"the shadow of the torturer" offers a profound sonic immersion into the twilight world of gene wolfe’s the book of the new sun. this opus captures the somber solemnity of urth - a horizon so distant that the sun itself falters. it serves as the definitive soundtrack to a decaying empire, the cyber-khanate, where technology has ascended to the status of a mystical relic and culture remains frozen in macabre ritual.

ON THE FORGETTING OF LANGUAGE: to contemplate the forgetting of language is to witness the word’s erosion until only the tongues of smoke and ashes remain. we inhabit an era where the soul’s syntax dissolves into the profound gravity of the stillness, a quietude where we encounter the unconscious dream of redefining god as darkness. in this state of un-naming, the biological yields to the ontological; you realize that within you all blood is black, a river of ink awaiting a script that no longer exists. moving beyond the transactional nature of speech, as we brace the mountain, we offer the self - a final surrender of the ego to the unyielding earth. lured by the pull of the shadows, we move toward a soundless, formless, serene darkness that defies modern categorization. to forget language is not to lose intelligence, but to transcend it; it is to finally become one with the emptiness, where silence speaks with a clarity no tongue could ever achieve.

THE RORSCHACH GARDEN achieves a masterful synthesis of vintage synthesis and contemporary electronic poise. “trust the process” inhabits a liminal space where nostalgia and futurism converge, navigating with refined precision the tension between melancholic melody and rhythmic resilience.

I had a lot of reservations releasing this album. Maybe I didn't think I would survive the plague, maybe I wanted to hurt the woman who had scorned me, consequences be damned. But I must say that Last Wish is a fiction, born out of the demise of a sexless relationship. At the end, I didn't love her; and I just felt pity for her. But I was still very angry. I applied that anger to noise, to a longer structure that pushed my limits, to see how long I could hold that anger. That rage toward somebody else. At least, that's how I remember it. The woman this story is about is barely a ghost in my erotic memories. There are others that haunt me, that I obsess over; but not her. When Foul Prey released this on cassette in the summer of 2020, they said: "This release plays out like a pained monologue of futile love. Intensely personal and nakedly candid, two long form tracks trace shadowy episodes of sex and friction through explicit spoken word and dark, heavy electronics. The sonic craftsmanship on show is masterful. Seamlessly weaving the sensual with the ascetic passages of velvety atmospherics, dead pan percussion and blistering harsh noise provide the backdrop to an ever captivating narrative. Last Wish draws you into a world where you might too feel the strange, awkwardly alluring sensation of the private becoming public. A truly devastating document of erotic-electronics." Black vinyl with a full color single pocket jacket with a large 12x36 centerfold insert. Limited to 250 copies. Mastered for vinyl by Grant Richardson at Hex Audio Labs.

I have been listening over and over again to Genfärd and I can hear Genfärd playing in the Abbey of Humility. A crushing non-presence, a violence that is so quiet and so fulfilling. The grinding noises, the floating voices are meditative and quietly lead up to the Apocalypse as our technological Nihilism demands its price, its toll. This is the sound of the last industrial machines trying to keep up the last human era before pure Being (a return to the Greeks!) will surface again in its utter splendour and awe. The music demands our devotion to the Sacred, our humilty, and at the same time we enjoy the Sadistic Nature of Being, its cruelty which we can hear through those creeping and screeping sounds. This is an awakening into a state of utter torment and inhumanity. A non-comforting, a nauseating sense of urgency, radio-frequencies of a past war, a lurking primitivism captivate the listener, take a hold of him and turn him into a Victim-Executioner: the loss of Self. The music is master! In the distance metallic sounds intersect with suffocating ambient clouds, like the gas clouds described by Jünger in his war novels. The invisible, yet foul smelling Death. Poisonous clouds as messengers of Death that come and go with the wind. The interplay of Death and the Elements. A martial beating of drums that announce the coming of the Svn who gives herself relentlessy and without mercy. Caught within the trenches of Life we must face the inevitable, our Sein-zum-Tode and the Joy before Death that welcomes it. Within Eorthe the putrefaction is at work and this also symbolizes the Alchemical process within us as Adepts of ancient paths, such as the Seven-fold Way of the ONA. This music echoes the Abject core of our inhumanity (and for the chosen ones: a sur-humanity) – the Bataillean abject matter which is alive and pulsing. Genfärd enriches us, flows through our being as its sound is an excremental one: “Sexual activity, whether perverted or not; the behavior of one sex before the other; defecation; urination; death and the cult of cadavers (above all, insofar as it involves the stinking decomposition of bodies); the different taboos; ritual cannibalism; the sacrifice of the animal-gods; omophagia; the laughter of exclusion; sobbing (which in general has death as its object); religious ecstasy; the identical attitude towards shit, gods and cadavers [….].” (Bataille, the Use-Value of D.A.F. de Sade) Bataille identifies two polarized human impulses: excretion and appropriation. These are our excremental, orgiastic impulses vis-à-vis our institutions, traditions, and both come natural to us and are developed through us, and not by us. The two pillars of the Temple of our Acéphalic Weltanschauung symbolize the extreme “human and all too human” duality of these two impulses and we regard them as an enormous force, as an UR-manifestation of the in-human, the acausal, the black flame within us. Truly religious (re-ligare: the connexion with the Numinous) communities/nexions, dictatorial religious (mysticism of the Blood) states are a prime examples of communities where these impulses are given their freedom and where they both reinforce each other despite their seemingly opposite nature. One must look beyond their appearance and see their cosmic interplay as the cosmic itself is a violent and living organism. We regard das Ganz Anderes, the Bataillean heterogeneous, the radical Other as an important emanation of the Sacred that encompasses everything. Genfärd is a collection of audible heterogeneous matter, throbbing and active base matter having its own eternal existence. The artist has been able to dive headlong into the Volcano of our impulses and after a careful and alchemical Work has been able to extract the most quintessential Numinous sounds. Solve et Coagula! Behold the ominous Silence within them. Let the sounds of Genfärd guide you. Von Sanngetall Pro-printed CD with 16 page full colour A5 booklet

Allow me to take you to a place where you might not quite feel like yourself. A place where everything starts to look a little blue. It’s not exactly clear how you got here, or how long you’ve been here. And that sound you hear… it’s not exactly pleasant yet you feel drawn to it. You might look down and wonder if your feet are still on the ground. You might look up and wonder whether you’re sinking or floating, but you’ll be certain that this can’t be real.
