The first track on Merzbow's latest opus was recorded at Tin Pan Alley studios,
London, on 20th April 2008 - the day after his momentous performance at ULU.
Akita created an astounding and very unique 20-minute track, playing freestyle
drums over his trademark noise. The final 2 tracks were created at Munemi House
in Tokyo. Another fine example of why Merzbow is the undisputed King of Japanese
Noise! 58 minutes in total.

Deadwood | Ramblack CD (CSR104CD) £10 / £11 / £12




Shipping: Now
The follow up to Deadwood's successful 2005 album "8 19" (CSR53CD). Over the
past 3 years this Swedish artist has been toiling away, creating a new black
ambient / death noise masterpiece and "Ramblack" is the result. This analogue
beast of an album layers the tonal prayers of demons and the distorted cries of
angels, sickness and depravity. True Death Electronics. The soundtrack to your
end. "Ramblack" features guest vocals from Norwegian Black Metal legend Maniac
(Skitliv, ex-Mayhem), whose vocal approach on the song 'Forakt' shows the full
range of his capacity. Truly one of the most sick and twisted pieces of sonic
art ever recorded. Enjoy the disease!

MP3 | MP3 | Deadwood










Deadwood | Ramblack LP (CSR104LP)
£14 / £16 / £18




Shipping: 15th November
LP version is limited to 300 copies on marbled vinyl with 4 tracks from the main

A CHALLENGE OF HONOUR - 'No Way Out' CD (Vrihaspati / Steinklang) - £10.50 /
£11.50 / £12.50



The brand new album from A Challenge Of Honour! Since their last album "Seven
Samurai" was released 4 years ago and in these past years many things changed in
ACOH. With "No Way Out" you will hear a completely new side of ACOH. The album
would be best described as a pure Neofolk 'n' Pop album with many Neoclassical
and some Martial elements. Peter learned to play several acoustic instruments in
the last years and some guest musicians also helped to create the band's new
style. Most songs are with lyrics and have quite a dreamy and catchy atmosphere
with monumental and heroic parts. Some songs even spread a feeling of early 80s
independent music like Joy Division, the Fall, New Model Army. Digipak.

• All A Challenge Of Honour Titles





DIETER MÜH / MNEM - 'Atomyriades' CD (Cipher Productions) - £10.50 / £11.50 /
£12.50



The UK's Dieter Müh (Dave Uden alone this time) manipulates Finland's MNEM.
"Solid collaborative effort between these known, but still some what obscure
groups, delivering 8 tracks of dark, abstract atmospheres, with an array of
layered, slightly organic sounds and processed manipulations; unknown insectile
noises (of a larger variety I might add), sub-aquatic, droney washes, and deep
rhythmic pulsations, with a dash of industrial clutter thrown in. Quite active
and constantly in motion, allowing this to work very well as background music,
or with headphones to pick up the multiple nuances and ultra-hypnotic qualities.
I'm not quite sure what I was expecting, but I like this a lot more than I
thought I would" (Malignant). Ltd x 500 copies in a digipak. Australian import.

DISSECTING TABLE / ERRARE HUMANUM EST - 'Howling Silence' CD (Psych.KG) - £10 /
£11 / £12



32+ minutes (1 track) from Japanese Noise act Dissecting Table and 40+ minutes
(4 tracks) from German noise act Errare Humanum Est ("To Err Is Human"). Ltd x
300 hand-numbered copies in a square DVD case with insert. Psych.KG is a
sublabel of Multi National Disaster Records.

• All Dissecting Table Titles





FALKENSTEIN - 'Urdarbrunnen' CD (Heimatfolk / Steinklang) - £10.50 / £11.50 /
£12.50



Falkenstein's self produced debut-album "Heiliger Wald" gained a lot of praise
in Folk music press. Their 2nd album "Urdarbrunnen" is now released by the
Steinklang Neofolk sub-label Heimatfolk. "Urdarbrunnen" is again a perfecly
played, strong and dreamingly beautiful album with a rich, varied
instrumentation, even more dense and powerful than the debut album. The musical
range lasts from acoustic ballads over Martial Folk songs to dark fairie tales
about mysticism, paganism and natural rites in the Alpine regions. If
Falkenstein were around 40 years earlier, they would stand in line with bands
like early Steeleye Span, Magna Carta and Pentangle. Digipak with 16-page
booklet.

