999cuts(イスラエル)リリース Softenon Babe is a French industrial music project. It draws inspiration from the eerie and captivating sounds of 90s death industrial as well as earlier harsher experiments by industrial music and PE pioneers. But it's more than just music; it’s a way for Emma – the individual behind it – to tell stories of disability’s treatment by society and other medical tragedies. This approach results in a unique blend of sonic exploration and narrative, crafting an immersive experience that leaves a lasting impact on the listener. This is the debut album of French project Softenon Babe which is now getting its physical release. This EP delve into 20 minutes of bleak death industrial with heavy dark ambient undertones, exploring historical cases of food related death epidemics. In this case, the medieval dancing manias, the man-made famine in 1930s Ukraine and the Mad Cow Disease of the 90s. Mastered by Thomas Garrison (aka Control). For fans of Megaptera, Brighter Death Now, Gruntsplatter, Murderous Vision.

999cuts(イスラエル)リリース The demon from Finland returns with a brutal new album. Active since 2015, Maskhead uses self-made oscillators, effects and metaljunks to get filthiest possible soundscapes to support the content of every release. Drawing inspiration from sleazy grindhouse movies and extreme sexual behaviors. "Passion Bruises" is one long track of total mortification in noise format. It's a heavy, crushing, feedback-driven anti-audio monster! If shoving metal inside a meat-grinder was a fetish, this is what it would sound like - this is for maniacs who loves it HARSH and SICK. The CD comes in an ecopak digipack with original twisted collage artwork by Ben Schmidt. CUT 029

999cuts(イスラエル)リリース "The Thirteenth Tribe" is Ulican's, as-of-yet-unreleased debut album, from 2001. It captures the experimental spirit of the early 2000s, blending trip-hop, electronic, and ethnic influences. Created in collaboration with Mary Kelly, who wrote and sang most of the tracks, the album reflects a shared love for artists like Portishead, DJ Shadow, and Mercan Dede. Initially shelved due to dissatisfaction with the mix, Stephan Friedman has revisited and remastered the recordings, bringing a fresh polish to the eclectic soundscape. The album also features unique cabalistic elements, with samples from the mystical songs of Rabbi Baruch Shalom HaLevi Ashlag. This long-lost collection is a rare glimpse into Ulican's early foray into goth electronica. Recorded in 2001 at Aggressor Studios, Framingham, MA, USA. Remixed and remastered in 2023 at Valkoinen Pöllö Studios, Tel Aviv, Israel. CD edition, digipack. CUT 030

999cuts(イスラエル)リリース VCOBT or "Vicious Circle of Black Thoughts", is the industrial/experimental noise project from Helsinki, Finland. Previous recordings from this project includes: one 7", a collaboration LP with UND and appeared on "Terässinfonia 5" - a compilation by Freak Animal. "Guilt Trip" is the first full length tape-release from V.C.O.B.T. On this album the project submerges in even darker moods than on previous works, maybe with less junk noise and with a more atmospheric approach while maintaining the lo-fi aesthetic found on previous releases. It contains recordings from 2012-2013 which were assembled and mixed in 2023 - next to the audio taken from 'Find New Homes' 7" EP, which was originally released 2016, by Blame the Victim. Cassette edition, jewel case. CUT 031

Dunkelheit Produktionen(ドイツ)リリースCD Long live the new blood! While others prefer to worship ashes, Dunkelheit presents Spur on to XS, a promising newcomer from Eindhoven (The Netherlands), the secret Noise capitol of our time. And Power Electronics as we know and love (or hate) is shamefully underrepresented nowadays, this artist pays hommage to the genre's legacy by releasing some of the nastiest filth heard in ages. „Indulge in Primal Ecstasy“ is indeed a strong full-length debut that showcases many of the attributes that contemporary sonic violence is known for. The suave BDSM graphics hint at the malice and dominating perversion that Spur on to XS stands for. Bruised flesh and dark urges that are indeed primal and as feral as it gets. Soundwise, the low rumbles and tasty metalwork may remind some of Finnish maniacs Contortus or some of the more acquired Green Army Fraction releases, while still focussing on the raw power of Feedback PE. The elements are all somewhat traditional, but the way Spur on to XS mixes and rearranges them seems very fresh and nifty, even to well-trained ears used to Post Industrial ambrosia. Clattering, buried but strong vocals, Corbelli-esque synthesizer work and animalistic screeching - „Indulge in Primal Ecstasy“ has it all. Get it, before it's too late! https://youtu.be/RrEN67kF3Vw?si=EgR7xj2V2IRo8hQu

