PT:126 Custodian "The Weight Of Tension" c20
Edition of 100 in 2 color screen printed cassette arigato pack.
http://www.discogs.com/Custodian-The-Weight-Of-Tension/release/2495636
If you don't know who Custodian is by now you either have your head up your ass or you must not be into harsh noise. This release is the kind of sounds you would expect from Custodian- loops, feedback and crushing low end. This will not disappoint.

PT:130 Bonesfield/ Facialmess "Sabotage" c52
Edition of 100 in 2 color screen printed cassette arigato pack.
http://www.discogs.com/Bonesfield-Facialmess-Sabotage/release/2496333
Bonesfield is a harsh noise project out of Spain who provides harsh noise with lots of high end, short loops and often tends to cut between sounds. Facialmess is a long running cut up project out of Japan. He is known for his quick abrupt cuts masterfully edited tracks.
The art for this release was designed by Alonso Urbanos (Scumearth) and although it took forever to print and fucked up my hands it turned out looking amazing.

PT:132 Dim Dusk Moving Gloom + Andrew Coltrane "Trojan Force" c30
Edition of 50 in Norelco with 2 color screenprinted covers.
http://www.discogs.com/Dim-Dusk-Moving-Gloom-Andrew-Coltrane-Trojan-Force/release/2430826
This is a collaboration between these two prolific projects. Two sides of slow burning textural noise. Not super harsh, not really ambient but a damn good listen.

Well, I couldn't pass up the custodian and facial mess tapes. the bonesfield sounds awesome from the sample. I actually bought all four. Even the dim dusk sounds better than the usual crap I hear from that project. I would like to see more harsh cut talk on this board

This cracked me right up!
The Custodian tape looks nice. I don't know Custodian because I have my head up my arse when it comes to a lot of harshnoise. I'm an industrial PE man at heart first and foremost. It's good to see someone making an effort on packaging and design. The genre certainly doesn't spoil us with that.
yeah i know you guys are a tough crowd when it comes to harsh noise.
its good to see your not taking my playful shit talking too seriously.
were those covers done up at stumptown? they look really awesome.

the brad (cassette arigato) packs were purchased at stumptown.
100% of the screen printing on my label was done by me in my basement. (except the heavy focus comp. that was printed by me and joe from small doses)
the designs are sometimes by me sometimes by other people.
that's definitely the best home screening i've seen in a while.
