CHIMEHOURS new single + video 'Run' out now! |
"Run was one of the last tracks we wrote for the album. By then we knew we'd got a solid set of songs we were happy with, and with lots of light and shade and dynamic where we wanted it, so with Run we just kind of let loose. Our friend Frank played some wild little flute motifs for us and I backed this up with some recorder squeals, then imagined a kind of forest campfire scene with people dancing around in some kind of earthy, tribal stramash. Jon's horn sounds and deep thumpy beats really set the tone and gave it the momentum, and we came along for the ride" (Beck).

COIL - 'Backwards' - OUT 23rd JAN
2LP 'FIRE RED' + CD £35 Adv. | 2LP 'COLD WHITE' + CD £30 Adv. | 2LP BLACK + CD £28 Adv.
   
We mark a decade since we first released Coil's landmark album 'Backwards', with a special 10 year anniversary vinyl reissue. All editions come in a gatefold matt-laminate sleeve with silver detail.
ALL ORDERS DIRECT FROM THE COLD SPRING STORE / BANDCAMP INCLUDE:
THE FIRST EVER RELEASE OF THE FULL 'BACKWARDS DEMOS' (10-track CD), POSTER AND ARTCARD.
After the ground-breaking release of 1990's "Love's Secret Domain" album, Coil were not dormant; the main project was "Backwards", which was started in 1992, updated considerably between 1993 and 1995, and transferred in 1996 to New Orleans, where it was finished in the magic of the Nothing studios of Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails). The album saw the fruition of Jhonn Balance's recent vocal coaching, producing haunting, passionate vocals, while reaching new heights.
23 years after its initiation, these tracks have been beautifully preserved by Danny Hyde and are finally available in highest quality audio. Differing substantially from the later, remixed incarnation, "The New Backwards" (2008), "Backwards" contains the original versions of Coil's much-loved tracks; 'A Cold Cell' and 'Fire Of The Mind', which have appeared on various compilations over the years, and are now presented as originally intended.

CHIMEHOURS - 'Underneath The Earth'
CD £9.50 Adv. / LP Black £18 Adv. | LP Ltd Earth Green £21 Adv. - OUT 24th OCT
 
"Underneath The Earth" is the debut album from Chimehours; a hauntological music project for the dislocated present day. Taking inspiration from Max Porter's novel "Lanny", the album digs into themes of nature, myth and community, with an edge of folk-horror.
Drones, drums and gritty guitars are juxtaposed with woodwind, strings and ethereal song. Written and produced between Derbyshire, London and Margate, the album takes musical influence from the likes of Liz Fraser, Broadcast, Beth Gibbons, Bibio and Jóhann Jóhannsson, and atmospheric cues from The Wickerman, The Fog, and Enys Men.
Chimehours is a collaboration between Beck Goldsmith and Jon Dix. The pair have previously performed in bands together and composed music for award-winning film and television. They conjured up this foray into cinematic, horror-flecked contemporary-folk to explore their love of the supernatural and the other-than-human.
Chimehours raid the vaults of 70's British cinema and trad folk soundscapes to riff on contemporary anxieties and ecological yearning. They conjured up this foray into cinematic, horror-flecked contemporary-folk to explore their love of the supernatural and the other-than-human. The result is a collection of all things earthy, exquisite and grotesque.

LLYN Y CWN - 'Megaliths In Dub'
CD £11.50 . OUT NOW!
  
A deep reworking of Llyn Y Cwn's "Megaliths" (2024). The original was a profound dark ambient exploration of the sacred resonance embedded within stone circles; "Megaliths In Dub" is the echo beneath the surface, the unheard rhythm that has always been there.
The megaliths stand - timeless, unyielding. Their histories stretch beyond recorded memory, their presence imbued with silent narratives of the land. "Megaliths" sought to channel this ancient energy into pure sound. Yet no history exists without its counterpart - no creation without its shadow.
On "Megaliths In Dub", suppressed tempos emerge, pulsing with the primal force of forgotten rites. Guitar invocations from the live rituals weave through the fabric of the album, distorting and reshaping the familiar, exquisite dark ambient Llyn Y Cwn has become renowned for.
It is a sonic metamorphosis - a spectral reflection of the megalithic presence.
The stones have been disturbed.
• Presented in a 6-panel digipak with breathtaking photography by the artist.

VARIOUS ARTISTS - 'Decoder'
CD £12 - OUT NOW!
 
Released on standalone CD for the first time in 33 years, this now-complete edition of the ground-breaking, legendary soundtrack is finally here.
A cult classic of sci-fi dystopia, "Decoder" (1984) saw EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN's members working alongside GENESIS P-ORRIDGE (THROBBING GRISTLE / PSYCHIC TV) and WILLIAM S. BURROUGHS. It's one of the strangest (and most prescient) films of the decade. The film was made in Hamburg and Berlin, and directed by Klaus Maeck 'Muscha' (who directed several punk films).
The lead roles are played by Christiane F and FM Einheit from Neubauten, who also contributed to the film's score. Genesis P-Orridge, the kingpin of the English industrial scene, also appears as a priest of the Black Noise faith. Author William S. Burroughs portrays an insurrectionist salesman of audio equipment (and contributes spoken word to the soundtrack), and American cult actor Bill Rice plays a detective.
SOFT CELL contributed their classic 'Seedy Films', while MATT JOHNSON from THE THE wrote a frenetic, deformed song for the film that is both fantastic and painful to listen to, and EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN's 'Compressed Metal' is sublime. Dave Ball (SOFT CELL), Jon Caffery and Genesis P-Orridge composed the rest of the soundtrack.
A futuristic film, and a joyous application of William S. Burroughs' "The Electronic Revolution", which proposes a seditious and rather poetic method of subverting the masses and inciting them to rise up against the forces of order.
MUZAK IS MORE THAN MUSIC.
• CD in matt-laminate digipak with 10-page foldout booklet.

