Boris - Japanese Heavy Rock Hits Vol. 1 [7"] (2009) [24.96FLAC/FLAC/V0]

I admit I did raise some expectations of this being some new drone release as I was listening to the intro, however this punky mix of psych rock, noise rock, bordering on pop at times, is still listenable. Reminiscent of Smile and Pink but with somewhat more detailed songs.

This is volume 1 out of upcoming 4 volumes, which I will probably post too if they turn out to be good.

Printed on purple vinyl.

Current 93 - I Have A Special Plan For This World (2000) [FLAC/V2]

I guess I was planning to post this sooner or later. Blog named after this.

David Tibet reading a collection of loosely related poems, written by the cult poet Thomas Ligotti, over some dark ambient soundscapes and sound manipulations.

Karlheinz Stockhausen - Helikopter-Quartett [Arditti String Quartet] (1996) [V0]


Uploaded by request.

Helicopter quartet. A string quartet recorded with each musician in a separate running helicopter mid air, with the noise of the engines and the blades. Not Stockhausen's best but does build up a tension, an anxious atmosphere. Might be a good starting point if you're looking into Stockhausen, it depends on where you're coming from, though I'd anyway recommend Elektronische Musik over this. 

The Youtube clip above is from the film about Helikopter Quartett which I can more heartily recommend. I'm considering uploading an encode of it here later. Stay tuned.

Natural Snow Buildings - Shadow Kingdom [2xCD Edition] (2009) [V2]

Fantastic new double album from Natural Snow Buildings. On par with Slayer of the King of Hell, Night Coercion in the Company of Witches and The Dance of the Moon and the Sun. This is the double CD edition, there is also a triple vinyl and double CD edition.

Comes with a comic.

In Slaughter Natives - Resurrection (2004) [FLAC/V0]

Follow up post to: Enter Now The World

His final release after 8 years since the last album. Subtitled "The Return of a King" comes off as slightly conceited, but what a great return. In Slaughter Natives has created some of the finest martial industrial to ever come out of Cold Meat Industry.

8 Eyed Spy - Live (1981) [320]

One of the very few Lydia Lunch-related projects with actually redeemable qualities, none thanks to her however. It is also said that she hated the band while she was in it. A very short lived story, literally, the bassist George Scott III, probably better known for his efforts in James Chance & The Contortions, died of a heroin overdose the same year as they released this live recording on cassette and the band split up.

The Bear Quartet - 89 (2009) [V2]

The new album of Bear Quartet. It delivers a little of that darker experimental stuff we hear on Eternity Now but it's mostly in a much more accessible pop or rock format which I don't care for much. Anyway Bear Quartet is a band I respect despite releasing albums like these, and I'd listen pretty much anything they'd decide to release anyway.

Charles Bukowski - Poems and Insults (1973) [V0]

As much of a treat it is to read Bukowski it's a whole different experience to hear him read it for you. 2 live performances where he read various poems including many of his best.

Boredoms - Super æ (1998) [FLAC]


Uploaded by request.

Most of you know of the Japanese experimentalists Boredoms already. I think I might prefer this album over slightly younger, slightly more accessible little brother VCN, mainly because of all the fantastic experimental sounds found throughout this album.
