- Detailed list of additions -

Halo Manash - Language of Red Goats (Aural Hypnox)
New 2008 release from Aural Hypnox's spearhead project. "Language of Red Goats" sets aside the intricate textures of previous releases for a stripped-down and primal approach, relying mostly on reverberating gongs, bells and various acoustic sounds to form the backbone of this album. In lesser hands, this could be a recipe for dull listening, but the 3 long flowing tracks presented here make for an absorbing session of ritualistic music done right.
(CD, hand-made cardboard booklet, 12.00 €)

Maurizio Bianchi - Neuro Habitat (Abgurd)
Re-release of the 1998 EEs'T Records CD, which itself was a re-release of the 1982 LP of the same name with an extra track that was on the "Fur Ilse Koch" compilation on Susan Lawly. Old-school MB at his best.
(CD, jewel case, 11.00 €)

Inade - Aldebaran (Cold Spring)
Label info: "The masters of Black Ambient! "Aldebaran" is the black sun of the secret knowledge. This work focuses on the German Vril society myths of 'Aldebaran', from which universal spirituality is said to originate. One hour of immense walls of dark, brooding atmospherics, pulsating anthems of the universal power, mixed with themes of heritage and history. The ultimate document of deep and cavernous dark ambient."
(CD, clear jewel case, 13.00 €)

Sutcliffe Jugend - Pigdaddy (Cold Spring)
Label info: "The Sutcliffe Jugend filthy dirt-mess of an album that is Pigdaddy is now available on Cold Spring. Six stories of mind-fucking depravity. Pigdaddy contains some of the most fucked up, histrionic and downright bizarre vocals ever recorded. The music is created using the most basic sound sources. The overwhelming sense of moral decay makes this Sutcliffe Jugend's most original album yet. Pigdaddy is Beyond Perverse. Sexual transgression never sounded so dirty. Hear Pigdaddy and you will never feel clean again. Cover painting by Kevin Tomkins."
(CD, clear jewel case, 13.00 €)

Krepulec - New Radical (Beast of Prey)
Krepulec is a duo involving the head of the Beast of Prey label and the person behind Horologium. While they have released a number of splits and EPs, this is their first full-length album and it's the same blend of martial rhythms, neo-folk and subdued industrial influences as on their previous discs. A note-worthy aspect of this album is the recurrent use of accordions, which adds a nice nostalgic touch to its sound.
(CD, oversized sleeve held by a ribbon, 12.00 €)

Genetic Transmission - Ascetic (Beast of Prey)
New album from this absurdly overlooked Polish industrial pioneer, whose previous work includes many self-releases on Die Schone Blumen Musik Werk and activities in projects such as Ładne Kwiatki, Godzilla and Hated Bruit Kollectiv. "Ascetic" is just as abstract and demanding as one would expect, with its brittle electro-acoustic textures slithering and scraping through three 20-min tracks. An acquired taste for some, but those interested in Niellerade Fallibilisthorstar and modern futurism shouldn't ignore this one.
(CD, circular cardboard packaging, 12.00 €)

Desolation Zone - L'Homme Machine (Beast of Prey)
"L'Homme Machine" is named after a book by French philosopher Julien Offray de La Mettrie, the founder of a radical form of materialism he named mechanism. The six tracks presented here live up to this creed by delivering a solid 38 minutes of cadenced factory noises, mechanical rhythms and instructions barked over the factory's PA systems, like a more electronic and rhythmical version of some Linija Mass or Genetic Transmission tracks. Great stuff.
(CD, circular metal case with insert, black latex gloves and scalpel blade, 13.00 €)

Ishai Adar - Beaufort Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Ak Duck)
Original soundtrack to "Beaufort", the 2007 Berlinale Film Festival Silver Bear winner for best director. "Beaufort" tells the story of the last group of IDF soldiers stationed in the South Lebanon outpost of the same name, prior to the evacuation of Israeli forces from the country in 2000.
Its soundtrack was composed by Israeli electronic artist Ishai Adar, who was previously involved in the experimental pop band "The Top-Hat Carriers". This is Adar's second motion picture soundtrack, and it's an ominous and pensive combination of processed digital sounds, warm ambient drones and sedated melodies. The press release suggests comparisons to Philip Jack, Biosphere & William Basinski, but this comes recommended to anyone looking for a great example of a subtle contemporary electronic score.
(CD, clear jewel case, 11.00 €)

Hollowing & Maor Appelbaum - Collaborating Torture (Topheth Prophet / Heart & Crossbone)
One monolithic 54 min track of spectral ambience courtesy of Israeli musician Maor Appelbaum (Poochlatz, Vultures) and the late Matt Gibney (AKA Hollowing, So I Had To Shoot Him and owner of the Rectrix label). Those of you who picked up his collaboration with Chaos as Shelter which we released back in 2005 should definitely look into this.
(CD, clear jewel case, 11.00 €)

Barzel - Born to Destroy Amalek (Topheth Prophet)
Second album from Barzel, fueled as always by the cause of militant Zionism. Whereas the first album felt like a historical overview of the topic (complete with sampled excerpts from documentaries and political speeches), "Born to Destroy Amalek" is much more aggressive, confrontational and personal, like stepping into the mind of a Hebron settler clutching his M-16. The emphasis on more ferocious vocals and heavy power electronics drives this point across, with samples of threats of violence becoming vengeful mantras. Beneath the Biblical references of the titles, the antagonism is real. This is the sound of unforgiving siege mentality, for those who can stomach it.
(CD, digisleeve, 11.00 €)

Various Artists - Stalin And Mao Listen To Us (Triangle Records)
Sino-Russian noise compilation. Russians: Monopolka, Maaaa, Natural Obscenity in Sexual Experiments, Tydish, Melody. Chinese: Torturing Nurse, Hong Qike, Noiser Luo, Ronez, Li Jianhong.
(CD-R in folded B&W poster sleeve, 5.00 €)

Voltage - Lucifer Over Ptz (Triangle Records)
Label info: "[...] Intense industrial dark-ambient, creating an atmosphere of sadness and endless winter. Journey trough misty and foggy landscapes. Sounds of gears, that works in the Abyss of coldness and ice. Final chapter in history of this karelian project. The End. Pro-printed tape, pressed-paper cover sealed tape. 50 copies."
(Tape, 5.00 €)

Burial Hex - Wall of Zombies (Triangle Records)
Label info: "Chtonic ritual industrial/power-electronics from graveland USA. Analog synthesizers, organ, metal, earth, insect, voice, piano, manipulated with tapes, feedback... horror electronics! ltd. to 50 copies."
(Tape, 5.00 €)

Novasak - Ignominy (Triangle Records)
Strained and sputtering electronic noise from Colorado, USA. Delivered with a satisfying low-end crunch and some metal clanging thrown in the mix.
(CD-R in foil paper sleeve, 5.00 €)

Acid Hexen - Orkiestra Woiskowa (Triangle Records)
Lo-fi power electronics / noise with heavily processed vocals and screeching feedback. Features two covers of popular Soviet songs from the Second World War.
(CD-R in color sleeve, 5.00 €)
