Talog - Objave Sablasne Tiranije



The title means Revelation of Spooky Tyranny (according to Google Translate). A spooky tyranny?. Talog hails from Croatia, I wonder if he refers to a specific tyrant from the days of old. Could it be Milosevic? He waged war and was into ethnic cleansing in Croatia, Bosnia, and Kosovo. The titles of the three tracks on this mini-albums go from Death Is Not In the Tomb to The Gates of Hell. Talog mostly works within themes of a vampiric origin, so who knows. Have he made a fusion/mix-idea between Slavic vampire myths and the brutality of Milosevic?. Stoker did the very same thing, Vlad Tepes meets the vampire myth = Dracula. Nonetheless, Mr. Talog have released this digital+ltd.physical-cassette/tape-release and as far as I am concerned... Stuff from Croatian-based Talog is always worth the attention!

Not a big one though, 3 tracks being only 15 minutes in total. With one of the most beautiful cassette releases, I have seen in a long time! (see pictures below)

First track Smrt Nije U Grobnici puts the listener inside a cold coffin which has been placed inside an ancient masonry-build tomb, while it´s raining in the living world outside. A simple, mysterious but effective intro to this evil-sounding release (and ear opener if you please). Next track you are walking through an evocative and mist-filled graveyard (after you have gotten out of that maggot-ridden tomb of course!). Sounding sinister and rather... early death-industrial/ambient (Brighter Death Now, Tombstone) meets vampiric dungeon synth. Very creepy, horrific and simple primitive synth-ambient. Fans of classic Hammer-horror and horror comics like Eerie and Creepy... take notice! 


Last piece Vrata Pakla moves into more ritualistic and ceremonial grounds. Could it be that you have awoken from the dead by magic means, walked through the mist-filled graveyard and ended at last in some summoning ritual? The last touch of the last track confirms that whoever has summoned you from the dead, is more than willing to do your bidding. And that bidding? Tyranny over the lesser mortals perhaps? I don´t think it would be Milosevic returning from the dead as a bloody vampire!

And that is that!. Not much to it, a quick and simple mood setter before playing a horror-based roleplaying game (or watching classic vampire flicks!). The only downside to this release is that it is too short!. I would like to have more of this!. BUT, it works fine in its lesser-is-more approach. It´s grim, primitive and minimal. Go get while it´s cold and rotten!

Faery Ring – The Urchin Prince 



This summer (11th of June) Danish dungeon-synth label released their first release with this one-man act from England. This release The Urchin Prince is the 4th album from Faery Ring, which came out first on Faery Ring´s own Bandcamp site back in 2018, and now Gondolin Records has released this as a limited cassette release (limited to 150 copies). The cassette even comes with a lovely pro-printed booklet containing a short story which you can read while listening. We are dealing with a 9 track album, about 25 minutes in total.

The Urchin Prince by Faery Ring starts off with the first track called Saltmouth. Neo-classic ambient tunes with a certain sense of dread and doom creep slowly in and set the mood. Epic, dreamish and apocalyptic pianos and violin strings work its way on the second track Grim Enceinte, The Old Gaoler. Almost kind of martial-industrial/wave meets gothic neo-classic here. Third track Dust, The Urchin Prince takes it further with the gothic sounding strings and martial drummings, fand of Swedish Puissance takes notice here. Fourth offering The Uncherished Parlours slows it down to more traditional dungeon-synth, with a catchy and deep melancholic mood attached to it. Fifth track Bellwether, Herald of the Long Slumber does indeed sound like a slumber. The kind of epic slumber one might succumb to when u have been king for far too long! A sense of malice and sadness for certain.¨


Sixth track The Starless Garden sounds like a sad and doom-forsaken garden. Not the kind of place where one might enjoy their tea and biscuits! Seventh track Mauveine, Daughter of the Comfortless King adds a soft melodic and romantic touch to all the dread and doom (that means less martial apocalyptic moods!). Eight track Prolix II, the Comfortless King, proves that… he doesn't really care for the company of his daughter. Might as well drink his sorrows away? Still having that that gothic sounding neo-classic sound. Ninth and last track Lemures (Shades or spirits of the restless and malignant dead in Roman mythology… NOT abs!). Wraps it all up in utter funeral blackness, might just be the heaviest piece of dread on the album!

