Coph Nia - That Which
Remains - CD
Add to Cart (temp N/A)
The recent signings of Cold Meat Industry may have indicated a new direction
for the label, one of more
outward, nihilistic aggression. But after
operating in seclusion for
five years, debutants COPH NIA pick up a baton
that was never really dropped,
as they display a sound firmly rooted in the
introspective nord-ambient
tradition. Think Lustmord meet Sephiroth meet
Raison d'être, all spiced up
with moments of delicate polyphony that harken
back to goth icons like Dead
Can Dance. "That Which Remains" - the result of
two years of hard labour -
spans topics ranging from death and darkness to
passion and reverence, yet a
main theme is discernible: the strong belief in
the power of the will, both a
sword and a shield in the aware individual's
perpetual quest for
illumination in a secular world about to collapse
Folkstorm - For the Love
of Hate - Digipak CD
Add to Cart
MZ.412 is one of the household names on CMI, so it was only a matter of time
before the side project
Folkstorm would end up there as well, after some
excursion to the Old Europa
Cafe and Cold Spring labels. Folkstorm allegedly
appeared as a reaction to the
more refined studio approach of MZ.412, thus
applying a shift of the
compositional modus operandi, a return to the
basics. Folkstorm represents a
loving nod to the industrial old school:
buzzing synth noise, crude
drum machine rhythms, and dubious speech samples.
"For the Love Of Hate" puts
even more emphasis on the vocals than the
previous albums, although
Kremator Nordvargr's voice is rendered
unintelligble by all the
effects. Buy this album, and get prepared to
time-warp to the halcyon days
of early industrialism.
Leak - The Old Tea House
- Digipak CD
Add to Cart (temp N/A)
While one Heid member is focusing on sonic extremism with Survival Unit,
thee others started up L.E.A.K.
This project challenges every notion that a
lot of contemporary industrial
music is haphazardly thrown together in the
bedrooms of adolescent
prodigies. The album is recorded at the legendary EMS
studio in Stockholm, the home
of many acclaimed electro-acoustic composers,
and applies controlled ways of
composition such as serialism as well as
elements of improvisation and
random techniques. The result is a sometimes
disturbing sometimes
beautiful, but always breathtaking journey to the heart
of darkness. One of those rare
moments proving that structure and chaos are
not necessarily mutually
exclusive.

The imminent release of the debut CD by new CMI signing The Protagonist has
proved to be the most
anticipated since Arcana's "The Dark Age Of Reason",mainly
due to the ingenious tactics by the person behind the project, Magnus
Sundström. By participating on
a number of prestigious compilation albums,
giving a couple of well-timed
concerts in Europe, and putting up enticing
musical samples for public
scrutiny on the web, The Protagonist has been
turned into a name mentioned
with utmost respect by connoisseurs of eclectic
matters. The classically
designed music draws a lot of inspiration from
cinematic and literary
sources, leaving little doubt about the ardour with
which Sundström approaches his
calling. With the release of the "A Rebours"
CD, this proclaimer of the
beauty in darkness transcends both spiritually
and musically the mediocricity
that distinguishes most of what passes for
industrial music these days,
and adds yet another masterpiece to the already
impressive roster of Cold Meat
Industry

Add to Cart (temp N/A)
Sephiroth relate stories about the inexorable and destructive power of Time,
mankind's futile attempts of
resistance, and the sunken cities, fallen
towers, and overgrown ruins
that this has resulted in. Dark eerie
soundscapes and ritualistic
drums are combined with own field recordings
from places like Cairo,
Iceland, and gloomy Nordic forests. Sephiroth's
music whispers about the Gods
we are desperately trying to appease, only for
then finding ourselves dying
before the monuments we spent our lives
building. Sephiroth bid you
welcome into the ruins and down to the deep
forgotten catacombs.

Sophia is the solo project of
Peter Petterson, known as the man behind
Arcana. After years of working
with Arcana, Peter needed to inhale some
fresh air, resulting in
Sophia. The music is harsher and alot darker with
strong millitary influence.

Shifting focus from Arcana to Sophia seems to have cured whatever creative
cramp that Peter Pettersson
has suffered from. In less than a year's time a
second full length album is
due for release, not long after the recent 10"
EP on Pettersson's own label
Erebus Odora. Comparisons with Der Blutharsch
and even In Slaughter Natives
are legitimate, as Sophia paint a similar sort
of epic frescos. These are the
solemn and sonorous melodies belted out by
the pipers and drummers while
the army retract from a hard day's work at the
battlefield, saving the
kingdom from legions of infidels. Their ruler
rejoices, as does Roger
Karmanik, to have such talented people within their
ranks.