1. Genesis P-Orridge & Dave Ball 'Muzak For Frogs' (3:23)

ILLUSTRIOUS - 'Mesmerine 111™'
2 x CD **SIGNED** £17.50. - OUT NOW!
 
Illustrious is MARTYN WARE (HEAVEN 17, B.E.F., ex-THE HUMAN LEAGUE), and CHARLES STOOKE.
Illustrious Company presents... Mesmerine 111™. This is a 3D soundscape based on / inspired by the frequency 111Hz, which has been historically and scientifically proven to induce a trance-like state.
Findings of MRI scans suggest that at exactly 111hz, the brain switches off the prefrontal cortex, deactivating the language centre, and temporarily switches from left to right-sided dominance, which is responsible for intuition, creativity, holistic processing, inducing a state of meditation or a trance.
These findings have been confirmed by archeo-acousticians in studies regarding ancient and Neolithic shamanistic burial rituals around the world. The title is a take on the use of sound as pharmacology (Mesmerine is the name of an imaginary drug). ...
The soundscape of the ambient Dose 1 is 50 minutes in duration - long enough to induce a true trance-like state. Dose 2 continues with a calming and unctuous vocal mix performed by Charles Stooke. Bringing to mind HAL 9000 (2001: A Space Odyssey), the sound is simultaneously reassuring and disquieting.
The world premiere of the 3D sound composition was at the FOCUS Art Fair in New York, Spring 2025.
Safe when used as directed. Recommended optimal dosage: 30-60 minutes at (less than) 70dB, delivered by Illustrious Labs 3D audioscape system or binaural through your own headphones.
Side effects may include:
Contra-indications (in less than 10% of cases)
Loss of consciousness
Unresponsiveness
Low blood pressure
Hypnogogic meta-trance
Inertia
Extreme calm
Hypnotic hypersensitivity
Hyperacuity
Visual hallucinations
• 2CD in matt-laminate gatefol digisleeve, presented in a slipcase with sticker hand-signed by Martyn Ware.

Unavailable for almost 30 years in its own right, this collection from the Cold Spring archive has been remastered / repackaged with new art. This classic album exists as a document of the soundtrack work PSYCHIC TV created for the many films and videos of Derek Jarman. Another demonstration of why PSYCHIC TV were one of the most important groups in the world.
The titular track, 'Prayer For Derek', is intended as an invocationary prayer, based on Tibetan rituals; a collage of sounds including field recordings of the lulling waves running aground on the shingle beach opposite Jarman's Prospect Cottage in Dungeness, Kent alongside bird song, crying babies, and massed ritualised chants to aid the late film director in his after-life journeys.
Other tracks feature elongated drones, washes of dissonance, melancholic guitar chime, evocative piano scoring, Burroughs cut-ups, gothic chants, and familiar snarling dogs.
• CD in matt digipak with 8-page fold-out booklet, with detailed liner notes by Genesis P-Orridge (1997); anecdotes and background facts for completeness.

An aural exploration of the solar system using data from NASA's probes.
On the latest album by Sonologyst, raw data from radio waves, electromagnetic fields, and plasma fluctuations, utilising data sonification files provided by NASA, are transformed into a haunting soundscape, unveiling the ambient music of planets, solar winds, and the cosmic beyond.
As the newest addition to Sonologyst's series of sonic documentaries, this work deepens his exploration of the sonic spectrum, converting cosmic phenomena into immersive auditory experiences.
• Double CD in a matt-finish gatefold ecopak, with a bonus disc of the raw source material from NASA's probes.
All purchases direct from Cold Spring will receive a small pack of original stamps from the golden age of the space race - one original Soviet stamp celebrating the Venera 14 probe to Venus, and a further random stamp from anywhere in the world again celebrating Mankind's missions into space. All stamps are authentic and original and can be neatly stored away within the package.

 ARE MUNDAL - 'Songs For The Anechoic Chamber' LP (Telesterion Records) - £20
The latest album from the always-intriguing Norwegian dark ambient project. Well crafted, atmospheric soundscapes on the industrial side - macabre dark ambient, industrial sound collages, sometimes rhythmic and droning, sometimes experimental. Are Mundal has written songs for albums such as Enslaved's "Isa" and Immortal's "All Shall Fall", but is probably best known for his photography of Fantoft stave church on the day it burnt down in 1992. Ltd x 100 hand-numbered copies, beautifully presented in a gatefold cover with two inserts, all featuring Mundal's striking collage artwork. |

