Maurizio Bianchi & Telepherique - The House Of Mourning (Radiotarab / Cold Current)
New collaboration release from these almost excessively prolific projects, this being the second one to be put out on CD if I'm not mistaken. The title pretty much indicates what the theme is here, and the mood is generally somber and meditative. On a side-note, the Greek Rembetica music and chants sampled by Telepherique on certain tracks sound amazingly close to some traditional Egyptian music.

Megaptera - You Will Never Survive This Nightmare (Live Bait Recording Foundation)
Re-release of an old tape on Slaughter Productions along with live recordings from a May 2001 performance in London (where, on a side-note, yours truly performed for the first time as Sedaye Marg).

Melanchoholics - A Single Act Of Carelessness (MNDR / Deafborn)
Label info: "Building on the experimentations from their debut CD (with a mix of field-recordings, guitars, electronically manipulated sounds and spoken word fragments), Melanchoholics walk new paths by exploring several acoustic instruments (such as cello and accordion) and add various sources for drones to their gloomy mélange." Recommended for those who enjoy Magwheels, Aidan Baker and Troum.

Messer Chups - Vamp Babes Upgrade Version 2004 (Solnze Records)
Revamped version of their sold-out 2000 release, with rerecorded tracks that also gain much from the added presence of Lydia Kavina's mastery of the theremin. This is one for the groovy ghouls, surfin' skeletons and lounge-lovin' werewolves out there. Also includes two great bonus videos for "Go, Satan, Go!" and "Super Megera".
(CD, cardboard sleeve, out of stock)
Messer Chups - Hyena Safari (Solnze Records)
The band's 8th album, released in late 2005. This time they're going at it with a slightly more instrumental approach, emphasizing the adrenaline-fueled spy-surf rock that is at the band's heart. Don't panic, the sounds effects and samples are still there. While I do personally miss Lydia Kavina's theremin, it is hard not to be swayed by the sexy stylings and great riffs of tracks such as "Hexe Chips" and "Charade?". As usual, the CD includes bonus videos whose 60's pulp horror esthetics perfectly match up with the music.

Messer Chups - Black Black Magic (Solnze Records)
Label info: "This Russian masterpiece twists you outta this world. Black Black Magic is Messer Chups most musical release. 50’s B-Movie soundtracks, the guitar at times reminiscent of Ricky King, Sci-Fi Horror ala Ed Wood, the erotique of Russ Meyer – all in perfect combination with Lydia Kavina’s (niece of Lev Termen, Theremin inventor) Theremin to mutate a sound so “retro”, that it sounds like the future.
The video for ‘Go Satan Go’ features Russian Playmate of the year Natalya Simakova, guaranteeing even more kitsch."

Miguel A. Ruiz - Grosor (Monochrome Vision)
Label info: "This is the new, remastered version of classic material recorded back in 80s, next to postindustrial aesthetics priority in electronic music. Rigorous and austere, ascetic but dynamic, this music rearranges everyday being into mind-challenging imagination, reserving the leading parts for the habitual processes and domestic objects.
From the deep underground of Spanish industrial music, it comes to be rediscovered after 15 years."

Militia - Everything is One (Tactical Recordings)
2005 release from this eco-anarchist percussive unit, released 5 years after "The Black Flag Hoisted". This time round the tracks include an arsenal of instruments aside from the signature percussions, namely violins, accordions, horns and clarinets played by guest musicians. These additions and the "full" production make for somewhat denser arrangements than what Militia is known for, but it's all good and brings to mind "Pax Britannica"-era Test Dept. Not to be missed.
(CD, oversized fold-out sleeve, $23.50, last copy)

ML - Everyone Looks like Somebody else (n5md)
Choppy beats, bittersweet melodies and twitchy sample work make this one a nice cross of IDM and almost video-game music. Similar to Twine, Spark and assorted bleep-makers.
(CD, clear jewel-case, 11.00 € - to be repriced in USD, last copy)

Mlehst - An Old Broom Knows All The Dirty Corners (Belief Recordings)
First CD release from this long-active UK-based noise artist who's put out tapes, CD-Rs and vinyl on Self-Abuse, Nihilist and his own label, Belief Recordings. The sounds here range from spastic cut-up outbursts à la Runzelstirn & Gurgelstock to distressed sine tones.
