps even more violent sound. Seven songs of genre defying groove which can go from slow dirge to filthy punk craze without a need to rescue the band from the swamp of forced versatility - not saying that swamp isn't already filled with useless bands. On "Ura", you can find the driving sludge riffs from previous releases, but also a punky noise rock vibe nodding towards bands like Unsane and Radiopuhelimet. Be prepared to stand on your feet for weeks after hearing "Ura", Hebosagil are about to give you the spanking of a lifetime!" - Label Description

Two new tracks featuring mammoth riffs from HEDORAH and blinding grindcore from MARLEE MATLIN.

"Massive steel vessels reverberate and rumble as splintered reeds puncture ear drums. The Hermetic Trio consists of Bill Doob (of Karamazov Tapes, Weird Mix), Jefferson Zurna (The Alters, 3 Moons), and a mysterious third member known only as “Adam”. Crude and inspired improvisations recorded in an underground cavern, deep beneath Providence, Rhode Island. Huge and abrasive weeping tones ooze out of the dueling reeds in a fierce open ended battle of zurna vs. clarinet, while rhythmic room tone pounding and stomping hammers it all home. Obtuse, and all the better for it. Both of these two side long tracks are equal parts field recording and sporadic composition. Real time duplicated clear shell cassette with black lacquer-sealed labels comes packaged with a full color double sided fold out cardstock J-card featuring a shadowy original photograph by Jefferson himself, shot in the deep subterranean location. Jingling, bleeding freaks and non-jazz freedom for the socially retarded". - Label Description

"46 minutes cassette by electroacustic musician from Madrid J.L. Maire. In "Dogon" he is totally focused on his most electronic side, controlling his modular synthesizers collection. In the side A, pulsations, concentrated towers of sound and electronic glass. Meditative music linked to the work of Eliane Radigue. In the side B a festival of analogical texture that works as nervous reversal of the previous piece. Powerful music capable of moving the air and altering the auditory perception. A serious work and a pride to edit in Afeite Al Perro. Double b/w cover printed in academy paper and toxic tape. 80 copies". - Label Description

"Of the darkest depths of Mid-coast winter. J. Rhody ((D)(B)(H), Hepatitis B Youth, Smut) and M. Himes (Shep and Me, Free Boys, Hackles) join forces here to create these minimal, tortured soundscapes sans macho posturing. These frightening duo improvisations are culled from the same murky sessions as the nauseating cassingle released by the "Green Tape" label earlier this year. The boys manipulate throbbing feedback, violin, voice, electronics, tapes, microphones and strings to create these hypnotizing electro-acoustic compositions. Black shell w/ black lacquer-sealed labels comes packaged with a full color fold out J-card in a black Norelco case. This is ugly stuff". - Label Description

"No computer, no MIDI and no metaljunks! None are needed when K2 let's his electronics loose and serves us frantic, high-energy noise blasts in best tradition of his country. Professionally duplicated tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

"Noisy, pissed-off live performance by Finnish cult outsider "one-man Residents" act known from his recordings on Bad Vugum and Ektro labels. Selection of tracks nicely covers his entire career up to that time. Recorded in December 2006 at the most important and now sadly closed underground music venue in Finland. Professionally duplicated tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

"Really raw and twisted basement lounge vibe on this puppy. Kenneth Gerard Painter Jr. is one third of Lord Bird Golden Cobra, notorius yinzer no-good-nicks and purveyours of high volume sonic cream corn. Here Kenneth shares a singularly skewed vision with his carefully chosen tribe of friends and family. This is like vomiting paint. Anti-everything. Anti-nothing. Deeply strange collection of low-fi daddy/daughter noise, live action feedback squalls, pow-wow drum scuzz sessions, jumbled child speaking unintelligible jibberish and breathy air organ huff and puff scuffers. Presented exactly as requested by the artist. Black shell cassette real time duplicated from the original analog master comes protected in a clear Norelco case with bright green printed labels and xerox insert. Packaged with hand-numbered purple art paper J-card featuring a really weird photo of a microscopic baby seahorse supplied by the artist. 95% guaranteed to induce bewilderment and confusion in all unsuspecting squares". - Label Description