 FRAG - 'Frag Deconstructed Genetic Transmission' CD (Zoharum) - £11.50
FRAG is Stephen Āh Burroughs (Head Of David, Tunnels Of Āh, Comicide 24). It is under the FRAG alias that the Birmingham musician creates more radical, experimental forms of music, which fit into the aesthetics of pure industrial, approaching electroacoustics, plunderphonics and noise, notably collaborating with Maurizio Bianchi, and Nocturnal Emissions. Some time ago, he came across recordings by Tomasz Twardawa - a Polish musician, known for his work with GENETIC TRANSMISSION, GODZILLA, and LADNE KWIATKI - who sadly passed away in 2020. The publications he discovered made such a huge impression on him that he decided to make his own reinterpretation of some of them, using source material composed, recorded and mixed by GENETIC TRANSMISSION releases 1995-2014. The effect of these deconstructions was recorded in the form of this album. Ltd x 250 copies in a 6-panel ecopak. |
 GENETIC TRANSMISSION - 'My Inspiration Is You' CD (Zoharum) - £11.50
This is the 12th chapter in the GENETIC TRANSMISSION Archive series, titled "My Inspiration Is You". The material was originally released in 2004 on a CDR in a strictly limited edition, in a special bandage packaging, made by Tomasz Twardawa. The effect was so interesting that one of the copies ended up on display at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona. "My Inspiration Is You" is an intense, massive album, created (as the musician himself wrote about it) from fury, pain and hatred. Industrial / Electroacoustic / Noise compositions with samples from David Lynch's Eraserhead. Ltd x 200 copies in a gatefold ecopak, with art based on photos by Maciej Mutwil (Dead Factory). |
 GYDJA & EMME YA - 'Apsinthion - Deluxe Edition' CD (Sirius Limited Esoterica) - £15
Babalonian explorations of the nightside. A reissue of the 2015 esoteric collaboration from Colombia's Emme Ya and New Zealand's Gydja, in a new deluxe edition. Nine ritual dark ambient and drone compositions based in diverse deep atmospheres, percussive sounds and voices. Dedicated to U.S. actress, artist, magickian and occultist Marjorie Cameron (1922-1995), a contemporary of Aleister Crowley and Jack Parsons, who regarded herself as a living incarnation of the Thelemic goddess Babalon. 73 mins. Mastered by Frédéric Arbour. Ltd x 111 copies (CD proper) presented in an A5-size hardback book cover with black and white illustrations, heavily inspired by Cameron's ephemeral figures. Also included are two deck cards for meditation while listening. Read the full story of the release here. |
 HVAST - 'Chwasty Polskie' CD (Zoharum) - £11.50
"Chwasty Polskie" ("Polish weeds") is the debut album by HVAST. Based on airy, electronic ambient backdrops, a post-rock structure with a psychedelic tinge, and a deeply trance-inspired rhythm section, these long, illustrative meditations, sometimes hypnotizing, sometimes scattering, also blend 80's synthetic sounds, and experimental elements. "Five compositions, each titled after a specific weed, each possessing different effects and meanings.... a hallucinogenic musical creation with a psychoactive pedigree, where we find vast spaces of psychedelia underpinned by rhythmic vibrations and echoes of post-rock. Dreamlike evocations rooted in the breaths of nature. A magnificent and monumental sense of sonic exteriorisation. Dose it generously; it really works!" (Anxious Magazine). The trio consists of: Michal Glowacki (ex-So Slow, NVC, Latajace Piesci), Arkadiusz Lerch (So Slow, Czern, NVC, Sanity Control), and Grzegorz Chudzik (ex-Rigor Mortiss, Maszyny | Motyle, NVC) with guests Aleksandra Buda, Bartek Lesniewski, and Marcin Loks. Ltd x 300 copies in a 6-panel digipak. |
 LUBIN - 'Gaza' CD (Zoharum) - £11.50
Lubin's second album pulsates with an intense, almost industrial techno rhythm with a punk twist. This raw, trance sound energy becomes a moving background for authentic recordings woven into the songs - fragments of reports from the riots, voices of protesters and moving testimonies of Gaza's inhabitants. Lubin does not take a clear side in this complex dispute, but with deep concern and anger looks at the effects of military and political actions that led to the unprecedented destruction of Gaza. The album is an expression of protest against violent solutions and deep disgust at the scale of destruction, which deprived hundreds of thousands of people of homes, access to drinking water and hope for the future. A moving lament over the fall of the city and the dramatic fate of its inhabitants. "Gaza" is more than just a music album; it is a bold and moving artistic intervention, the effects of which provoke reflection, forcing us to confront the brutal reality of the conflict in the Middle East. Through his own music and authentic records from that region, Lubin creates a moving image of human suffering and an appeal for attention to the consequences of violence. Recommended for followers of Muslimgauze. Ltd x 300 copies in a 6-panel ecopak.

