A Retrospective

[mp3 ] [ mp3 ] [ mp3 ]

Conversations About The Light - A Retrospective (Ominous Recordings)


A compilation of rare and previously unreleased tracks from this American project, with some past releases on Audio Savant and Cipher Productions and a collaboration with A Crown of Amaranth out on Eibon (as A Crown of Light). This collection of bleak drones colliding with harsh noise outbursts makes for some rather "uneasy easy listening" as the label puts it, and it's definitely worth hearing if you'd like to check out this overlooked artist. Limited to 150 copies.

(pro-printed CD-R, jewel case, $5.00, on sale)

Slaves Build in Series

D.N.D - Slaves Build in Series (Spatter)


From slow mind-numbing noise to full-speed blurred beats, D.N.D's sound is often close to some of the Japanese noise acts such as K2 and Masonna, but with less use of cut-ups.

(CD-R in DVD case, $8.00, on sale, last copy)

Zettaizetsumei

[mp3 ] [ mp3 ] [ mp3 ]

Dissecting Table - Zettaizetsumei (UPD)


Fourth DT release of 2005 so far. No guitars and very little drums on this one, but 4 long tracks of evolving glitchy electronics with autistic rhythms, some shouted vocals and violent spasms of digital noise. At times it sounds like DT channeled through a ZX Spectrum. Strange stuff indeed.
On a side note, Malignant Records better not rip off this description for their own catalog like they did with the last DT. Write your own, people.

(CD-R, jewel case, $12.50)

Live During War Crimes Vol. 2

[mp3 ] [ mp3 ] [ mp3 ]

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."

Impregnable Storm

[mp3 ] [ mp3 ]

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.

(pro-printed CD-R in folded poster sleeve, $9.00)

Teenage Hallucination: 1992-1999

[mp3 ] [ mp3 ] [ mp3 ]

John Wiese - Teenage Hallucination: 1992-1999 (PACrec)


Label info: "Teenage Hallucination is a compendium of Wiese's initial recordings as a teenager to his seminal early vinyl appearances. From pure analog bedroom havoc to intense cut-up harsh noise blasts, Wiese steadily developed his highly personal and specific style of extreme music while trying to survive the St. Louis experience.
52 tracks in nearly 80 minutes of the best material from his Catwoman 7", split LP with The Haters, split 5" with Panicsville, collaborative tracks with GX Jupitter-Larsen (The Haters) and Corydon Ronnau (Sissy Spacek), and featuring many completely unreleased and unheard tracks of isolated midwest basement obscurity.
Full liner notes by T.Mikawa (Incapacitants/ Hijokaidan) and Seymour Glass (Bananafish). Limited to 1,000 copies."

(CD, clear jewel case, $8.00, last copy)
