Amph/Arv & Miljö Untitled (Nordiska Ljud): First release on the new Järtecknet imprint. Amph puts forth so much more variety on this one. Really stunning progressions and the atmospheres are all just right. Fuckin' A! Arv & Miljö keep it pretty straight-forward, but I still really liked it. Having spent most of my life living near highways and railroad tracks, there was something personally enjoyable about this. Looking forward to not having to refresh the Total Black bigcartel every day while I await for their Resurser to actually drop, hehe.

TVE MZK021 (Mazurka Editions): More incredible left-field noise from Mazurka. If you enjoy the Arv & Miljö side of the split (or L.A. County Morgue) with a little old school Eric Lunde style thrown in; this is right up your alley. Like being stuffed between the floorboards to rot. Coma setting in while plumbing and footsteps are muffled around you.

Hazard Field/Bridge (Ash Int'l): Really stellar electro-acoustic-y, field recording-y, drone-y LP "recorded in the forest of Kungs Norrby, Borensberg, Sweden." Haven't dug into the Wood CD yet, but if this LP is any indication of what's to come...I'll be in love.

Eric La Casa/Cédric PeyronnetLa Creuse (Herbal Int'l): Really intense field recording-based experimentalism from this duo. Goes through many peaks and troughs of chaos and calm. Very excited to receive the Zones Portuaires DCD soon.

Werewolf Jerusalem - Don't Open The Door (http://richardramirez.bandcamp.com/album/dont-open-the-door)

Levas

Scott Miller/Lee Camfield/Merzbow - No Closure - quite good. I'd say drone with some noisy stuff happening around

Troum - Syzygie - This one for me is leaning towards the better stuff of Troum.

Wicked King Wicker - Evolving - good, but not very impressive

VA - Hour of the Wolf - great compilation. Joel Danielsson's material perhaps was least enjoyable for me with Bladh's being the top point in it, but all in all - great.

Con-Dom - Live Assault 1 / Live Assault 4 - not a fan of minimalism, but this was interesting from historical point of view.

Edward Ka-Spel - Tanith and the Lion Tree - Missed all the LPD shows in Lithuania, but Edward Ka-Spel was always doing something more interesting aside too. Good disc.

Halo Manash -  Wesieni Wainajat - Finnish masters of rituals returned and I was very curious about it. The stuff is different from what I remember about HM, somewhat repetitive and hypnotic and not the same HM. Is it for better or for worse - don't know.

I.Corax ‎– Cella Phantasma - this one is very nice, primitive old-school stuff. Recorded 15 years ago or so. Great.

Arktau Aon ‎– Ikuisuus Näkyy Luiden Läpi - Also top notch material from Aural Hypnox. And the packaging of all three is great.

Con-Dom - Subjection - just finished listening to it. Well, interesting and I'm glad that industrial recollections successfully carries out the mission.

Emme Ya - Chthonic Transmission (Abysmi vel Daath) - Perhaps it's cultural things and the question of perception, but while I don't question Halo Manash and related projects' honesty and purity of idea etc., then there are projects that seem just fake. Emme Ya is ok in sound, but I cannot find sincerity in this album. Maybe it's because I'm retard.

Sorfeum - Ancient Rocks - Wow. This was a real surprise. Primitive synth ambient which for some reason works ok to me. Not pretentious, just primitive eeeeooooo etc. Good.

Sala - The Baltic Triangle - more field recordings from Sala. This time in three places besides the sea. Well, conceptual work. OK.

Carved Image Of Emptiness / Zinc Room ‎– Lie, Illusions, Mystifications / Zinc 99,99 - surprised me with how inaccurate description of it can be. But anyways enjoyable material.

The Rita - Retrospective II - Nice release. Tape 2 was my favourite. Most colorful etc. and tape 1. But this is retrospective so all kinds of Rita's stuff is included. Very nice looking box.

Saint oil Sand few latest albums. the band that we share the same "studio" . Perhaps the only SKA albums that I have are theirs. I should buy more.

Natural Assembly - Reduced to Ruin - wow. this was the pleasant discovery for me. it's synth-pop or how do you call it? But good and nice sounds.

Hakaristi

Kakerlak - Ligature Ferment: More of a "wall" sound on this outing, but contains enough variation to keep it interesting.

Macronympha - Baroque: Macro crunch + regular instruments, drums being the most obvious. Brings to mind Dorchester Library in certain parts.

