Listening to PUTRIFIER "Cog Dominance" in the car last week when I got into a wreck...
I was sitting at a stoplight & got blasted, didn't see it coming.
Went to the impound yard to retreive stuff from the car/carcass but the disc is stuck in the player- can't help wishing someone gets to "experience" it at the appropriate volume someday...

Similarly, I was driving to band practice and listening to Deathspell Omega in January and lost control and slammed my car into a tree. 

I was scared for a second that the last voice I would hear before dying was Mikko's.

MANIA / CUSTODIAN split LP
I think this is possibly less exciting than most of Mania stuff? It's not bad, but his level has simply become rather high, so especially latter part of side goes little directionless.  Listened few times and didn't quite get it. Custodian is simple, to the point, very harsh, but also hardly has many moments that stand out. I think the other Mania splits work out better! Not bad, but I guess being such limited vinyl was suitable for this.

RAT-ALARM s/t tape
Posh Isolation synth & drum machine music. Little vocals. Grim and blurred sound quality, little bit clumsy and goofy moments, but probably very suitable for fans of LFY etc.. Not as "pop", but still that direction.

ROSE ALLIANCE "Scandinavian Pictures" tape
Heavy rythmical pornographic post industrial, which has perhaps hints of Galakt Hörro kind of stuff, but also... dare I say more techno?! Charming sound quality gives a lot of character to stuff.

VANITY PRODUCTIONS "I Allerførste Gry" tape
Same could be said here. Charming lo-fi tape decay blurred sound quality is what sets these records apart from material what to me, would probably appear more like rainforest new age muzak, hah! Now the melancholic droney danish ethereal techno beat material manages to remain interesting!

HAUS ARAFNA "New York Rhapsody" LP
Supposedly the "odd" album of HA, since it was soundtrack for fashion show. But well, if it's these people, you know what to expect. Less aggressive, less dark, but the same sound quality, same kind of rhythms, same kind of vibrating vocal effects and gloomy melancholic synths etc. I always admire the sound they use, but also think what's the use of all different projects when they sound so similar?

DAVE PHILLIPS "Abgrund" LP
Damn! KILLER ALBUM!!!! Mix together contemporary orchestral music consisting mostly strings, and mix it with the usual ingredients of Schimpfluch related projects. Demented human sounds, throat fucking, dogs, animals, abrupt noise bursts, perfection of timing and tension. It may not be as fierce and extreme as Rudolf "...broomstick..." CD, but I say, if you want this kind of stuff, this album is ultimate must. Possibly became instantly my favorite Dave Phillips album! Nice presentation by Second Sleep label.

MIKA VAINIO / KEVIN DRUMM / AXEL DÖRNER / LUCIO CAPECE "Venexia" LP
Another nice Pan records release. It starts quiet, and I keep cranking up volume and conclude that is this first Pan vinyl with actually disturbing vinyl surface noise?! But it's only because it starts quiet and one can't avoid the dust in this house.... When volume hits in, cutting appear top quality. Collaboration between so many people, I kind of fail to even identify who provides what, and compositionally it is very abstract. Good LP, but left me somehow asking "what did just happen"?

GEWALTMONOPOL

A package arrived from Xn the other day. I have been critical of that label in the past but I'm beginning to soften.

DIUTESC - What Have You Done?, 7"

How does one talk about Diutesc and not mention Genocide Organ? One doesn't I guess. A side is vintage GO and about as fine as anything out of their earlier catalogue. B side is pretty weak. Packaging, as expected, is outstanding!


HYDRA - Anal Test, 7"

A side is typical US PE with plenty of dirty low end. Pretty good. B side is the kind of screachy shit I am not in the mood for at all today. Packaging, although certainly costly, is piss awful.

No regrets but I think the Operation Cleansweep T-Shirt will be the most used item from this order.

Bleak Existence

Infirmary - vacant city

Levas

Infirmary - All of your ghosts CDr (Victimology) - This is indeed very good output! It's not even wall in places, but more of a filthy, dense harsh noise that is most enjoyable here.

Dead Body Collection - This is my home 2xCDr (Victimology) - 4 tracks of about 30 minutes. The best thing is personal touch to all that.

Dead Body Collection - Vaginal Anomalies 6xCDr (Victimology) - heh. I'm improving, no worries. Few years ago it was quite difficult for me to listen to an hour of statics. Now it's ok, but when it's 8 hours, it's still difficult. But good music for lifting weights for example. And overall nice packagin etc.