And that is that! A very atypical kind of dungeon synth release which sounds… like a neo-classic orientated release from the 90s? It has that sound. A synth-minimal version of CMI´s Swedish act Arcana or a dungeon synth orientated Puissance. I guess you can call it… neo-classic martial-ambient for dungeon synth fans. Well made with lots of good intentions and ideas. There is all but one thing that bothers me. Listening to this album from the start and to the end gives you an idea that the story behind the music doesn’t live up to the epic feel that the album promises. The album could use some sounds/samples, or something else (experimental elements maybe?) to give it an otherworldly feel. The entire albums follow that neo-classic gothic violin sound (so you might as well get used to it). BUT!. If you do dig that sound (like maybe Arcana and Puissance) then this album IS something for you. All Faery Ring´s album is available on the official Bandcamp site, the tape is already sold out on Gondolin Records (go hunting!).

HGM – Lithium (Mental Illness)



Released the 1st of January (this year). We have reviewed HGM before, which was the excellent Tridium 192 album. This one is slightly different, and a more subtle one that is. This release has been released though French label +Schintillae+Animas+ as a limited 7 copies limited CDR edition, with different handmade artwork curated by Isidore / La Nuit Qui Tombe. Through HgM´s own label, it has also been first released on cassette, check out the amazing artwork! A two-track album is 35 minutes in total.

The first track Arsenic Death (heavy title) opens the album into the harsh and almost religious-sacred territory. Quite a theme to actually work on. Arsenic has been used in chemical warfare, poisoning, taxonomic sample preservation, pyrotechnics, coloring agent in sweets even as an item used to change your skin complexion! Do actually die from it must be horrific! Starts with headaches, confusion, severe diarrhea, and drowsiness. Later on, convulsions will occur. Then you will vomit blood, cramps, loss of hair, stomach pain, etc. It then leads to coma and death. This track points out the early stages (I think)...

ANYWAYS! (on to the recordings) Floatless and liquid-like ambient noise with ritualistic undercurrents. Actually more beautiful sounding than the way to go with arsenic poisoning! To me, it sounds like the gates of heaven being opened. So maybe we are talking about accidental poisoning, because if it was arsenic death through suicide then u probably won’t be allowed through the heaven’s gate (I think).


Next and last track Lithium. Mostly known as a medicine used to treat suicidal patients suffering from manic-depression. Here the albums enter something of a more brutal soundscape. Harsh-noise wall combined with sacred chanting and manic demon-possessed noisy vocals. I can´t help thinking of an exorcism here. This track actually sounds more like a death caused from arsenic poisoning. Something really desperate and painfull going on here. Fans of the black-metal related noise-project Deadwood would dig this track!

A nice noisy atmospheric treat to the senses, not as ambitious as the cover-artwork but a thoroughly good one from the start to the end. There are noise-wall bits, ambient textures, and industrial-noise… all the good things are there. Be quick if you want a physical release!

Miracle Of Love - You will Be Free



It´s summertime, love is in the air and people are happy in the warm sunlight. But every now and then thundering lightning and pouring rain will come down after a hot season. Miracle Of Love (in that sense) works with a sensation of physical relief, I am talking about masturbation (Or am I?) no ... I am talking about how one will physically feel when the rain and the thunder come down... after a VERY hot day! 

The act-name Miracle Of Love (plus the album title) looks like a new Swans-related/side-project release, I don´t think that the act-name hails from the hit-single by Eurythmics. Although I can assure that it doesn't sound like Swans, or Eurythmics for that matter!. Primal and heavy industrial-ambiance would be my words for it, somewhere along the line between the mid-era neo-classical ambiance of Raison d´être (Empty Hollow Unfolds) and the harsh monotonic death-industrial sounds from Megaptera. In other words, this act which hails from Rome sounds more like an early Swedish CMI-act then an Italian one (And there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING wrong about that. Limited released as a BEAUTIFUL (and completely black) CD inserted in a nifty slip-cover (See below). I don´t know how limited it is since I cannot locate the info regarding the exact number of releases pressed. Either way, better be quick than slow with this one. You can find it via the label´s Bandcamp site (Also see below).

