The Alceste
A new chapter in The Rita's singular trajectory - an artist who, despite his widespread appreciation, continues to be alone on the forefront of radical and challenging exploration of harsh sound. "The Alceste" is a return to a more layered technique, but still continuing to pursue the minimal, almost percussive sparse crackle of the recent “King Richard III” process recordings - but now in rapid-fire clusters, conjuring McKinlay's muse the 2-Stroke Engine more vividly than ever. Source recording…
Inconsequential
This is the final pulse of a dying giant’s heart beat. "Inconsequential" is Haynes consciously channeling the God of cold industrial, Anenzephalia, and coming out on the other side with a totally sovereign statement on authoritarian dread. An album that transmits the adrenaline soaked anxiety of the merciless advancement of the process. Nagging, nauseating oscillations, nervously braying spinal screeching, skull resonating ambience. Utilizing a more partitioned layering of sonic elements than hi…
Split
An inevitable and sensible split release between two of today's most unconventional projects, both consistently pushing the boundaries of contemporary Harsh Noise by fearlessly incorporating limitless experimentation drawn from tried-and-true tape music techniques, as well as aspects of electroacoustic and free improv.Both artists have a tendency to collect seemingly random and bizarre sources that are then crammed together into an elaborate found sound collage akin to a sonic puzzle. Each part …
Hack Conduit
Lo-fi wall noise muck from the mind of Canadian artist Barrett E. Lediard (Toanche Dwelling, Rotmans, Vast Field Magnetism, etc). Hack Conduit is the epitome of terms like "muddy" and "blown out", recorded straight to tape and sent directly to AAD headquarters on said tape in order to capture both tracks in all their filthy hiss-ridden authentic glory.3" disc with printed label & 3 panel cover art housed in polycase.
Helios
AAD warmly welcomes Tim Olive to the family. Canadian born but residing in Japan for many years, TO has been involved in experimental music spanning more than two decades and has collaborated with dozens of great international artists and labels alike. Armed with a minimal setup of metallic pickups, springs and scrap metal, TO has mastered his sound by amplifying acoustic objects that are then played like a free jazz musician tinkering with a pile of broken guitars.

Carefully Upon This Hour
AAD proudly presents "Carefully Upon This Hour", the follow up to muttering's 2022 cassette "Iron Angel, Please Keep Quiet". Subdued amp buzz and clattering acoustic objects echo in the distance of what sounds like a large decrepit room, gradually building up into a roaring thunderous mess of twisted scrap metal and feedback that abruptly submits to quieter reverberations...only to be disrupted with one last blast of abrasive rumbling junk noise.
Animal Motherfucker
At last, the debut full length CD by New Grasping Machina! This project has made quite a name for itself in recent years and should be familiar to most noise heads at this point, due to being so tirelessly active both live and recording wise. Luk Henderiks is an actual singer-songwriter in various actual bands playing actual music...however, the enthusiasm and consistent focus Luk puts into NGM makes it obvious this is also a big priority, as well as operations of their DIY-style CDr imprint Mec…
Spirit World
Prolepsis has been one of contemporary Harsh Noise's best kept secrets for the past couple of years, although i've done my best to put people on to the project, which is not easy considering their minimal online presence and short list of physical only self-released titles (that honestly tend to outshine a vast majority of hyped releases by more well known artists).
Until now this Michigan-based project has only been featured on AAD's "Life is Fucking Stupendous!" compilation, but the brief soni…
Sacred Heart of Reinvention
Wow, this is unreal -- the first full length album by Slacking on AAD? What a privilege to do this landmark release, which will surely be looked back on years from now as a crowning achievement for the label, in the same way that Creation Records must feel about being the one to have put out "Loveless". From the first time i heard this project i was stoked in a way i hadn't been since first discovering Harsh Noise. It was immediately apparent that i was to be in total support of this project as …
Playing The Flute Down Baltimore Pike
*50 copies limited edition* Dead Door Unit is the solo noise moniker of Ken Geiger, a prolific experimental and metal musician from NJ. Vocalist for the death metal band Blemish and one half of the junk noise duo Master Grave Services, Ken has been releasing high test tape noise as Dead Door Unit since 2022, and for years before that under his own initials. DDU is a sonic scrapheap of mangled degradation. Junkyard sampling, vertigo-inducing loops, and careening feedback tangle together in twiste…
Perverted Architect
Stripped-back harsh noise / death industrial from Finland’s underground. Lo-fi production recalls best of 90s noise, fans of Slaughter Productions take note…
