Hvast - Chwasty Polskie

Chwasty Polskie ( in English, Polish Weeds) is the debut album from this Warsaw three-piece. It’s a five-track affair that oftens a atmospheric, often building/developing sound that weaves together elements of electronica, post rock, post industrial/ ambient soundscapes and moody improv - for an engaging and at times rewardingly unpredictable ride


Dirk Serries - Zonal Disturbances III

Here’s the next sonic chapter in the Zonal Disturbances series, which sees longtime Euro mood setter/ ambient-scaper offer up long-form pieces created via guitar and effects pedals.  And this time around, there’s a nice variation in tone and mood between the four tracks featured.


The Stargazer’s Assistant’s - Modular Fields

Modular Fields is the fifth feature-length from this British three-piece. It features four around fifteen-minute tracks, which each move through varied and esoteric themed electronica and ambient sonic journeys. Bringing to mind the likes of Tangerine Dream, Coil, as well as slightly more abstract fare/ freeform electro-fare.


Stephen O‘Malley - Spheres Collapser

Many years in the making, the original recordings for Stephen O‘Malley‘s latest solo work, Spheres Collapser, date from December 2021. Even more remarkable than the latency of this two–part composition‘s release, is the instrument that serves as both source material and structural guidepost for O‘Malley‘s minimalist pieces, Les grandes Orgues de Lausanne: a singular, Frankenstein of a pipe organ that amalgamates designs from the three previous centuries. This majestic behemoth sits like a reliquary in the Église Saint-François in Switzerland, its sound both taut and terrifying. The two compositions, “Phase I & II Organ” respectively, each fill out the side of a standard LP and represent two very different takes on the instrument, realised with organist extraordinaire, Kali Malone and sound artist Frederikke Hoffmeier (aka Puce Mary).


100 Tears - 100 Tears( Blu Ray)

Several years before the appearance of Art the Clown & the Terrifier franchise, there was another brutal, gore-loving killing machine clown on the block.  Gurdy- is a plump, white-suited, black balding wigged, and huge hatchet-carrying killer- who's the star of 100 Tears- which blends extremely brutal stalk ‘n’ slash, with investigation thriller, and light touches of humour. Here from Unearthed Films is a Blu-ray release of the film, taking in a director's commentary tracks, and a few other things.


Garden Of Love, - Garden Of Love,( Blu Ray)

With a title like Garden Of Love, you may be expecting a romantic drama based in the outdoors, or possibly some form of horticultural-themed porn. But in reality, it’s an early 2000’s slice of German Splatter, from one of the kings of the genre Olaf Ittenbach( Black Past, Premutos: The Fallen Angel, Legion of the Dead). The film regards a young woman being tormented by bloody visions of a past she can't fully remember. All she knows is that all of her family was slaughtered when she was a child.