The release/album and the sounds kind of works in the same fashion as when our favorite Cenobite speaks the immortal words ´Angels to some, devils to others´. It contains beautiful almost angelic synth-ambient melancholic-moments and then next you are deliberately thrown into a cage with venomous snakes! 


But still, the concept of the soundtrack/mood maintain its chosen aesthetic. You will encounter distorted guitar-loops, angelic/orthodox choirs, machine room-sounds, whispering voices, proto dungeon-synth melodies, harsh noise-aggression, even beautiful acoustic guitar moments. All of this being perfectly packed in that classic industrial-ambient/ritual-industrial sound-setting! 

From start to finish, it is a fantastic and terrifying journey... and yes!... It will set you free! All the highly individual tracks have all been crafted beautifully together to create this magnificent soundtrack. A 2019 must!

Maurizio Bianchi & Pharmakustik - Zersetzung by Kristian Robert Carter


The Oxford University description of decomposition is as follows -

" the state or process of rotting "

Zersetzung is the German word for decomposition.

Longtime MB collaborator and audio engineer Siegmar Fricke are Pharmakustik and he knows a lot about decomposition. He has been clinically dissecting sound for over three decades, critically analyzing the component molecules of audio data and meticulously documenting the sonic debris. Assembling the shards of sound into towering superstructures of fragile geometry. Constructing monoliths of complex patterns both dense and weighty but possessing an air of fragility as if the huge wall of drone he has constructed could be swept away with a simple flick of the wrist. His digital experimentation is as deep as the ocean itself but just like the ocean waves they pour forth and recede into the distance, in constant movement. Back and forth. Like time itself. Inexorable and unstoppable.

Everything decays.

All matter is in a constant state of decomposition.

One could say that life itself is one slow drawn-out process of undoing.

The moment we are born we begin to fall slowly to pieces.

Our cells divide, break apart and we eventually end up as an atomized dust, returned to the state of nothingness from whence we emerged.


Utilizing raw materials and field recordings from the legendary Italian electronic musician Maurizio Bianchi, Pharmakustik has tried to identify the nature of decomposition and decay inherent within the recordings supplied by Mr. Bianchi.

The four tracks upon this beautifully packaged release are the exploration of the decay that Mr. Bianchi recorded on a small handheld recorder. The ambient sounds of his home city of Milan are broken down into granular particles of pure noise and treated with layer upon layer of technology. What was captured in the original field recordings is given a new lease of life by the cryptic mining of the decomposition that is built into everything that exists upon this planet and every single object, person, animal or vegetable that has ever existed?

Pharmakustik strip away the sound of life itself to reveal the slow decomposing collapsing energy of nature and time.

Cracking static and crumbling waves of sound that are enveloped within a huge echo chamber give this album a claustrophobic air. Unusual spirals of noise twist and undulate like medieval mythic serpents, their presence is felt but they never become fully visible. Remaining at the periphery of awareness.

The second track sounds as if waves are crashing onto a vast deserted beach, the wave of sound crunching into the sand and then slowly receding leaving behind freshly deposited digital shingle that crackles with cobalt electricity.

The third and fourth tracks sound as if they have been recorded within a huge decaying industrial complex that is slowly falling to pieces, the individual sections of disused machinery captured and amplified as they are consumed by the passage of rot, rust, and entropy.

Siegmar Fricke hails from Germany and during my research into the term Zersetzung I discovered that the former East German Republic ( DDR ) had a covert surveillance program with the same title.

The Stasi used analog equipment to monitor and police dissidents imposing a sense of paranoia and mistrust in those who were targeted for surveillance.

It is not known if there is any allegorical link to either the process of decomposition and the Stasi surveillance program but one can imagine the sense of claustrophobic weight that was leveled at the surveyed dissidents especially on track three with its muffled voices and helicopter like sounds that flicker and dance across the speakers.

