Hole in the heart
* Black Vinyl Edition * On its initial release in 1987 on Broken Flag, Hole in the Heart was a radical reinvention of Ramleh. The band had split in 1984 after two years of power electronics noise assaults and it was assumed this would be more of the same. Listeners were in for a shock though.

Painting“You have dared to torture the female who was so certain he would always be adored! You have scourged her, flogged her in all her pride; you have emptied her breasts, creviced her belly, blown up her buttocks, twisted her legs, battered her face! And over it all you have spread a noxious color, composed of all the reds of blood and the greens of putrefactio…

Skrag--
*Limited, numbered edition of 50 copies.* 'After the passing of Keith Brewer last year, I talked with Peter Zincken of Nihilistic Recordings about what happened. Taint was among the first noise projects I discovered and I’ve been faithfully following wherever Keith went. This journey turned out to be highly rewarding as Taint and later Mania became a great source of inspiration. In 1989 Keith released his first tape as Mysogyny on Big Body Parts in The USA and Nihilistic Recordings in the EU. Th…
Suicide Souvenir

Atemporal Activity
'A piece that will continue to be talked about in the vast catalogue of Italian industrial/noise artist M.B. (Maurizio Bianchi), 2016, new domestic release.

Twisted ambience, a historical invention of M.B.'s. A universal industrial classic. A destructive force that is more like an ever-expanding electronic cell than noise…
