digipack
CD 2010 |
|
| |
/
industrial / post-rock / machine sounds / |
|
| |
DREDDUP is an
industrial, machine, dynamic, and energetic project from Serbia.
It is a rare occasion to see a project from the Balkans on the
European market. DREDDUP has huge creative potential, and its
performances are particularly dynamic, which places it in the
forefront of the European industrial scene. Their truly
apocalyptic lyrics touch on subjects such as time, transience and
existence. |
|
| |
'El Conquistadors'
gives you 70 minutes of hardcore, dynamic industrial/rock music
similar in fashion to Einstürzende Neubauten, The Young Gods, or
Laibach. It is their third album, and it constitutes the last part
of the trilogy preoccupied with the notion of time. 'El
Conquistadors' tells a story of the here and now and of the
boundaries of the human soul. |
|
| |
Ladies and gentlemen,
we present a cry from the Balkans, a manifesto of the realm of
machines, dust and rust... |
|
| |
 |
|
| |
This 70-minute album
contains 15 tracks and is available in a
full-colour Digipak. Edition of 500 copies. |

/
dark deep ambient / darksounds / |

This new album by a
Polish group explores the phenomenon of Ambient music. The

a journey which will inspire your heart and spirit. This journey
resonates with echoing sounds and folk songs invariably connected
to Mother Earth. This album has a spirit - the spirit of Earth. |
|
| |
On 'Anywhere Out Of
This World' you will find perfectly arranged and well-balanced
ambient compositions, spatial collages underpinned by folklore,
which emphasizes the album's specific nature. As usual, suitable
piano parts reflect the record's character. |

This over-50-minute
album contains 11 tracks and is available in a full-colour Digipak.
Edition of 500 copies. The album should appeal to those who enjoy

GROBBING
THRISTLE |
|
"Hidden
Strategies"
CD
2009 |
|
/
experimental ambient / noise with postindustrial / |
|
Who would expect
that under the name Grobbing Thristle are hidden mutated clones of
Genesis P. Orridge, will be surprised by the amount of sound
strategies used by the Poznañ's ensemble. |
|
Despite that GT
knowingly place themselves in continuum named by the creations of
20 Jazz Funk Greats”, their noise-electronic collages with every
listening bring new musical universes.
On one of the levels
Grobbing Thristle play steel symphony of postindustrial earthy
Inferno. Noisy wind of clicks, cracks, laptop grinds, insect like
microsamples and psychotic looped vocals lead into paranoic world
like in novels of Philipa K.Dicka. The thing that scares here the
most is by paradox, the most common and accustom element - voice.
The words "...So yes I have to go now, so bye bye..." opening the
album sound like a goodbye before descending into the abyss. But
this is a hell of cybernetic robots - this is a music that brings
pain. Fortunately for artistic might of the recordings GT knows
how to dose it. |

2009 |
|
/
dark ambient / darkdrone / |
|
The
best album in Beast Of
Prey! |
|
"Legendy
miejskie /
Urban Legends",
the latest album by ATUM, has just arrived!
"Urban
Legends",
arguably one of the strongest titles of the Beast of Prey label,
is an extraordinary album, composed mostly of field recordings
registered in Jaworzno, the home town of ATUM. It is an attempt at
reconstructing the surroundings in order to distill something that
eludes the every-day experience. Despite its private character,
the message of the Legends is universal as well. Everyone of us
passes dozens of places we think are "tamed", places seemingly
devoid of meaning. Just a little effort is what it takes to dispel
this illusion.
Musically, the album is rather varied. It's a combination of field
recordings, drones, whispers, and sounds of different acoustic
instruments. The purpose is to reveal the oneiric dark side of the
surrounding world. Guests such as Infamis (acoustic guitar),
Tomasz K, Rafa³ Pach, and Piotr U (the author's friends from
Jaworzno) contributed to the making of the album. |