• All Falkenstein Titles





HERBST9 - 'The Gods Are Small Birds, But I Am The Falcon' CD (Loki Foundation) -
£11 / £12 / £13



The all new album of Herbst9 is a step further into the depths of the Assyrian
and Asian mythologies, using authentic audio and visual fragments of sacrifices,
lamentations, prayers and ancient rituals. The result is a deep labyrinth of
sounds with meditative percussions, ghostly vocal fragments and singings which
melts with detailed and multi-layered tones of various traditional instruments.
All this is constructed around a core of dark and ongoing floating drones
creating an atmosphere of true archaic music which has been developed by Herbst9
to perfection. This soundtrack is the secrecy from the deep and hidden places of
the sacred earth transcending us beyond the real world to the inner realm of
ourselves. The CD is presented in 6-panel digipak.

• All Herbst9 Titles





HYPNOZ - 'Breath Of Earth' CD (Zhelezobeton) - £9 / £10 / £11



Hypnoz is a project of Dmitry Zubov, a Moscow musician, who endowed lovers of
post-industrial music with such names as Hum and Staruha Mha. Since 1993 Hypnoz
has released one CD on Russian label Insofar Vapour Bulk, which gathered tracks
from different periods and a couple of very limited editions. The basis of most
of the tracks for "Breath of Earth" was recorded by Dmitry together with Evgeny
Voronovsky (Cisfinitum) during their joint night psychedelic sessions, and this
is evidently felt in their mood. Stylistically this can be called tranquil
electronic ambient with a remarkable experimental touch. Slowly twisting sound
helixes, drawing inside the astral subspaces, pulsating rhythms, cosmic sounds
of old analogue synths. Outsize package. Ltd x 500 copies.





JÄNNERWEIN - 'Abendläuten' CD (Heimatfolk / Steinklang) - £10.50 / £11.50 /
£12.50



Jännerwein is a brilliant new Folkband from the breathtaking Salzburg
countryside around the holy mount Untersberg, the myserious home of Sturmpercht.
They play their very own style; a mix of old school Folkmusic and Neofolk with
some Martial rhythms, Alpine-Folk and even some medieval elements. Jännerwein
use many traditional alpine instruments, but they also use some electronics,
creating a warm and heimish atmosphere in all their songs. Jännerwein are
solemn with their ancient, sad lyrics about holy (often christian) rituals and
mysteries from the central european Alps. But the feeling you get from listening
to their tunes is similar to the sad songs of the Perchten. For fans of
Sturmpercht! Digipak.





KARNA - 'Forever In Darkness' CD (Possession Productions) - £10.50 / £11.50 /
£12.50



The much anticipated follow up to 2007's "The Haunted (Age Of Destruction)".
With "Forever In Darkness" the undisputed leaders of the Russian Black Ambient
scene have created an album that is more gloomier and terrifying than before. A
unique, dark and haunting soundtrack "to listen to only in absolute darkness!".
File next to MZ.412 or Kerovnian! Digipak. Russian import.

• All Karna Titles





KK NULL - 'Akumu' CD (Vital) - £11.50 / £12.50 / £13.50



Japanese experimental music legend KK Null tests his own limits onto the
darkness and focuses all his artistic skills on creating a personal cinematic
audio nightmare. "Akumu" is like being caught in a spider web that sticks and
creps to your skin, there is no escape... "Akumu" is a truly imaginative and
terrifying electronic album that gives us a new and unique edge on sound master
Kazuyuki Kishinos' universe. A dark masterpiece! Comes in a superb 6-panel
digipak with artwork by Salt (Ant-Zen).