 MERZBOW - 'Merzphysics' 10 x CD Boxset (Old Europa Cafe) - £83
First released in 2012 on Japanese label Youth Inc. as a 10-CD Box and long sold out, "Merzphysics" has now been given the remaster / reissue / new artwork treatment after 13 years. The "Merzphysics" set features previously unreleased recordings from 1993-1995, focusing on pure analogue noise made before the introduction of synthesizers and other electronic instruments.
The noise here is described as being linked to grindcore, having a sense of speed, and was recorded live to cassette.
"Merzphysics" might be considered to be a sequel to "Merzbient", which also featured unreleased vintage cassette recordings.
As with some of the tracks on "Merzbient", the titles on "Merzphysics" are taken from cassette brands like:
AXIA PS by Fujifilm; GPX, Metal CD's and UD by Maxell; CDix, GIG and UX by Sony.
Multi-layered pure noise that pretty much defines the genre.
The pleasure in records like "Merzphysics" is to get amongst the layers to tease out the sounds, to squeeze below the levels of aggression to find its beating heart. A supreme masterwork by the master of Japanoise!
Ltd x 300 copies in a special clamshell card box, containing each CD in its own individually-printed sleeve. |
 MERZBOW - 'Sporangium' CD (Old Europa Cafe) - £12
A sporangium (from Ancient Greek sporá 'seed' and angeîon 'vessel') is an enclosure in which spores are formed. It can be composed of a single cell or can be multicellular. Virtually all plants, fungi, and many other groups form sporangia at some point in their life cycle. Sporangia can produce spores by mitosis, but in land plants and many fungi, sporangia produce genetically distinct haploid spores by meiosis. "Sporangium" is the brand new album of "Merzsoniks" from the Japanese Noise master, made using handmade instruments / contact microphones / various fuzz / distortion / glitch pedals / synthesizer... and many other soft & hard-ware to be discovered... The travel to far spaces and micro worlds is still to be continued! Ltd x 300 copies in a digipak. |
 MICHAEL CASHMORE - 'The Ninth Circle Beyond The Sun' CD (Lumberton Trading Company) - £11.50
The latest album from Michael Cashmore (Nature And Organisation, and the main guitarist and composer for CURRENT 93 from 1990 until around 2006) collects ten pieces which, as with "Until The End Of Vibration" (2024), draw from that magical place where crepuscular and moody soundtrack work converges with the kind of synth lines Tangerine Dream made a name for themselves with. Along the way, there are piano-led melodic swells, a couple of surprisingly serrated edges and sparingly used percussion veering between the bombastic and more emotionally charged. Between each of the compositions, there's an overarching sense of sadness or resignation while carefully woven refrains point to the simple beauty one derives from staring at a night sky or the sun's rise or setting over a serene sea apparently untouched by man.
Sophisticated yet unostentatious, this is music that's bold, minimal and utterly deserving of the attention of the film that will doubtlessly play out in your head as you lock yourself in to everything it promises. Digipak. |
 RAPOON & PAS MUSIQUE - 'Knowledge Has No Enemies But The Ignorance' 2 x CD (Zoharum) - £16
A new joint release from the British band RAPOON (Robin Storey, Reformed Faction, ex-Zoviet France) and American band PAS MUSIQUE (led by Robert Pepper), who have collaborated several times over the last decade, including their union as Old Castle with Shaun Sandor (Promute). "Knowledge Has No Enemies But The Ignorance" features thirteen lengthy compositions, totalling over two hours, filled with dark ambient structures, a psychedelic-drone aura, and numerous improvised fragments. It seems the two gentlemen have found a common language, one based on years of experience in experimental music and revealing their shared roots and inspirations, which can undoubtedly be found on this album. Ltd x 300 copies in a 6-panel ecopak. |
 THE NINE LANDS OF OBLIVION - 'Black Chamber Music' CD (Self-Released) - £11.50
Debut album from this Dungeon Synth act hailing from Lisbon, made using an old Yamaha PSR keyboard and a Boss digital recorder, nothing else. A medieval fever dream through haunted chambers and old crypts. "Whispers resound through the blackened halls of forgotten dominions, where the Nine Lands of Oblivion lie shrouded in endless shadow. This chamber of sound unveils the music of silence and ruin, a procession of echoes carried through desolate corridors, cloaked in arcane dust and dim candlelight. Here, within the void, solemn melodies unravel like lost incantations, tracing the boundaries between kingdoms that no longer breathe and realms that were never meant to be". Limited independent release (CD-proper). |
 UMU TIAMAT - 'Masmahhu Umu - Deluxe Edition' CD (Sirius Limited Esoterica) - £15
A reissue of the 2018 collaborative album by Edgar Kerval (EMME YA), Michael W. Ford (Hexentanz, Psychonaut 75, Ordo Tyrannis, Akhkharu) and Asenath Mason (Posthuman Tantra), in a new deluxe edition. A suggestive voyage through pure ritual musik, encrypted through diverse ritual sessions between the 2017 & 2018. The main instruments were used as analogue repetitive drone sounds able to awaken instinctive primal sounds that together give us the suggestive and perceptive elements for the creations of each one of the 7 portals created as devotional temples, of adorations and venerations of Umu Tiamat - Musmahhu Umu.
Ltd x 111 copies (CD proper) presented in an A5-size hardback book cover with white on black illustrations. Also included are three deck cards for meditation while listening.