Whatever angle one approaches this album from it is impossible not to be consumed entirely by its dense weight and complexity.

Having worked together for many years Pharmakustik is still finding ways to explore and develop the ideas and sounds of MB.

Highly recommended.

MB - T.P.T.M.B.T.D. 

Written by Kristian Robert Carter



" Dedicated to all those who are searching for the truth " Whose truth? Truth is in short supply these days. Perhaps it's always been this way but in the fast paced hyper technological world we inhabit, truth has actually become a commodity. Truth is invented, truth is traded, truth is manufactured. In the era of fake news and misinformation; one must ask both what truth and whose. Maurizio Bianchi has been seeking the elusive and spiritual in the temporal for over four decades now. In his formative years he sought some kind of humanity in the increasingly cold mechanistic industrial environment of his native Italy. Vainly attempting to unearth the logic that lay behind the crushing facade of a society that perpetuates dehumanization and isolation within its socio economic sphere. In essence what Bianchi tried to capture with his early sound experiments was the complete atomisation of the individual within the technological world. He could see that rather than liberating us from our shackles, that very technology was instead entrapping us inside a bleak and sterile cell. Alone and isolated. Nothing more than an isolated atomic particle colliding in vain against the walls of our own technological hell. Through his bleak and cacophonous audio works he created an audible portrait of the static screams of the human race; as it was consumed by the very equipment they had created to liberate themselves. He stared headlong into the abyss and what he saw repulsed him He walked away. He sought a truth far from the technologic hell he had surveyed. Maurizio found some of the truth he had sought and returned after a lengthy absence. In order to continue his search for meaning through sound and art. To use music as a tool to explore his new spiritual truth. This album released on Japanese label Music Atlach is a remastered work that first appeared on cassette in 2015. Lavishly packaged and lovingly restored from the original master recordings. T.P.T.M.B.T.D is a lengthy disk. Comprising of two thirty minute sections. The first track entitled Tele Pro Thermo unfolds slowly, as if the track is a photograph that is obscured by smoke. As the smoke begins to dissipate the blurred image begins to slowly become discernible. I say photograph because the track is static, there is very little movement at all and in fact the movement is perhaps only distinguishable as the movement of the dissaptating smoke that clouds the frozen image. If your hoping for a clearer glimpse of what's actually upon the exposed photograph you'll be dismayed to find that the actual Polaroid is a blurred mess of distorted scenery. To actually ascertain what is captured in that exposed image is virtually impossible. One can only catch a fleeting glimpse of what may or may not be there. There are faint edges, contours and protusions but that is all. Everything is out of focus and ill defined. Whatever truth is lurking imperceptibly within the image is out of grasp. Trying to clutch at this truth will leave you frantically clawing at mist. There is nothing to hold onto and that truth will slip effortlessly through your outstretched fingertips.

The second track engimatically titled Mikro Bio Tetra Dys is a haunting floating hymn to an unrealised dystopia. Through the bleak murky fugue that surrounds this piece a choral chord sequence threatens to pierce the gloom and bring into this shade world a searing flash of luminence. However despite how hard the light pushes it is unable to break through the gloom and instead it is buried within the greyness that seeps at a funerary pace across the track. There is hope but it is only by piercing the darkness will you find any kind of salvation. Maurizio Bianchi has looked into that darkness and he has found his truth, his salvation. The question is; are you willing to do the same?

Javier Pinango & David Area - Drôle de Guerre



One of the latest releases from Spanish industrial-drone experimentalist Javier Pinango, you may have noticed another excellent release with him which we reviewed back in 2017 (Two Unfocused Cardinal Points). The album has been made in the company of a David Area, which has been thoroughly active in the Spanish experimental scene. This one also came out on Marbre Negre by digital means and physical as a 50 copies ltd. CD in an awesome looking slim-line digipack (Notice the fantastic cover artwork here folks!). A 7 tracks album, almost 80 minutes long!. This one is actually a live-recording... really interesting stuff here!.

