Dove Yellow Swans - Live During War Crimes Vol. 2 (Release the Bats)
Label info: "The second volume, this time a collection of darker and more sinister live recordings taken from their tour in Europe early 2006. 42 black minutes of creepy soundscapes painting a depressive picture of a world going down in dust and ashes. The 5 songs all has a weird desperate and dense apocalyptic feel to them, making this a haunting and very bleak experience. Trashy dark rumblings and total coldness. Again very well-edited stuff by Pete Swanson, works more like a full proper album than just a collection of random recordings."
(CD, Dual Plover full color sleeve, $15.00)

Iugula Thor / Sshe Retina Stimulants - Performance Ranges (Self Abuse)
The Sshe Retina Stimulants side is a great piece of buzzing noise with spastic synth sounds trying to fight their way through it. Iugula Thor's track is along the lines of his contribution to "The Sounds of Sadism" compilation, and comes off as an a cappella power electronics routine.

Sshe Retina Stimulants - Ketsueki No Eiga (Self Abuse)
Brain-frying frequencies manipulated with savage precision by Paolo Bandera, also known for his works as Sigillum S. Where others merely content themselves with always-in-the-red walls of noise, Sshe Retina Stimulants have mastered the capacity of building tension and delivering the way it matters.

Mattias Frisk - En Dag I Väntan På Livet (Self-released)
Mattias Frisk is a graphic artist whose collaboration with fellow Swedes Altar of Flies and Gjalp was released not too long ago on Nil By Mouth. This 29-min debut solo release is a wonderfully strange collage of sputtering noise, acoustic pop music and bird songs. Overall, this is an imaginative piece of work that definitely warrants keeping an eye out his future releases. The presentation is equally unusual, as the CD-R comes inside a sealed envelope addressed to Mattias Frisk with a hand-written letter in Swedish and a color insert.

Mattias Frisk - Ett Liv I Väntan På Döden (Self-released)
Second part of what is announced as a trilogy of releases by Swedish artist Mattias Frisk, whose eerie and colorful paintings and collages are just as attention-worthy as his musical output.
Exploring the themes of "time, death and apathy", this second chapter shifts to slower and more dispiriting sounds, with gloomy piano melodies and ghostly drones pierced by brittle noise shards. Solemn and somber like it should be, this definitely comes highly recommended. Packaged like the first volume in an envelope with a hand-written letter in Swedish.

Lustmord vs. Metal Beast - Lustmord vs. Metal Beast (Side Effects)
Label info: "Derived from a joint performance by Lustmord and Metal Beast broadcast live on KUCI 89.9, Orange County, California, June 20 1997. The broadcast was put together at short notice with very little preparation, and as a result is mostly improvised, and intentionally chaotic. Manipulated further and reconstructed for this release."