"Leeres Hirn from the United Kingdom produce unmistakable raw downer punk, releasing aggression in the lowest form of lo-fi trash possible. These five short passages are statements in the broadest sense; tinged full of spite, filth, and despair. Dubbed on 50 solid orange tapes and wrapped in an o-card. Not for the faint at heart". - Label Description

"A strange poisonous gas has been leaking steadily into the basement, and it seems to have created a new toxic variety of mold that makes the hippies get violent. Hailing from Minneapolis MN, Lighted lay down aggressive synth squelch and circular diatonic guitar-scuzz over dead solid trap-kit booms and trance inducing zoner fuzz. Grimy biker-rock moves (ala Hawkwind sans fantasy gouda) combine with slamming rhythms, catchy pop hooks and epic kraut-drones to create these four killer tracks of contemporary white knuckle psychedelia. When the smoke clears, the fingerboard is splintered and the power strip is shooting sparks. Their first release "Kingdom" captured live improvisations from some of the earliest documented sessions as a trio, and the small run 2nd cassette offered two nice sides of low-fi impro grit, but this newest gripper contains 25 minutes of hi-fidelity themes honed by their recent handful of live performances. Well sharpened but loose-fitting song structures that drill into your frontal lobe until gradually turning themselves inside out and slow motion exploding into a swirling mass of colored lights and smoke. Heavily psychedelic and totally groovy. Serious jams pro-dubbed to magnetic tape. Imprinted black shell cassette comes packaged with deluxe double-sided three panel J-card featuring iconic hyper-contrast "golden orb" artwork on heavy cardstock, hand numbered in a clear Norelco case. Majestic and burnt". - Label Description

"High end feedback worship and heavy sonic novocain for powerful deep-zonk attack modes. LBGC is the power trio of Nick Painter (Trogpite), Kenneth Painter Jr. (Kimmie Dix & The Doomies) and Michael Timmers (Lord Bird). Each member has continued to dive ever deeper into the aural abyss with their own respective streams of extreme sound, but together they manage to gel into a violently flailing beast, spewing out super harsh, mind-erasing Yinzer noise. If you’ve witnessed the freakers in action, you know what I’m talking about. Recorded in Pittsburgh PA throughout 2006, these killer recordings were originally released in a meager edition of only 15 copies on CDR, and to these in-house ears seem absolutely crucial listening for this current seasonal temperature shift. FTW. I only recently reclaimed my singular silver skuffer (16 outta 15!) from the seething sea of plastic and after seriously blasting it on a full on lousy day, I was completely wiped clean. Aural enema. Upon realizing how essential these recordings actually are, moves were immediately made to put together an archival physical manifestation of this powerful and strange harsh-head document. Word on the street is that these guys were the drunkest band at the recent Voice of the Valley festival, which I guess I wouldn’t dare question. Amplified vomit. That VoV gig was actually the first ever LBGC action outside of Pennsylvania state, after freaking years of strictly-local harsh and deep fried home-team brain boilers. Unapologetically LOUD and incessant tonal purity with straight up bizarre vocal moves and damaged junk abuse. Track three features completely out of hand guest vox from next door neighbor at the time “Phil”. Seriously inebriated. This is in fact, the first ever OFFICIAL Lord Bird Golden Cobra release, with only very small handfuls of tangible evidence ever physically filtering through to us feeble human fungus. All word of mouth, had to be there kinda thing...So here, for the sake of posterity and our savage interest in down-low Yinzer noise history, Lighten Up Sounds is proud to present this official cassette re-issue of the self-titled Lord Bird Golden Cobra album in it’s entirety. Real time duplicated “bling-bling” Gold-foil cassette with custom black and white sticker comes packaged with double sided black and white card-stock J-card featuring all new original “Lord-Bird perched on a Jeep” collage artwork by M. H. recreating the almost-impossible-to-see stencil art from the 2006 release. Also includes an additional bonus track salvaged from the otherwise burnt-out LBGC mother (bird) brain. Alongside the fertile golden egg awaits a plump set of three full color mini-photograph cards, featuring a rare group shot of the delinquents getting all “lappy”, bare-chested basement action shot, and a portrait of neighbor “Phil”. Comes packed up tight in a clear Norelco case. Blows minds and speakers". - Label Description

