Bastard Noise / Igor Krutogolov / Chaos as Shelter - The Geometry of Soul (Topheth Prophet)


An unusual lesson in spiritual mathematics, bringing together the particularities of all three projects in a demanding yet rewarding experience of ritualistic music. Repeated mantras, robotic drones, resonating bells and blasts of controlled noise are used skillfully throughout the 5 tracks of this release.

(CD in cardboard sleeve, out of stock)

Lietterschpich - I Cum Blood In The Think Tank (Topheth Prophet)


Label info: "The eight-piece group of Lietterschpich (Hebrew for liter of cum) has been boiling down foul language, obscene noise, primitive rituals and perplexing visual propaganda to their core since 2004. Comprised of local veterans of the Israeli post-punk, industrial and electronica scenes, they quickly gained cult status in the Israeli underground. They've released "Quasi" A 3" black cdr in 2005, before calling it a night and taking a year break. They will be back soon to antagonize the cultivated majority that got away last time."

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.

Grundik and Slava - Frogs (Topheth Prophet / Auris Media)


The second part of the "Fauna" series by this project, the first of which was released by Stateart. Thematically and sonically centered around frogs and their environment, this release results from a collaboration with singer Victoria Hanna and also features contributions from Israeli artists Vadim Gusis (Chaos as Shelter) and Igor Krutogolov (Igor18). The album is a pleasant, new-age tinged stroll through the world of our croaking fellows. Co-released with Auris Media.

Hollowing & Maor Appelbaum - Collaborating Torture (Topheth Prophet / Heart & Crossbone)
