Charlemagne Palestine & Janek Schaefer ~ Day of the Demons
At the crossroads between creepy and beautiful lies Charlemagne Palestine and Janek Schaefer’s Day of the Demons. The kind of music that captivates and repulses all at once, invites one to delve be drawn into a trance-like state and punishes

Mere ~ Mere
Over the years, bands like the Mt. Fuji Doomjazz Corporation or Bohren & der Club of Gore have successfully explored the painful abysses that populate the silences of improv, drawing listeners into all sorts of moods mutated by psychological collapse.

Blue Sausage Infant ~ Manitou
Manitou is a potpourri of an album: a little drone here, a little rock there, some experimentalism, some dance music. One can’t glean the full picture from a single track; listening to half of the album only yields half of the

The White Meadows ~ A Time for Drunken Horses
A Time for Drunken Horses is curious, clever and creative, a sample-happy mash-up that is consistently alluring and distinctly British. While the album is billed as “experimental folk-drone”, it also includes touches of many other genres. Listen to the first track

Leedian ~ Stunting Noise
And boom! And boom! And boom! With 13 tracks in under 29 minutes, Stunting Noise is a collection of abbreviated bombast. Leedian (Japan’s Hitoshi Asaumi) hails from a town called Toon, and the name fits the material to a T. The album

Anatomy ~ Dead Man and a Skeleton Stag
Sneaky, this Deison chap is, sneaking out a new release under a pseudonym (NOISE-d), a collaboration with the similarly industrial-minded dANI/Alvo, forming the bond of Anatomy. (The hip bone’s connected to the industrial bone.) With these two, one never knows what

Cycle~ 440 ~ The Cartography of Shifting Planes
We do like the squiggle (I take full responsibility), but we never thought we’d see it in an artist’s name. The Cartography of Shifting Planes is the second album from Cycle~ 440, the Perth duo of Sam Gillies (whose Music for Computers was

C. Spencer Yeh ~ 1975
After releasing dozens of records as Burning Star Core, it seems odd to describe 1975 as C. Spencer Yeh‘s debut. And yet… I can’t quite say why C. Spencer Yeh does anything, yet it’s not hard to see that this isn’t
