The Heat Of The Hole / Temporary & Successive Stages
*In process of stocking* While “no description necessary” is the most fitting description for anything with the name Kakerlak on it, I am sensitive to the fact that there may be a new generation of harsh noise enthusiast emerging who have not been properly exposed, due to his relative elusiveness in recent years. Kakerlak is one of the elite HN projects active since the mid 2000s, and a defining artist of the genre. His sound wields the most powerful elements of mid 90’s Americanoise as broad br…
Final Judgment
Tip! *In process of stocking* Wyatt Howland is not only a force of noise, he is an institution. For nearly two decades, he has been producing some of the most potent and ugly industrial harsh noise around as Skin Graft, both on tape and live in the flesh. He has also inspired scores of noise soldiers through his fully committed and unpretentious attitude, never seeking limelight or chasing clout, but having earned his crown by putting in the work and keeping it real.
“Final Judgment,” originally…
Sacred Violence Noise
*In process of stocking* Active in the top tier of the noise underground for over 15 years since his teens under numerous aliases, Vill Van Gorder changed the landscape of modern American harsh noise in 2017 by summoning the avatar Worth and releasing the "Blinder" LP - a pure harsh noise record with a singular sound and aesthetic that re-introduced Van Gorder to the then floundering scene as an artist who creates works of totality, challenging established tropes of what entities like ritual, ev…
Midwestern Companion
Tip! *300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Grain Belt was a project formed in 2008 in Minneapolis by Joe Beres (Willful, Small Doses label), Oskar Brummel (Wince, White Centipede Noise) and Sam Stoxen (Baculum, Phage Tapes). The goal was basically to make noise as possible with just a few pieces of scrap metal and distortion pedals. For several years, it was treated like a real band with proper rehearsals, frequent live performances and a small tour in 2010. This CD compiles all p…

1989
*30 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* The latest album of Brandkommando, one of the most important Polish Power Electronics projects released by Zoharum. As in the case of previous publications, here we are dealing with a kind of concept-album referring to a specific topic. 1989 is dedicated to testimonials of history that took place in that year in Romania, when the oppressed community opposed the dictatorship of Nicolae Ceaușescu and his wife, leading to the capture, quick trial …

Cloud Cock OO Grand
**Limited Edition of 299 copies.** Merzbow came roaring onto the Tokyo scene in 1979. To this day, the project remains one of the most prolific and aggressively forward-thinking acts in experimental music. Initially a duo of Masami Akita and Kiyoshi Mizutani, before settling as the moniker of Akita alone, the project took its name from German artist Kurt Schwitters' pre-war architectural assemblage, The Cathedral of Erotic Misery or Merzbau, and quickly set out to challenge entrenched notions of…

A psychedelic touch, cascades of electronic noise and vocal belching mixed together constitute the ingredients of Mademoiselle Anne Sanglante Ou Notre Nymphomanie Auréolé, the double-barrelled named for Masonna. Yamazaki “Maso” Takushi created Masonna in 1987 and simultaneously he started recordings on cassette tapes and seven inches for his own…
Highdrophobia
Limited Edition of 199 copies. Solmania is a Japanese noise music project founded in 1984 by Masahiko Ohno. The hallmark of this amazing artist, who builds his experimental electric guitars from spare parts, is his freakish ability to use the stringed instrument by generating absolutely unique sounds, both in his live performances and recordings. The guitars used by Masahiko Ohno are multi-neck guitars and harp guitars and take on extremely bizarre shapes, using unconventional body shapes, extra…

However, if you’re expecting straightforward noise/power electronics, you’re in for a surprise. Mixing even danceable electronica rhythms, organ music and moments of serene ambience wit…