Knox om Pax - Laudanum CD (Destructive Industries) - Found this lying in random place at home. Don't remember listening to it. Quite good and moody piano music, just a little too short for a CD. 20 minutes or so.

Vomir/Crucifix Eye CS (Forever Escaping Boredom) - What an awesome wall by Vomir!!! No, I'm lying. It's like always. Crucifix Eye - worse

Richard Ramirez / Crucifix Eye CS (Forever Escaping Boredom) - Crucifix Eye side is almost inaudible. Ramirez's stuff is quite average.

Mikerdeath

Lustmord - The Place Where The Black Stars Hang

Matthias

Sleaford Mods - Austerity Dogs LP (Harbinger)
Strong contender for the official soundtrack to the spring of 2013 for me

Keith Rowe/Graham Lambkin - Making A CD (Erstwhile)
Heavy focus on contact mic'ed objects with a killer editing. Paper crumbling, scissors, pencils... Quite nice for what it is, but perhaps nothing I will return to too often.

Kazuma Kubota/Self-Inflicted Violence 7" (Cipher)
Kubota just getting better and better! SIV alright.

Bleak Existence

Vomir - relation contractée

FreakAnimalFinland

I wonder is any album of Eyehategod underrated? I feel like anyone who's into sludge, is into Eyehategod? Biggest, most wellknown, most respected of the bands?!

KE/HIL "Lesson In Brotherly Hate" tape
Many times praised, and indeed, good live tape. When vocals hit in first time, I'm quite horrified if they remain THIS loud entire tape, but they start to blend in better. Songs such as "Dark Germany" become very good in live sound. Album had this cold electronic feel, and in this tape sound is noisier recording. Good advice that even for album, some bands would benefit to overdrive their sound a bit!

ALTAR OF FLIES / MIRRORS ARE BLACK split LP
Well, I was praising Mirrors Are Black for their other split 7" and they do offer great material here too. Droning, yet absent of all the boredom, full of tasty creative work! Altar Of Flies rotated few times, but I must say I do like "Female" LP more! This is good, but I don't think it's best of AOF what some people have told me? Certainly worth purchasing and multiple listens anyway!

AUNT MARY / MAN IS THE BASTARD split 10"
Its the same as split 7", and as much as I try to convince that I am not "collector". I don't need or want multiple formats of same releases - in general... there are few personally important releases, which I have 2..3..4 even 5 copies for reason or another. Darkthrone (nor), Burzum (nor), Goatlord (us), Confusion (col), Genocide Organ (ger), Operation Cleansweep (ger), Guns'n'Roses (us)... that's about it.. but wait a minute! Also AUNT MARY! For whatever stupid reason as different color paper in xeroxed cover, or just to secure good quality vinyl besides "usual listening copy" so I'll have good record to listen for rest of my life. So despite I have heard this release countless times since it was releases and own few versions of it, good addition to shelves. 45rpm 10", original artworks scanned. AM is Finnish noisecore chaos, maybe only one step behind the legendary full length 7". MITB is at their most vital west coast power violence phase, keeping tracks short and aggressive, but already shining that 100% unique style of composition and musical execution. Also caveman electronics sound more rotten than after this.

SHIFT / HAL HUTCHINSON 10"
Heavy! Metal junk clatter of HH and solid brutalist fuzz distorted tones and rhythms of Shift. Throaty processed vocals. In normal moments, it sounds basically what you'd expect if you combine Shift and HH. But I feel at the best, it is in "Their Fall Will Be Harder Than Ours" part, where talented modulation of distortions in oppressive and heavy rhythm loop makes me think that for long time someone could stand proudly next to GO's "klaus barbie". Too often rhythms became stale, when one loop goes on and one and one, without any input from "player". Here we have active modulation of distortions and frequency, what remains subtle and in restricted lines of dark and oppressive mood. Absolute hit song for loud blasting on proper stereos!

AARON DILLOWAY / JASON LESCALLEET LP
Another neat PAN records release. Very thick synth sounds and other electronics. I feel the A-side isn't going enough forward. When you flip the side, there is more happening than very basic synth sounds. I'm not such a big fan of most of synth sounds, and vast amount of playing time of this belongs to those heavier bass loaded tones, rather than fierce treble noise or more stable patterns where synth basically replaces rhythm section. It's still good LP, but I was expecting much more hand made feel.
