The original epicenter of their creative endeavors was Osaka, where Mikawa collaborated with luminaries such as Yamatsuka Eye, JOJO and others. However, the trajectory of Incapacitants evolved with a move to Tokyo, where Fumio Kosakai joined forces with Mikawa, solidifying the current duo that continues t…

A new Sissy Spacek album in the realm of free-improv, but a great expansion of the perimeter. This power trio features Charlie Mumma on drums, Masahiko Ohno (Solmania) on guitar, and John Wiese on organ. Unlike anything that's come before.

A Stranger To Extreme
Western Siberian crime electronics centered around the figure of serial killer Vladimir Mukhankin. Feedback, vocals, tv samples, no computer editing.
...It Is Death.
A true gem of modern power electronics, with a vision and a personal touch and not just another boring rehash or real cheap version of the classics, as you can mostly find in recent years, especially when centered around such eternal themes. Absolute pinnacle in the art of Mike Golen, definitely not a new name that you should also know for his contribution to bands such as Sea Of Shit, Paucities and Winters In Osaka. ''A grim exploration of death, depression and confronting one's own mortality. …
Lascivious Progression
Mexican dark sleaze at its finest. No cheap stuff here, but a long running obsession, deep explorations and knowledge. From the mind behind Sodomy from Beyond, Hiroshima Dust, Sangre and Muerte Violenta publications etc.
Living in a Wet Dream
Hi class postmortem from Russia from this extremely talented visionary.
Year Zero
Barbarian Red Terror PE from the old cold world. Their most powerful statement to date, after two already impressive efforts on Styggelse and NBM. In the works for ages, recorded two times and submitted in its most powerful final version just before the pandemic broke loose... The perfect soundtrack for these final years of so called capitalist ''civilization'' in humanity's fading glow. Just excellent. Comes with an accompanying 24 page zine featuring visuals and manifesto from the band. So ex…
Like Straw and Meaningless
Cría Cuervos is the personal project of our old pal Eugenio Maggi, active since the 90s, and one of the most discreet, elusive, meaningful participants to 'the scene' that come to my mind when I think about ''italian underground''. ''Like Straw and Meaningless'' continues his new phase started with ''Bovarism'' on JDV moving from dark / ambient territories to a more stripped down yet atmospheric form of harsh noise. First copies come with a sticker.
The Unquiet Grave
New solo tape for our main man Mauro Sciaccaluga [Diazepam tapes, Deprivation, Parassitismo, Spasmo, RL, Sator... and countless more]
Chants, metal, bones.
Un Destino Perfido
Parassitismo from Genova come back with a vengeance delivering an impressive second effort, after a much praised self-titled debut cassette on their home imprint, Diazepam (also reissued on CD by AAD). Eerie, cold and murky synth-driven PE with a piercing dosage of feedback loops and junk / glass wreckage. "Un destino perfido" [trad. "A wicked fate"] has been recorded during a rather black summertime in the band's rehearsal room, located in the glorious Staglieno cemetery; apparently some voice…
Philip K. Dick Volume One
Following well-received releases on labels such as Satatuhatta, Krim Kram, and White Centipede Noise, Cyess Afxzs debuts a new series based on the novels of Philip K. Dick. It is tempting to describe this work as post-noise. But such verbiage is reductive at best.