MOON FAR AWAY - "Minnesang"
CD
(Ahnstern /
Steinklang)
Brand new album from cult Russian Neofolk act Moon Far Away! "Minnesang"
is an album of 21st century ritual music encased in a unique
fusion of the most diverse and zeitgeist-capturing musical styles,
from neofolk, dark folk and post punk to practically future pop.
The theme of the album, the deep-rooted feminine archetypes in
contemporary art, is embodied in the title, which identifies a
genre of medieval knight lyrics. At the same time, most of the
original Russian lyrics on the album are drenched with the
trademark Pomor flavours, emphasising the pride that the band has
always taken in its cultural roots that extend deep into the epic
traditions of the Russian North. "Minnesang" is a new milestone
achieved by a cult group who already gave contemporary art scene a
number of discoveries and revelations. This Ahnstern version has
partly different artwork to the Russian edition and the last song
is completely different to the Russian version. |

PHASE II -
Afterglow" digipack CD
(Ahnstern /
Steinklang)
It has been a little over 32 since the inception and all-too-brief
life span of Phase II, the prog-folk band founded by Mark Andrews
(Blue Grass) and Nicholas Tesluk (Changes). "Afterglow" introduces
modern listeners to Phase II's unique and timeless mixture of
varied musical styles. Included in this expansive release are 6
songs from their original repertoire, all recorded here for the
very first time. As a special reprise, all songs from their only
release ( a long out of print 7" blue vinyl) have been enhanced
and included on the album. To bring things full-circle, Phase II
is also proud to present a recording of its first all-new song of
the 21st century on this CD. The 69 minute album concludes with "Candle
in the Night", their complete pre-progressive, conceptual radio
program from 1978. Digipak with booklet featuring full lyrics, as
well as an anecdotal history of the band in text and photos. |

ALLERSEELEN -
"Rauhe
Schale"
digipack
CD
(Ahnstern /
Steinklang)
"Rauhe Schale"
('Rough Shell') is the brand new album from Austrian legends
Allerseelen, which fascinates musically as well as visually.
Everything moves and flows in a field of force between industrial,
metal, folklore and pop. Lovers of bands like Nine Inch Nails,
Einstürzende Neubauten, Laibach or Underworld could also fall in
love with Allerseelen. Gerhard Hallstatt sometimes describes his
music as Electronic Folklore or Apocalyptic Rock. But basically
there is no real description for Allerseelen - all attempts to
find an expression for their music may be valid for some time, yet
lose their meaning after a couple of months or years. The songs
were inspired by various magical mystery tours in Austria,
Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Italy and Slovenia. Gerhard is assisted
here by Dimo Dimov (Svarrogh, Miel Noir, Sturmpercht), Marcel P. (Sagittarius,
Halgadom), Meri Tadic (Eluveitie) and Annabel Lee (Blood Axis). 70
mins. of music in a digipak with booklet. |
|
| |
|
|
ALLERSEELEN -
"Hallstatt"
digipack
CD
(Ahnstern
/ Steinklang) - The Allerseelen CD Hallstatt contains
thirteen brand-new apocalyptic and passionate songs about love and
death. This release - musically situated somewhere in a terra
incognita between folklore, krautrock, metal and industrial music
- is inspired by the beautiful Upper Austrian village Hallstatt
which belongs to the world cultural heritage due to its amazing
tomb findings of the Hallstatt culture and the unique ossuary with
the painted skulls. The songs have lyrics and vocals by Gerhard
Petak and R. N. Taylor from Changes. These apocalyptic industrial
folklore songs about love and death were recorded in 2006 and 2007
at Haus zur letzten Latern. The voice of R.N. Taylor was recorded
and engineered by Bob Ferbrache at Studio Absintheia. |

ALLERSEELEN - "Edelweiss"

6-side digipack contains a selection of the best ALLERSEELEN songs,
many of them for the first time on CD. also some unreleased
Industrial-Folk hymns will give pleasure to the listener's ears.
at a bigger part of the songs, ALLERSEELEN was supportet by
guest-musicians: Demian (O PARADIS), Rosa (CIRCE), Gaya (HAGSHADOW),
JOSEF and Herr Percht (STURMPERCHT) help to give this album a very
special touch. and last but not least this CD is presented to you
for the fantastic price of a mini-CD only! |

