New TOURETTE and PURGIST cassettes

[metalpunk]

New cassettes by TOURETTE and PURGIST:

TOURETTE - Proximité du Murmure TAPE
TOURETTE is a solo act run by a Parisian artist Benjamin Clément who has established himself as one of the leaders of contemporary harsh noise for over a decade. Clément's art is an example of an exceptional harsh noise since the artist emphasizes the compositional aspect of his works. Each TOURETTE album is drenched in unique somnolent atmosphere with hints of erotica and poetry. ,,Proximité du murmure" follows in similar vein. TOURETTE compiled an album made of unsettling tension and fragile beauty vowen with pristine sound quality which is a rare feature in the genre. Besides the compositional beauty, "Proximité du Murmure" also carries a dynamic amplitude, once again dissimilar from the cliched, clipped and blown-out harsh noise sound. Mandatory. Limited to 50.

PURGIST - Our Temple is on Fire TAPE
PURGIST is a solo act established in 2013 by Dawid Kowalski - a representative of the Polish experimental music scene. Having concluded his previous solo endeavor called Sleep Sessions (2005-2013), Kowalski pursues his artistic identity in PURGIST which is a logical continuation of his previous efforts. The newest release titled "Our Temple is on Fire" is a collection of recordings which serve as an introduction to the upcoming full-length album "Secret Habit". The sounds here are best described as eclectic since they bridge the gap between traditional experimental music (field recordings, tape manipulation) with advanced Digital Signal Processing. Additionally, Kowalski puts considerable focus on the compositional aspect of his works, stepping away from typical improvisation. "Our Temple is on Fire" as well as his other albums are also a form of revealing personal vices and deep-seated imperfections. The income made from this album will be put towards financing a portion of the costs related to the upcoming "Introspective" USA Tour 2016. Limited to 50.

Still fresh:

MAAAA - Abhorrence and Dismay CD / TAPE / T-SHIRT
"Abhorrence and Dismay" is the first MAAAA release in six years. Sergei Hanolainen has composed two post-industrial suites which explicitly and deliberately transcend the confines of the genre. The core narrative of the album is propelled by a rich palette of sounds including decaying tape loop manipulation, amplified objects, field recordings and torn harsh noise passages. "Abhorrence and Dismay" defies clear classification and is the artist's most mature offering to date. Mastered by Tommi Keränen. Limited to 200 CDs / 38 cassettes / 50 T-shirts

SEWER ELECTION - Wreck CD
SE is a widely-acclaimed project in the noise, industrial and experimental electronic music circles. "Wreck" is without a doubt one of the heaviest works Dan Johansson has put out in the recent years. Surprisingly enough, it bears some resemblance to HEINZ HOPF (a duo consisting of Johansson and Matthias Anderssen). Unique, uncompromising harsh noise crunch and punishing junk metal abuse. The album contains many other elements of the trademark SEWER ELECTION sound – tape manipulation, layers of subtle noise residue, an array of contrasts. A masterpiece. Limited to 200.

6 T-shirts left. Large and XX-Large. First come, first served.
Ice grey Gildan Ultra Cotton / 12 EUR