• All KK Null Titles





KK NULL - 'Galactic Tornado' CD (Quasi Pop) - £11 / £12 / £13



Deep, dense and dynamic electronic music. An unconditional, intuitive and highly
emotional audio-work combining synthetic sounds from various synths and
electronic machines with acoustic audio signals. Kazuyuki Kishino explores (from
his own point of view) some artistic values of “psychedelic electronic
sound” that were widly presented on space / electronic / kraut albums from
70s. Recommended for listeners who prefer the contemporary experimental sound in
its highest quality and for fans of “retro spacey” sound from the groups
such as Popol Vuh, Cluster or even Tangerine Dream. Ltd x 500 copies in a
6-panel digipak with silver lettering and spot varnishing.

• All KK Null Titles





M. KOURIE - 'The Dreams Of M. Kourie' CD (Chrome Peeler) - £10 / £11 / £12



Solo debut by Californian Nathan Berlinguette of 5/5/2000, The Human Quena
Orchestra, and Creation Is Crucifixion. 'The Dreams Of...' sets a course for the
heart of a black hole, and takes the scenic sonic route getting there. This is
the sound of stargazing, a blackened landscape of warm shimmer that
imperceptibly shifts and contorts, each new shape even more abstract and more
black than the shape before, tracing a minimal path that simultaneously drifts
beneath the sea, through subterranean caverns, amidst the vacuum of space and
through the impossibility of alternate universes. Soft rumbles, warm chordal
swells, glistening abstract melodies, drifting gauzy shimmer, all falling into
one another and making the journey special. Packaged in a simple folded black
sleeve, printed with gold foil. Features guest appearances by Tim Green (The
Fucking Champs) and Ryan Unks (Creation Is Crucifixion, Circadia).





PSYCHIC TV - 'Mr. Alien Brain Vs The Skinwalkers' CD + DVD (Sweet Nothing) -
£16 / £17 / £18



Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle) and her reactivated Psychic TV aka
"PTV3" release their second album. Most of these tracks were recorded live for
NPR's "World Cafe" programme in Philadelphia, May 2008 or at Galapagos Arts
Space, Brooklyn, New York 2007. This initial pressing includes an exclusive DVD
boasting 30 minutes of unseen Psychic TV / PTV3 live, on the road and in the
studio by filmmaker Marie Losier and other surprises. For this project Psychic
TV / PTV3 were: Lady Jaye Breyer P-Orridge, Edley ODowd, Hanna Haddix, Marrkus
Aurelius Cirkus Maximus Fabulous Perrson, David XXX Maxxx, Alice Genese and
Genesis Breyer P-Orridge. NO overdubs, no remixing. What you hear is what the
band played. Includes "I Am Making A Mirror", Lady Jaye's song / poem for
Genesis previously only available on the vinyl version of "Hell Is
Invisible...", the previously unreleased mix of "New York Story" by Michael Gira
(Angels of Light, Swans), live recordings

"The Alien Brain" and "I Love You, I Know". This album is lovingly dedicated to
Lady Jaye Breyer P-Orridge: 1969-2007.

TRAVIS RYAN / DEATH BY A THOUSAND CUTS - 'Split' CD (Chrome Peeler) - £10 /
£11 / £12



Split release from two US acts: Travis Ryan (Cattle Decapitation, 5/5/2000) and
Death By A Thousand Cuts. Travis Ryan's four tracks open the disc with an edgy,
paranoid ambience that mixes environmental buzzes and electronic hum with blurry
theremin melodies and hushed buzzsaw tones, evoking the faint but discernible
hum of electricity you feel when standing at the edge of an urban landscape in
the middle of the night. Death By A Thousand Cut's nightmarish free electronic
designs are conjured from noxious bass sinewaves and cloudy keyboard drones,
curling upwards out of metal-on-metal carnage and blasts of laser-beam
effects-pedal violence, and the music becomes strangely beautiful, especially
with the cosmic Troum-meets-Bastard Noise insectoid frequencies of final track
"Approach Of The Black Claw". Ltd x 300 copies in cut & paste artwork (similar
to RRRecords' Pure Series).





