DEAD MAN'S HILL: LAKES OF SACRIFICE, CD
(Bugs Crawling Out of People)
Dead Man's Hill has been brewing and gaining strength in the dark
underground of the Belgium Death Industrial scene since 1998. Having
released four limited edition full length cdr albums and a split disc,
the time has at last come for Dead Man's Hill to reveal his full
potential. With Lakes of Sacrifice, his best cd release to date, Dead
Man's Hill makes his sound widely available to a North America audience,
striking out from Canadian label Bugs Crawling Out of People.
Dead Man's Hill represents the pinnacle of the Death Industrial scene,
offering a brilliant blend of militaristic drums, epic orchestrations,
and dark sensibilities. Tired of computer constructed sounds? Bored of
standard beats? Had enough of bands following simplistic formulas,
conforming themselves to be clones of the newest trend? Dead Man's Hill
defies these limitations, with a sound that is both classic and renewed;
a sound that crosses, combines, and surpasses the subgenres, resulting
in a tour de force of industrial, gothic, neo-classical and neo-folk.
Lakes of Sacrifice is a powerful entity with a horror movie soundtrack
feel; it is classic industrial in the old school way, yet will surprise
and reveal something new to the listening audience.

The disc features the incredibly powerful collaborative track "Sacrifice
of Subscription" with spoken word artist it-clings and a remix of
"Legions of Coldness" by Nick Gorman of Fractured. Mastered by famine.

swaths of sonic mayhem.

DUSA: LJUNG, LP
(AkA)
Ljung. Half lost images of landscapes and early memories, a haunting
nostalgia. Heaths and shrubbery. Dull audio collages of creaking, dim
ambiances coupled with folk sounds, foggy melodies and the humming of a
graybeard organ.

postcards. The first 103 copies comes with an additional vintage
(1900-1950) postcard.

PRICE: 12 € / $


GELSOMINA: NOSTALGHIA, CD
(MIR)
Finally Gelsomina's obliterative 'Nostalghia' is available in its
intended, appropriate format. This gem originally passed the world by as
a c-60 on the Australian label Smell The Stench. Now rescued from the
shackles of low-budget tape reproduction 'Nostalghia' sparkles in its
full glory, a full hour of seething harsh noise refinement which
mercilessly attacks from every angle. Gelsomina is already a recognised
name for this in the noise underground know, a series of tape/CDR
editions - not to mention some stellar releases for Freak Animal - all
leading to this essential, absolutely necessary assault of a release.
Make no mistakes, Gelsomina is where this genre is headed. This CD
reissue also comes equipped with a bonus track, a killer lengthy live
Gelsomina collaboration with Grunt. Packaged in over-sized A5 sleeves
with a multi-layered textured cover. Co-released with Cipher
Productions. Limited edition of 500 copies. [MIR]

PRICE: 10 € / $


HAERETICI 7o74: HEARD FLAYINGS, CD-R
(Some Place Else)
Heard Flayings is the second live-EP from Hæretici 7o74, the
dark-ambient ritual-musick band of Ovro and Niko Skorpio. Their previous
live-EP Haeretici, Schismatici, Excommunicati (SPECDR06037) received
stunningly positive reviews; Heard Flayings is even better, it succeeds
in capturing the magickal atmosphere created by the duo's powerful
performance at Club Depo in Riga, Latvia in May 2006. [Some Place Else]

PRICE: 6 € / $


BACK IN STOCK: HEATH YONAITES: RIM OF THE SUN, CD
(Triumvirate)
An immensely skilled, deep, and varied sonic journey through exceptional
experimental electronics and richly detailed field and environmental
recordings manipulated and reconfigured beyond the point of easy
recognition. Influenced by a wide range of inspirations, from the
immediacy of vaguely familiar yet unsettling terrestrial audio environs,
outwards towards the vast expanses of cosmology. [Triumvirate]

PRICE: 10 € / $


KAAOS IN ECCENTRIS / LEIF ELGGREN & LIDDIKOATIGHT, SPLIT 7"
(Some Place Else)
Kaaos in Eccentris - on this session Mockingwyrd, Ovro, Niko Skorpio and
Ibrahim Terzic - create an oddly trance-inducing, almost groovy piece
that limps forward powered by the combination of hypnotic bass and
crackling rhythms. Liddikoatight is a new Japanese band with Kouhei
Matsunaga among others. Leif Elggren, from Sweden, has worked with sound
and performance art since 1980 and has a long list of releases, books
and live-performances under his belt. For this record, Liddikoatight and
Leif Elggren collaborated via telepathy. Mix of the results form the
track Trapezoid. [Some Place Else]

PRICE: 5 € / $


KONAU: SPEECH FROM THE SHADOWS, CD
(Eibon)
A "hybrid" creature formed by SUBINTERIOR and NEW RISEN THRONE members.

structures scattered through the songs. The shadows are speaking....
[Eibon]

