Industrial

The first-ever reissue of Atrax Morgue’s seminal album Death-Orgasm Connector, originally released in 2003 by Slaughter Productions, encapsulates the raw essence of Marco Corbelli’s power electronics, melding harsh noise with industrial undertones and dark synth-electronics, solidifying Atrax Morgue’s place in the experimental music landscape.

Limited Edition 12″ Vinyl in 199 copies.

Power Electronics

Marco Corbelli’s artistic journey began in the early 90’s. Under the pseudonym of Marco Rotula, he started to release a series of fanzines in A5 format. The first was The Pleasure Agony, followed by Sick and Murders. The aesthetics of these first fanzines were very sophisticated and the content deals with topics that will follow Marco throughout his artistic career: sadism, schizophrenia, insanity, murder, psychosis, necrophilia, diseases, and most importantly death. In 1993, heavily influenced by his obsessions, Marco Corbelli began his musical activities creating the Slaughter Productions label and the Atrax Morgue project. Greatly inspired by Italian Power Electronics act The Sodality, with their 1987 LP Beyond Unknown Pleasures and from projects as Whitehouse and Brighter Death Now, pioneers of a minimal, evil and visceral electronic, Atrax Morgue released his first tape In Search Of Death which will be followed by a series of amazing cassettes in the succeeding years.

Black Metal

By command of the Hermetic Order of Ytene, this offering from Auld Ridge is a journey through Europes cold and uncompromising past of bloodshed and treachery.
Lyrically inspired by events such as the Albigensian Crusades, the life of English heretic John Oldcastle, the events of the Nibelungenlied as well as the massacre of the Burgundians under the Huns.
Musically, the album combines the folk elements of Auld Ridge with more traditional and melodic Black Metal passages that truly hold within them the essence of the past and an uncompromising rural ferocity that is hard to describe! A masterfully crafted album from start to finish!

Black Metal

AUSTERE are back. The Australians return with their third album – and they are as laconic and without any pretensions as when they went into extended hibernation after the release of their sophomore full-length “To Lay like Old Ashes” in 2009. Entitled “Corrosion of Hearts”, the new tracks stay true to the path that AUSTERE have carved for themselves out of solid black metal bedrock. The multi-layered and harsh yet often dreamlike guitar tapestries woven by Mitchell Keepin are complemented by the emotive drumming of Tim Yatras, who also contributes keyboard splashes and cinematic soundscapes. In the typical manner of these Australians, their songs are still meandering, flowing streams of musical thought of epic proportions. On “Corrosion of Hearts”, AUSTERE’s brand of black metal has evolved into a more mature and defined form of expression, which is hardly surprising as both musicians were active in other bands during their hiatus. The duo also took more time to craft their new songs into exactly what they were supposed to sound like than before. With greater experience comes more determination.

Depressive Black Metal masterpiece available again on LP.

Black Metal

One could argue that French black metal has been dead forever: ravens pick at the corpses of the Black Legions still, those dried-up sinews not fit for consumption no matter how many generations removed, and urban decay has covered much of the prevailing paradigm for nearly two decades, incorrectly assumed to be a uniting (and uniquely) French expression. One would be right, too. AUTARCIE return at the right time, not so much shouldering this burden as carrying a spiritual weight that’s solely concerned with naturalism and its myriad portrayals thereof. Romantic is this path, in the purest definition of the word, and Apogée.Ivresse.Agonie is the brilliant canvas.