WERKRAUM - 'Early Love Music' 2 x LP (Ahnstern / Steinklang) - £18 / £20 /
£22



14 progressive and traditional, psychedelic and medieval folk songs and chants
of early love. 14 dreamy memories of the merry blue days from early times. With
"Early Love Music" the German Folk musician Axel Frank sets a surpassing
milestone for the new generation of Folk artists. A year after releasing his
quite Martial / Neoclassical oriented debut on Cold Spring (CSR49CD), Axel got
heavily involved with Alpine Folk heroes Sturmpercht and found his love in late
60s / early 70s Psych / Prog Folk music, thus changing his own direction, with
the highly successful MCD 'Kristalle'. The complex arrangements and large
variety of instruments even remind of The Incredible String Band and some early
Acid-Folk bands. "Early Love Music" brings 2 cover versions: Donovan's ingenious
fairytale "Jabberwocky" and traditional folk hit "The Blacksmith". Features
collaborations with Changes, Lady Morphia and Sturmpercht. Ltd x 500 copies in a
stunning gatefold sleeve with
lyric sheet and bonus track, not on the CD version.

ARCANA - 'Raspail' CD (Kalinkaland) - £11 / £12 / £13

Arcana's approach to Neoclassical and symphonic ethno-ambient could well be
defined in the meaning of the word "Arcana" itself: specialised knowledge of
something generally considered a mystery or a secret. On their 6th album,
"Raspail", the powerfully moving music of this Swedish quintet creates a magical
atmosphere which weaves together lush elements familiar to Arcana fans old and
new. Mystery, silence and revealed secrets are interconnected within the 10 new
songs. Lush electronics mix with acoustic guitar, serene piano and intricate
oriental percussions. Warm vocals return to the focus, with obvious comparisons
to Dead Can Dance: a heavenly blend of baritone and soprano courtesy of Peter
Bjärgö and Ann-Mari Thim. In fact, never before has an Arcana album contained
so many vocals giving "Raspail" an emotional touch, a deeper thoughtfulness, a
profound feeling of mysterious vision and a sense of secrets.






CRISIS - 'Holocaust Hymns' CD (Apop Records) - £10.50 / £11.50 / £12.50

Crisis came into existence in the late '70s amidst the British hardcore punk
movement. They took the same energy that came from the youthful, raw anger of
the Oi! movement, but with restrained lyrical phrasing and strict rhythms.
Members include Douglas P. and Tony Wakeford who would later expand upon some of
the Crisis material for their Neofolk group DEATH IN JUNE. Wakeford later went
on to form SOL INVICTUS, whilst Luke Rendall and Lester Jones would later find
involvement in Theatre Of Hate and Sex Gang Children, respectively. This is
Crisis' entire remastered discography from 1978-1980, complete with a 12 page
booklet featuring exclusive photos from Douglas P.'s private archives.






GRUNTSPLATTER - 'The Aberrant Laboratory' CD (Dark Vinyl) - £10.50 / £11.50 /
£12.50

The fourth release from Gruntsplatter builds a more transcendent atmosphere,
weaving together a sustained darkness that conceals the grimy implements of the
taboo nestled in the din. The brooding ambience and cutting frequencies combine
with odd melody and an enveloping, fluid mix that lead you through the dirty
laboratories and hovels of forbidden science where genius and atrocity meet on
level ground. The familiar components of subtle detail, amorphous depth, and
seething moods of Gruntsplatter are intact and further evolved here to allow the
listeners thoughts to wander. Comparable to Blackhouse, Hunting Lodge, Throbbing
Gristle, SPK, Lustmord etc.






HIS DIVINE GRACE - 'Eurydice' CD (Dark Vinyl) - £10.50 / £11.50 / £12.50

"Universum" is the last studio album and musical testament of T.H. Thiel
(founder of Ordo Catharsis Templi), who died in April 2003, only few days after
putting the final touches to this impressive album. Like only few ambient
artists, Hoedh succeed to awake a feeling of longing and melancholy within every
listener and at the same time Hoedh create a feeling of inner silence: a
spiritual drowning into your soul. "Universum" is released as official In
Memoriam album in collaboration with Ordo Catharsis Templi.