Bizarre Uproar - Teurasjäte: Took a while to hunt this down but damn, it was worth the wait! Possibly my favourite era of BU; harsh junk metal worship puctuated with some tasty acoustic passages. Punishing stuff that's topped off by the usual high standard of packaging from EST.

Creamface - Cum On Clothes: Been awhile since the last CF release but Mr. Creamer returns with the expected no frills grindcore plus a few noisecore blasts thrown in for good measure. Maybe less samples than usual, but Dip for Snacks intro in particular made me smile, heh.

Baxter Stockman - EP 2: Noiserock madness. Slightly different than Punter, which is perhaps more "rock"-oriented in comparison. This is more in line with DNA or Arab on Radar with those Yow-ish vocals at the forefront. Excellent.

FreakAnimalFinland

Stahlwerk 9 "The Grey Ghost" CD
I think I have bunch of stuff from project. Including the "212" - the massive 12 x 7" wood box! But apparently this is first full length album for 5 years and I was surprisingly impressed. Kind of easiness of drenching everything into soothing reverb and mixing together drum machine beats, old vintage songs from records, gloomy machinery and pulsating rhythms...  But it works. Nothing aggressive. Nothing repulsive or violent here. Just gloomy and dark material. Goes well into same area with some Anenzephalia or Stahlnoy Pakt despite sounding quite different from those...

KAI FREIKORPS "Heil Odin" LP
One of those ultra limited bootlegs now done of Freikorps and related projects. This sounds pretty close to Freikorps itself, but little bit more metallic riffs and few acoustic pieces thrown between tracks. Kai's vocals and guitar sound remains always the same.

ANTISEEN
Bunch of 7"s again. I recall few years ago thinking I must have most of bands 7"s, until I went to see discography...  Might have said the same thing last time I went through pile of these.

Last couple of days I've been listening to various songs by Those Poor Bastards:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETO4Qo-yXIU
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7fix4kjTw4

Needless to say, I've been in a mood for something different. I like most of what I've heard to may grab something by them after the holidays.

Also, I have been spinning various LPs from Church of Misery and Electric Wizard plus doing some Mania recordings for who-knows-what.

I'm kind of obsessed with Those Poor Bastards so I'll be doing an order with Tribulation Records soon. I really like Lonesome Wyatt's vocals; very intense esp when  his voice gets to cracking.

Sun Ra "What Planet Is This?" - great extremist 1973 double live CD with lots of noise style synth solos.

And a tipoff for anyone interested in difficult music like this that Leo Records' annual giveaway sale is on - http://www.leorecords.com/?m=christmassale

I recall loving his synth soloing from the documentary on youtube. Great stuff!! Will have to get this album

Vertonen HACE/26,250'/11° 22.4'N 142° 35.5'E (Misanthropic Agenda/Crippled Intellect Prod): Juicy double-sider of not-just-tone-drone like many of the other works I've heard. It's a cliche, but in this case one that rings true; there's so much to be revealed between the sounds. Certain elements, while holding you in their meditation, act as a mask to less caressing sound manipulations that are afoot. Great inspiration too. Instead of some bedroom transgressions of an immature doofus; the sounds are inspired by the heights and depths of the earth. Front side photo is of "the 1960 dive by Jacques Piccard and Don Walsh in the bathyscaphe Trieste to the Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench, the deepest known point on earth". Back side is a breathtaking view of K2. Been listening to some other works of Edwards', but this takes the cake.

ConcreteMascara

Kerridge - A Fallen Empire 2xLP - aggressive pseudo-techno that reminds me a lot of Pan Sonic at their darkest and noisiest, but with slower tempos and less playfulness. good stuff for the winter.

Roly Porter - Life Cycle of a Massive Start LP - is massive a too obvious word to use to describe this album? it's an awe-inspiring mix of neo-classical, dark ambient and glitching noise, without a hint of cheese. really can't recommend this enough.

Caligula031 - Domino cassette - "War Is Not Over Yet" might be my favorite track Marco has done.

Unclean - Manhood cassette - raw as fuck. been listening to this one on repeat

Currently listening to a download of "The Strange Adventure of Edgar Switchblade #1: Krampus Unmerciful" (Tribulation Records)- it's a story with haunting/dramatic music, electronic sounds, & sound efx. It's pretty cool & would be nice to play on Christmas to the kiddo's.
