chapels | it's just a pause
3" cd-r

Adam Richards (House of Alchemy) has been AT it with his Chapels project the last few months. His ’09 releases have been winners in every way and this one tightens his game even more. Richards crafts his pieces like an ancient storyteller would tell his tales. He takes his time to let the piece breathe, streams of rusty and ragged drones roll in and gain intensity, like earth slowly falling apart at your feet. This whole piece might feel like a classic composer’s take on Wolf Eyes, a tale of urban despair.

CH049
social junk | four chambers of the heart
cd-r

Much needed reissue of this mysterious Social Junk classic. Like a gutter romance gone wrong these three tracks ooze with filth, but in the most gorgeous way. Wailing saxophones cry out while the background fills up with dense percussion, the rattling of chains and an atmosphere you’d most likely find in a possessed rat’s hole in the backstreets of a Bangkok ghetto.

kohoutek | der schnellen geist
cd-r

Forget about that one record you heard that was pretty crazy, this shit right here will leave you gasping for air. Kohoutek bring the pain in the form of the most off the wall freerock album you’ll hear this year. A raucous cacophony of guitars, bass, drums and electronics, totally non-conformant to anything or anyone. Just the channeling of pure, red hot energy.

wasteland jazz unit | barren sect
cd-r

Here’s a record that doesn’t waste time blasting the testicles up your throat! Wasteland Jazz Unit have been sandblasting ears throughout 2008 and it certainly feels like a privilige to kickstart a new WJU year with some of their most putrid Fried Jazz to date. Saxophonist Jon Lorenz and clarinettist John Rich delve deeper into the Great Borbetomagus Saga than anyone else these days but add some extra k’s of Noise crudeness to it to make it sound like freejazz for sewage rat biker gangs. The three tracks on this album feel like huge bolts of reed feedback sandblasting the grease out of your ears. A highlight in their discography so far and, let me quote Jon Lorenz here: “definitely some of the best stuff we've recorded yet”.

mokele mbembe | mokele mbembe
cd-r

Cut Hands headquarters is proud to release the debut album by this Oakland, Cali, band. Lost in a dense fog between Heavy Winged and The Skaters, this outfit jumps from deformed rock moves, acoustic acid and blurry soundscapes to truly fucked up guitarjams and slowjazz voodoo piano. It’s an understatement to say that Mokele Mbembe offer a wide array of sounds on this self-titled album, the opener brings up images of tropical sunsets suffering under heavy monsoons while another track feels like a no holds barred, Japrock jamsession, psych guitars meandering into an unknown, mushroom polluted void. And more…

the julie mittens
cd-r

Oh fuck yeah. Stoked beyond belief to finally drop this. Last September The Julie Mittens dragged their suitcases filled with (un)Holy Fire across the Atlantic to play a couple of hard earned gigs. Their first time ever in the States and they sure realized they couldn’t leave without leaving behind scorched earth. Cellars got torn down and basements wrecked, a band on fire from Syracuse to Virginia. This release is evidence that the tour was a massive succes, recorded live in Albany NY, the Dutch trio unleash two face melting jams much in the vein of Fushitsusha but with the spirit of the most out there freejazz units (think late period Coltrane, Raphe Malik, Evan Parker et al) branded in their way of playing.

So here’s the deal; edition of 100 with 100 different covers of photo’s taken on tour by the band. Carefully selected by the Mittens with the name of the band + name of the recording screenprinted on each one. There’s not one double here.
Also, this release has an important significant other, go check out Abandon Ship for a very, very different live recording and 100 different covers as well. Be sure to buy theirs too later this week because those people suffering from that damned economy need it!

CH045
uneven universe | wormhole
cd-r

It’s still a damn shame Haunted Castle is no more but sometimes something great has to make way for something awesome. And at this point, the unbridled rawness of Uneven Universe is a fair match for the brooding beauty of Haunted Castle. Comfortable in the grimiest parts of Michigan’s underground gutters, Dan (Haunted Castle, Cardboard Sax) and Holly (Cardboard Sax, with John Olson too) put a twisted dirge into the world of fucked up freejazz. Raw and uncompromised chunks of saxophone collide with a barrage of molten electronics. Often creating an Industrial vibe but transferred to the freejazz wastelands so many great bands of today roam in.
Edition of 50 with art by Matthew Junkin.

