***With the exception of "Eight Cut Scars," this is completely different from the cassette of the same name, though every second does contain subliminal messages (some things are just too good to let go of). "Hyper-focused [and] monolithic," according to All Music Guide, "harrowing, but strangely beautiful," while East Village Radio describes it as hallucinatory and sprawling. Silkscreened gatefold jacket. Edition of 500.

***This continuation in the alternate universe tradition of TWIG HARPER’s three-volume Intuitive American Esoteric series, and his first proper CD release, is forty-three minutes of psychedelic tape manipulations and droning synthesizer, electronic and organic sound mixed to brain-warping perfection, bells, homemade electronics, synth, piano, strings, junk, horns and voice treated with tape for full-on musique concrete / sound poetry / electronic trance-inducing confusion. Edition of 500.

Slice Through Or / In Glassmetal by Mannion, John

Mannion, John

Slice Through Or / In Glassmetal
Hanson

***Debut LP, three years in the making, by JOHN MANNION of RED LIGHT COLLECTIVE and CATHODE TERRO SECRETION. This extreme electronic composition is an ultra-dynamic mix of modern classical, electronic, noise, and power electronics techniques. Whirling electric box fan, piercing electronics, junk metal clang, screeching violins, harsh and whispered vocals, and haunting vocals by opera singer CAITLIN HAUGHNEY. Silkscreen jacket, lyric sheet. Edition of 500.

***Crude noise from the filthiest Cleveland basements and scum punk bars by WYATT HOWLAND (DEAD PEASANT INSURANCE, APARTMENT 213), whose knack for writhing in the underbelly of sound using junk metal, field recordings and primitive electronics is not easily matched. Dystrophy is complete audio horror texture: pulverizing harsh sounds of fluttering static, feedback and crushed metal. Edition of 500.

History Of Nothing by New Blockaders

New Blockaders

History Of Nothing
Hanson

***Freq's testimonial should make anyone who reads it giddy with anticipation: "Sheer sheets of onanistic sound ruin the rack and explode across the consciousness. Imagine what it would've been like to hear this in 1982, when it was completely new and very few frames of reference were hanging on any wall, anywhere. This is the hard rain that's promised to fall—this sound is a rage against loneliness in one of the loneliest places on Earth while pursuing one of the loneliest forms of expression. Totally interstellar, completely vital, utterly timeless." Now go record your next C10, you little pussy. All tracks are from the ‘80s and early ‘90s, previously released on CD (Siren 2001); this is their first appearance on vinyl. Edition of 300 copies. Heavy duty silk-screened covers with the usual Hanson Droll-Flaps.

Meta-klamauk (for Jean Tinguely) / Crincum Crancum by New Blockaders

New Blockaders

Meta-klamauk (for Jean Tinguely) / Crincum Crancum
Hanson

***"Meta-Klamauk returns us to that garage of doom featured on Changez Les Blockeurs," notices Sound Projector. "The mechanics have installed a noisy fan-heater device, and are getting a lot more work done. Crincum-Crancum is, relatively speaking, a near-musical concoction. Perhaps twenty plus years hath mellowed their saturnine psyche and dulled their appetite for relentless noise; this is less urgent, and there's almost an air of resigned weariness to this 2002 work. That said, it is no less bilious, the reservoir of hatred still fuels the evil intent." Both sides originally appeared on the delirious, jawdropping Gesamtnichtswerk 4xCD (Hypnagogia 2003); this is their first appearance on vinyl. Edition of 300 copies, silk-screened covers with the usual Hanson Droll-Flaps.

***CD edition of the sold-out Wagon Records LP pulls the thick drone sound of their Solar Bridge LP into an even more abstract and strange place. EMERALD’s visual music transports listeners through tubes of sound and occasionally sweeps them in the opposite direction with unexpected entrances into another world entirely. An intense journey that drops you off in a place just beyond death. With field recording contributions from AARON DILLOWAY and a 16-page color booklet of photo artwork by the band.

Total Vacuum by Darksmith

Darksmith

Total Vacuum
Hanson

***CD reissue of the debut vinyl from California sound artist TOM DARKSMITH, whose crude musique concrète uses tapes, voice, records, radio, guitar, drums, objects, and domestic and field recordings. Assembled on cassette four-track in 2008 and 2009, this total mystery of perfectly paced dirt sound—not harsh, not mellow, just unclean, weird, and confusing—tests your audio Rohrshach; Hanson hears weedwacking, getting zipped into a suitcase and shipped via train, ghost voices roaming in sewers, riding in a helicopter with mid-grade noise reduction earmuffs on, a shitty metal door locking on a crew of mumbling idiots, and a garbage disposal. Whatever you hear, that’s your problem. Recommended for fans of Yeast Culture, Agog, Joe Colley, Graham Lambkin, Jason Lescalleet, Hands To. 500 copies packaged in black poly jewel cases.

***Total misery by Robert Turman (ex-NON, Z.O. Voider) and a former Wolf Eye, recorded in January 2009 during a horrible Ohio snowstorm. Dilloway on synthesizer and tape delays, Turman on tapes and effects, both frozen and stuck in the snow. Very minimal, very slow, very cold.

In The Shade Of Fire by Haters

Haters

In The Shade Of Fire
Hanson

***Originally released on LP by Silent Records in 1986, minus two tracks (for length), In The Shade of Fire can now be heard how it was originally intended for the first time. The harsh sound works of THE HATERS bring to mind the idea of process: ideologies behind something being destroyed or manipulated; the amplified and sometimes distorted sounds of the processes representing a document of acts carried out upon the objects, machines, or otherwise. The Haters intend listeners to experience the process of the audio lines as they were primarily constructed in the recording area. In the Shade of Fire, remastered by WARN DEFEVER from the original master reels, reflects their strong textural aesthetic through object manipulation and recording that defines GX JUPITTER-LARSEN’s place in the world of harsh noise. "Glsam" and "Diti" are explosive, introductory and side-concluding / framing pieces that highlight and pronounce the breaking and crashing down of material, all gelled with bass-driven strikes whose trails deteriorate into hints of cascading dirty and dark 'Americanoise' distortion. "Bebas" powers through a heavier dynamic with conscious falling apart of source material, but in abstracted waves that suggest rebuilding just to simply crash fall apart again in futility. "Thuch" enhances the textural elements of the explosions and crashes as the sharpness of the strikes are slightly rounded at the edges and expose a quasi-gurgle that moves and slaps with vicious perplexity. "Taisic," a study of hiss manipulation, is accented with minimalist scraping. "Cassas" is the album's meditation on sharp,...

*** A digital release of noise-solderers WOLF EYES' most accomplished of their many cassette releases. A more minimal, tone-heavy and slower recording than much of their work, fired with deep electronic and horn-generated tones, stretched and layered over glitch-electronics, ultra-crude tape manipulation, and ear-piercing scraping glass. Nightmarish, painful, and stoned.