First tracks open the ears to rusty glitch-sounds dripping into your brain, distant screaming, and hypnotic metallic drones, monotonic death-industrial bass-rumblings joined up with acid-drenched psychedelic moods. Really interesting and very digestible soundscape for any hungry ears/minds. So far it seems/sounds like a great live performance!. Second track takes me back to some of the early recordings by the BBC-radiophonic workshop or even the kraut-rock/ambient pioneers Cluster. Heavy industrial space-ambient anyone?. Beautiful mindbending sounds you can travel your mind with (Free trip into another dimension anyone??). 


The third track being the longest on the album (17:10 minutes) being also one of the most surreal and mesmerizing treats here. A kind of a modern update to some of the early ambient/atmospheric recordings by Throbbing Gristle, and yes... it will lift you some inches from the ground!. You can almost sense a touch of urban decay here, a touch of something (Abandoned factories) which hasn´t changed for years and years and then it just stands there... rotting and falling apart. Probably waiting for something to tear it down and building something new, which sadly will not happen (For some reason). A very beautiful dark piece which I can highly recommend for walkies with your headphones on in the decayed industrial and forgotten areas of your hometown. 

Fourth track sutle settles the mood further down, Tangerine Dream and Biosphere fans anyone?. Feels like the spaceship has finally landed somewhere, maybe it is soil? (Maybe not). It feels like drifting on an icy cloud while looking down?... What kind of cloud it is which u can land your spaceship on, I do not know! Incredible track this is. Love the mind-cutting high-tones here!. The fifth track puts you into a heavy sort of static hypnotic state, throbbing monotonic piece which bombs you further down to the surface from the icy-clouds. A pulsating beam shoots the space traveler through the atmosphere and the clouds, when will you reach the surface (if there is one?!).

From here, I will keep my mouth shut! I will then ask you (as the reader) to join this journey and explore it. As mentioned before, we are talking about other planets, dimensions, other states of minds, levitation... YOU NAME IT!. Heavy industrial space ambient, are we talking about a new genre?. FANTASTIC live-album, I would wish that I was there to experience it!. Sadly no :(.

Disen Gage - Nature




All the way from Mother Russia, Disen Gage has been existence since 1999. Taking elements from prog-rock, free-jazz, space-ambient, noise, and industrial music... so far they have come up with 7 albums and this one is their newest which came out last year via (No Name) label (Seriously!... that is the label name). A 3 track album, where each track is about 15 minutes each. A concept album working around the planets, trains, and animals. Otherwise, read this official and interesting concept statement:

This story started a long time ago when the participants of Disen Gage scoured in the night in the dangerous vicinity of the Moscow railroad station “Sortirovochnaya” trying to capture fascinating sonic roulades emitted by the wagons. At the same time, on the other side of the globe, in the State of Iowa, astronomers succeed in converting strange signals coming from the orbit of Jupiter into audible sound palettes. Later, in an Australian swamp, Mrs. Toad said to Mr. Crocodile: "Dude, why not concoct a Tops-of-the-Pops album of all those ingredients, one on which we would sing all together?” "I'll call Mr. Bear, my Siberian friend. He knows how to mix all stuff with a beat", answered Mr. Crocodile. Finally, the Nature, crafted from sounds of planets, trains, and animals including higher primates, is now in your hands. Still, we wonder how the human ear will take this… 
…and songs of the mushroom kingdom and bacteria are coming next.

The very first track (I know I have mentioned Dr.Who before) sucks you and the Tardis into some deep and weird dimension (We are talking about black and white Dr.Who-era). One of those kinds of dimensions where normality, as we know, ceases to exist! I can Recommend seeing The Mind Robber episode or The Edge of Destruction. Psychedelic trippy space-ambient with looped industrial machine rhythms... think the surreal and heavy industrial sounds of Deutsche Nepal and the cosmic space exploration ideas from Biosphere. Really like the first track, a lovely kind of organic feel to it. Interesting elements of free-jazz and deep space drones end it. 


Second track Trains, it gets a bit more... desolate and eerie. Sort of like being completely alone on a huge (and old) train station. Looped wind-sweeping rhythmic sounds, in the distance you have screaming trains slowing down the speed, hidden sound-drones lurk, repetitive and breathtaking and haunting ambient-tunes. The whole track just feels like something you want to dive into, and have you completely absorbed. Excellent soundtrack material here, really good!.