FRAKMUNDT - "Urbarglieder"
digipack CD (Percht) Amazing and unique debut CD of the Swiss
Ur-Folk project Fräkmündt, born out of the idea to revive old
sagas and nearly forgotten songs and atmospheres of the alpine
regions of Switzerland. Performed in alemannic central-Swiss
dialect, the songs on "Urbärglieder" simulate a journey through
landscapes of the quaint regions of Switzerland. They let you
chase through stormwinds with the wild hunt at mount Pilatus or
stroll under the paintings of the danse macabre over the
Spreuerbridge in Lucerne. One can meet the devil in the Schöllenen
gorge and follow the alpine herdsmen during their sad walk down to
the valleys in autumn. The album is alternated by two
sound-accentuated sagas and two atmospheric pieces, letting one
share the horrors of the ghost-house in Stans and the mythical
ambiance inside the Mondmilchloch cave. On "Urbärglieder" acoustic
guitars, accordion, violin, flutes and various percussion
instruments generate melancholic melodies full of nostalgia, but
also rousing hymns which invite to dance. With "Urbärglieder" a
piece of extraordinary Ur-Folk music was born, telling in its very
own way the stories that are almost forgotten. Features cz (Vinterriket,
Atomtrakt, Nebelkorona etc). Deluxe digipak with 16 page booklet. |

Wolff (Waldteufel) and Meri Tadic (Irij) as well as new band
member Waldwuudz (aka cz of Vinterriket). "Schattenlieder - Eine
kleine Nachtmusick für Berggeister und Waldteufel" (Shadowsongs -
a serenade for mountain trolls and forest devils) contains 20
songs utilising a wealth of weird and wonderful musical
instruments and is presented in a 6-panel digipak with booklet. |

STURMPERCHT - "A wilde Zeit" digipack CD
(Percht

songs and long deleted vinyls from the inventors of ALPINE FOLK
music. The CD includes most songs from early 2003 until end of
2005, except the first LP/CD "Stürm ins Leben wild hinein". "a
wilde Zeit" includes all 7inches, many songs from the mLP "alpine
Bann- und Segenssprüche" and several compilation tracks, as well
as one unreleased song. this CD was originally released in a
limited edition of 100 copies in wooden case, but due to endless
requests from fans and distributers, we decided to release the
album officially now, in a (partially) remastered and widely
expanded version. the CD comes in a 6-side digipack with stunning
artwork. |

STURMPERCHT - "Stürm ins Leben wild hinein!"
digipack
CD
(Percht
/
Steinklang)
-
new edition of the
long soldout first Sturmpercht album. This album is pure weird
Alpine-Folk music with martial drinking-songs, alpine battle-hymns
and strange fairie-tales out from the deepest Austrian and
Bavarian forests, all embedded in a breath of black Monty Python
humour. A pearl of pure Alpine Folkmusic! |

BAD SECTOR - "Cmasa" digipack CD
(Loki Fundation) - In 2005 Massimo Magrini was invited to
provide a soundtrack for the M3M art exhibition in Pisa/Italy. The
exhibition was based around images of the seaside and the rivers
estuary of Pisana area with CMASA airplane factory built there in
it´s centre vis a vis of archaic marine structures. This marvelous
seaside scenery mixed with vintage industrial locations, together
with some kind of nostalgia, created an unexpected but amazing
mood. To sculpture a soundtrack of this scenery Massimo Magrini
was asked to use acoustic and natural sounds too and so he added
for this work treated piano and snippets of acoustic guitars
together with water sounds and metal samples. This may sound
unusual for a BAD SECTOR release but all those new elements were
perfectly blent into the massive and ambient soundwaves for what
previous releases are known for and making CMASA probably to the
most emotional album of Massimo Magrini to date. All initial
exhibition sounds where regenerated, remastered and re-assembled
during 2007-2009. |