AKRABU - ANNUNNAKIAN INCANTATIONS - CD
Add to Cart
Akrabu was concieved in the mid-1990's as a side-project from the guitarist of
Crimson Moon, a well recognized black metal band from America. Following similar
occult themes presented in the aforementioned band, guitarist Scorpios took his
visions further with his Akrabu project. As a result, Scorpio managed to create
an original and unique brand of occult folk music bearing strong Middle Eastern
influences. A self-financed demo tape entitled "Kakos Draconis" was released,
and shortly thereafter the sophomore opus, "Kispu Ina Ina Nekelmu" was released
by Dark Age Productions (a.k.a. The Fossil Dungeon) during 1996. Limited to only
100 copies, this special release came packaged in a unique slip case with a
velveteen magician's bag, ritual booklet, consecreated snakeskin, and scented
inserts. Sold-out quickly, this item became a sought after release by those who
were aware of its existence. Dark Vinyl Records will be archiving elements of
this release on CD format during 2001

Moving from the blistering primal scream of their notorious 1983 debut, "Knees

brooding, bone chilling darkness of their 1998 masterwork "The Poisoner",
Controlled Bleeding's eclectic, highly challenging cannon of work has made few

FORMAL LOGIC DECAY - LOVSTAKKEN - CD
Add to Cart
Formal Logic Decay (at first simply called F.L.D.) depicts the more
experimental and unforeseeable amidst my musical projects: the true essence of
sonorous research free from any kind of restriction of genre. I came nearer to
this artistic proposal during teens, lightened by John Cage's practices for
piano (instrument now I play since 20 years), but what it brought me to try this
expressive path was the listening of some works from the Schaeffer's Concrete
Music circle and some of my always favoured acts like T.G., B.Lustmord or
Whitehouse, composers like Vangelis, Jarre to band as Kraftwerk or E.N. Since at
that time (during the first years of 90's) I didn't have a PC, I made the first
raw recordings on a simple analogic multitracker, without the courage to spread
my stuff in a mind-closed scene like the Italian one, saved only by a few
persons whom unluckily at that time I didn't know yet. A lot of those tapes are
actually lost, erased or never finished, but I'm still working on their
meticulous restoration. Around the middle of '90's I began to appreciate also
the more extreme experimentations from Nipponic Noise scene and I enriched my
production of what I called "noise-conceptualizations" with intended low-fi and
frequencies-saturation works (later on I knew the term "power-electronics", I
presume fit). About 10 years after my first experimentations I felt the need to
spread some of my latest work signed as F.L.D., but always among a very
restricted circle of open-minded listeners, such as I think you who're reading
be...

Psychonaut75 - Stealing the fire from heaven - CD
Add to Cart
grandioses VALEFOR sideprojekt , rythmischer devil dance industrial ; for more
information go to : W W W . P S Y C H O N A U T 7 5 . C O M . The debut of
Psychonaut 75 as the line up being Dana Dark , Michael Ford , Davcina and Tommie
Vain . This album also features the dark approach to the musick of the band ,
invoking the demonic and angelic within the same recording . This is a concept
based on Phosphorus , Lucifer and is a puzzle that is devoted to a Black Flame
inspired self-alchemy. Called devil-dance by some, this recording devoted to the
extremes of rhythm and bleak lunar soundscapes will captivate and awaken
something within the listener . Psychonaut 75 is the most recent incarnation of
the ever-evolving monicker, under which gathered a quartet of musicians pushing
the limits of gray magick muzak into new and previously unexplored depths.
Psychonaut 75 is described as a Luciferian dark industrial - ritualistic -
demonic - dance band, a manifestation of the Left Hand Path that seeks the
development of the Black Flame within the listener. In 2001 the illustrious
model and DJ Dana Dark and Tommie Vain joined Psychonaut and a Coven of oddly
four individuals was formed, based on an equal sisterhood/brotherhood in Lucifer
and the path of Dark Sabbatic Witchcraft and Chaos Magick. 75 was added as it is
the Qabalistic number of Lucifer, the Morning Star. The band recorded the new
album Stealing the Fire from Heaven : a demonic sound, added with heavy dance
rhythms and ritualistic atmospheres with the layered sound of Dana and Michael
playing human bones to evoke the shadows of the dead. The bands first live
ritual, which took place on June 14th, 2001 was a Goetic ritual dedication to
the evocation of Lucifer and the fallen angels, for each member to become a
vessel for the archetype of the Morning Star, so that they may bring forth the
dark spirits of the subconscious into flesh through musick. The ritual was
climaxed with Dana and Michael pouring blood on their selves while using wands
made of Human Bones to evoke the serpentine force of Phosphorus, the bringer of
wisdom. The purpose of the Musick of Psychonaut 75 / Valefor is to activate
resurgent atavisms within the subconscious, allowing the latent powers of the
mind to surge forth and become essentially a useful tool for the awakened
individual. One who is receptive to Sonic Black Magick will find their selves
inspired, charged and full of creative energy. This energy is associated with
Lycanthropy and such brainwave resonators from the Gamma Frequency associated
with extreme alertness. Psychonaut 75 is a band, which focuses on the ability to
create diverse, and varied areas of musick, manifesting various tones and sounds
associated with PHI brainwave patterns. Through the styles of rhythm driven
electronic musick, the atmosphere of hybrid instruments as human bones and
disembodied samples, Psychonaut 75 intends to allow the listener to access the
areas of the brain which stimulate response based on Magick principles, the
utmost Angelic worlds with the most demonic worlds. This is the Luciferian
Principle of Shadowing forth the gates of mastery through Musick. This is
possible through the ongoing development of the use of Binaural Beat Frequencies
to stimulate certain brainwave activity. Psychonaut 75, even with its project
Valefor , remains a band focused on producing positive results in the listener.
The darkness or demonic essence of the musick is only fearful for those unawake
to themselves. The band pursues an avenue of what they call * Luciferian
Awakening * to in fact create * gate * within the listener for the forces they
evoke. The musick of the band is closely connected with their Luciferian * Order
of Phosphorus * , a Chaos Magick order based on individual excellence.

Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors - CD
Add to Cart (temp N/A)
Honored sonic surrealists Arcturus lay before you their latest work, The Sham
Mirrors. In a time when the terms "avant-garde" and "progressive" are thrown
around too loosely in the metal lexicon, The Sham Mirrors arrives to defy such
easy tags. It explodes like a supernova throughout its 43-minute duration; it
lays another mighty brick in the tower these explorers have been building since
1991 ... The new album remains metal at its core while dragging the genre
through endless tunnels of light, color and sound that it has never before seen.
The Trickster Garm showcases his previously-unexplored falsetto range;
Hellhammer offers a percussive display that teeters between the organic and the
inhuman; Sverd's keys pepper the spaces with masterful confidence. In a perfect
world (far from the one we inhabit), lead-off track "Kinetic" would be a global
hit single. Six songs later, the album closes with the cosmic 10-and-a-half
minute opus, "For To End Yet Again," itself alone worthy of a life

Wostheinrich's music, and they still found a unique signature with this

stunning debut record (following up the acclaimed split release with Veinke on

Blackmouth - Blackmouth - CD
Add to Cart
Seductive yet gloomy, the vocals of Jarboe (ex-Swans) make the perfect
companion for the moody
and desperate melodies of John Bergin (Trust Obey,
C17H19No3) and Brett
Smith (Caul). The music of Blackmouth is largely similar to
the compositions Smith
and Bergin put forth as the entity Tertium Non Data While these pieces contain a
bit more structure than previous work, the distinctive
difference remains the
evocative presence of Jarboe. Not only does Jarboe
provide lyrics that
reflect intense bitterness, anger, and pain, but she presents
them with a
surrealistic grace and an unmistakable beauty
Chaos
As Shelter -
Midnight Prayer/Illusion
- DCD
The third album from this dark and disturbing Israeli project is actually a 2 CD
set with the discs acting as adversarial compliments. Blending deep, ominous
drones with the ethnic influences of the region, Vadim Gusis has delivered a
boundless world of sound where good and evil spontaniously clash. Spiritually
unsettling and life-force confirming Middle Eastern musique concrete.
Gruntsplatter -
The Death Fires - CD
Gruntsplatter's first full length offering, after a series of split releases, is
a
menacing coagulation examining
time & mortality. Soot choked atmospherics,
splintered frequencies
& rhythmic subtlty gurgle in rotten sockets and drift down
untouched crevasses in
the stale earth to a primal place of instinctual violence and
visceral fear, where
intellect is abandoned in the face of a saturating unknown. "The
Death Fires" is a
delicately vicious and highly personal pilgrimage seeking the
essence of expiration.
House
of Low Culture - Submarine Immersion Techniques Vol. 1 - CD
Welcome to the excellent debut by Aaron Turner's (Isis / HydraHead Records)
House of Low Culture. "Submarine Immersion Techniques" is a psychedelic
concoction made up of warm, droning guitars and infectious riffing. Though
noisier elements are applied, HOLC maintains a powerfully relaxing mood.
Necrophorus - drifting in Motion - CD
Add to Cart (temp N/A)
Exploring lost lands of isolation and horripilation, the infamous Peter
Andersson, known for his works as Raison d'être and Svasti-ayanam, unveils
"Drifting In Motion", his second bestowal as Necrophorus. While traversing both
audible and inaudible domains, Andersson paints dim void-bubbles in the crisp
solitude ominous, sweeping horizons. "Drifting In Motion" is a constant,
dripping reservoir of devourment where space is an illusion and the spawning of
distant echoes signifies emerging, unexplored horizons. Necrophorus revels in
perpetual progression of both sound and perception. Chilling, foreboding
ambiance. Awaken.
Tertium Non Data - Hers
Is Blood - CD
Add to Cart
Following up the promising debut "The Third is Not Given" and the remarkably
seductive Blackmouth record, collaborators John Bergin and Brett Smith take
another leap forward with the dynamic "Hers Is Blood". Award-winning jazz artist
Pam Bricker's coldly alluring vocals highlight much of this teetering array of
compositions. Also sure to impress is the enchanting voice of Lori Demanche and
the harmonica wizardry of blues phenom Brody Buster. "Hers Is Blood" provides a
dimly-lit glimpse into a smoldering world of beauty and rage.