"Sometimes I feel like rolling around in broken glass. Just to clarify, LORD BIRD is the solo project of Vermont’s Michael Timmers, one third of Yinzer harsh-head trio Lord Bird Golden Cobra, and a significant racket-maker in his own right. This stellar debut cassette presents a damaged pair of long form tracks of super strange and harsh sound, piles of broken garbage and some undeniably bizarre vocal moves. You’ve been warned. Like melting Smurfs with a broken Sade tape in the background. There are sections of this that sound like an actual air horn being set off, other bits recall nothing so much as a painfully claustrophobic voyage through the stinky depths of hopelessly clogged plumbing. Totally recommended! Opaque “Midnight Blue” shell cassette with full color labels comes nicely packaged with matching full color double-sided “seething cosmos” cardstock J-card, along with a mildly offensive fold out “shout list”, cryptic interior lyric sheet & a seperate full color mini-poster featuring all original artwork by Timmers himself, depicting an EPIC holy battle of Aliens vs. Mayans. Hand-numbered edition of 50. The future is now, and it totally sucks". - Label Description

"Mania's side of the split presents different styles of the project in the vein of his recent works. Gestures of disgust and dismissal are segmented into raw metal junk sounds, pure power electronics with vocals and harsh noise violence, all in excellent balance. A masterwork even in Mania's own high standards. SSRI's side is rusty'n'dusty behemoth of decayed noise layers and distant industrial rumbles. This is the sound of decomposition. Professionally duplicated tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

"Could not possibly be more excited about this one. Mar Habrine (a.k.a. Soaking Rasps, Smoldering Wreath, and member of Mpls. groove-noise trio Skoal Kodiak) delivers nine totally crucial and meditative tracks of distinct slippy-dubby electronics and deep murk-gurgle jams. Minimal non-beats and hard stereo panned gargling, loopy lazer beam hymns and deep tone-load zoners. This is heavy head music. A jungle of filters and leaky capacitors conjures invisible bass players playing invisible grooves, soaring zurna mantras, hissing tea pots and hypnotic electro-grizz rhythms that demand involuntary body movement. So, so good. The world has been patiently waiting for a take-home Rasps experience. After years of performing on the regular both solo and collaboratively under the Soaking Rasps moniker, Mar finally laid these springtime essentials to tape, and the sun shines a bit brighter for it. Three cheers for tangible evidence! These recordings include some disarmingly musical work, lovely and focused pow-wow sessions. Hits the streets with days to spare before the upcoming "Heavy Focus" festival in Minneapolis, MN. Real time duplicated black shell cassette comes with full color labels and matching full color double sided card stock J-card featuring some pretty strange future-surrealist artwork that lends a definite "sci-fi" mood to the sounds contained within. Not science-fiction as in boring cosmic synth dreamy nothing-ness, but science-fiction like beautiful naked cat-women huddled en-mass on a distant barren planet. Really weird". - Label Description

" Lighten Up Sounds is proud to present this soggy new selection of abstract transmissions from the main Murk-Man himself. Mole Hole is the solo bummer-electronics project of Matthew Himes, reclusive small-town misanthrope, and chief proprietor of the Lighten Up Sounds imprint. What we present here is a long time coming anthology of six new ten minute tracks, each thematically sequenced for their respective sides. These are sprawling and depressive works focused upon the psychological effects of physical isolation and severe emotional deprivation. Makes for a full hour of deep mud-pit spelunking. This lovely box-set presents a gurgling expanse of “warts-and-all” extreme-sound coping mechanisms, ranging broadly from minimal deep-fuzz delusion to bizarre aggressive assault mode. Tape machines, amplified file cabinets, Wavetek signal generator, Korg Monotron, rusty sheet steel, creaking springs, xerox machines, violin scratch, obscure field recordings, mysterious found sound and even glimpses of seething vocal rage floating up through the fog. Includes an exclusive creeper-zone track composed in honor of the legendary cult-classic horror film ”Re-Animator”. Matching set of three transparent blue shell cassettes with "F.T.W.“ labels comes packaged in a heavy 5"x 9"audio-book album featuring stark black and white “Blindfold Lesson” artwork with hand-numbered Seclusion text pasted inside. Nobody cares, get used to it". - Label Description