Dunkelheit Produktionen(ドイツ)リリースCD Mastermind of Italian Power Electronics namely Corrado Altieri just brought us an amazing new assault of heavy electronics... , Bella Italia has been a breeding ground for genre-defining Industrial Noise and Power Electronics projects since the beginning of the art form. Among the flag-bearers of contemporary audial terrorists is Uncodified. Fronted by Corrado Altieri and sporting an impressive list of releases on labels like Unrest and Old Europa Cafe, Uncodified has been enticing fanatics for more than 10 years and it with great pleasure that we announce his new album „Erased People“ on Dunkelheit.

Dunkelheit Produktionen(ドイツ)リリースCD From the timeless mists of underground obscurity, the new entity CONFLAGRATION CHAMBER emerges. Pitch-black Post Mortem elixir from the cold and unholy Russia, featuring members of Ulvdalir, Horthodox and Womb11. Any true fan will immediately acknowledge the intense old school feel of the Material presented on this high Profile debut full-length. It is definitely Power Electronics in its purest form, but there are distinct traces of Death Industrial sickness to be found in the vitriolic compositions. Tortured, brutish Vocals like a thunderstorm of decadence poetry echoing from the dismal industrial labyrinths of imperial factories. CONFLAGRATION CHAMBER is a true beast that presents some of the most ambitious and raw recordings of our day and age. No trend, no compromise, just the somber eminence of Eastern and Post Mortem Power Electronics fanaticism. https://dunkelheitprod.bandcamp.com/album/the-maldoror-sounds-in-three-acts

ZOHARUM NEW EXPERIMENTAL ART(POLAND)リリース、CD folded in 6-panels digipak On May 14, something that has been expected for a long time will happen; after the cassette EP "Noise Tape #1", a collaborative album with the industrial-metal band GASH FAITH, a split with noise projects DYSTOPIAN CONTROL and MNICH, also after a lot of enthusiastically received concerts, the full-length album LARMO will finally be released. "Alarm" is 12 heavy electronic tracks, based on massive sound, mechanical rhythms characteristic of industrial genre with elements of rhythmic noise, illbient, techno and bass music. Thanks to the freedom with which Mirek draws from a wide stylistic spectrum, he extracts those elements that allow him to fully use the potential and create structures and sounds characteristic of the strong and very suggestive message of LARMO (Larmo Means Noise). The great diversity of individual songs was also influenced by the participation of invited guests, i.e. Małgorzata Wójcik aka GOSIA (including NEXT VICTIM, SKORUP/A), Patryk Rzeszutek aka IHS (BIESY, GLITCHANGEL), Paula Pieczonka aka PAULA (MOIRA, BRUDNE CZYNY, END FOREST) ​​and Łukasz "Pachu" Pach (HOSTIA). The whole thing is completed by MONYA with her remix to "Flat Breath". https://zoharum.bandcamp.com/album/alarm

ZOHARUM NEW EXPERIMENTAL ART(POLAND)リリース、CD folded in sixpanels ekopack A brand new album from the project transformed from its parent group by pioneers of the industrial scene, Kevin Tomkins and Paul Taylor (ex-SUTCLIFFE JUGEND). "Cute" is 11 premiere tracks characterized by a massive, sharp sound like a surgical scalpel and an equally strong message to which the British duo has managed to get their fans used to over the years of their activity. We are dealing here with music that fits the aesthetics of Power Electronics with influences from other industrial genres, and also composed and produced at a high level, refined in every detail and recorded with particular attention to the final sound. A must-have for both fans of the band and those looking for intense, expressive and unique art based on sound and words. https://zoharum.bandcamp.com/album/cute

ZOHARUM NEW EXPERIMENTAL ART(POLAND)リリース、CD folded in 6-panels digipack. Edition of 350 copies "Time Frost" is an imaginary record of the mutation process of sound locked in ice and transformed over millennia. Like ghosts of music trapped in the ever-changing permafrost. The album was originally released in a series of publications from Glacial Movements. Virtually unavailable in any form for many years, over time it has become a hard-to-find rarity, sought after by fans of the British project. This reissue changes that state of affairs. The material included on this CD was remastered by Robin Storey. For the publication, the graphic design was also changed, this time based on photographs by Rapoon founder. https://youtu.be/hhRO5gxHPaI?si=LYX5TdU7MMtieGgi