jason rohm | suicide
artbook + compilation cd-r

Originally intended to celebrate the first anniversary of Cut Hands waaay back in Januscary but since it’s never too late to celebrate in the oh 8 here it is and goddamn if it wasn’t worth the goddamning wait. Jason Rohm paints a grim picture that’s both realistically nerving yet bizarrely funny. The tale of a desperate soul in a world that’s tied by rules and akward questions, almost comic like in subtle detail. Suicide has 32 pages of black and white drawings, with text in English and awkward Dutch. The compilation provides a harrowing soundtrack. Tunes by Andrew Coltrane, Sick Llama, Warmth, Droughter, Bottom Feeder, Raperies (Like Draperies), Ex-Cocaine, Robedoor and Josh Lay.

teeth collection | ojo
3" cd-r

Matt Reis is one of the few guys able to create a piece that’s both dynamic and dense while being haunting and flat out nightmarish at the same time. Just think of the soundtrack to your teenage years, this is the one that will haunt you when you’re gone. Negatives of cruel nightmares raging through long forgotten parts of wasted brain. Minimal blurts of metal clatter, reverb, echo chambers, face down in junkyards, cheeks rubbing metal while your ears fill up with rust. The definite final countdown.

cadena muerto | paranoia is total awareness
cd-r

Cadena Muerto is a new demon brought to life by Slow Listener’s Robin Dickinson. Dickinson’s harsher alter ego if you will, the rage inside in the shape of wretched guitarnoise, deformed pieces of snare fuck, mangled metal and visions of Derek Bailey recording inside metal shredders.

astro/hiroshi hasegawa | strata
cd-r

Since founding C.C.C.C. in the early nineties Hiroshi Hasegawa has been exploring the psychedelic edges of the worldwide noise underground to become one of the godfathers of the current noise scene. Cut Hands is extremely proud to release Strata, which to me stands as one of his most out there sets to date. Here he manages to use his loud, psychedelic experience to launch a bold cosmic journey into the darkest corners of space. Perfect synthesizer build ups to crushing episodes of oscillating synth, pulsating into infinity. 75 copies, in slimline dvd cases. Artwerk by fartjerk.

enfer boréal | eldorado

Creepy ambient electronics by this relatively new project helmed by Frenchman Maxime Primault. A total trip that lingers somewhere between soothing meditation and psychedelic nightmare. Waves of drone that wrap around your head like a thick blanket while the psychedelic undertones take you to a place where those ugly ass nightmares are born.

vorg vessel | the queen of fish mountain / illuminated by stripes
cd-r + 3" cd-r

Another stunning project courtesy of psychfiend Adam Kriney (La Otracina, Dragonfrynd). This man does not sleep, nor shouldn’t he. Just like on the Dragonfrynd album there’s no drums on this double album. No guitars either this time. Just miles and miles of tripped out organ jams. Straight lines get transformed into a sprawling, blurry ocean of dubby overtones. Space age slowjams….this must be what shroomheads in love dance to. Sweet.

suishou no fune | mystic atmosphere
cd-r

Mystic Atmosphere welcomes back the unpolished, raw around the edges side of these interstellar psychonauts. Slightly reminiscent of their first Holy Mountain album, Where the Spirits Are. Tail’s drums splashing like mossy boulders into the Pacific, primitive pounding Moe Tucker style. Mystic Atmosphere contains four tracks blessed with psych guitar panorama’s soaked in holy reverb, a slowed down monster jam sounding like a drone version of a Mainliner or High Rise track and their ever mournful, lost in life wailing. Second track is one of the heaviest Suishou No Fune tracks I have ever heard. 3 minutes of Fushitsusha-like venom, a concrete reinforced mini-jam while tracks 3 and 4 dive deep into the cosmic psych oceans previously explored by Les Rallizes Denudes. Rawest Suisho No Fune record to date, no doubt.

korperschwache | the healing power of paranoia
cd-r

New round of Korperschwache blackness, cranking out a grimy version of a hot Texan night. Industrial black metal, suicidal drone-noise. Every hint of light/humanity severed by heavily buzzing riffs, sludge drums and sickening cries from the most desolate of netherworlds. Just corpses, no paint. 70 copies in slimline dvd cases with cover art and insert by Korperschwache’s RKF.