"Raw delivery in an attempt to document and capture the essence of recent crude and cathartic live actions. Grinding static assault and shifting granular murk-attack. Recorded live, no mixer, no pedals, no overdubs. Sounds sourced from adapted/broken phonograph machine, prepared/damaged lathe-cut picnic plates, and prepared/damaged 16mm film loops and projector, along with analog micro synth, everything heavily zonked and spat back out for ultimate brain damage. Psychedelic crackle-mantras and rhythmic warble tone, carving deep jagged lines into frontal lobe. Handmade wooden-object package, with unlabeled solid red shell C40 sandwiched between two thick chunks of 90 year old barn wood (slightly rotten, old paint flakes, etc.) firmly fastened together with a pair of 2” phillips screws, topped off with wrap around xerox paste-on artwork featuring disturbing and stark double exposure hypno-regression fantasy, wrapped up tight and protected in heavy 7” plastic bag.

"Grainy document of a live solo performance, developed as part of an art installation at The Soap Factory Gallery in Minneapolis, MN. “Yurt Transmission” captures nearly a full hour of slow electronic drift and low-fi isolationism. Local artists Jess Hirsch and Beth Chekola joined forces to produce an indoor climate as part of the Northern Spark Arts festival. Jess filled the space with a set of stunning laser-cut “labyrinth” area carpets, and Beth cobbled together a beautiful open air shelter, or “yurt” built from recycled and abandoned home furniture. Select local sound artists were asked to perform inside the developed space for the event, providing obscure sonic tapestries to accompany the remarkable visual aspects of the space. Matthew Himes played an extremely minimal solo set comprised of waveform signal generator, magnetic tape manipulation, gong & bell percussion, and analog ribbon synth. Fully melted waves of transcendent murk meditation. Very pure sound. Originally released in a tiny private edition, this work has been given a new breath of life with this graciously public printing. Real time duplicated white shell cassette comes packaged with striking double sided yellow and black "Labyrinth" art paper J-card w/ matching yellow and black labels and printed white vellum insert in a clear Norelco case. Room sound soliloquy, tape warmth and profound warble tone for supremely heavy lids". - Label Description

"Super stoked to be putting out this mighty bohemoth of a tape: Two 30 minute sides of delicious and bloody mayhem courtesy of this Brighton/Eastbourne duo. Recorded at home and whilst on tour in Brighton, Leeds and Blackpool (where the show literally ended in a bloody mess) Comes without download code but with handmade covers, insert and a swell patch". - Label Description

"MV has always explored many genres, ranging from dark ambient to neo-classical, but Salvation On Sand Mountain brings a much harsher, more oppressive approach. 70 minutes of solid death industrial and power electronics, easily comparable to early CMI releases. Features guest vocals by NYODENE D, THE VOMIT ARSONIST, CUNTING DAUGHTERS, FASCIST INSECT, and more". - Label Description

Harsh and dense drone from George Proctor (Mutant Ape, Sump). Released 2006.

A void of steel blackness surrounded by malignant dictaphones and malicious distortion pedals. Comes in 3 way oversize case with insert. Around £2.66 an hour - cheap and oppressive labour. Horrible work if you can get it...

Harsh noise destruction from George Proctor (Inseminoid, Sump etc...).

Mutant Ape collaborations from this/last year with Manchester based Roases (the other half of Sump) and Blyth based Wrest. The Roases collaboration focuses more on the structured and less abrassive side of noise sound, where as the Wrest collaboration makes no statement other than complete and outright destruction of amplifiers and ear drums. Comes in PVC bag.