ZOHARUM NEW EXPERIMENTAL ART(POLAND)リリース、CD folded in digipack printed in gold and black. Limited edition of 400 copies. On the latest album, Robin Storey once again invites us to a musical journey closer to the exotic world of the Orient, sparkling with many delicately woven miniatures, based on fragments of melodies, heard as if in the deep sleep phase, when sounds and images reaching us from a distance gently fill the space, giving the impression of an integral part of it. Out of nine tracks filled with tribal rhythms, vocals and a wide palette of colors, an extremely coherent, slightly pulsating ambient emerges in the spirit of the best Rapoon albums. "Skulls On The Plains of Turkey" is also a kind of musical story, inspired by one of those moments when the surrounding space and seemingly ordinary events make us reflect deeper, and which the musician remembers more or less like this: Sitting at a table in front of a bar by the sea in Chania, watching the crashing waves and enjoying the beauty of this place, I watched a ball of white light moving from behind the eastern headland and disappearing behind the west. She was moving at speeds impossible for a boat or plane. I looked around to see if anyone else noticed ... but everyone was just staring at the glass screens of their phones. In Terminator 2, young John Connor asks the terminator "we're not gonna do this, are we?" I mean people. All this can be read somewhere in the small phrases and compositional structures on which this meditative, slightly reflective concept was based. https://zoharum.bandcamp.com/album/skulls-on-the-plains-of-turkey

ZOHARUM NEW EXPERIMENTAL ART(POLAND)リリース、6 panel digipack CD “Dust of Souls” was previously released by Ultra Mail Prod. Limited to 100 copies release was almost entirely sold out in pre-sale leaving many Rapoon fans empty handed and aurally dissatisfied. Trying to meet the expectations of those who weren’t lucky enough to get this album Zoharum picks up the gauntlet and decides to reissue this important piece of Rapoon’s discography. Album presents 8 tracks of trance inducing rhythms and sounds. With a use of processed acoustic instruments, electronics and ambient scapes Robin Storey takes us on a journey to the unknown lands and spaces. Near East ethnic influences are served in a form of loop based brain captivating compositions. Think of softer side of Muslimgauze but more ritual and hypnotic. As usual former member of :zoviet*france: delivers a great piece of listening, where you can fully appreciate his years of experience as musician and independent artist. This is experimental music in its best. Album comes in 6 panel digipack limited to 500 copies. https://youtu.be/VN7WmuDIAl8?si=abLXoH9GW1e4z4-Z

ZOHARUM NEW EXPERIMENTAL ART(POLAND)リリース、6 panel digipack CD I saw a derelict hotel a few years ago. It was near where I grew up. The hotel had once been by the sea but the seaside had moved away due to silting.The hotel was left abandoned and falling apart. I wondered about the people who had stayed there. I wondered about all the conversations that had taken place there, all the movies watched, all the dreams the guests had dreamed. This album is about those dreams. https://youtu.be/QovsrWzP9k4?si=Q11TAh60nIDanSUz

DumpsterScore(USA)リリース Today we are extremely excited to announce a new 30-minute EP by the long-running Russian-American industrial project Post Scriptvm. Fresh off his amazing EISSTOß LP released by the legendary Tesco Organization earlier this year, we are presented with a dark, slowly unfolding mini-album of his trademark blend of death ambient, power electronics and esoteric industrial collage. Slow-moving bass throbs intersect with deep swirling synth sound design, icy cold drones and fragmented tape/sample collage. Disturbing vocals occasionally fade in from the abyss cohesively melding with the thick electronics as if escaping from within the machines themselves, accentuated by pounding percussion and static bursts. A truly incredible work of darkly surrealist industrial by an artist who has spent the last 20+ years mastering their craft. A note from the artist; "I consider this recording a companion to the tape Тучи над Борском, which was released in Russia in 2016. On that album, I aimed to capture the altered states of mind invoked by the ecstatic rituals of Russia's underground apocalyptic sects. In 2024, I felt compelled to continue and expand that work, as it has become more apparent than ever that humanity is adrift in the annihilating stupor of these abominable hypnotic rites. Секта serves as both a meditation and a curse." Pro-dubbed silver c-30s, with double-sided card stock covers, b/w labels and sliver cases. The artwork for this tape was created by Siberian artist Angelina Filimonov. Limited to 75 hand-numbered copies. https://dumpsterscore.bandcamp.com/album/c