 ᚾᛟᚢ ᛁᛁ // ᚦᛟᚦ ᚷᛁ (Nordvargr + Trepaneringsritualen) - 'Gamma Ænigma' CD (Old Europa Cafe) - £13
The duo of Henrik Nordvargr Björkk (MZ.412, Folkstorm, Pouppée Fabrikk, Anima Nostra) and Thomas Ekelund (Trepaneringsritualen, Dead Letters Spell Out Dead Words) returns with their third chapter in that special trilogy. A full range of Dark, Northern, Ritual Sounds. A deep dive into spirituality and darkness, spitting more vitriol into the face of the world. Not to be confused with their main collaborative project Det Kätterska Förbund (Cold Spring), this entity performs a pure ritualistic form of music, if you could call it that. These ritual sounds are once again to be considered a living curse, one that spirals out of control and gains more momentum for every time it is recited / played. Let the atmosphere guide you to places you would never find on your own, and open up to the formulae of submission and madness, a deep and obscured abyss of unknown pleasure and pains. After Hair and Teeth, the sounds and artwork for this third chapter are devoted to Finger/Nails. As with the first two chapters, this CD also comes in a DVD-sized digipak. |
 ATRAX MORGUE - 'Reel To Reel' 2 x CD (Old Europa Cafe) - £17.50
Honouring Italian Death Industrial legend Atrax Morgue's enduring impact on the musical landscape, the sounds on this double CD (which was included in the "Atrax Morgue's Mörder Machine" boxset in 2016), are the very last recordings by Marco Corbelli, found on a couple of reels in his studio after his untimely death in 2007. For these recordings Marco used an old Korg MS20 synthesizer which produced a continuous background noise together with the audio signal - such noise is clearly audible in the recordings. During the editing phase this hiss was kept as an integral part of the work, as a sort of last message / greeting from Marco. Ciao Marco!" Ltd x 300 copies in a digisleeve. |
 BRUME - 'Syncronicity & Wandering Current' CD (Zoharum) - £11.50
A new concept album by BRUME, based on a compact, closed composition, outlined in a way typical of Christan Renou's work. This suite, lasting almost 60 minutes, is divided into 3 parts: 1. 'I Know You Well', 2. 'Tout peut faire tout', and 3. 'Iridium', all performed with particular attention to detail. Numerous loops, borrowings and cut-up figures seem to create a sophisticated, intuitively readable and exceptionally coherent message. With each successively sounding fragment, a narrative is realized in real time, intended to provoke the listener into multiple, in-depth and multi-layered reinterpretations. Thus, the creator invites his listener to co-create a work that is not completely closed, but with each listening allows for multiple, infinitely different realizations. For these recordings Christian Renou invited several excellent musicians to make them, including: Jonathan Grieve (Hastings Of Malawi), Pat' Blanch (void/tape), and Patrick Mazaltarim (trumpet / sax). Ltd x 300 copies in 6-panel ecopak based on the collages by French artist Françoise Duvivier. |
 DEMONOLOGISTS / UTARM - 'Demonologists / Utarm' CD (Fall Of Nature) - £11
Split release from two nihilistic acts: Indiana-based Blackened Noise / Horror Electronics duo DEMONOLOGISTS, and Norwegian Drone / Noise / Black Ambient one-man outfit UTARM. Harmful, anxiety inducing frequencies and blackened trepidation from both artists. Originally scheduled for a 2013 release, this accursed thing has finally crawled into existence. A must have release for fans of Gnaw Their Tongues! Ltd x 300 copies. |
 DIRK SERRIES - 'Zonal Disturbances II' CD (Zoharum) - £11.50
Dirk Serries (Fear Falls Burning, Vidna Obmana) explores sonic terrains on electric guitar with a motherboard of analogue pedals. The 4 lengthy tracks (ranging from 14-22 mins) on "Zonal Disturbances II" give signs of a new signature style of ambience Dirk is constructing - organic, brooding and eerie. The album still showcases the artist's fondness for minimalism and slow repetitive clusters of sound while tying connections with his roots in industrial and experimental music. Foremost he continues, after four decades in the scene, to display his artistry in creating provocative, unique and genre-bending ambient music. Dirk Serries is a musical force to reckon with and to be finally rewarded for his wilful and unique voice in an ever increasing superficial music industry. "This is an amazing, semi-ambient excursion from Mr. Serries. At once caustic and experimental, Dirk deviates into a sonic world of sublimely drone-scaped melancholy contained within an ambient substructure that resonates not so subtle undertones of deliberate aural chaos. The sounds that Serries pries from his guitar are astounding" (Ambient Landscape). Ltd x 300 copies in a 6-panel ecopak.

 FOLKSTORM - 'Manifesting As Atrax Morgue' CD (Old Europa Cafe) - £12
"I hate covers. I have never heard a cover version that outshines the original recording. Thus, it is a mystery why I did this. Being me it makes no sense. I have always enjoyed Marco Corbelli's work and while all of it is not to my liking there is always something unmistakably special about it. I really got sucked in by his Mörder Machine project, but the last few years I have been listening a lot more to Atrax Morgue. Sometimes when I was a bit out of ideas in the studio I would try out some simple drones or synth patches and they kept reminding me of Marco's work. His music is often quite stripped down, simple and improvised and that was what I was getting too. This led to trying to recreate some of my favorite tracks of his. I was not close to Marco Corbelli, but we were in contact occasionally, trading albums. He liked my music and I liked his. I hope he would have liked my interpretations of his work. Tempus fugit" (Nordvargr). Ltd x 300 copies in a digipak. |
 FUNERARY CALL - 'Beckoning At The Black' CD (Fall Of Nature) - £11
Funerary Call is one of the main outlets for Harlow MacFarlane (Sistrenatus). Channelling energy and inspiration from chthonic elements, Beckoning At The Black celebrates the exploration of man’s darker half: the shadow-self... An aural descent into the underworld of unconscious and subconscious dimensions. Challenging the listener to gaze into the mirror reversed and walk the paths below. Remastered, reworked and including bonus material not featured on the original release (The Fossil Dungeon, 2004). Crushing black orchestral ambience with ritual elements. |
 FUNERARY CALL - 'The Black Root' CD (Fall Of Nature) - £11
Sepulchral, brooding Black Ambient from one of the most enigmatic and spectral entities the genre has produced. The sound that Funerary Call employs on "The Black Root" is somewhere between the ambience of Inade and the more industrial sounds of Stratvm Terror. "The Black Root" saw its first edition as a very limited vinyl release in 2004 (Fluttering Dragon, Ltd x 333 copies), and is now presented completely remastered on CD with new artwork. Harlow MacFarlane went on to form Sistrenatus. Highly recommended!! |
 GRUNTSPLATTER - 'Dragging The Rivers Of Sleep' CD (Fall Of Nature) - £11
Gruntsplatter was born in 1994 as a malleable creature that congealed somewhere in the grey area between Death Industrial, Noise and Dark Ambient. With "Dragging The Rivers Of Sleep", Gruntsplatter awoke from a 5-year slumber, ahead of the new album "Dowsing In The Cancer Lands" (Crionic Mind). This is a collection of rare tracks recorded 1999-2015: from impossible to find compilations, to alternative versions, plus four previously unreleased tracks. From the mid 90's to the mid 2000's, Gruntsplatter remained as one of the most original and consistent outfits in dystopian Industrial / Noise / Dark Ambient circles with his particular brand of dread-inducing textures, menacing slow-shifting dynamics and eerie droning soundscapes. Expertly mastered by Thomas Garrison (Control). Limited Edition (unspecified). |
 LARMO - 'Alarm' CD (Zoharum) - £11.50
Larmo is the project of Miroslaw Matyasik (C.H. District). Following a limited cassette and collaborations with Gash Faith, Dystopian Control, and Mnich, Larmo presents their debut full-length album. "Alarm" is 12 heavy electronic tracks, based on massive sound, mechanical rhythms characteristic of the industrial genre, with elements of rhythmic noise, illbient, techno and bass music. Thanks to the freedom with which Mirek draws from a wide stylistic spectrum, he extracts those elements that allow him to fully use the potential and create structures and sounds characteristic of a strong and very suggestive message: Larmo Means Noise. Guests on the album: Gosia (Next Victim, Skorup/a), IHS (Biesy, Glitchangel), Paula (Moira, Brudne, Czyny, End Forest), and Pachu (Hostia). The whole thing is completed with a remix by Monya. Ltd x 300 copies in a 6-panel digipak. |
 MERZBOW - 'Pulse Demon' CD (Old Europa Cafe) - £13
"Pulse Demon" is probably the most iconic, most representative and best known album in the Japanoise scene and MERZBOW's discography. This is the edge of music and sound, here you enter a new dimension made of powerful noise, using the EMS synthesizer. Recorded in 1995 and first released in 1996 on the US label Relapse, and further reissued on different formats. However, this is first time in which album has been completely remastered by Masami Akita for the CD format, all from the original DAT tapes. An important addition here is an exclusive, *previously-unreleased* bonus track taken from the Pulse Demon recording session DATs. Comes in a 6-panel metallic digisleeve presenting the lavish original and very psychedelic holographic waves artwork. Needless to say, essential! |

