Out now! Freak Animal presents two repressings of Grunt: Seer of Decay and split with Cloama. No changes in sound, simply re-pressings where artwork is altered to be suitable for jewelbox. Industrial Recollections offers more Grunt as well as collection of 12 years of Nicole 12 and ultimate set of oldest Putrefier materials! Many have read about his work in As Loud As Possible magazine, yet older material has been nearly impossible to find. Industrial Recollections is proud to present pretty much complete old works of this English master!


*GRUNT "long lasting happiness" CD (12.00,-) NEW
This CD is not an album. although it could have been. Lets look back to mid 2000's before "Seer Of Decay" album and many of these recordings are showing the direction taken on that album. Long Lasting Happeness session originally published as split tape with Prurient (Freak Animal) that has been out of stock for years. Two tracks. "Never Wake Up" and "Streets of Decadence" recorded around same time. basically belonging to same session of sounds. have remained unreleased for all these years. Waiting for one compilation to be out. which probably never will. Further 4 tracks are alternative version of "Street of Decadence". which made it to Nihilistic Paraphilia 1. and thematically those releases belong to the same re-issue. "Caught (original version)" from same disc shows early version of raw PE style later adjusted further on split with Taint. "Paid Victims Of Modern World Fetishes" and "MaleClit" are songs only released in ltd to 50 copies Nihilistic Paraphialia vol. 2! "Nihilistic Paraphilia" compilations were Japanese tour releases made in tiny CDR editions sold in Grunt tours 2005 and 2008. This CD compiles some of the best materials of this era of Grunt. filled with piercing feedback. sharp and crispy ear-slashing metal scrap noises. abundance of vocals and very song oriented approach as opposed to "plain noise" pieces. Still vast variety and abundance of sonic elements. 50 minutes.

*GRUNT "seer of decay" 2xCD (15.00,-) NEW
In some ways. the first real Grunt album. One disc harsh power electronics tracks and other CD acoustic non-effected metal junk noise. Power Electronics disc studying & explaining the Grunt philosophy of "Seer of Decay". which is valid angle to cover pretty much all content/substance used in recordings. Other tracks continue to approach different topics from perspective of Seer of Decay. Re-issue of 2012 in double-jewelbox packaging with all lyrics! Freak Animal.

*GRUNT / CLOAMA "valkoinen kuolema / belaja smert" cd (12.00,-) NEW
This was the first Grunt/Cloama work. Split album recorded mostly around 1998. It was finally released in 2002 and sold out. Now Freak Animal is proud to present 2nd pressing in jewelbox. Most of recordings are 1998. with additional live collaboration and Cloama track 1999-2000. Grunt side of material continues the "Europe After Storm" era highly contructed power electronics. including militant rhythms and hostile vocals suitable for theme focusing around Finland vs. Russian war propaganda. Cloama is his crystallic power electronics tones and distorted vocals. Re-issue from 2012 comes in jewelbox and Russian language part of title is corrected into "Belaja Smert". Finnish industrial-noise and power electronics!. Cloama: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smXpozVsibA

*PUTREFIER "Beyond Scathing" CD (12.00,-) NEW
In 1986 Birthbiter labels first release was debut tape of Putrefier. 4 tracks of intense electronics. which would mix together spirit of UK power electronics. noise and experimental industrial. This extremely rare recording is finally presented on CD format. offering great sound and artwork scanned from original covers. See Industrial Recollections two other Putrefier titles. These 3 together pretty much sum up the 80's / early 90's Putrefier approach! Industrial Recollections

Oh wow that Grunt Long Lasting Happiness collection and the Nicole 12 sound promising. The material on Nihilistic Paraphilia 2 is incredibly good and I've wanted to own it instead of just having digital. I think I used to have a copy of Cog Dominance (or maybe it was his split from same year) but don't remember what it sounded like.

Wow, there have been a lot of Grunt reissues in the past year.

Grunt/Taint split
Europe After Storm

and now these. I've always liked that first Grunt/Cloama split, it was probably the first time I had heard both projects.

Well, we're reaching soon 20 years anniversary of Grunt. Expected is some kind of "closure" for old stuff. Intent has been to have relevant stuff in print, in good versions and to have more obscure stuff archived in format it won't rot and disappear. Summer will have brutal set on 90's obscurities, but at some point perhaps finally new album will be completed...

Any chance of Grunt on vinyl? With the exception of the recent tape, seems like all the Grunt releases in recent years have been strictly on CD.

It's been most of all length issue.
There has not been material released that is 40 mins or under.
