New arrivals in the BSAH distribution on-line store (5.11.2004)
CAUL: LIGHT FROM MANY LAMPS, CD
(Malignant Records)
15 tracks of elaborate orchestral beauty and infinite sadness.
Spiritual in nature, but with an omnipotent dark presence, Light
From Many Lamps is not only Caul's most accomplished and mature
release to date, but also the most melancholy and introspective.
Intricate symphonic melodies and ominous ambient textures blend
together harmoniously as a chorus of celestial voices and ornate
instrumentation provide a backdrop of loneliness and lavish despair.

DEATHPILE: G.R., CD
(Force of Nature / Hospital Productions)
After a long silence Deathpile returns with their first official
full length release focusing on the Green River Murders in Seattle
from the early 1980ís. Lyrics are written from the chronological
perspective of the killer, exploring key events and balancing
truculent physical situations and aberrant psychological terrain,
with terse delivery. Nine tracks of dense and rushing power
electronics and sado-ambient atmospheres. Fierce, verging on
hysterical vocals and well placed and researched audio samples
stand above thick and violent synth beds. By far Deathpile's most
cohesive, strong, and obsessive work fine turned with stark violent
force and ritual atmosphere. Not to be missed for fans of sadistic
power electronics! Ten page fold out lyrics insert, and mastering
by Scott Hull (Agoraphobic Nosebleed/Pig destroyer/ ex- Anal Cunt/
Japanese Torture Comedy Hour). A joint label release between Hospital
Productions and Force Of Nature Productions. [Force of Nature]

he has once again risen to the throne and stands strong as a force
to be reckoned with. SEALED VOID takes the listener drifting past
dying suns, through black holes and beyond, to a place where the
universe takes human form. [Force of Nature]

THE LAW[RAH] COLLECTIVE: VESUVIUS, LP
(Force of Nature)
The two years of silence following the release of his debut-cd in 2001
were very well spent by the [law-rah] collective.In april of this year
the cd 'isolation' was released on www.darkambient.net and not one
month later force of nature is proud to present a 12" vinyl with two
new tracks by the dutch collective. after the already sold-out skincrime
album, 'vesuvius' is the second vinyl release on force of nature and
the first in a series, where each release will be describing a different
natural disaster. both tracks are around fifteen minutes in length and
created with analog sound sources only. while the first side of the 12"
describes the expulsion of volcanic gasses - solfataras - poisoning the
air, the second side sketches a picture of Pompeii, herculaneum, oplonti
and stabiae, each hidden under 10 to 75 feet of tephra (ashes). two days
of volcanic activity killed over 3300 people. the design and packaging of
'Vesuvius' is explosive itself; slightly transparent golden vinyl
resembling the power of the magma hidden deep inside the earth. An ash
and smoke colored cover insert designed by dominick fernow of hospital
productions not only gives a brief history of the volcano; it also acts
as a guardian protecting the gold of an once so prosperous city which is
no more. [Force of Nature]
This record is limited to 300 copies.
PRICE: 12 €

REUTOFF: REUTRAUM II, 7"
(Kaos Kontrol)
Fifth instalment in the seven-part series presenting various locations
in Reutov, the city of origin for this acclaimed Russian post industrial
outfit. Launching off with the ceaseless hum and rhythm of heavy machinery
grinding onwards as alarm sounds form into hysterical choirs complementing
the slowly proceeding pounding of the machines. As an aftermath, the second
piece bears a calmer approach with pulsating drones and loops yet retaining
a profoundly ominous nature. After proving themselves to master a wide
variety of styles within the post industrial genre, Reutoff present here a
rather traditional blend of dark ambient industrial - nonetheless remaining
at least equally strong as their previous efforts. Transparent green vinyl
in beautiful full colour sleeve with special lamination finish. [Kaos
Kontrol]
PRICE: 5 €

BACK IN STOCK! YEN POX / TROUM: MNEMONIC INDUCTION, CD
(Malignant Records)
Given their separate history as masters of droning atmospherics, and their
mutual admiration for each others work, a collaboration seemed only
natural.
Now, after years of discussion, Mnemonic Induction has finally
materialized,
resulting (not surprisingly) in one of the greatest, most mind bending
works
of dark ambient ever. A 60 plus minute exploration through nebulous, grey
areas of the mind…expansive drones and spiraling vortex’ of sound that
hover
near the shadowy, distorted zones of a nightmare before ascending to
mountainous heights and dense, billowing climaxes. This has a remarkable,
liquidous feel that unfolds in a fluid, intense nature…patterns converge
and
meld seamlessly as layers of sound are added and subtracted; thundering
lows
rise up from the abyss, and spiral into the stratosphere, only to dissipate
into a vacuumous black hole. The effect is something that plays on the
mind,
recalling moments before complete wakefulness exists…a tattered and
restless
dream state where images & thoughts flicker and appear from a fog. Designed
by Stephen O’Malley, housed in an attractive eight panel digipak with
thoughtful text. [Malignant]
PRICE: 12 €