Propaganda 2000). Harmonic, noisy, emotional electronic tracks set

Tuscany. Besides heavily modified, commercial synthesizers, a
small set of samples of an echocardiogram machine was used as an
additional sound source. This Russian edition includes an
unreleased bonus track. Ltd x 500 copies in a special outsize

YEN POX - "Blood
Music" digibox A5 / 2CD (Malignant Records) 15 years
after it’s original release, and out of print for almost as long,
Yen Pox’ Blood Music has finally been re-issued. Regarded by many
as a benchmark recording within the realm of dark ambient music,
this deluxe 2CD edition contains a completely re-mastered and
remixed version of Blood Music plus a previously unreleased track
on disc 1, as well as the first cassette and various compilation
and 7” releases on disc 2. Combined, the discs offer well over two
hours of colossal, mind bending atmospherics of the highest order,
the sounds radiating outwards into a sprawling horizon of sulfur
dark skies, then descending into a relentless maelstrom of
shifting textures, treacherous reverberations, and endless,
sinister drift.
Packaged in a luxurious 8 panel DVDdigipak, with completely new
design by Andre Coelho (Sektor 304), this is the perfect marriage
of both music and packaging, and will further solidify Blood
Music’s status as one of the all time classic dark ambient
releases.. |

PHAENON - "His
Master's Voice" digipack CD (Malignant Records) After
the well received debut Submerged, Phaenon follows things up with
an even deeper immersion into a world of bleak, isolationist
sounds. Whereas Submerged was one long and infinitely expansive
drone piece, His Master’s Voice is broken up into four separate,
but flowing tracks of sprawling and spacious ambient drift, laced
with interstellar disturbances, probing, alien tones and icy
shards of celestial debris…a whirling specter of darkness and
void-ic space, thematically based upon the 1968 novel of the same
name by Stanislaw Lem, which is centered around the efforts by
scientists to decode, translate and understand a series of
extraterrestrial transmissions. As a whole, His Master’s Voice
represents a logical progression in Phaenon’s sound and is the
ultimate in headphone listening. In gorgeous 6 panel digipak. |

|
PHELIOS - "Astral
Unity" digipack CD (Malignant Records) Following two
CDs on Eternal Soul and a recent split LP on LOKI, Germany’s
revered dark ambient project Phelios makes their first appearance
for Malignant. With its swirling cosmic drones and sweeping,
cinematic drift, the music of Phelios is breathtaking and hypnotic,
often evoking moments of serenity and beauty, yet spiking them
with deep cushions of ritualistic percussion and textural squalls
that suggest something much more ominous and threatening looms on
the vast horizon. Collectively, Astral Unity is thoughtful and
concise – a vivid and richly detailed entity that’s alive and
constantly evolving, channeling the universe while simultaneously
exploring the inner regions of a more primordial earth. In 6 panel
digipak, with gold foil stamping.. |

COLLAPSAR - "Beyond the Event Horizon" digipack CD
(Malignant Records) - Malignant presents another rising star
within the dark ambient scene, this time in the form of French act
Collapsar. With their debut CD, “Beyond The Event Horizon”
Collapsar transports the listener on an epic journey deep into the
cosmos, forging a path across a vast, inky void, and steering a
course around a roiling galactic core of hyper-dense stars and
black holes. The sound is epic, expansive, and most of all, HEAVY.
There is beauty and tranquility within these realms, but there is
no light – just massive, pulsating textures coalescing into
shimmering drones, rippling sound waves, and billowing,
multi-dimensional layers of powerful dark energy. “Beyond the
Event Horizon” is without question, dark ambient in its purest
form and one of the more genre defining releases of the last
several years. A must for fans of Inade, Lustmord and the like. In
6 panel digipak, with design by ::: Eye.Lyft ::: |