PRICE: 12 € / $


OBLIVION ENSEMBLE: SERAPHIM HALLUCINO, CD
(Malignant)
The music of Oblivion Ensemble remains as elusive and surreal as the
ever-shifting cast of musicians and performerswho participate,
knowingly, or unknowingly in their work.Founding members are John
Bergstrom and Brannon Hungness (aka Figure). Hungness is a virtuoso
experimentalguitarist and composer and a former member of the Glenn
Branca Ensemble. Bergstrom is a computer-musicgearhead and a film
composer with a classical music pedigree, and mastermind behind the
industrial-noise assembly Torse. Seraphim Hallucino is Oblivion
Ensemble’s fifth full-length release, the first since the virtual opera
“Nightmare:Sinistrotorse” (Complacency, 1995). At Seraphim Hallucino’s
source are strange, electro-acoustic improvisations of percussion,
trumpet, voice, synthesizers and guitar. These improvisations are
sculpted and sampled, twisted and turned, shaped into building and
diminishing moments, and, at times appearing alone, pure and unmodified.
Deeply imbedded in the music and fragmented lyrics are secrets,
intertwining themes, voices, and imprinted messages. All come together
to create an enormously complex, mercurial mix of surreal, dynamic and
dark sounds. To fully appreciate the scope and intricacies of Seraphim
Hallucino, headphones in a darkened room are highly recommended. “ The
band most likely to compose a fitting soundtrack for the end of the
world. ” Sorted magAZine.“ Visionary gothic pyschedelia. ” The Wire.“
the most undefinable gorgeous musical anything that I have ever
witnessed ... a beyond great performance, chilling and anxious. ” Best
of Times. In superb digipak, with artwork by Matt Vickerstaff of
darkwaveart. [Malignant]

OVRO: MOSAICK THE SERPENT / VIPERA AUREA, CD
(Some Place Else)
The new Ovro album consists of two distinct parts, each independent yet
linked to each other. Ovro started working on Mosaick the Serpent
already in late 2003. In the early stage it was to become an independent
EP, but the appearance of Gegendurchgangenzeit delayed its release.
Meanwhile, a companion EP started to take form, namely Vipera Aurea.
These two EPs, Mosaick and Vipera, are twins – independent yet entwined
like the snakes of a caduceus. They support and compliment each other
and form a new whole, a third being that contains both its makers and in
itself is something more. Vipera Aurea is ´coagula´ to Mosaick the
Serpent's ´solve´.
Some of this material has been performed on Ovro's live performances in
2005/06. Those lucky to have witnessed any of these will know the album
is calm yet intense, vocal-flavoured Dark Ambient mindscapes in the
highly regarded Ovrian style.

Mosaic the Serpent / Vipera Aurea features contributions from Massimo of
Black Sun Productions, Niko Skorpio and Mockingwyrd (Kaaos in Eccentris
etc).

Mosaick the Serpent / Vipera Aurea CD comes with two gorgeous 12-panel
foldout sleeves, full of lyrics, liner notes, photos and artwork all
created by Ovro herself. [Some Place Else]

PRICE: 11 € / $


SILENCE & STRENGHT: OPUS PARACELSUM, CD
(The Eastern Front)
Second full-length esoteric dark ambient/alchemical experimental opus
full of weird sounds composed by Silence & Strength. The album is
inspired by life and works of Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus
von Hohenheim, medieval Swiss physician, chemist, alchemist, one of the
fathers of modern medicine and rebellious thinker, developed his own
system of medicine and philosophy.

Limited to 1000 copies - Jewel case.

PRICE: 12 € / $


STEEL HOOK PROSTHESES: LIGHT REFLECTED FROM A COLD CUTTING TABLE, CD
(Pain Compliance)
More great death-industrial from this perhaps under rated project. .11
cuts of cold, very dark, clinical electronics influenced by medical
phobia and fetish, and the frailty of the human condition. From
catatonic atmpsheres to surgically sharp power electronics, Light
Reflected from a Cold Cutting Table has lots of deeply pulsating death
vibes and thick, writhing frequencies amidst a semblance of structure.
Cool, highly processed vocals too. Very good intensity and lots of
layers make for a very complex, entertaining listen, even as it
disturbs. The soundtrack to your next desperate stay in the infirmary.
Should find immediate appeal among fans of Ex.Order, Navicon, etc..
[Malignant]

PRICE: 8 € / $


V/A: REVELATION, CD
(Bugs Crawling Out of People)
14 tracks of twisted agony and misguided intentions. From evil
soundscapes to pounding oppressive beats, from the most reckless break
beats to torturous power electronics, revelation is a full assault on
the senses. Born from a melding of text, artwork, and music, it
originated as a short story written by bugs crawling out of people
founder Squid. This conceptual fusion served as the catalyst upon which
an impressive line-up of Industrial musicians focused their artistic
interpretation. The results are phenomenal. CD includes a massive 16
page booklet with complete story and original artwork.

Participants: prospero, dead man's hill, casual coincidence, NöRV,
pneumatic detach, legion ultra, sedarka, bETON bARRAGE, cold flesh
colony, scrap.edx, iszoloscope, asphalt leash, nitrous flesh.

PRICE: 8 € / $

questions.In the end,its all about 9|11,in memory or in myth.

BACK IN STOCK: YEN POX / TROUM: MNEMONIC INDUCTION, CD
(Malignant)
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]