 SUBKLINIK - 'Musik For Dekomposition' CD (Fall Of Nature) - £11
Subklinik is Chad Davis (Profane Grace, Mortuor, Torturecide). Since 1996, Subklinik has continued to create some of the darkest Death Industrial / necro-soundscapes in existence. Enter "Musik For Dekomposition", the latest full length from Subklinik, featuring six torturous expressions that convey a foreboding atmosphere abundant with feelings of death, and isolation, manifested through a sonic vortex of analogue filth and decay. Old-school industrial with some tracks reminding of SPK's Information Overload Unit. "Lo-fi, unsettling, and ultra grim, this immediately takes me back to the early-mid-90's and the heyday of the Slaughter Productions cassette scene" (Malignant). |
 T.O.M.B. - 'Total Occultic Mechanical Blasphemy II' CD (Fall Of Nature) - £11
Recollecting selected fragments from the past of one of underground music's most mysterious and obscure forces, "Total Occultic Mechanical Blasphemy II" serves as an archival release of leading Black Noise artist T.O.M.B.. Resonating with a pulsing necrotic ambience and saturated in graveyard ritual noise, this is only for the most extreme of tastes.

 TERROR CELL UNIT - 'The Data Industrial Complex II: The Mark Of The Beast' CD (Old Europa Cafe) - £12
Uncompromising Power-Electronics from Oakland / USA. These guys are real practitioners of cultural terrorism: "You better find God before God finds you...". Terror Cell Unit are Mackenzie Chami (God Is War / Koufar / Crown Of Cerberus / Sutekh Hexen) and Samuel Torres (Crawl Of Time / Sutekh Hexen / Miscreant). "Now fully ensnared in these times of Artificial Intelligence and fabricated facts supporting self-serving confirmation bias, the concepts first illuminated in 2019's Data Industrial Complex seem even more prescient and applicable today. Hence the emergence of The Data Industrial Complex II, further expounding on the concepts laid bare in Part I. Taking into account the impermanence of the Data Age and its inherent disingenuity, it's crucial to appreciate that this brand new dispatch is crafted by human hands and more importantly, informed through human experience: heartbreak, betrayal, perseverance and ultimately exaltation. Messages not merely ephemeral, but transcribed onto tangible artefacts; crucial bulletins for all with ears to hear. New Power Electronics messages for the Post-Industrial era, built upon the rock of truth, and through the sweat of its creators. Terror Cell Unit provide you just enough bits of bandwidth with which to hang yourself. There's no point in changing your story now, your digital footprint cannot be scrubbed" (Zac Bouvion). Ltd x 300 copies in a 6-panel digipak. |
 TERROR CELL UNIT - 'You Will Be Excluded From The Kingdom Of Heaven' CD (Old Europa Cafe) - £12
A new edition of the original statement first released by Nil By Mouth Records on cassette and immediately sold out. Transmissions that refuse to be suppressed by the smothering hands of the seemingly ubiquitous audio platforms. Drawing inspiration from the forefathers of Power Electronics, but pushing the foundational doctrines into new territories, Terror Cell Unit are truly deacons shepherding over the flock of modern acts that would seek to evangelize and shock in equal measure. These are not simply postulated axioms, but firm statements formed through observation of the savagery that mankind inflicts on other men in the name of righteousness. Many who carry the message do so with ulterior motives of self enrichment. Terror Cell Unit seek only to tear down all falsehoods erected before them, wielding only the weapon of their sonic testimony. "My greatest revenge, my greatest redemption, is to point and laugh at you while God takes me by the hand to the heavens and you stay put in your tiny little corner. So raise your bibles high! Let me see them all!". Ltd x 300 copies in a digipak with insert. |
 TOTEM - 'Satanic Pandemonium' CD (Hell Attacks) - £10

A strident majesty of demonic left hand path magick soundscapes and ritual atmospherics. Welcome to the ritualisation of your subconscious. "Search for the inner light, for the ineffable presence of Satan inside yourself". Ltd x 333 copies in an A5 gatefold card sleeve.

