Comfort Knife
*150 copies limited edition. 2022 stock* We are proud to present the debut album from Anjilla who is one half of Autoerotichrist. A startling and confrontational document of sheer noise textures from the immortal corpse or the corpse you can’t get rid of. The unstable and disturbing currents of riverbed noise clattering across the rocks of silt cliffs bubble up before receding again down the reverse side of the waterfall. Super crushing heavy electronics - Ophelia has risen from the creek and wi…
Nothing Matters
*300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Yes, another Folkstrom album out on OEC. And this is for sure best Folkstorm album ever: True elite industrial noise punk! A mix of best white noise a la Whitehouse and a sort of Cabarte Voltaire dance machine. The Swedish master of Industrial Power Electonic Muzak is giving here a class of how the genre should be made. Several tracks will become hits for a very, very long time. You are warned: buy or die withought knowing the true sound of p/…
Piper Club
Piper Club is the choral narration of a heinous suburb. Infinite solitudes, brutal relationships, hyperviolence and addiction, concrete landscapes and puddles of mud. Names, pictures, small geographies corroded and humiliated by obscene writings on the wall, these are the fragments that put together Piper Club’s first album. Unfiltered northeastern Italy, it’s anatomy dissected by trembling hands. Raw power electronics with harsh elements, contaminated by the most morbid hardcore. No synthesizer…

“I’ve seen some people saying that English National Ballet’s Le Corsaire is so out-of-date it’s risible to see it staged in the 21st century. Sex trafficking, men in black with scimitars in Istanbul, pirates trading slaves across the Mediterranean, rich fat men rubbing their jewelled paws over f…
Integrity Of The Preconscious System
*2022 stock.* Conceived between Saitama and Berlin, this album is a collaboration between Japanese junk metal noise-master Masahiko Okubo (Linekraft) and Italian rhythmic heavy electronics pioneer P/S (Cazzodio, Naxal Protocol). A bludgeoning combination of the analogue pulsations of vintage Italian power electronics, the furious overdriven metal percussion Linekraft is renowned for, and the trademark mechanical saturated electronics of Cazzodio, assembled with the earsplitting esthetics of Japa…

For this occasion sounds and words were collected by members of Thee Grey Wolves, Wertham, Con-Dom with the help of other anonymous co…
Initial Shock
*2022 stock.* Knurl sits among a very small handful of Canadian harsh noise acts to debut in the 90s and remain active to this day. Among the likes of Ryan Bloomer (Flatline Construct), Sam McKinlay (The Rita) and Pierre-Marc Tremblay (Âmes Sanglantes), Alan Bloor was the first. Coming off of playing in hardcore punk band Binge of Violence, Alan "found" noise by accident while doing performance art, but it had always been a source of interest for him: “While I was working in welding shops I used…
III
"Texture. A nice word, wouldn’t you say, settling into the audible dis-course with whiffs of sophistication, complexity, depth. The Oxford English Dictionary gives us "the constitution, structure, or substance of anything with regard to its constituents or formative elements". Merriam-Webster offers "the disposition or manner of union of the particles of a body or substance". And here, courtesy Barstool Mountain, III, a deep-dive into fractured reservoirs of textural dis-course, whiffs of smudge…

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