Mutant Turd, transported back in time to the height of GG Allin. They ship him off to Cuba, he plays in Cuba. At the same time in Leeds, England the Mutant Turd boys listen to his performance over a short wave radio, plug it into an amp and release a tape. Full colour covers.

"Sludge-mystics trigger involuntary trance-mode. Myrrh is the power trio of Jackie Beckey (of Brute Heart), Andie Mazorol (Mother Of Fire) and Jason Millard (Lighted). They have made a name for themselves around Minneapolis with their epic and minimal form of instrumental doom pummel, but the instrumentation itself also sets this group apart. Viola, Lap Steel, Electronics and Drums weave together to form what could possibly be the heaviest folk music ever made. There is an air filled sense of space throughout these recordings, while still providing detailed crunch and clarity to the goings on. Sweeping strings and percussive plucking folded over sliding fuzz and tone-crackle, backed by enormous crushing rhythm. Restrained yet unbelievably massive. Masterfully recorded by Jason Misik to 1” tape, and beautifully mixed by John Marks (Art of This), "Hymns" comes as a powerful follow up to their excellent self-titled debut album, recently re-released on vinyl from Soft Abuse". - Label Description

"Dark, crust of the earth HNW from Brazil’s Carrion Black Pit and Italy’s Nascitari. Inspired by Edgar Allen Poe’s The Conqueor Worm". - Label Description

"Reclusion is a tricky concept. To be a true recluse requires some type of societal absence, therefore the act of reclusion is difficult to obtain. Need from Illinois captures the desire to be away from people; a jumble of hardcore punk slumped together into a five minute mess. Mastered by Will Killingsworth at Dead Air Studios. Limited to 50 grey tapes wrapped in an o-card, housed inside a polybag". - Label Description

"Simple sound sources played repetitively, yielding a highly diverse layer of sounds. The audio capibilities of water. Staged works of apathy, revealing a beautiful experiment". - Label Description

"First Swim Club release of 2011, recorded during a cold Brighton winter. 15 minutes per side of woozy keyboard drones, found cassette recordings and ambient noodlings". - Label Description

"A truly bizarre duo from Buffalo, playing minimal and spastic scrapings and screeches. Tape hiss, feedback, cardboard solos and a blatant disregard for the musical fourth wall combine to make a truly strange listening experience". - Label Description

"3 cassettes (c20 + c9 + c17) filled with three theatre pieces posing as harsh noise works. Static blasts, quiet atmospheres, and unsettling vocals abound". - Label Description

Over the years Hal Hutchinson has gone from working under the radar to being at the forefront of the noise scene. Through years of dedication to his art, releasing small editions and playing gigs relentlessly all over the place; he has earned his right to stand atop the pile, above the rest of us who have chosen to take a lazier path... It is with great pleasure that I announce the release of quite possibly the last Pollutive Static tape to exist as Mr. Hutchinson turns his attention towards new projects. This tape features 2 live sets of extreme harsh noise, from the chaotic to the sublime, recorded in Tilburg and London respectively. Highly focus and pure electronic sound spews forth in stark contrast to the acoutisc metallic sounds heard within the releases under his own name. Comes in a PVC bag with collage artwork by Lucy Johnson.

Two live recordings in about 40 minutes of junk noise trash from Northern England. The first side is taken from Newcastle which see's Gillham from Snotnosed/Drunk In Hell and Baines playing the infamous Distraction Records weekender at The Cluny in 2005. Gillham, Baines and Dave/Milovan from Smell & Quim tear it up in Leeds as part of the Curmudgeon alldayer at the Packhorse in a bloody noise battle. Pro dubbded tapes in a pro dubbed fold out cover featuring all manner of grotesque artwork inside a PVC bag. Limited to 77 copies.

The second Progeria Youth release, the follow up to 2005's "Dirty Disease" CD-r. Recorded last year via the post. This release see's the lads go into more focused territory but with that rough-round-the-edges approach from before. Full colour art by Proctor.