hunting rituals | red spectre
3" cd-r

We all know Canada’s sick underground deserves more than the putrid mud it crawls in everyday but give these guys a nice and warm bath and chances are they’ll turn it down. They just love the dirt so much, can’t help it. Here’s Scott ‘Cloud Valley’ Johnson (ex-Fossils) getting down and dirty. Like a big pile of decaying noise coming back to life again. Deep trenches filled with junknoise and some seriously sinister reeds blowing it all into pieces. Canada’s sick underground has never smelled so bad.

cd-r

Hverfanda Hvél is Sachiko’s (Overhang Party, ex-Kousukoya) third solo
album, after the purple vocal haze of You Never Atone For and the
equally breathtaking Kunado, released last year on Utech. This one
contains two, gutwrenching live performances at Tokyo’s Loopline. First
track features Reiko.A of former Merzbow fame and travels through a
thick, hazy fog of shimmering wordless vocals before collapsing face
down in a pool of electronic voodoo damage. On the second, shorter
piece Sachiko breathes out her zoned out mantra’s and washes of cosmic
vocal beauty as if she’s honouring Yoshi Wada’s monumental spirit. A
mesmerizing mayhem for real.

Sick collection of mangled Industrial soundscapes by this new Canadian cat with ties to the Hamilton, Fossils crew.

cd-r

Crushing two piece thick new album by some of the fiercest electronic damagers to come out of Sweden. On DFX Joachim Nordwall, Henrik Rylander and Jean-Louis Huhta channel two twenty minute bolts of post-industrial sonics. First piece puts up a fog of hazy electronics reminiscent of early Broken Flag tapes by the likes of Maurizio Bianchi and Giancarlo Tonutti whilst gradually morphing into harsher ground. The second piece starts like a lost Wolf Eyes side with a multitude of sinister effects and Industrial beats. Crazy energy building, a whirl of voices lost in a bottomless well, Skull Defekts seem to do it for no less than the most impressive of dystopian soundworlds. 100 copies inside cardstock covers by Gio/Canedicoda and an inlay with photo by Lisa Nordwall.

6majik9 | the space between
cd-r

Sucking up fluids from middle earth and releasing them through weirded out psych jams, 6majik9 represent a blossoming Australian underground centred around the ever incredible Musicyourmindwillloveyou label, Brothers Of The Occult Sisterhood, Terracid, etc. Enough loner vibes on this one to loose yourself in for a couple of days on end. Rural murmur, entrancing drones, minimalist percussion trails, baby’s crying, uknown magickal devices emitting electronic incense, the smell of wet leafs, the moon bigger and brighter than usual. 69 copies in square dvd cases with b/w artwerk and inlay.

rob funkhouser | he is a lost soul as ever there was
cd-r

66 minute long tonal excercise that works the fringes of the current free-drone underground up to the cosmic paradise shaped by astral travellers Ash Ra Tempel and the minimalist magic of Steve Reich’s Drumming. Funkhouser has that focus of a determined soul, never rushing, calmly pushing Cosmos to desolate plains where the dark purple mood of the album cover lingers across the horizon. Music for the breaking of a gloomy autumn dawn, coming down from whatever trip you’ve been on, weedsmoke still curling up from the bong…not a jacker in sight. Break in and zone out.

Evil karma drones by up and coming hypno-bruiser Slow Listener aka Robin Dickinson. You might think of drone as soothing, meditative, maybe even sleepy but that’s not what makes this record, at all. Much in the vein of Birchville Cat Motel and Jazzfinger, Slow Listener takes out the soothing parts and injects his dronescapes with prickly venom and surges of white noise.

It’s actually the first Kriney release that doesn’t feature him on drums, in fact, there’s no drums at all here. Just the thrill of entrancing guitarfeedback, kosmische tone workouts, touches of swirling Japanese psychrock and amplified Ash Ra Tempel meditations.

First dvd release by this bunch of freakzone jammers and it’s definately one that stands out from the pack of music dvd’s released nowadays. Sudden Fear comprises slowed down footage from the 1952 film noir by the same name, starring the mighty Joan Crawford and Jack Palance as they get stuck in a web of crazy paranoid romance. The Weirdos soundtrack the black and white scenes with one of their most elegant pieces to date. Entrancing, psychedelic swamp magick, you know how they do. All with amazing eye and ear for the visual aspect of this multimedia performance. Originally performed for the Experimental Film & Music Night in cooperation with the Humboldt International Film Fest. 150 handnumbered copies, in slimline dvd cases with drawn cover art by Jason Rohm, an insert and a medium sized poster.

