HIVE MIND - BENEATH TRIANGLE AND CRESCENT
Some of the most
dark and industrious Hive Mind material to date, originally released on
Heath Moerland's Fag Tapes imprint back in 2008. The more structured
and rhythmic construction of these pieces is infused with an
inspiration taken from 90s German and French heavy electronics projects
like Dagda Mor, Inade, Derniere Volonte and Les Joyaux de la Princesse.
Recorded heavily under the crushing presence of opiates, even the song
titles themselves play a part in casting the negative shadow of this
release. This contains some of Hive Mind's earliest forays into both
melody and industrial rhythmic elements as the pieces drag, thud and
shiver with a distinct energy not found in much of the earlier drone
work. Auto-melodic tones come paired at times with crude, hand-hammered
slews of notes while Holger's trademark synth-drone rumbles beneath
like a kept beast. Each piece progresses to nastier and darker
territory, erupting and collapsing at the end of the title track.

JFK - NGANGA
JFK is a solo
project of Anthony Di Franco of RAMLEH/SKULLFLOWER/AX. In 1987 JFK
released their first album on Broken Flag. In 2017 JFK release their
first full-length album on Chondritic Sound.
Present here are the dense metallic tones characteristic of Di Franco's
earlier AX pieces, constantly changing and shifting between crushingly
oppressive and blissful overtones. These shards of sound spin seemingly
out of control, at times kept in place with the assistance of staccato
thuds, or the occasional blast of machine-gun rhythms. The pieces fall
where they may throughout most of the album, a caustic and dangerous
creation. As the record draws to a close, the sounds of distress and
collapse are relieved by a choir-like transformation, smothered under
layers of distorted metal and synth. This is followed by an almost
devotional organ drone, but in this context it still manages to evoke
the sinister -
the proud architect of decay, surveying the results of their labor.
Limited to 300 copies on black vinyl with printed jacket,

LIEBESTOD - BETA MALE

Sanes return to Chondritic Sound since his first appearance with FEJHED
in 2014, this time to send listeners into a vast chasm of brooding
tension and finessed sonic anguish on a 12" EP. After an impressive
debut CS, LIEBESTOD's anticipated follow up release exhumes a corroded
alloy of industrial rhythms, grotesque field recordings and paranoid
electronics. Edition of 300 copies on black vinyl, printed jacket,

PURE GROUND - GIFTGARTEN
"Giftgarten" is an
LP presenting 10 songs written and recorded over four seasons by the
dark electronics duo Pure Ground. Largely abandoning the hard one-two
rhythms of the group's first full-length recording, "Standard Of
Living", "Giftgarten" gives further exploration into the murky, acrid
wastes of toxic marshes and nervous nights only heard in brief moments
on "Standard".
Giftgarten is available in the USA on LP from Chondritic Sound, and in
Europe on LP from Italy's Avant! Records and CD courtesy of Eric Van
Wonterghem's Sleepless Records Berlin.