Wilt - one of the most prolific and talented artists of the genre returns with a two-part series dedicated to and inspired by the work of H.P Lovecraft. These new offerings both serve as a portal into a poisoned mind, filled with images of unnameable horror. Dark ambient noise collides with black static transmissions from unknown planes. Cavernous droning atmospheres painting images of hopeless dread. Subtle Death Industrial loops collide like the tectonic plates of a Black Earth. Dense hypnotic darkness with a unique organic edge. Wilt is "Scarecrow Electronics" wizard James P. Keeler. |

 KLEISTWAHR - 'Winter / Music For Zeitgeist Fighters' 2 x CD (Fourth Dimension) - £13.50
Double CD set featuring two essential albums from Gary Mundy's (Ramleh / Broken Flag boss) Industrial / Noise project Kleistwahr, both presented on CD for the first time, with five bonus previously-unreleased tracks. "Winter" was originally released on cassette in 2019 as part of the "On Corrosion" box and as a standalone vinyl in 2021 (both Helen Scarsdale Agency) - "Music for Zeitgeist Fighters" was originally a limited vinyl issued in 2017 (Nashazphone). As with all of Kleistwahr's music, the very same strands of noise, tempered abrasiveness and serrated industrial hum that the project initially introduced in the early '80s can still be found guiding the sound but there's so much more to Kleistwahr than this. As with Ramleh, ravaged psychedelia and a tendency to infuse it with sensibilities found more often in art rock, prime period post-punk and even avant-garde music likewise play a significant role, rendering it a distinctive project driven by a singular vision that thankfully shows no signs of letting up. Ltd x 300 copies in a 6-panel ecopak. |
 CAPRICORNI PNEUMATICI - 'Ix Tab' CD (Eighth Tower Records / Unexplained Sounds) - £12
Capricorni Pneumatici present an album dedicated to the mysterious Mayan deity, goddess of ropes and snares, and patroness of those who hang themselves. Originally released on cassette in 1988, the album was influenced not only by Mayan mysteries but also by Western and medieval esotericism (I.A.O., The Inquisition, etc.) and vampirism (Akhkharu). The artwork features glyphs and images of demons taken from the Dresden Codex, and the cover image specifically is a representation of Ix Tab, likely the only existing visual depiction of the deity. At the time, the tape was distributed through underground channels and in a well-known esoteric bookstore in Milan, where, following the interest generated by CP I, Al-Azif, and the Zos-Kia zine, rumours began to circulate that Capricorni Pneumatici was a mysterious secret Californian group devoted to unspeakable cults and somehow connected to Anton LaVey's Church.
"Ix Tab" was recorded between Nov 1987 - Jan 1988, and it is the first full-length album by Capricorni Pneumatici to make extensive use of the Yamaha DX7 synthesizer, alongside the Revox A77, used as an echo/effect unit and to manipulate vocals, as no digital effects were available at the time. The recordings involved experimental techniques, including the use of glass bottles as wind instruments and a 50Hz sine wave captured by moving a cardioid microphone within the space between two speakers emitting the frequency. This album includes some vocal parts attributed in the credits to an entity called Soda Caustica. Ltd x 100 copies (CD proper) in 6-panel digipak.

 RALF WEHOWSKY - 'Fading Pictures' CD (Black Rose Recordings) - £11
This is a cinematic and inspiring musical journey which combines beautiful ambience interspersed with haunting atmospheres and electro-acoustic soundscapes - cinema for the ears. "There are feedback-like sounds... a reminder of the early days of musique concrète, but also recordings of stringed instruments, played with bows, played in a somewhat improvised way, but hacked into fine little pieces, edited and served as the next course in this fine dinner. Between these ends, the pure electronic sounds and the improvised recordings, all extensively processed, is where we find RLW at work. Sometimes loud, sometimes quiet, with lots of dynamics, and an extreme eye for detail... This is a highly diverse and excellent work. " (Vital Weekly). Ralf Wehowsky is one of the most respected electronic composers of our day and was one of the founding members of the seminal German group P16.D4 and the label Selektion, whose ground-breaking releases influenced many working in today's experimental music scene. Digipak with great artwork by Chris Low.