HOEDH - 'Universum' CD (Dark Vinyl) - £10.50 / £11.50 / £12.50

"Universum" is the last studio album and musical testament of T.H. Thiel
(founder of Ordo Catharsis Templi), who died in April 2003, only few days after
putting the final touches to this impressive album. Like only few ambient
artists, Hoedh succeed to awake a feeling of longing and melancholy within every
listener and at the same time Hoedh create a feeling of inner silence: a
spiritual drowning into your soul. "Universum" is released as official In
Memoriam album in collaboration with Ordo Catharsis Templi.






INADE - 'The Crackling Of The Anonymous' CD (Loki Foundation) - £11 / £12 /
£13

This dark and hallucinatory masterwork, is constructed via the never heard
utterances of the void, while tapping into the psyche of the impossible. A
stunning dark ambient release that defies all logic because it creates its own!
Gorgeous 6-panel digipak by the masters of Dark ambience!! A must-have for fans
of Lustmord!






IONOSPHERE & LAND:FIRE - 'Of Mind And Of Abyss' 12" (Loki Foundation)
- £10 / £12 / £14

After their well received full length works released via Tesco and Loki both
German units now dig deeper into their cosmos of sound with this split EP. A
brilliant slice of sonicscape-ambient, like a thick black stream of plasma
crawling from places we are not yet ready to go. Places where thoughts and
desires, fears and pain manifest in reality. Majestic waves of droning sound and
pulsations overlayed by whispering vocal samples, cavernous resonances and dark
analogue machine noises. A deep shivering cosmic ambient work beyond the edge of
the imaginable. Limited edition of 475 copies.






KARNA - 'Diabolic (Soundtrack For My Nightmares)' CD (Eternal Pride Productions
/
Possession Productions) - £10.50 / £11.50 / £12.50

One of the longest standing and most legendary industrial ambient bands from
Russia, Karna perform brilliant Satanic Black Ambient (very much inspired by the
first MZ.412 albums) filled with cold night feelings, spreading darkness and
ghostly soundscapes. Truly chilling desolation that will drag you into the
endless abyss... Russian import.






LAND:FIRE - 'Gone' LP (Loki Foundation) - £12 / £14 / £16

The debut release from the Herbst9 project! Massive drones and sinister melodies
rise out from the inside of a dark and bleak ground while crushing rhythms and
unreal vocal shreds echoing through a wide spectrum of sounds and effects. The
perfect sound journey through devastated landscapes. Ltd x 750 copies.






MELEK-THA - 'Gloriam Demondi' CD (Dark Vinyl) - £10.50 / £11.50 / £12.50

Following in the obscure steps of 'Evil Is Too Strong', the French apocalyptic
war machine is back with more supreme symphonic and occult death music, more
memorable destructive rhythms and entangled mentally insane orchestrations.
Melek-Tha stands for extremely monumental, orchestral and bombastic Black
Industrial, with symphonic chants.






RAPOON & BIRDS OF TIN - 'Monomyth' CD (Manifold) - £10.50 / £11.50 / £12.50

The driving percussion of Rapoon (Robin Storey, ex-Zoviet France) is woven
perfectly with the light, introspective drifts of Birds Of Tin. “Monomyth”
manages to sound both tribal and futuristic all at once. A flight over haunted,
surreal byways, drifting ambient landscapes, the joining point of all spiritual
elements and ideas. This record is what all collaborations try to achieve: the
best techniques of two artists, melded into something beyond either.






TURBUND STURMWERK - 'Turbund Sturmwerk' CD (Loki Foundation) - £11 / £12 /
£13

Reissue of this eponymous album (1995 Loki, 1998 Cold Spring), with 6 stormy
compositions - beautiful and poignant - linking the subtle concept with
innovative sounds and arrangements. This masterpiece is a milestone of the
post-industrial culture and affected the scene world-wide. The recordings were
digitally revised and enhanced, so that they radiate now in a clean, insidiously
pristine new light. Turbund Sturmwerk polarise calculated, set gauges and create
music like a functional text - acoustic information as sophisticated reading.
This introductory work is the often referenced catalyst within the Turbund
Sturmwerk catalogue, bent on changing the expectations of the listeners,
altering the norm and creating a manifesto for things to come. Digipak with
booklet.