Much needed new slab of blunt stabs in the ear by these Midwest dirt junkies. The Terror squad bring the post-New Blockaders junknoise with the swagger of a couple of kids at their first coked up punkshow. They mean no harm, yet they bolster fear. If you take the most frantic parts of Wolf Eyes circa Dog Jaw, the intensity of Metgumbernone and a load of heavy machinery falling apart at the same you’re getting somewhere. Mapping a Burial brims with metallic clang, anxious screams, the throbbing of broken effects and a load of shit you can’t even begin to dissect.

People’s Parties offers 4 space huffin’ guitartrips through hostile ground, thorny fields and fuzz solo’s buried underneath thick layers of kosmische drone. The real scorcher though is the gorgeous 5th track, floating back down to earth with some of the most delicate guitarplaying I’ve heard this year, alongside melancholic spoken word samples which makes these 90 kgs al woozy and sentimental. Like watching an aged slideshow from some deceased family and feeling it, totally. 75 handnumbered copies in slimline dvd cases with colour art and insert.

Century Plants mitglieds Eric Hardiman and Ray Hare (also making a mark as a part of Burnt Hills) have shared bills with Dead Machines recently and are bound to shake things up wherever they plug in their tools. 3rd ‘official’ release. 50 copies in polyvinyl sleeves with bah-boom artwerk.

3" cd-r

Another Dutch talent in the Cut Hands stable that I’m very proud of. Dude built a synth into an old Soviet geiger counter, check this picture, I wouldn’t mind having that on my coffee table! Krkkl moves like a thick mudslide stuffed with mutated synths, sheets of metal being stroked, brushes of cello, shortwave transmissions that get massively interrupted by swirling effects and even some algorhythmic programming type stuff. Serious mindfuck potential. Jacobs manages to piece it all together into a cohesive and extremely overwhelming 24 minutes. A definite highlight in the current Dutch noise scene.

Super bleak slab of muddy graveyard electronics by the man who helms the Skulls of Heaven label as well as rock his cock out with the likes of Zodiac Mountain, Hintergedanken and Jex Thoth. Clay Ruby finds the path that leads through the frostbitten trails of early Industrial pioneers but with a bit more of a sickening feel throughout. As if he’s purposely trying to nauseate the listener with geysers of bubbly noise. On Menstrual Hoax, Clay Ruby aka Wyrdskull hooks us up with two tracks, one is a studio recording and two live jammers packed in one thunderous caveman electronics track. The collaboration with Mumber Toes is extra sick, feels like drowning in blackened quicksand. End life.

Total all OUT experience that moves from Taj Mahal Travellers like spirituality to the vox vs. guitar/bells/chime hypnosis of Grouper/Fursaxa and the pastoral synth styled drone panorama’s of Tangerine Dream/Popol Vuh/Klaus Schulze.

A moment to cherish: first ever Sword Heaven release on European soil. This Ohio based destructo unit took their Swans inspired, doomfucked sound to Little Brothers in the fall of 2006 to pulverize the spines of the unknowing. Several dudes went home with blunt riffs in their eyes, one lady was reported to have stolen one of the grooves and stabbed two bums outside of the venue with it. This album captures the show in full effect, two insane tracks raging with bloodsoaked intensity. Faceless Nameless has ten (!) people on stage firing away on their instruments, pure psyched out trash orgasm.

filthy turd | schoolgirls in chains
cd-r

Another stinkin’ Turd is loose! And believe me, whatever you’ve heard by the Turd before, it’s NOTHING like this one. Schoolgirls in Chains was recorded at a girls school (!) and you can hear the dude got inspired by fantasies of uniforms, ponytails and, well, chains and stuff. What you get are minimal horrorvibes highlighted by crushed musicbox melodies, tension, lots of tension and release, some sicko unexpected release moments. I don’t know what his filthy ass been thinking of while roaming those corridors but I’m sure he had the time of his life there. Turd himself sez: “The 'big band' samples on the track is a bunch of girls in music class getting ready for exams!” Yeah right perv. Only 43 made. Fuck.

cahier | jour ouvrable III
cd-r

Third and final edition in Marko Neumann’s Jour Ouvrable series and without a doubt the heaviest and most intense Cahier so far.

It all builds up real nice from drawn out noisescapes to intenser, filthier heights before falling face down in a pool made of the sweetest piano melody ever.