"PUSDRAINER is making the rounds with some great releases as of late, and "Sexual Revulsion" is no exception. 4 tracks of pummeling harsh noise (some of it almost heading into HNW territory) with buried, torturous vocal work. PUSDRAINER is currently touring the eastern and midwestern US… check him live for the full effect. 50 copies". - Label Description

"It's a funny thing, 'cause grindcore will be grindcore. This tape shares two bands with the theme of playing short, fast, noisy and loud tracks via distorted guitars, blast beats and low growls barking angry messages from the speakers. Although Rackus offers a more punk rock approach to the genre, Exacerbación balances it out with a faster, dirtier sound. These are some fine tunes that seem well suited for the aesthetics of a cassette tape release!" - Which Way To The Beats Blog

"Regosphere starts the tape with a throbbing track of death-industrial psychedelics and menacing synth work, featuring special guest vocals by The Vomit Arsonist. The lyrics deal with the mental ramifications on both sides after unexpected physical violence. The second track gets more experimental with thick layers of bleak synths, churning tape loops and manipulated field recordings colliding in a overwhelming dose of anxiety-electronics. Shiver hails from Italy and is a member of the fantastic drone/noise trio Ur and founder of the Diazepam label. On his half of the split he gives one ten minute track of desolate atmospheres and focused aggression that ebbs and flows creating tension throughout. Using creative layers of feedback, chanted and screamed vocals and a heavy bottom end provided by a bass guitar. Mauro seems to be honing his sound, straying from the more power electronics centered earlier releases, to incorporating the organic drones that make Ur so great but with a heavier nastier edge. Another project in the long tradition of esoteric industrial acts that Italy has become known for. Limited edition of 50 hand numbered copies. Color laser printing on white cardstock, high quality chrome tapes. Cover photo by Shiver". - Label Description

"This is a one time(?) live collaboration between Mark Wilson (CONURE, 15 DEGREES BELOW ZERO), Andre Custodio (NIHIL COMMUNICATION) and Thomas Dimuzio. The three got together to create an extremely interesting document-- two side long tracks of industrial noise coupled with abstract/experimental bits and a good amount of percussion, some of it almost African-influenced. Play loud and soak it in-- there's a lot going on. 50 copies". - Label Description

"Three live documents from this depraved power electronics act. these are bootleg-style recordings-- far from soundboard quality-- but the quality itself blends perfectly with the content within. this is ugly. this is violent. and there's more falsetto shrieks than a judas priest record. 100 copies". - Label Description

"Wailing feedback morphs into delicate fingerpicking and sweeping tides of lap-steel shimmer. Sagas is the solo project of Matt McDowell (of Dire Wolves, Waterfinder). Lovely and real,"Sojourner's Lament", presents three focused improvisations for lap steel, guitar and electronics, each with its own respective sense of deep spacial awareness and an uneasy sense of doom hovering just beneath the surface. Lighten Up is proud to offer up these new sessions for your personal deep listening and metaphysical mind travel. Clear shell cassette comes packaged with full color double sided J-card featuring original collage artwork by M.H. with matching full color labels in a clear Norelco case. Aqua-lung beauty for barren cornfields". - Label Description

"Jaakko Tolvi is a Finnish drummer, percussionist and multi-instrumentalist known from many different underground bands and projects (Pymathon, Rauhan Orkesteri, Transkaakko, Nunnauuni, etc..). These are, in his own words, his best works. Utterly insane cut-up pause-button stop'n'go plunderphonix that will have you scratching your head for a long time. This tape includes both obscure self-released CD-Rs from 2003 and 2005, at the time on ridiculously small editions on his DIY label Lintutalo. Professionally duplicated neon green tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

"Distorted percussions and tape loops manipulation. Throbbing drones and field recordings. Pissed off lyrics/vocals". - Label Description

Double cassette feature from this Canadian killer! Conceptual release with the first tape being a heavily edited and dense sound collage of static wall spit and the other tape being pure dense sine wave on one side and pink noise (on a pink tape) on the other! Tapes come printed in a large vinyl case with minimal artwork. Really please with this one! Sick Buildings! Limited to 100 copies.

