is the rest in the same vein?

I think good starting point is to check out the bands on ADN Records... they released many of these bands.
One I rarely see mentioned is Orgasmo Negato / Die Form (not the french), who I think have some ties to Tasaday.

Jaakko Vanhala - Here Be Lions

Somehow I've never noticed his name but just listened to part of that tape & "Feral Earth". Definitely going to have to grab'em soon esp. "F.E."- the metal sounds are perfect.

Stefano is a top notch guy. I think he was involved in early Italian TOPY, met him only once when we played on the same bill in Pordenone at Congresso POst Industriale. He made a very funny gig wearing a wig with very funny lyrics, totally entertaining.

There are a series of Italian post industrial projects and label that would definitely need a revival, at least for historical reasons.
If anybody is interested I can open a post... We had shitload of excellent/weird projects that didn't sound like anything else. People tend to remember only the harshest ones, but we any sort of weird stuff. From ritual (ain soph!!!), to very complex ones with strong concepts and imagery (officine schwartz, tasaday, CCC CNC NCN -who possibly released the best Italian record of the first wave), FAR (anybody should listen to Presto i topi verranno) and the funny MGZ.

returning to Biasin, I don't have direct contact with him, but I can ask to a common close friend.

Very big thanks for that and I would be grateful for more info or direct contact (e-mail) with him. From your mentioned I don't know only CCC CNC NCN project and I must make my collection and knowledge about this act up. I like very much TASADAY, F:A,R, AIN SOPH and many more (f.e Bruno COSSANO, DISUMANA RES or ZONA INDUSTRIALE, to mention only a few less known). And my favourite body art artist FRANKO B. He isn't composer, but his art is something what lights my fire :) Italy is next example how then was the great diversity and richness in industrial music. Every country had its circle with unique music... Today is different period.... but ok, I don't want to grizzle :)

the funny MGZ

Today funny but in 80's was very interesting. I have always considered "Presto i topi verranno" as twin release to some PSYCHIC TV's works, but this one and other ( I have got 2 yet, one Lp and tape) from 80s are very good.

V/A: DRILLING A HOLE THROUGH THE SKY - 30 YEARS OF THE HATERS (Helicopter 2009) CD + book

Today I received it. The great release, with very impressive interview, and many, many other materials. Recordings come from various artists but all creates one and the same style. Thanks Gerald for that. Hats off!

[tiny_tove]

is it available anywhere in Europe?
I definitely want this. I think Haters must be re-descovered especially by new generations.
Their performances have always been unique.

Regarding italo-industrial wait the week end I will post infos on anything.

I will try to get Biasin's contact for you.

I bought it direct from Gerald. He had spare copy. I don't know where it can buy. Once I saw that Till Kniola had this item, but it was long time ago.

MACHISMO "humiliation is attitude" tape
Anabolic Dimensions
A-side vocal driven contemporary PE, b-side more interesting noise. Pro-tape, quite well done but sinks into current stream of PE without offering much personality.

HVIDE SEJL "the nude" tape
Posh Isolation
solid hissing "drone" or should it be said wall of sound? Not really droning quality after all. B-side starts to shift towards electronic muzak. Nice short tape.

LUST FOR YOUTH "Saluting Rome" tape
Posh Isolation
Hailing electro-pop ? The rugged quality of analogue tape & recording gives the necessary edge what keeps this interesting for me. Normally I don't waste my ears for electro of almost any types..

OLYMPHIA "entrance" tape
Among the very best recent Posh Isolation, although the stream of stuff has been pretty solid! A-side more lo-fi and crude drum machine beats and sounds, b-side taking closer to more "euro pe/industrial" vibe. If you'd want Haus Arafna, Rasthof Dachau and such to be nastier, simpler, analogue tape assaults - this could fit your requirements. Dedicated to search of eternal beauty - oh yes. I hope Olymphia would return with full length - perhaps some Leni's Olympia type body visuals...

CLINIC OF TORTURE / CHLOROFORM RAPIST / SNUFF "rape" LP
Urashima
COT I'm probably wrong person to comment other than it's studio-live recordings with same setting as Helsinki live gig beginning of 2012.
C.R. appears as ok'ish. Simple repeating brutally distorted pattern goes on and on... It slowly grows more intense with filthy gutter noise level rising and some vocals.. yet just too simple recording to compete with supremacy of Snuff. Side long track starts slow and ultra minimal, but the way intensity grows... uh.. I dare to say there ain't much modern PE bands who can reach the level of SNUFF.

Napalmed - iii cd
Had no idea how this would sound, since latest I have heard from Napalmed was some live cdr from 2003. Surprisingly good, dense and droning electronic noise and metal percussion. Not heavy bashing but rhythmic and pretty minimal.

Kryptogen Rundfunk - 22.SZ cd
Industrial with radio and synths. Some weak moments but most of it is very good.

[HONOR_IS_KING!]

Hate Basement "Pathetic" CS
A side is some of the creepiest material I've heard from these guys. Excellent use of a sample of a women crying. Side B is standard Hate Basement Incapacitant's worship with some vocals.

Shattered Hymen "Gash Worship" CS
Probably the best I've heard from Vadim. Self proclaimed mad man doing heavy synth/oscillations with some harsh noise sprinkled throughout on the tape. Some Industrial pulses sprinkled here and there. Reminds me of the recent Volksmorg cassette, except less drunken sounding and more sinister-esque.

Con-Dom "Have Complete Faith" CD
Martin did a fantastic job piecing the layout together while Andy did an excellent job of remastering. Mandatory.

[Bleak Existence]

Snotnosed - cock vomit

Elliot SHARP Twistmap (Ear-Rational Records 1991) CD

One of the better release in massive discography of this composer. Very good free improv with many noise elements but created only by acoustic / traditional instruments. A little bit forgotten but still he demands on bigger attention and underestimation.

DAS PROJEKT -Δt  Bangkok Projekt (Ata Tak / Suezan Studio 1984 / 2011) LP / CD

Today received. I knew this project only from one dubbed LP earlier - "Opera Death". CD mastered version includes two bonus tracks yet. Very unique music where some elements of industrial music are mixed up with ethnic/ritual, experimental and post-punk. One of the greatest, forgotten diamonds from 80s. Besides, nice package and graphic design. Must!
