Sshe Retina Stimulants
The SSHE acronym stands for Super Sound High Energy which, when linked to RETINA STIMULANTS is intended to conjure a strong citation of sensorial synesthesia, with hyper intense acoustic frequencies inducing overwhelming visions.---In fact, it all goes down into the subliminal arena, where no real distinction exists among neural signals and cognitive dynamics, where pulses and ideas become a fluid stage for matter to be born out of energy.

Manuale di cultura industriale (Book)
*2023 stock. Italian language edition* This edition of "Manuale di CUlturea Industriale" entirely revised, updated, and increased by more than fifty percent from the previous edition edited by Paolo Bandera, remains the reference text of an uncompromising counterculture that has been able to resist the blandishments of the market for twenty years.
Music, performance, radical philosophies noisily sing the end of the industrial age. From here all "hard" musical forms have taken inspiration, from p…
Unburdened Underpass
Tip! “… extreme existentialism, an act of pure and unadulterated audio commentaries about old age, the transformation of libido and the irreversible path to death … naked and raw as spilled guts, while sophisticated as a post-sociology tome, an exercise in psychology dissection… deadly / funnily serious and fully unpredictable… voices explodes like dying worms and howling monsters, noises like falling stars and sudden earthquakes, frequencies like injected poisons and rumbling cascades… words in…
Metamorfosi Asincrona e Discontinuità Biologiche
*200 copies limited edition* Hot on the heels of some striking recent productions, Corrado Altieri (Uncodified, Candor Chasma, Monosonik, TH26) and Paolo L. Bandera (Sigillum S, SSHE Retina Stimulants, Iugula-Thor, Ensemble Sacrés Garçons and much more) join forces for a brand-new collaboration, deploying audio science-fiction with a profound body horror obsession, in love with the intoxicating radicalism of extreme sound tissue surgery. Recorded, manipulated and assembled through a three-year p…
Jenseit Der Anerkennung
Following many previous encounters of various nature (collaborations, split releases, sharing live line-ups, etc.), Joel Gilardini (The Land of Snow, Mulo Muto, Psychic Drones) and Paolo Bandera (Sigillum S, SSHE Retina Stimulants, Iugula-Thor, Ensemble Sacrés Garçons and much more) get back together for a very different new project “Jenseits Der Anerkennung”, released under their own names. An isolationist exercise in sonic psycho-geography, the album takes a series of Berlin-inspired images as…
The Sound of Sadism

Deluxe foil block cover on 180 gram vinyl ** The classic rests on 180 gram vinyl for the first time. originally released on the noble compact disc format as a co-release between malsonus and crowd control activities. commissioned and complied by Jonathan Canady.

Krionika Soshiki
In the early 80s Paolo Bandera was a founder (along with Eraldo Bernocchi) of the monumental collective post-industrial Sigillum S. In 1993 he created his solo project SSHE Retina Stimulants ("Super Sound High Energy" Retina Stimulants), devoting himself to sharpen the edges of concepts and noise extremes. Krionika Soshiki is one of his most representative works of the first period of solo activities. The six tracks run through subliminal arenas, with flows and ideas collapsed to state of …
Remote Aktion
Two years after releasing SRS' 'Heaven 39' 2LP, Diophantine Discs is happy to release a record of new recordings by Sshe Retina Stimulants! Following in a vein similar to his other recent recordings this year, we are presented with four tracks of very abstract and experimental noise music. Using a variety of treated and processed instruments and electronics, this is surely one of the most complex, intense, and dynamic works by SRS. Sshe Retina Stimulants, the project of P.NG5361.B (Paolo Bandera…
Souls And Waltzes From The Telegraph Frontier
Following the trails of 2008's "Remote Aktion" LP on Diophantine, Sshe Retina Stimulants is back with a brand new slice of vinyl, stretching even further the conceptual and methodological framework of the previous work... starting from acoustic guitar as the only source input , environmental feedback effects and real-time manipulation / sampling have been applied to booze up the outcome and create a screaming thunderstorm of delighted noise. Totally dense bubbles inflate and burst like org…
