"Spectral Metabolism" CD
(k/k012) Kaos-Kontrol
Haunting revelation of sonic worlds where primal elements and archaic
voices flux side by side with contemporary methods of amplifying the
relation between sound and mind to culmination. Whirling soundscapes
of organic and natural phenomena woven together with the synthetic
and manipulated; the outcome being nothing short of utmost brilliance
in the field of dark ambient and post-industrial. After a few highly
acclaimed limited CDr works, the Finnish duo finally presents their
first CD release, undoubtedly setting out to challenge the stagnance
of the genre they master eminently. Stunning black/white oversized
foldout carton sleeve.

IGNIS
FATUSS "In Our Mad Bliss" CD
(Ign059) Eibon Records
Back in 1998, IGNIS FATUUS released one of the
most impressive debut albums ever - "The futility goddess"

ambient, wave (with amazing vocal contributions from SWANS-singer
Jarboe) gathered a load of positive feedbacks from everywhere. Now,
almost 8 years later, IGNIS FATUUS strike back with "In our mad
bliss". Dark, warm, rich, gloomy music that transcends boundaries
and defies definitions. Fairy-tinted musical scenarios, impressive
female vocals, a sensual and seductive journey through a gently illuminated
nocturnal world. Let Christus777 & Melysa Baucom take you by hand,
and let yourself be cherished by the wonderful melodies of this magical
universe...Let the fairies fly in...

IMPULSANTWORT
& TELEPHERIQUE "Bewegung Der Klangmasse" split CD
(osmcd015) Oskores Music
The deafening lethargic sonic project created by the german artists
of telepherique and impulsantwort. it involves producing, haunting
dark drones, hypnotic ambients and pulses from liquids of different
tensile strengths. "to joint the equalized spawn of impulsantwort,
dreadfully pertinacious, and the radio-active glaze of telepherique
on this unitary sound-trimmer, we need to perturb the transparent
cranioscopy of the alkalized dysphonia.
"bewegung der klangmasse" is flirting with some concentrated
sonic epithelium while the immolated magnetometry is murmuring against
our everlasting prediction. it's not premature to relegate this sterilized
work on the thermostatic reverence which awakes again portentous impressions.
a terrific soundscape in the chimney of gravitational brains!"

MEDITARIUM "Mare Internum 7"
(CR75) Drone Records
IN MEDITARIUM is maybe Ukraine's finest dark ambient-project at this
time, consisting of Sergey Svistelnik (who also runs the UKRAINIAN
DARK SYNDICATE and is musically active as FILIVS MACROCOSMI), and
Oleg Kolyada (mastermind of FIRST HUMAN FERRO (F.H.F.) / ODA RELICTA).
MARE INTERNUM, their first vinyl-release, is a perfect example for
"esoteric organic drones" that impress with their density
and fullness: slowly waving drones, sub-bass pulses, totally suspended
& hidden harmonies appear in the background and soft ringing-tones,
like being in an huge organic cathedral... Listening to IN MEDITARIUM-sounds
might give you an impression of touching something "unknown",
yet known unconsciously from some forgotten time...like being suspended
in warm mothers womb....The coverartwork shows a combined symbol made
of Yantra (meditation), Rosa (woman) and OM (the absolute), showing
the way from Uterus to Universe. WHITE VINYL. SILKSCREENED SYMBOL-COVERS
first edition released December 2005, 300 copies.

SLAUGHTER NATIVES "Resurrection" CD
(cmi135) Cold Meat Industry
One of the very first outbursts on Cold Meat Industry were In Slaughter
Natives, and still to this day they are one of the most renowned and
well-respected acts on the label and the industrial scene today. Since
the birth of J. Havukainen's brainchild back in 1988, the accumulated
brilliance and overall excitement of every In Slaughter Natives release
have far surpassed what any other band, man or woman can possibly
accomplish over the extent of a lifetime; and this time is no different.
We are awestruck by the bombastic mayhem and the classical agony of
hell's philharmonic orchestra coming to visit, and we bow our heads
in reverence to the frantic growls of the king himself grinning from
his place in your living room sofa. This is pure brilliance; a masterpiece
which proves that all these lonely years of everlasting anticipation
have been worth the wait; In Slaughter Natives are back and still
an untamed force to be reckoned with. This is the soundtrack to the
rising apocalypse, the mad laughter of the heretic burned at the stake;
this is the return of a king!

"Madre Protégenos" CD
(eqm009) Equilibrium Music
Named after the Gaelic word for 'pure', Íon seems to illude
strict categorization, and even the apparently all-encompassing definition
of World Music falls short in defining the ethereal moods that "Madre,
Protégenos" comes to reveal. A project of Duncan Patterson
who's career traces back to the early 90's, when he began his musical
incursions as a member of Anathema, a group that would pioneer and
remain as forerunners of the unique Doom Metal genre throughout that
decade.