DumpsterScore(USA)リリース Collaboration album between Jonathan Canady (Dead world, Deathpile, Angel Of Decay, etc.) and Andrew Quitter (Regosphere, Concrete Moon, Suburbia Melting, etc.). Heavy stoner/sludge/kraut riffs meet pounding beats and intricate synth/industrial sound design. Not what you would expect from these two! Mutant psychedelic metal for wandering the volcanoes, forests, and waterlogged alleyways of the Pacific Northwest. Pro-dubbed cassette released on Malsonus (includes download code) - Limited to 50 copies on pro-dubbed tapes. https://dumpsterscore.bandcamp.com/album/psychological-morphology

DumpsterScore(USA)リリース VRNA is the long-standing project of Italian multi-instrumentalist and renowned tattoo artist Gianluca Martucci. Starting out in the late 90's he has released a wealth of amazing and understated material on labels such as Slaughter Productions and Old Europa Cafe. With a fluid sound that ranges from pitch black ambience, ancient sounding ritualistic drones and true old school Italian industrial atmospheres. His work can sound like the soundtrack to a forgotten folk horror film one minute, to crushingly heavy the next. Using surprisingly almost entirely acoustic instruments, many different drums/percussion and a often a chanted choir like voice, supplemented by electronics, there is a real uniqueness found in his music in a field dominated by synths and pedals. I've been a huge fan of his work since hearing his Osireion album which came out and blew my mind back in 2004. So it's an honor nearly 20 years later, to be releasing his new tape here on the label! Sequenced like a LP, with very little space between tracks, "Spiritual Fog" starts the album out, slowly bringing in distorted drones, acoustic swells and vague dream-like vocals to lure you into what's to come. This is followed by "Cave Eternal" which brings in waves of thick throbbing bass and heavily distorted drums, paving the way for the equally crushing duo of "Mens Sana / Corpore Cruciati" which close out side A, bringing a doomy almost proto metal groove in. Side B's "Cathedral Inside My Body" continues on with the heavy rhythms, but introduces the ominous chanted vocals he is known for and lays the foundation for the closing track "The Keystone Ground To Ashes", with its flowing washes of distortion, pulsating bass and and eventual desolvation into melancholic trance inducing guitars. https://dumpsterscore.bandcamp.com/album/cathedral-inside-me

DumpsterScore(USA)リリース Regosphere and D/A A/D have been long-time friends. Releasing a split tape way back in 2007, followed by two D/A A/D full-lengths here on Dumpsterscore and the very first Regosphere full-length on Pearson's Snapped In Half label. So it's been a very long time coming that these two would team up on a bleak, bass heavy collaboration. Two 15 minute tracks slowly unfurl through the speakers, taking their time to build into pulsating dark atmospheric pieces that hide in the territory where death-industrial and dark ambient meet. Based around both artists' modular synthesizers, side A grows in detail throughout, building in tension and detail. Quitter's addition of subtle field recordings and the kanjira drum on side B give the second half a more meditative quality, while maintaining the dark atmosphere and impending dread. We've been wanting to do this release for many years, and the time was finally right to make it happen. Dark synth music, perfect to prepare you for the long winter ahead. Digital download includes a bonus drone mix of Dark Gas Nebula. https://dumpsterscore.bandcamp.com/album/smog-transmissions

Phage Tapes(USA)リリース2CD Double CD set of comp/split tracks spanning the last decade by this long-time death industrial artist. Released by Phage Tapes, these are copies direct from the artist. https://phagetapes.bandcamp.com/album/full-of-holes-vol-iii

Dumpster Score Home Recordings(USA)リリースC60カセット Contagious Orgasm should be a name familiar to most reading this. Beginning in the late 80's, he has released dozens of albums on many labels across the world and is well known for being one of the originators of the Japanese noise scene. He has never been afraid to play with many genres though, utilizing field recording cut-ups, harsh noise, heavy percussion, industrial atmospheres as well as more soundtrack-esque songs with detailed sound design in recent years. His sound collage styled mashing of ideas is on full display here, manipulating Regosphere's source material into two dense moody tracks of skittering field recordings, heavy synths and psychedelic collage with many surprises along the way. Regosphere began making harsh noise tapes in the mid-90's under the name Suburbia Melting, before deciding on a name change and refocusing of sounds and intention in 2007. Being extremely excited to work with one of his long-time inspirations, he went all out on these recordings. Utilizing Hiroshi's source material, he spent some serious time in the studio working these tracks over and fleshing them out. Dark shifting ambience, pulsing industrial rhythms, field recording and metal cut-ups along with their shared love of sound track work unfolds over one long collaged track.