SEWER GODDESS - "With
Dirt You Are One" CD (Black Plague Prod.) -
Following numerous cassette and vinyl releases, With Dirt You Are
One represents the first formal CD release from this Boston based
cult project and officially kicks off the return of Malignant side
label, Black Plagve. Expect 9 tracks of wretched, filth ridden,
post mortem electronics, spewing forth a barrage of unclean
frequencies, skuzzy reverberations, blackened drones, and
anguished, inhuman vocalizations. Filled with negativity and dread,
this is a hellishly grim and visceral assault, and essential
listening for anyone into the darker, more depraved side of heavy
electronics .Lmtd 500 copies, in jewel box.. |

ATOMTRAKT - "Sperrstelle
Nordost" digipack CD (Steinklang) Two years after the highly
acclaimed "Nuklearchetyp" album the mighty Atomtrakt are finally
back with a new release entitled "Sperrstelle Nordost". This new
opus sets new standards in the Apocalyptic / Martial Industrial
scene: Words like 'bombastic', 'martial', 'heroic' or 'militant'
definitely need to be re-defined. The atmosphere of "Sperrstelle
Nordost" is threatening and cold. It leads the listener back to
times of war and truly hits like an atomic bomb. "Sperrstelle
Nordost" deals with the situation of Switzerland in the 2nd world
war / cold war - "Sperrstell Nordost" is an area in Switzerland
which was of national importance for the entire country during
times of war. The lyrics deal with fears, death, decay and
ambiguity. The album features a superb video clip for 'Trauermarsch'.

STORMFAGEL - "Eldvakt"
digipack CD (Steinklang) The new album from Swedish Martial
cult-act Stormfågel, known from their previous two albums on the
legendary Cold Meat Industry label. "Eldvakt" is an incredible mix
of early Derniere Volonte and Rome with a strong touch of new
Blood Axis. Pure Martial PowerPop at it's very best! Since its
inception in 2004, Stormfågel is and has always been about the
love of nature, our history, the absence of God and the decline of
mankind. "Ja må vara en wavelmakare men int en happkråka...". 72
minutes of music in a digipak. |

HROSSHARSGRANI -
"Pro Liberate Dimicandum Est" CD (Steinklang) "Pro Liberate
Dimicandum Est" was released specially for the 2000 years
anniversary of the "Varusschlacht" (also known as the Battle Of
Teutoburg Forest and immortalised by Ridley Scott in the film
"Gladiator"). Classical melodies combined with the iron rough
edges of Martial Industrial on a crusade through the ages. A
musical journey far off the trampled paths of industrial art was
the basis for each single Hrossharsgrani track! Hrossharsgrani is
Alex Hugin Wieser, the man behind Uruk-Hai, Bonemachine etc. DVD
case packaging. |

HROSSHARSGRANI /
DEAD MAN'S HILL - "Dead Meat" CD (Steinklang) Two-way split
album - a great mix between Martial / Industrial / Ambient /
Electronic and more. Five new Hrossharsgrani anthems featuring
vocals by Bart Piette from D.M.H. and Pr. Sergiy from Moloch, as
well as five new monumental epics from the master of Dark Ambient,
Dead Man's Hill - this time a lot more intense and song-oriented
than on earlier releases. "Dead Meat" is the so far most mature
and complex album of both artists. Composition, interpretation and
design feel like a smack in the face and leave no room for
compromise! Morbidity meets iron avant-garde, romanticism
encounters the frozen coldness of metal! When will people finally
realize: if you want to feel you MUST listen! Slimline DVD case. |

ASMOROD - "Hysope"
digipack CD (Steinklang) The 4th Asmorod CD is a fascinating,
introspective, deep ambient work that distinguishes itself from
the mass of uniform dark ambient releases. Niiko (now the only
member of Asmorod) used the word Hysope (French word for "Hyssop")
as a symbol of spiritual purification. In ancient times, Hyssop
was used for the cleansing of lepers (Leprosy may represent sin...
but lepers were not necessarily sinful) and used for cleaning
sacred places. It is alluded to in the Scriptures: 'Purge me with
Hyssop, and I shall be clean' (Purify me from my sins, and i will
be clean; wash me, and i will be whiter than snow. Psalms 51:7).
Two tracks from the album feature choirs by eLL from Sui Generis
Umbra. Digipak. |