 FRITZ & TONY - 'The Party's Over' CD (Dark Vinyl) - £12
FRITZ & TONY is a collaboration between Tony Wakeford (Sol Invictus) and Fritz Hagal (Sonne Hagal) with support by Matt Howden (Sieben), Risa Hara (Inanis Yoake) and Bo Rande (Blue Foundation).
This album breaks the borders between different music styles, from Folk Noir to Dark Jazz, from Dark Ambient to Modern Classical. A dystopian disco that draws you down the rabbit hole of their inner world. Lyrics drift between raw introspection, sharp critiques of capitalism, and surreal snapshots of a society spiralling out of control. Recorded between the grey skies of London and the twilight corners of Berlin, this album captures the unease of now with elegance and grit. Gloomy trumpets, haunted vocals, and glitchy textures merge into a soundscape that's uniquely theirs. 6-panel ecopak. |
 MAURIZIO BIANCHI - 'S.F.A.G. 31.11.1981' CD (Eighth Tower Records / Unexplained Sounds) - £12
"S.F.A.G. 31.11.1981" is comprised of two tracks of mechanically echoing structures from Maurizio Bianchi, the father of Italian post-Industrial. The original 1982 cassette, "S.F.A.G. 81", used his earlier work, "Symphony For A Genocide" as source material, albeit heavily filtered. This definitive reissue is the first to use the album's proper name and track titles. It explores a number of themes that appear throughout Bianchi's works - destruction and technological decline resulting in bleak dystopias, personal and societal disorientation, philosophy, and spirituality. It is purposely ambiguous with reverberating noise and dissonance that reflects - or perhaps creates - a sourceless yet immersive tension. Bianchi's penchant for manipulating raw sounds results in a hypnagogic journey that does not have a clear beginning or end.
From 1979 to 1984, Bianchi released around 35 albums, showcasing a period of intense creativity before he took a break from music until 1998. Working with rudimentary equipment, including basic tape recorders and synthesizers, Bianchi overcame significant technical limitations as well as a conservative mentality in the music industry of the time. Ltd x 200 copies in a 6-panel matt-laminate digipak. |
 PALO ALTO - 'The Persistence Of Memory (Early Tapes 1990-1993)' 2 x CD (ADN / Klanggalerie) - £14.50
Palo Alto was formed Paris in 1989 by Jacques Barbéri, Denis Frajerman, Philippe Masson and Philippe Perreaudin. The group took inspiration from Tuxedomoon, Art Zoyd, The Legendary Pink Dots, Coil, The Residents, Can and Cabaret Voltaire. Science fiction in all its forms is a leitmotiv in the group's work. In 1990 Palo Alto released their debut cassette tape, "Le Clos", on Old Europa Cafe. At the time their music was definitely written rather than improvised, consisting mainly of instrumentals with a stress on melody. Two years later, "Extrême Ponction" was released as a cassette on the T.T.I.C.C. Contingent. This double CD collects those two tapes with the addition of "Excroissance", a cassette single from 1993. All material was remastered by Norscq in 2024. Presented in a 6-panel ecopak.

 EUROSHIMA - 'Desolación' CD (Twilight Records) - £12
After 37 years without releasing any new material Euroshima are back with a new album. "Desolación" offers 12 new songs that signify the definitive return of this Argentine cult darkwave / goth rock / post-punk band. With a new singer in their line-up, Euroshima promise to leave a mark on the Argentine scene. Devastatingly moving vocals ache explore the vast depths of human suffering at the hands of isolation and regret. Beginning in 1986, Euroshima released just one album - the emotional and intense debut "Gala", released to great success on the underground scene in 1987. The sound reminds of bands like Selofan, Lebanon Hannover, Mephisto Waltz, or many other 30+ year old 'classic' acts. Gatefold digisleeve. |
 GROLLHEIM - 'Ad Portas Tenebraes' 2 x CD (Ksenza Records) - £15
This impressive set features the first demos from Chilean old school Dungeon Synth act Grollheim, most of which were released on tiny editions of just 30 copies. From a distant land veiled by ancient mist, a solitary journey destined for a shocking glossolalical acts of resurgent malignancy entitled "Ad Portas Tenebræs" - a grim compilation destined to reveal the pilgrimages and mysteries engendered in each of the first demos of this evil entity: "Ehrenfeld", "Behrens", "Finsternis", "Kristallnacht Live", and "Stillfried". A mysterious and dark requiem for the glory of the forests and ancient dimensional segments from Valdivian dominions. An important part of the dimensional elemental acts of this entity, arguing between the depths of the Valdivian halls, its stories of bygone times, the mysterious passage of the ancient mansions, the Germanic colonisation and the whispers of the sinister cauldrons, all encapsulated in an album dedicated to strongly embracing the diminished history crystallised in Old School Dungeon Synth orchestrations. Grollheim (aka Lord Valtgryftåke) also records as Pyreficativm and Gryftigæn. Ltd x 111 copies (CD proper) in a 6-panel matt-laminate double digipak. |
 VARIOUS ARTISTS - 'Anthology Of Experimental Music From Australia' CD (Unexplained Sounds) - £12
This chapter in Unexplained Sounds' "Sound Mapping" series turns its ear to Australia, a continent whose sonic expressions are as vast, isolated, and idiosyncratic as its geography. The artists featured in this compilation explore a wide terrain of auditory possibilities, from shimmering drones and granular textures to fractured electronics and abstract field manipulations. These works seem to breathe with a spatial consciousness, attentive to both the expanse and the minutiae of sound.
Some artists draw from the natural world capturing insect rhythms, wind distortions, or the resonance of empty spaces, while others build synthetic architectures that pulse and collapse in unpredictable rhythms. There is a tension between the organic and the constructed, the intimate and the remote. This is a snapshot of the Australian experimental scene; a selection of singular voices navigating sound beyond genre, tradition, or commercial expectation. Features: Browning Mummery, Alexandra Spence, Wythchings, Tuonela, David Whatson, Amby Downs, Automating, Lost Ether, Matt Warren, Ergonomic Sound Office, TAK / Todd Anderson-Kunert, Astral Flight, Von Helfenstein, Bushranger, and Scientia. Ltd x 100 copies (CD proper) in a 6-panel matt-laminate digipak. |