"Majestic balance burns through damaged synapse. Entrancing electro-acoustic scratch, long form isolationism and cavernous tape-drone meditation from Sindre Bjerga, who should need no introduction after his prolific string of releases on various labels across the underground spectrum. With "Radiant Flux", Bjerga provides a well matched pair of profound live documents from his recent live actions in Norway. Broken tone acrobatics and crinkled tape stew, garble and wallow in the hopeless gurgle ditch. Side A was recorded live in Public Library! Each side features the same gear setup and deliberate sonic approach, yielding two obviously related but distinctly separate audio tapestries. An impulsive trance nod off, slashed silk. Pure room-sound environments! Real time duplicated bright yellow opaque shell cassette with printed bright yellow labels comes beautifully packaged inside custom fabricated machine-sewn plastic envelopes, featuring original full color/translucent collage art by M.H. with a hand-numbered printed vellum insert. Frozen fire shines brightly, an everlasting shard of light". - Label Description

Lucy Johnson's Smut project is seen here in stripped down form; utilising only a piano and a tape recorder. The pieces featured on this tape drift from sombre marches into ecstatic triumphant rining tones. Drawing on influences such as La Monte Young and the monolithic droning nature of early Earth with a more lo-fi and forlorn feeling. Packaged in a hand stamped envelope.

"Scraps" is an appropriate title for the debut release of Lucy Johnson's (Rife, Space Victim etc...) Smut project. A rich tapestry of experimental sound work outs collected over a couple of years. A rare project within the genre in the sense that actual delicate care and time has been taken to truly finalise sounds before release. An exciting and impressive debut of True Northern Experimental Music. Tape comes in PVC bag.

"If you caught this HNW powerhouse on their recent tour, you know what you're in for. Hot, sweaty, disgusting, brutally harsh wall noise from the bowels of the southern United States. Those of you who know me know that I'm VERY picky about wall noise…. so you should know that my recommendation of this cassette is essentially a guarantee. 50 copies". - Label Description

"After several years of infrequent stages of activity, Solar Horn presents their first own official release, previously having taken part in Blind Date Records' Clone III compilation with a cover version of L7's "Talk Box". Compared to the sparse live appearances over the years, "Rebirth Ritual" presents a less psychedelic and more violent sound with heavy emphasis on monotonous bass riffs, endless layers of painful feedback and wailing guitars as well as minimalistic drums and metal junk percussion. No intention to please or entertain, instead purely to purge negativity from the members' system". - Label Description

"The second installment on FTAM from Wes Tank. Highly bizarre and textural hip hop atmospheres". - Label Description

"Simply put: blown-out harsh noise. Two tracks of metal abuse tinged with distant cries, hums, and sparse synth blasts. A sincere attempt to cleanse the guilt and make amends. Each copy of this tape includes an individual typed apology. 30 copies". - Label Description

"Two songs recorded during fits of summer illness. Focuses on physical ailments and the violent decomposition of the body. Massive feedback shifts, distant cries, synth drones, samples, and fuzzed-out clatter. Listen with a headache, listen covered in sweat. 50 copies". - Label Description

"Primitive cut-up insanity from 1995. Executed (dis)tastefully on crappy home stereo equipment, throwing up hundreds of audio snippets in an exhausting linear style, and mixing in some degenerate guitar klonking, only to end in a shitstorm of semi-HNW... so, no fancy multilayered noise here!! Early NWW-ish dada junk by obscure Australian project. Reissue of the rare LP (only 100 made at the time), originally on Very Good Records. For friends of Plunderphonics, Stillupsteypa, Boredoms, etc... Professionally dubbed tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

"LOUD and VIOLENT power electronics noise from a new Italian project. Perfect balance of old and new, always harsh and intense. Professionally dubbed tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

"80+ minutes of Finnish junk electronics Noise. Calculator, car stereo, TV remote control, old radio from garbage were transformed into three pieces of intense mesmerizing brutality". - Label Description

"Pure post-mortem electronics continuing perfectly the style presented on this new Finnish project's debut tape on Filth & Violence. Sleazy, ugly and proud of it. Hateful and non-pc content - not for everyone! C60 with same audio on both sides. Professionally dubbed tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

