Abyss
It's pitch black, freezing cold and the water pressure is unbearable: we are in the depths of the sea, where sunlight no longer penetrates. The deep ocean remain full of mysteries for man: dark places where only partially known creatures live.
The series that Doom Catacomb has dedicated to the most inhospitable places on planet Earth continues: after the perennial ice of "Polar" and the boiling deserts of "Arid" it is now the turn of the ocean depths. "Abyss" is an inexorable and exciting descen…
The Dark Seal
A recurring dream, macabre visions in which a symbol appears, a seal of a mysterious shape that you have never seen before. The dream becomes an obsession, acquiring details as the nights pass. Details that lead to an ancient dungeon dug into the mountain north of the city. It is not the treasures that can be found there that drive you to search, but the mystery of the Dark Seal. You gather a group of adventurers and rogue like you to face the expedition into the caves: each of you is driven by …
Berserker
Orcus is a fantasy synth champion who made us dream first with the track entitled "The Pyramid" included in HDK Dungeon-synth Magazine n.3 and then with the incredible album "Heroes of the Last Glare", a crystalline masterpiece of epic-synth music. Finally Orcus returns, with a thundering Sword & Sorcery-themed album, dedicated to the heroine created by the writer Bludgeon: Lorelei the Berserker. The album is the soundtrack to the hard-boiled adventures of the bloodthirsty half-naked barbarian t…
The Empire Of The Necromancers
Gosh!! A smelling, rotting ooze invaded the HDK offices!A bleak and morbid tape spins in our ghettoblasters: it's "The Empire of the Necromancers" by the necrophilist musician Doom Catacomb, a hymn to the dark recesses of humid dungeons...

The Short And Foolish Quest Of Sylovar And Hrud
NEVER APPROACH THE GODS OF THE IMMATERIAL PLANS WITHOUT POWER, KNOWLEDGE AND A CLEAR MIND! Heimat der Katastrophe is very happy to present the album by Silencio Permanente, a dungeon synth champion from Argentina! The album, based on an original screenplay by the underground heroic-fantasy writer Gian Spazz, is a little, vintage ambient jewel, halfway between the golden era of New Age music and the 80's horror movies soundtracks. In this album the dungeon-synth meets the great names of the ambie…
A Warning To The Curious
"With the Fortean transmitter channelling everything from Hitchcock, Ken Russell phantasm and The Legacy to the music of the Amicus and Tigon film studios, pastoral hallucinations and veiled break beats, Boscoe summons up a BBC workshop of quirky magik, Lovecraftian atavistic shadows, suspense and whispered apparitional calls and dialogue from the supernatural archives. If you dug last year’s Night Blooming Flowers album collaboration between Drew Mulholland and Garden Gate on the same label, th…
13.13
Recorded in Los Angeles in 1982, 13.13 exists as document to the pandemonium of specters and potential serial killers who twisted the California Dream into a waking nightmare as they snaked through the boulevards, back yards and basements of a sun stroked paradise turning into a blood soaked inferno of fear, paranoia, panic and lust killings. Lush musical textures provided by members of seminal art punks The Weirdos - Dix Denney, Cliff Martinez and Greg Williams create a hypnotic backdrop to Lun…
Prismatics
Red Translucent Vinyl. The new solo album from Cate Brooks is a bright and bold collection of corporate electronica, partly inspired by commercial and TV music of the early to mid 1980s. It captures a moment in time where analogue technologies are just about giving way to computers and digital media. Brooks is a prolific and accomplished composer and on Prismatics she brings to bear a deep experience and understanding of electronic musical equipment. As well as a seasoned production engineer she…
VHS
Tip! Do not adjust your tracking… Spun Out Of Control is proud to present its second ever release from Gary Collins. ‘VHS’ follows up Collins’ 2018’s tremor-down-the-spine inducing ‘Suzy Went Missing’ album, also on sold-out cassette, and prior releases on the Giallo Disco label. An Italo/horror disco flavoured homage to the one-time joys of renting forbidden ‘video nasties’ on cassette, each track on ‘VHS’ soundtracks an imagined movie from 1979 through to 1990. Titles including ‘Flesh Cult’, ‘…

Kosmoloko 3
We are delighted that Kosmoloko 3 becomes a reality on Galakthorrö’s 30th birthday. The concept hasn’t changed: Kosmoloko 3 is still a label sampler. Like its predecessors, it features only artists from the Galakthorrö label. No leftovers, no duplicates, no rehashes, ten tracks of exclusive material, no title has been released in any form before. Karl Runau’s contribution comes as a surprise after countless years with no signs of life. As a colleague from the early days of Galakthorrö, his contr…
Amer Armor
The debut EP Kelc’h-Lizher is now followed by Mode In Gliany’s first full-length album Amer Armor on Galakthorrö. The unique synth wave of Boris Völt is freed from all exhilarating characteristics. The minimal wave pleasures of the early days are making way for that melancholy that is inherent in the music of Mode In Gliany anyway. Nourished by Boris Völt’s deep connection to his home on the north coast of Brittany. Instead of blood, the cool water of the seas flows through his veins, cold wave,…
Sore
The third album by Da-Sein fits seamlessly into the duo’s previous sphere of work. A gloom-ridden sound panorama, packed full of pulsating bass frequencies, swathes of feverish synths and noise-rhythms, spreads itself out before us. The voice of Kas Visions combines the manifold creative streams of Da-Sein to a cohesive whole. No matter how cold and unemotional the voice is, on this album it’s often the last human signal before the blackness absorbs the listener’s soul. Power electronics violenc…
