[GEWALTMONOPOL]

Brutal!

[RyanWreck]

nurture abuse - self titled 2xcs 2006 
dead times - aum war 
reptile worship - alpha draconis

Good choices. I know you ;)

Karlheinz - Creep (live) - Live material from three shows (2 from 2006, 1 from 2007). Each one is some decent rumbling American PE, some loops, effect heavy with loud vocals. I'm not a fan of the rest of his material but this is worth checking out if you can get it for a reasonable price.

Akitsa - Prophetic Heretique - Three tracks including a great, rich and romantic intro track that has a nice French BM touch to it. The title track is a stomping RAC influenced Black Metal, quite thick sounding at times with loud banshee howls and only a couple chord changes, the usual simplistic Akitsa formula. The last track "Goetie" (also on the split with Prurient) is one of my favorite Akitsa tracks; lengthy (almost 6 minutes), slow, crawling minimalism with high pitched screams at first and then the songs breaks down into a slowly picked guitar piece with some background noise and hushed vocals which then picks back up with a fart sample (not really but you'll know what I mean when you hear it) into a heavy kick drum martial beat, depressing lead guitar and more howling vocals.

-still sounded fresh. havent listened to it for a while

come  org ultra3 & ultra4 dvdr burned for me by peter.
-cool stuff, half an hour of sutcliffe jugend live in studio combined with 80s videoart and a whitehouse music video. I think it was total sex and the footage was a warbly vhs orgy. deepthroating and other neat stuff.

Monde Bruits - Purgatory
DMDN - Agonistes 1 & 2
Speculum Fight - Glass Giant
Thirdorgan - Cyclotron

My introductory batch to G.R.O.S.S. (thanks mr. Keränen!). Solid stuff all the way, no yawn-inducing moments on any of these tapes. My favorites are probably the Speculum Fight tape along with the Monde Bruits one. The first is a prime example of the organic rumble method I like so much, the second one a masterful exhibition of inhuman & chaotic sonic waste put in order.

Franca Sacchi  - En LP (Die Schachtel)

Rather relaxed and subtle electronic music from late 60s / early 70s. Side A is pretty ok but not great, on side B the pace picks up and we get some rather great synth action, moves nicely in space and in time. Almost like proper zonked-out kraut-action - a tad restrained maybe, does't go for the all-out psychosis at any point.
But why o' why is the LP pressing so damn noisy? Almost ruins the experience for me, especially on the quieter side A. Makes me wish I had the cd version instead... What's the problem with Italian labels (Alga Marghen comes to mind...) in this respect? Are these all pressed at the same sub-standard plant somewhere? Even a thorough cleaning didn't help with this one.

picked up a lot of good shit at Hospital's sale last weekend. Here are a few things that have really stood out.

Grunt - Someone is Watching (cassette) the a-side is like a creepier version of Terror & Degeneration/Europe After Storm era Grunt. The combination of heavily processed vocals and atmospheric synths and grinding feedback really produces an obscure sci-fi/horror in my mind. And the first track on the b-side "DNA Test" is unlike anything else I've heard by Grunt. Half way through it gets into this trance inducing synth rhythm that leaves me wishing it never ended.

Endless Humiliation - My Wife Is Willing (LP) - black/grind/noise filth by Matt Franco of Air Conditioning. The music conjures the sights and smells of the dingy porno shops and filthy red light districts. A very aggressive and raw atmosphere that could only be created by a life long history of abuse, humiliation and base lust. A real sense of originality here. Highly recommended.

Exordium - In Warth Principle (CD)

Selbstmord - Dawn Of A New Era (CD) - this reeks of pure hate. Strange but somehow balanced production, excellent riffs and insane vocals. Highest recommendation. Cannot believe I did not know this project previously.

Will Over Matter - Might of the Planet Eater (2xCD) - Even better than the debut. Much more variation and little bit of the queasiness factor of the first album has been removed but more intricate song structure and more interesting layers have taken its place.

A very aggressive and raw atmosphere that could only be created by a life long history of abuse, humiliation and base lust. A real sense of originality here. Highly recommended.

Robert Jurgensen is the main force behind this project along with Arthur who did some drumming for Air Conditioning. I'm pretty sure Franco had nothing to do with this. I agree that it is great, amazing really. It is one of my absolute favorites from 2009 and in general, especially for the "Black Metal" influenced Noise styling. I am hoping it is not a one time thing, but it may be considering the story behind it, but another release from this project would make me very happy.

Thanks for the info, I heard somewhere it was Franco so I just kind of assumed.

w-o-m/bizarre uproar split lp

This split is killer. Both WoM and BU are on top form. The second WoM track is probably my favorite with these strange sort of backwards effects on the loop or something. I can't really describe it. And I like the sampled (?) vocals that run throughout.

[RG]

Mania/BU - Charnel Heap
Control - Deadly Sins
Control - Affliction
Immortal - Blizzard Beasts
Bathory - The Return...

[ConcreteMascara]

Control - Deadly Sins (CD-r)

Bizarre Uproar - Teurasjate (cassette)

Enslaved - Frost - Yggdrasil with that folk-y intro, complete with a mouth harp, is one of the best Enslaved tracks. period.

Goatmoon - Death Before Dishonour (cassette) - So I digitally ripped this last night and the b-side does not match up with the tracklisting which has 10 tracks but there are 13 or 14 depending on how one short keyboard track is counted. Does anyone have the full correct tracklisting for the b-side of this re-issue?