Behind The Toilet Door was a one day "festival" (for want of a better word) held in Blyth, Northumberland on the 2nd November 2008 featuring a slew of the more bizaree names in Northern Noise underbelly. Each project, band or artist was made to perform, as the name would suggest, within the small, claustrophobic confines of the wood workshop toilet. This document features the first half of the proceedings with sets from Brian Mueter And The Grandfather Clock, One Wobbly Egg, Waz Hoola, Dirty Den and "Wild" Joe Parsons, MC Blazin', Chris "Pause" Richardson, Ron The Birdcage and Scottish free jazz favourites Tighten Me Jewels. Hear them from behind the toilet door, watch them through the keyhole; hear them as they should be heard. Part II is available on Matching Head.

"Since 2005, the Milwaukee noise scene has grown from a disjointed smattering of weirdos to where it is now: a thriving and diverse creative community. FTAM and Starved Relations have decided to capture the first five years of this growth by putting together the “Milwaukee Noise: 2005-2010” box set. The twelve cassettes contained within highlight a number of the heavy hitters from the scene during these years (most of whom are still active in Milwaukee). From all out harsh assaults and heavy power electronics to modular synth drones and tape machinery wizardry, the box set truly captures the wide range of approaches and the high level of quality the city has and continues to cultivate. Artists included: Blessed Sacrifist, Captivity, Climax Denial, Custodian, Dan of Earth, Lucky Bone, M Jurek, Mildew, Nummy, Pataphor, Peter J Woods & Reptile Worship. Professionally Printed/Duplicated cassettes w/ Full Cover Insert, 12 page b/w Zine with Full Color Cover Housed in Vinyl Case". - Label Description

"At 10:04 PM on November 12, 1955, a lightning bolt struck the Clocktower in Hill Valley CA, sending 1.21 jiggwatts of electricity into the Flux Capacitor, thus transporting Marty McFly back to 1985. At 10:04 PM (GMT) on November 12, 2011, a tape was released in dedication of the best trilogy of all time.

"French HNW master releases two new tracks of unrelenting, monolithic static noise. Turn up loud, meditate, and stare into the abyss. Pro tapes and j-cards. Limited to 100 pieces". - Label Description

"Split cassette between Vomir, France's dark master of static HNW, and Belgium's Crucifix Eye. The release explores two different approaches to the realm of HNW. Vomir's side further continues his winding corridor of static, meditative harsh noise. Crucifix Eye uses data-bending to create his walls. Analog vs. Digital. Both result in uncompromising harsh noise". - Label Description

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.

"On most of their releases, WILT walks a fine line between dark ambient and death industrial.. this release sees them tip the scales all the way over the death industrial line. Harrowing, blackened noise comprised of synths, guitar, junk metal, vocals, etc. This tape sounds downright evil. Listen in the dark and listen loud. Includes a DISEMBOWELMENT cover. 50 copies". - Label Description

"Wince is a well-kept harsh noise secret from USA walking the path laid by his countrymen Macronympha and Kakerlak and doing it pretty fuken well!! Epic track based on scrap metal and field recordings. Sounds of factory hiding the voices of revolution-planning workers. SSRI presents a live recording, performed at Feces II festival in Turku, Finland. Lo-fi, ugly, anti-entertainment. Pure tape noise. Professionally duplicated tapes with bodyprints". - Label Description

Debut tape from the duo of Lee Stokoe (Culver, Skullflower) on electronics and Lucy Johnson (Smut, Rife) on piano. A bizarre recording of warbling tape hiss and heavy piano melodies. A unique and wonderful sound.

"Extremely raw and haunted Black Metal noise from Yolande of North West England. All Dead sound!! 30 Copies". - Label Description

"This tape got a strange review on Vital Weekly 823. The reviewer wrote self-considered observation about the concept I set and how I made, referred my liner note inside the sleeve. It's really strange text that is referring computer science including numerical matters like bit calculations, philosophy, and music criticism's boundary? They the topics are a bit deviated. Again, it's strange, but simply interesting in a viewpoint of like watching concrete poetry. So, we can also decipher it into like "dadaistic" letters construction". - Band Description
