Endless Coast
Nordic microsound operatives-turned-noise metallers Jazkamer (or Jazzkammer as they are also known) team up with legendary American underground pioneers Smegma and No Fun head boy Carlos Giffoni (who for this disc is listed as a member of Jazkamer) and make one unholy racket. Far from the overblown formless din this could have been, all parties do a magnificent job of keeping their more explicitly destructive tendencies to a minimum for much of the record, instead resting much of their attention…
Mondo Paradoxa
Constructed over the period of two years via mail collaboration this is a great and forceful collaboration between two artists that each have made a name for themselves with their unique approach to making sound.

Negative/Offensive
A project in celebration of the work and influence of mysterious UK (anti) artist noise outfit The New Blockaders as constructed by Houston, Texas black whips and male-on-male noise pioneer Richard Ramirez (Black Leather Jesus et al) and the sadly departed Japanese harsh noise maestro Koji Tano (MSBR). A mail collaboration where each artist would send source materials to be decomposed by each other. Fantastic walls of brutal shard skum splatter taken to points of demented anguish and resultant c…
La Mutazione
A milestone originally released in 1985 on the legendary Broken Flag label. Many people say La Mutazione is the darkest piece of music they have ever heard and it´s hard to disagree. This compact disc edition comes with a previously unreleased bonus track and with updated artwork and 12-page booklet explaining the history of Toniutti's work. A classic for any fan of MB, Ramleh, or simply the Broken Flag label
In Hoc Urbia Miazi
After more than 28 years the seminal contamination by Maurizio Bianchi / MB called "Sacher-Pelz" is finally back with dyslexic hollows in the hypertoxic forewarning of scrupulous connoisseurs: "In Hoc Urbia Miazi" is its irrational title, and you should take note of this for your survival ! Uncompromising & best quality old-school industrial-noise like in the very early "Come Organisation" times by this Italian Cult project! Scotomatous production subdivided in seven concrete evidences, realized…

The Ontology Of Noise
Mastered by Denis Blackham. The Ontology of Noise researches the dark associations of post-black metal. No traditional instruments are used on the album and all techniques are digital in their application. There are almost no arrangements or layers, but the pieces consist of single streams which change intuitively. This makes The Ontology of Noise a concrete journey through an abstract language evolving around light and darkness, nature and artificiality, and sometimes even takes the form of a s…

Carboniferus
Zu have just finished mixing their new cd, which happens to be also their Ipecac Recordings debut and features collaborations with Mike Patton and King Buzzo of The Melvins . “Carboniferous” cd comes after one year of consistent touring in quartet with Patton. The album opens with an amazing, almost’ techno-hypnotic’, bass and drum assault only to be rudely interupted by what sounds like an insane, distorted saxophone. Time signatures are all over the place, but not out of control, which adds a…

Faces the Firing Squad (1978-81)
Third Door from the Left was a project formed by Raye Calouri (now in the band Hydra) and Kevin Thorne (We Be Echo). Both met at the TG/Cabaret Voltaire-Gig in 1978 and decided to join forces and make their own kind of music. The result of those session recordings between October 1980 and Augsut 1981 has been astonishing and a classic of its genre. This classic Tape-Release is in line with the best Throbbing Gristle releases and as serious collector / listener to TG you just can’t miss this cla…
