AHNENERBE -"Nacht und Nebel" CD [Autarkeia] 12
(It is one more original record found in archives that, in Autarkeias estimation, could not be forgotten and left unreleased. Particularly unusually constructed, extremely suggestive, gloomy atmosphere of the work could probably be defined as a result of synthesis of several styles of electronic music. Powerful, striking and mysterious mood is created by sounds of especially unconventional dark ambient and concrete music, and sickly, distorted monstrous-sound consonances call out gloomy and uneasy psychedelic emotions. Whole album savours of mystery, anxiety and sensation as if something horrible is approaching or happening. The album s atmosphere, as well as legendary Ahnenerbe institute, raises a lot of questions and presents no answers. It is an impenetrable wail of 'Nacht und Nebel'. For a few chosen it is the openness of mystical science, and for all the rest it is horror, anticipation and obscurity while trying to perceive with strained senses what is actually happening in the catacombs of the institute full of wandering shadows and oppressing hallucinations. Wolfram Sievers (Reichsgeschäftsführer des Ahnenerbes), perhaps was the only one able to reveal the mystery, but he disappeared after performing an uncanny death ritual, and drew an indefeasible line between himself and those who want to know, between those who ask and those who know the answers.)

AEOGA - COAV CD [Aural Hypnox] 12
(The debut album of Aeoga, titled as 'COAV', presents very original and haunting material based on spiralling dark drones, eerie guitar feedback textures, archaic drum and cymbal patterns, atonal / tonal vocalizations and distant / peculiar sample layers.

(a collaboration project between Die Sonne Satan and Runes Order. Dark atmospheres and death ambient)

ATRAX MORGUE - No More CD [Ars Benevola Mater] 12,00

(Atrax Morgue seems to have reached the terminal stage, after more than 10 years of aberrant activity in music de-composing and sound's murder. "No More" is a non-compromise work, a reflection of a man that is watching his end, the cold analysis of the inutility of any action. Obsessive, schizophrenic, violent minimal electronic sounds are a soundtrack of a cold hell of nothingness and purity. But only words that can explain this work are two and simple: No More.)

CIRCADIAN "Flanking the black moose"CD [Radiotarab Records/Eibon] 12

(A pretty challenging listening experience. From the joint efforts of Jason (NOTHING) and Scott(GRUNTSPLATTER) comes the hybrid creature called CIRCADIAN. Schizo-noise ? Semi-glitch ?Power electronics ? Dark ambient ?All this and a lot more...... "Flanking the black moose" will constantly keep you on the edge of an ever-evolving sonic experience by defeating and escaping the usual structures of the genres. When I say "hybrid", I really mean it....)

CLAUSTRUM & TRAUR ZOT - Returning To The Past By Silence CD Rom [oec] 12

(A requiem to the past century, whose peace has been buried under the layers of asphalt, glass and steel, under human indifference and soullessness, under the false values... conceptual work consisting of six parts of sympho-industrial interlacing with darkwave and some martial touch !high quality live recording by Latvian acts Claustrum and Traur Zot .a big surprise to be discovered !!!)

All remastered for this special release!)

CONTROL - The Means to an end CD [Eibon] 12

Redefining the concept of aural aggression. Structured, multi-layered, hyper-complex power noise. Sharp like a surgical scalpel and powerful like a demolition hammer, CONTROL music adds a new meaning to the abused "power electronics" definition. The only good way to describe "The means to an end" ? A fierce beast constrained (temporarily.....) in a steel cage, far too small to contain its natural aggressiveness. The cage won't last forever......)

CONTROL - Algolagnia CD [Freak Animal] 12
(brutal powerelectronics)

CONVALESCENT - Before Sunrise ProCD-R [God is Myth REcords] 12

(This is the debut of a very dark and mysterious project indeed. God is Myth Records is proud to have Convalescent on board for this excellent releaseofsheer nihilistic-sounding dark ambient. Get ready for an album shrouded in bleak mystery and utter darkness. While this release will surely stand onit's own, it will also please those fans of such acts as CAUL and our own THE VICTIMS SHUDDER.)

(After a long silence Deathpile returns with their first official full length release focusing on the Green River Murders in Seattle from the early 1980?s. Lyrics are written from the chronological perspective of the killer,exploring key events and balancing truculent physical situations and aberrant psychological terrain, with terse delivery.Nine tracks of dense and rushing power electronics and sado-ambient atmospheres. Fierce, verging on hysterical vocals and well placed and researched audio samples stand above thick and violent synth beds. By far Deathpile?s most cohesive, strong, and obsessive work fine turned with stark violent force and ritual atmosphere)

KAMMARHEIT - "Asleep And Well Hidden" CD [Cyclic Law] 12

(First ³official² cd from this Swedish master of what we could term Apocalyptic Dark Ambient.
After a streak of cdrs and an apperance on the Nord Ambient Alliance compilation CD, Kammarheit offers us a unique album of tortured sonic landscapes taking us on an unsetteling journey through darkened dreams.Homogeneous dark ambiences combined with serene drones and put together as a shadowy collection of dreamy, melancholic soundscapes, Kammarheit forms images of long lost ruins, barren lands and gigantic, rumbling machines. "Asleep and well hidden" was created as a tool for dreamers, a place to flee to when the outside world comes too close... Re-press of 500 copies comes in a 6 panel textured cardboard sleeve.)