IRM –
"The
Cult of the Young Men"
CD (Annihilvs) Returning with a singularly cold, desolate
and lonely release, IRM continues to fervently espouse irreligious,
body-obsessed abstractions of the highest order. Departing from
the aggressive PE outbursts of the past, the Swedish duo of Erik
Jarl and Martin Bladh (SKIN AREA) sculpt pulsating drones,
shuddering frequencies, and powerfully dark sounds, as the
bleeding wound of IRM continues to flower. The aggression may not
be there, but the intensity is in full effect. The Cult of The
Young Men contains 'live' tracks recorded in the studio,
selections from live performances (including the APEX Fest), and a
cover of JOY DIVISION's 'Here are the Young Men. Essential! |

THOLEN - "Sternklang" CD
(Cyclic Law) -
Sternklang
is the expression of the intimate encounter with the whole, the
direct connection with the stars and the vast universe, the sense
of complete union with all the overdimensional attributes of what
surrounds us. With THOLEN, Eisen, the man behind this project has
given us an aurally materialized glimpse of his numerous
stargazing evenings... where the soundscapes are revealed while
the stars seemed to gather and sing out of their primordial and
powerful environment. |

ALLSEITS –
"Hel"
CD
(Cyclic Law)
ALLSEITS is the Solo project of the german instrumentalist Nina
Kernicke known from her recent collaboration with German Drone
pioneers Troum of which Nina has also been a recent live member of
and her work under her other alias, ALLSIDES. The Album "Hel“
describes the way into the underworld, the listener is guided
through various stages on the journey down to Hel, the Norse
mythological term for hell and also for the goddess Hel who is
said to keep watch over the underworld. The journey begins at the
foot of Yggdrasil, the world tree, under which the entry to Hel is
hidden. We then ride the river Gjöll, that flows along the human
world before it runs down to Hel. Gjöll is spanned by the bridge
Gjallarbrù which is guarded by Modgudr, a female giant, who
decides who can pass the bridge. Leaving Gjallarbrú behind, the
large dog Garm that sentinels the gate to Hel is waiting and at
his side sits Fjalar, a rooster that will crow to signify the
beginning of Ragnarok, the end of the world. After passing Fjalar
Hel is finally reached. This allegoric tale is expressed
diligently by Kernicke with the use of guitar, bass, drums and
skillful sampling creating thick drony layers of deep and solemn
emotions. Edition of 1000 copies |

and turned into a refined mass of desolate ambience and subtle
hypnosis all engulfed in Pär's legendary signature sound. Uniquely

JOHNNY CASH -
"American
Recordings"
CD (American Recordings)
Best Contemporary
Folk Album. Johnny Cash is back and better than ever. The
legendary Man In Black is now recording for a modern rock folk. An
original acoustic ballad, the opening "Delia's Gone" is a
watershed accomplishment. Wryly capturing the art of the death
ballad, it presents a thoroughly textured dramatic piece, both
horrifying and humorous. The same can be said for Cash's droll
reading of Loudon Wainwright's "The Man Who Could Not Cry." An
extremely religious man, Johnny includes several songs dealing
with themes of redemption, righteousness and spiritual salvation.
Johnny Cash, alone with a single guitar, is commanding in his dry,
unencumbered intensity. AMERICAN RECORDINGS reaffirms his unique
musical prowess, and presents his glorious shadowy skills to a new
generation. |

CIRCULAR - "Shaping
The Unknown" digipack CD (Loki Foundation) This debut defines
an opulent style of meditative ambient music and celebrates the
pure sound engines of perfect analogue synthesizer music. Johannes
Riedel created an elegant and stylish form of drone music to build
ellipses in between sculptures blowing through the triangular
center. These aural paintings uncover sacred landscapes of
drifting loops and the brilliant use of guitars to set up an
unearthly visionary wall of sound. Circular's music disposes a
special principle where tracks build up slowly and take a period
of concentration, of taking shape, followed by overwhelming
massive soundworlds from outer states. Digipak. |