Last track Animals has according to the CD-cover a wide range of different animals as guest musicians. Anything from a bear, hyenas, crocodile, toad... you name it!. Looped, repetitive and exquisite strangeness streams through your speakers. Who could have thought that animal sounds could be so interesting?. Almost a kind of technoid rhythmic-electronica feel to this piece. Love it when you can hear the wolves howling here. Interesting psychedelic sludge-metal kind of ending.

I have nothing bad to say about this. An incredible unique release with a HUGE world of the sound-aesthetic inside (and ready to be explored!). The sound quality is worth to mention since it is incredible great!. When I am reviewing this release, I am sitting in a room where I have perfect stereo-sound. And the stereo sound is just mindbending here, it feels real and you can almost touch the sounds. You can feel and hear how the recorded elements float around you! This album is an absolute must! Again, it is available on digital format and on CD as well. You can get the physical CD format via the label-link below!.

Stone Wired - G.R.I.M. [2008-2018]



Released last Christmas 2018, a double compilation (and double-sided) cassette release from Stone Wired limited to 66 copies. 2 beautiful cassettes encased in a lovely outer box. Both cassettes contain 2 albums on each side, first one has the albums Grim and Cold Bodies (recorded 2008-2018) and the second tape has the albums Habitual Discomfort and Dead (recorded 2018-2019).

Stone Wired is one of the numerous industrial projects from the same mind which gave us Human Vault, a project which thoroughly explores moody minimal electronic body music (see the former review of Human Vault´s Primordial). Stone Wired works within the perimeter of sinister death-industrial and flesh-scraping industrial-drone ambient. 

The first album called G.R.I.M. moves into death-industrial soundtracks. Really has a lot of "charm" to it, being submerged into every kind of basic human perversions you can think u cannot help but feel that every track has a story to tell. It´s primitive death-industrial with a touch of a high-tech sound, but not high-tech in a glossy and shallow kind of way. A thing between the heavy-ambient horror-soundtrack diversity of Swedish Megaptera to the kind of background stuff one (just might) could notice on albums like The Infidel by Doubting Thomas (Skinny Puppy side-project).

Second album Cold Bodies is something completely else. Murky drone and dark heavy ambiance get mixed up together in a toxic cesspool! Empty (and devoid of life) landscapes stretch on and on without end, almost have a post-nuclear feel to it. Total and pure isolationist ambient music with a focused apocalyptic feel. I would although prefer G.R.I.M. album compared to this one. I am a sucker for sound dynamics and I do think (to a certain degree) that Cold Bodies could use a bit more of that. Could charm the fans of Lustmord or Desiderii Margrnis. 

The third album Habitual Discomfort is... a kind of thing in between the G.R.I.M. and Cold Bodies. More in the ritual-industrial kind of way. Delivering industrial sounds while laying it cool with icy-drones. The coldness of the ambient-orientated tracks on this album actually works better for me than on Cold Bodies. The sound dynamics seem more organic and sincere. One of the tracks on here takes me back to the soundtrack to Clive Carpenter´s excellent sci-fi horror flick The Thing, cold and calculated atmosphere with a sense of... a certain kind of doomed dread which suddenly can appear without a single warning! Interesting focus on true-crime themes on this one, notice the samples/recordings being used here.

Fourth and last offering simply called Dead thrives on industrial noise and bass-driven ambiance. Not that far away from some of the classic and minimalistic recordings with early death-industrial pioneer Brighter Death Now. It has that slightly claustrophobic damp cellar kind of feel, pretty much being engulfed or swallowed up by that specific pitch black kind of darkness. Without a doubt the most sinister of these 4 minialbums on these two cassette-tapes.

 And there you have it. Pretty much worth it from the start and to the end. It delivers what it should deliver when it comes to this kind of death industrial music. Balanced between the old school and the new school of death industrial. High tech sound, but still with a minimal and primitive aesthetic. Not a waste of time at all, worth your time!
