Naked Intruder - Iteration III (Mile 329)
The much-delayed third full-length release from Naked Intruder is finally out, and it delivers the goods. And what goods indeed: 8-bit melodies, metal percussions and atonal piano and organ passages fuse into an album of industrial circus music meets 1980s action movie soundtrack. Challenging and rewarding at the same time, this iteration is not a mere repetition but a reaffirmation of a world where creepy clowns, armored bank robbers and cubic insects evolve. The Yars will have their revenge.
(CD-R in plastic case, $13.00, last copy)

Naked Intruder - The Last Vestige (Mile 329)
Last part of the Prime Directives 3" trilogy, each of which is dedicated to a specific sonic format of yesteryears. Four anthems of 5-channel goodness all recorded with the Nintendo Entertainment System's 2A03 sound chip. Limited quantities.
(3" CD-R packaged inside a NES cartridge, out of stock)

Dissecting Table - Tranquilizer (MNDR)
Latest release from Ichiro Tsuji, this time on German label MNDR. 3 long tracks of filthy guitar noise, grunting and fuzz that each last over 11 minutes. The closest release would be "Groping in the Dark", but this is much slower and heavier.
(CD-R in a paper-sleeve, out of stock)
Hated Bruit Kollektiv - Aktion One (New Nihilism)
Hated Bruit Kollektiv is the name for the ephemeral collaborative project between Rafal Sadej (Moan) and Tomasz Twardawa (Genetic Transmission), two of Poland's better artists operating in the post-industrial domain. This release captures their live performance at the 2007 Bez Kontroli Festival, and it's presented here in the shape of 37-min stream-of-consciousness maelstrom of whirring, clanging and heavily textured noise. Not the "harsh noise" pedal mashing variety that is, this is much more atmospheric and shifting in nature, with certain moments bringing to mind the more subdued material they release under their own main projects.
(Pro-printed CD-R in folded A2 poster sleeve, $9.00)

Government Alpha - Impregnable Storm (New Nihilism)
Vicious harsh noise from Yasutoshi Yoshida, AKA Government Alpha and also head of the Xerxes label which has hosted many unusual noise and bizarro-pop experiments (Billboard Head Soup, Unacknowledged Pop-Song Collection Vol. 666). Suitably disorientating.

Somnivore & Kivelä - Maelström (New Old Sentinel)
Free-form dark ambient from Finland that wouldn't be out of place on the Aural Hypnox roster, even if this does have slightly more industrial than purely ambient undertones.
The mid-range frequencies require a decent pair of headphones to be fully appreciated and the lack of track markers might initially put one off from sitting down for the full 47 minutes, but Maelström is a finely crafted piece of work that renews its sound palette regularly enough to keep your attention throughout its duration. A great pick for those late-night listening sessions.

Vestigial - Aeon (New Sun Recordings)
Highly promising debut EP from this new Italian dark ambient project, aesthetically not too far away from the likes of Inade and Predominance. 4 tracks of sinister cosmic howls and drones. Mastered by Andreas Wahnmann (Turbund Sturmwerk / First Law / Loki Foundation) at SecretLab.

Hinageshi Bondage - Pariisi Vuonna 1959 (Nihil Market)
Strange and often sparse experimental noise from Finland. Turntable sounds, high-end tones and rhythmic loops are used on the noisier tracks, while some interludes are provided in the shape of bass-heavy drones.

Mortuor - Nekro / Schizo (Nil By Mouth)
New side-project from the founder of Subklinik and Torturecide, both of which have released material on Slaughter Productions. 20 minutes of poisonous death industrial and bleak power electronics.
(3" CD-R, oversized pro-printed sleeve, out of stock)
[ death industrial ]
Lvnvs - Lvnvs (Old Europa Cafe)
Rumbling old-school industrial from members of Italian projects Teatro Satanico and DSIP. This CD-R gathers a selection from two tape releases put out in 1993 and 1996 on OEC. Some of it has a certain vibe not too dissimilar from Le Syndicat. Pro-printed CD-R + booklet + inlay.
(CD-R, jewel case, $14.00, last copy)
