Here’s a release that ties together unrelentingly juddering wall noise with distant, harmonically edged ambient. It’s not clear where the projects from, but the release appears on London’s HNW label- so we know it’s going to be of a certain standard.

Vacant Align Interview
Active since October 2025, Wisconsin’s Vacant Align is one of the more atmospheric and texturally inventive wall noise projects to appear in some time. It’s a project that takes its time in releasing work, and you can certainly hear it, as each of their releases so far is a perfectly crafted blend of expressive and engaging textures. Behind the project is John Engman, who very kindly agreed to give us an email interview

Static Terrain is a forty-minute slice of crudely galloping ‘n’ nastily spluttering HNW from this highly prolific and long-running Californian project. It’s a simple/ no-nonsense example of the form.
The Beast is an exercise in manically nerve-racking, and totally unforgiving junk noise walling from Whores Breath (aka David Hilshorst). The just over twenty-seven-minute track finds this Cincinnati project truly going all out to create an impenetrable mass of ratting, forking, luching, and grating noise

Jasper Sharp interview
In the year 1971, Nikkatsu, the oldest/ at one point, the biggest film production company in Japan. Did something quite daring/ some would say crazy- they completely switched over their production to softcore adult films, which would become known as Roman Porno. Between 1971 and 1988, the company produced around 850 of these titles. The thing that made these films stand out from general softcore films is the often creative & inventive choices made- yes, the films primal focus is sleaze, but great examples of the genre are so much more than that. In the last year or so, there has been a spate of reissues of films in the genre from labels such as 88 Films, Third Window Films, and Klubb Super 8. One of the key figures/contributors behind these releases is Jasper Sharp- one of the world's experts on the genre, and the wider Pink genre it’s connected to. Jasper kindly agreed to give us an email interview discussing his history with the genre, his contributions to releases, and the new/updated edition of his book Behind The Pink Curtain: The Complete History of Japanese Sex Cinema on Fab Press.
King Futile Interview
King Futile is the new project from Scotland-based Lea Cummings( Kylie Minoise, Official Music Team, etc), and it’s a big departure from his normal noise or retro sample & electronica sound. It's lo-fi acoustic music, with an outsider feel, and often quite tongue-in-cheek/ sharply sarcastic tone to the lyrics. So far, the project has put out three albums- Casual Misery, How To Have Fun, and Zen As Fuck. I tracked down Lea for an email interview.
Corpse is a 2019 horror movie written, directed, produced, edited and scored by Christopher Williams (Hell is Inside) and starring Joe Blackstock (no other movie credits), Walt Braley (Snapped), Reise Kitts (no other credits) and Mingo Perry (Death of the Final Girl and Neon Sinner).