FJERNLYS - "Beyond
The Undulant Quiescence" CD (Loki Foundation) Fjernlys is Knut
Enderlein (INADE). This album contains 10 epic tracks to reach far
beyond trepidation and tranquility, it's not only welcoming with
open arms but captivating slowly the listener and remaining
breathless till the last sound. "Beyond The Undulant Quiescence"
unifies the opposites when the frostiness of the synthesizer sound
and the warmth of the melodies are melting one another. The
spectrum ranges from melancholic piano compositions to complex and
superior song structures with an open commitment to slow motion.
In every track there is a cryptic sparkling which is always
shimmering but almost stays in the background. It's the
multi-layered arrangement in each track which is constantly
changing the colours and feature a cinematic coarseness in an
audible way. 6-panel digisleeve. |

HERBST9 - "The
Gods Are Small Birds, But I Am The Falcon" digipack CD (Loki
Foundation) The latest album of Herbst9 is a step further into the
depths of the Assyrian and Asian mythologies, using authentic
audio and visual fragments of sacrifices, lamentations, prayers
and ancient rituals. The result is a deep labyrinth of sounds with
meditative percussions, ghostly vocal fragments and singings which
melts with detailed and multi-layered tones of various traditional
instruments. All this is constructed around a core of dark and
ongoing floating drones creating an atmosphere of true archaic
music which has been developed by Herbst9 to perfection. This
soundtrack is the secrecy from the deep and hidden places of the
sacred earth transcending us beyond the real world to the inner
realm of ourselves. The CD is presented in 6-panel digipak. |

INADE - "Burning
Flesh" CD (Loki Foundation) Due to huge demand, Loki
re-released the legendary "Burning Flesh" CD. The limited edition
(500 copies) digipak version from 2000 collected the original 1993
tapes with added bonus material. This new version was
sympathetically remastered at Secretlab in June 2007 and has new
artwork. The soundscape of "Burning Flesh" is a pitch-black
ambience in which peculiar sounds scramble about, igniting a
rising wave of gloom, driven by the slow clatter of tribal hooves
upon unearthly terrain. Highly recommended to all fans of Inade's
unearthly Dark Ambient sound. |

INADE - "The Crackling of the Anonymous" digipack
CD
(Loki Foundation) A dark and hallucinatory masterwork, constructed
via the never heard utterances of the void, while tapping into the
psyche of the impossible. A stunning release that defies all logic
because it creates its own! A must for Dark Ambient fans. |

RAISON D’ETRE –
"The
Stains Of The Embodied Sacrifice"
digipack CD
(Cold Meat Industry)
'The
Stains of the Embodied Sacrifice' is not only vibrating on the
surface of your skin. It is alive and breathing, a creature with a
knife that cut deep wounds in your body while your soul shatters
for air. It is a psychosomatic and transgressive disease opressed
by a compulsive behaviour manifested in dualities - the one of
your body and mind - and states of metamorphoses - mind becomes
flesh become wounds become fluids become stains. Play it loud if
you want to become the martyr. Play it low if you are the innocent
victim. There are no levels in-between. Violent and intense, it is
a hell of an ordeal. But withstand and you are promised bliss. 'The
Stains of the Embodied Sacrifice' is the new full-lenght studio
album by raison d'être. |

Swedish Lord Henrik Nordvargr Björkk (MZ.412, Folkstorm, Toroidh

Neoclassical and some Martial elements. Peter learned to play
several acoustic instruments in the last years and some guest
musicians also helped to create the band's new style. on "No way
out" You hear acoustic piano, guitars, e-bass and contrabass,
drums, violin and bells, as well as electronic instruments. most
songs are with lyrics and have quite a dreamy and catchy
atmosphere with monumental and heroic parts. some songs even
spread a feeling of early 80ies independent music like Joy
