Melee
Shanked is Wyatt Howland (Skin Graft) and Roman Levya (Plague Mother, Slit Throats). "Melee" is an unrelenting outburst of Midwest harsh noise, the distillation of the frustrations, ugliness, and anger forged in the post-industrial wreckage of Cleveland, Ohio. Six tracks of nonstop high-energy combustion. Monolithic heaviness abounds, but "Melee" has plenty of dynamism to keep the energy rush in a constant state of escalation. The union of two heavyweights of contemporary harsh noise. Mastered b…

"Carrying Your Halo" is the …

Super-heated auditory munitions across six new tracks.
The Death Of Myself
To celebrate the tenth anniversary of New Forces we are excited to reissue an album from the label's first batch of releases. At the time, Koufar's "The Death of Myself" represented the closing of the project's first chapter. A sonic requiem delivered at maximum volume.

Content focused on the politics and history of Lebanon eschewed genre tropes for something …

Enteha

They embody a free-spirited approach to music making whose improvisational process can be traced to a distinct period of Europe's post-industrial landscape. More than two decades of ambitious solo and collaborative work would solidify both Chalk and van Luijk as masterful craftsmen exploring the tension between composition and free improvisation: their individual lists of collaborators boas…

Waves of Time
On Waves of Time, Gazzi lets rhythm dissolve into a slow emotional tide, stretching piano figures, hushed electronics, and carefully placed silences into music that feels less like a set of tracks than a single, continuous act of contemplation.

Schwingungen
2025 Repress. Ash Ra Tempel's masterpiece, an immortal record of stunning beauty. As for the info we refer to Julian Cope´s review in his “Krautrocksampler” Book, Publisher "'Beware of Schwingungen!' That should be the large sticker on the front of all copies of this record. For it is dangerous to be casually introduced to something that is life-changing, as I found out to my cost when first listening to this record. It all starts fairly simply and without any cause for alarm – 'Look at Your Sun…
Strange Flash - Studio & Live '78-81
Grown Up Wrong! Records is thrilled beyond belief to present the long awaited anthology of material by the legendary Lipstick Killers, who blazed a trail in late ‘70s post-Radio Birdman Sydney before gigging with the likes of the Gun Club and the Flesh Eaters in Los Angeles where they crashed and burned in 1981.

Arctic Salon
*300 copies limited edition* Planned in the early 90's executed in the early 20's: The Arctic Salon. Another Cranioclast Expedition, this time to the Pole. A long time between planning and execution, but much shorter than the time between the first fake reports of having reached the North Pole on foot across the ice and the first expedition that really made it without motorization. But also a long time in which things in the Arctic and Antarctic got worse and worse and continue. Double LP almost…
Cancer
*250 copies limited edition* Originally released in 1992 via Tesco, »Cancer« was recorded one year earlier by Thymme Jones, Dan Burke, Mark Klein, Mitch Enderle, Chris Block, and Jim O'Rourke.
This one was mostly a group effort focused on a dark ambient atmospheric environment and experimental minimalism that crawls under your skin. Mark & Thymme’s heavy synth is omnipresent, Mitch & Chris scraping every piece of scrap metal they could find, Jim’s extended piano & tabletop guitar is apparent, t…
