Kostoglotov ~ Our Beautiful Decay
London’s Kostoglotov calls his sound “lo fi minimalist punk noise rock”, but Our Beautiful Decay also contains ambient, drone and electronic elements. Some lurk in the background, preparing to pounce; by the final track, the noise emerges in full force. This beautiful decay is

Adrian Shenton & Banks Bailey ~ Wrapped in Clover
Sight, sound, touch, scent. Adrian Shenton & Banks Bailey cover four of the five senses on Wrapped in Clover, although completists may wish to lick the cover. The pressed clover transforms the release into a shared scrapbook. This four track release highlights

Terrapin ~ Killing HF Harlow
Vivisection would have been too good a fate for HF Harlow, whose isolationist experiments with Rhesus monkeys may have singlehandedly inspired the animal rights movement. If Planet of the Apes were to become real, he’d be the first to go. Harlow’s experiments

High aura’d ~ Sanguine Futures
Sanguine Futures is a Rorchach test of an album, an inkblot of sound from which different ears will intuit different tales. It may be a winter album edging toward the spring, a clouded mind coming into focus, a blurred photo becoming

Alberto Boccardi ~ S/T
Like a cellophane-wrapped square of mixed breakfast cereals, Alberto Boccardi‘s debut is a variety pack of enticements: straightforward and experimental, vocal and instrumental, song and drone. This diversity of styles is reminiscent of This Mortal Coil, especially the sweet dulcet

John Aulich ~ Suite 001 – “For Kazimierz”

Pleq + Hiroki Sasajima ~ witch-hunt
After collaborating with Spheruleus on a beguiling album for Time and Language earlier this year, Pleq + Hiroki Sasajima keep the creative fires burning with the menacing CD-3″ witch-hunt. Spheruleus may be absent, but his positivity would seem out of place.
