Secret Apex tape.

Very rich, detailed, dynamic and complex recordings. Can recommend it to the fullest.

Amazing work!

Pogrom - "Multicultural Degeneration"

[eyestrain]

Drug Age Tropismo (Joy De Vivre): Still one of my favorite harsh noise projects going.

Caen Waiting Music (Joy De Vivre): Disguised beauty slithers and moans through the fissure. Really taken back by this one. Great stuff.

Wrong Hole Esthetic Savings (Joy De Vivre): Not sure if it's the dubbing, or if it's the intentional sound of Wrong Hole, but whereas I think I recall the other W.H. recordings I've heard being fairly high gain, this is a nice, chunky, deep rumble ala Macro and the like. Perfect (short) length that held me in the throes of ecstasy much more successfully than the recent Kakerlak or Ahlzagailzehguh/EID tapes. I mention these not qualitatively alone, but also because I think they're circling on the same plateau. Good shit, will have to check out some of his other tapes floating about.

Amph Hudson (Joy De Vivre): Catching my attention way more than previous efforts, although still in a very similar style. Droning without being purely monotonous. Slow (exciting!) developments over two ten-minute sides. ...Overall, my favorite stack from Joy De Vivre yet.

Knækkede Stemmer Første Portræt (Et Hult Menneske) (Järtecknet): Even better than I was expecting (and I had high hopes). Oppressive drones via reel-to-reel tape machines, field recordings, synthesizer, percussion, amplified objects and electronics". Never thought much of Alleypisser or Antonin Pagaille, yet this is fantastic.

Burying Place - Live in Gargždai 2009 - this is one of the longest-living death metal or perhaps even overall metal bands in Lithuania. More or less alive for 20 years with 3 tape releases, this being the third. The reason - there is no drummer alive in Lithuania that could play the composed parts and it is out of question to use programmed drums. And they are finishing their studio album for 10 years perhaps. Well, not a bad band and this live tape is also quite good if you are into brutal death.

Edgars Rubenis & Ilia Belorukov and Jelena Glazova - Latvian ambient/noise artists. They were touring Europe and so on, but the sound is hm. Quite boring. They've sent this here for possible release I think. Ah, I see that Jelena Glazova is called noise princess in the label's description. Heh.

Jelena Glazowa / Wozzeck - this one had some interesting parts in it that were suitable for my taste. But slowly it went weaker and weaker.

Arkhe - For Everything that lives is holy - This is an amazing tape! Rich in sounds and atmospheric. Wonderful and highly recommended.

SCKE// Siera Liora (1981) - Nothing very annoying.

Hymen Holocaust - Blood Feast - nice goregrind from Netherlands.

Debauchery - Kill Maim Burn - Death metal. Not bad though the cover is annoying

Barrikad - Through the voice one becomes animal - Also highly enjoyable stuff from NBM's latest releases. Nice booklet and sounds.

Ivory prince a couple of tracks were good.

A few tapes of untitled and anonymous Lithuanian project, heh. A few people got these private editions of tape without any info, just a few pictures. Though the material is weak, but I like the idea that people are still doing this by theirselves and are not afraid to "be lost" in a pile of releases etc. I liked this moment and also we talked with another person who got this tape - he said "it's difficult to listen to it because I have no fundament/starting point of how to evaluate it apart from the sounds". It's interesting because when the sound should talk for itself and be most important, it suddenly stands somewhere in line behind the label name, artist titles, etc.

I find that an odd viewpoint to have. Anonymous projects seem quite a normal thing in noise/pe/industrial. I have lots of tapes from anonymous projects and yes, sometimes you might to find out more about the artist(s) involved but that need I don't think would make the music difficult to listen to.

[Levas]

Anonymous and untitled. Perhaps the lack of titles and/or references is the case too

Halloween 2LP ost from Mondo

Listening to "Thy Kingdom Scum" from Church of Misery right now. Found a d/l on Pirate Bay. It's pretty good so may buy the vinyl if I can find it for under $35.

Craft - Fuck The Universe
Often forget how solid this is, guess it gets lost in the Southern Lord black metal whirlwind of 2006 but worthwhile returning to it.

Celtic Frost - Morbid Tales
Classic, still an outright stonker. Can't say owt else.

Edit: I know SL only reissued the Craft album, but it happened at a time when they were lashing out "hot tip" cult BM left right and centre, or certainly seemed to be at the time.

New Noveta/Vagina Dentata Organ - The Administration of Physique (7"+3" DVD, Ultra-Mail Prod., 2013)

Both sides were recorded live in July 2013 in Hong Kong (of all places). VDO is a bunch of people doing uptempo drumming and Valls occasionally smashing mirrors. There's also the sound of a crowd clapping and shouting but I guess that was mixed in since I doubt there would've been so many people present, let alone responding so enthusiastically to the performance. It somehow adds humour to the music. New Noveta is noise with occasional female shouting; the music's basis could be VDO's drums sped up.
The 3" DVD is a collection of short excerpts from a couple recent VDO performances (all feature drumming and the smashing of mirrors) and New Noveta's performance in Hong Kong. The latter was a pointless art fag performance in my opinion (2 women dressed in bizarre "clothes" that are attached to the walls of the gallery with rubber bands make all kinds of weird movements) but the music (the same as on the 7") is quite good. I don't know why the VDO performances are just excerpts -- I assume the full shows were recorded if there are excerpts. It would've surely added to the price tag but full performances would be more welcome.
A nice release although I wish there was more mirror shattering on the VDO side. If it wasn't so expensive, I'd order the Live in Berlin LP (I think I've read there's lots of smashing sounds on it).

Rapoon - Moon and Cups (7", Ultra-Mail Prod., 2013)

My first encounter with Rapoon. Quite a nice ambient 7" with some wordless vocals and a somber atmosphere. The genre is not really my cup of tea but I enjoy this record due to its short length. It comes with 2 cards with nice pictures and some doodling on them (a bit too arty for me but still not too offensive).

"If it wasn't so expensive, I'd order the Live in Berlin LP (I think I've read there's lots of smashing sounds on it)."

The pic disc is really good but, yeah, it's expensive for just one side. I got mine in a trade; it's a pretty intense listen but $20+ plus expensive postage, I'd grumbled if I had paid for it.

I ordered the CoM from HHB last night. Looking forward to it! Been listening to Electric Wizard lately so I'm in a doomy mood.

Rasthof Dachau - Zero Tolerance: Nice sounds, nice topic but something is still missing - at least for me
