Repressed! "What does a person do when faced with a work like
Imperial Distortion
? There are rare moments in an artist's work where they reveal a greater truth. Kevin Drumm has already made such a statement with his last major solo work, 2002's
Sheer Hellish Miasma
. Where that record took noise music to a new level of near-impenetrable exactitude,
Imperial Distortion
is an altogether different beast. Beauty as an aesthetic can be as terrifying as horror, desire unfulfilled, romance that lingers and never goes away, no matter how disappointing. A preoccupation with death can be the only result. On this extended long-form release, Kevin Drumm comes face to face with minimal drone music and confronts the genre by providing one of its absolute pinnacles at the forefront; movement. Dron e music at its most concentrated and ably performed has build and depth in its tones. Although there might be the illusion of stasis, the opposite is true. From the opening 20-minute track 'Guillain-Barre,' the mood of the album is laid clear. The arrangements are shadowy layers of soundtrack-like tones not entirely unlike the work that Popul Vuh provided for Herzog's films. By track two, 'More Blood and Guts,' with its ominous bell tones, it becomes apparent that there is a true nothing that's associated with these sounds, other than the mood-inducing hypnosis and the feeling of drowning, yet having no ability to fight the slow pull. The middle portion of the record is 'Snow,' which was released as a limited cassette last year on Hospital Productions. This material was a teaser for the full album
Imperial Distortion
. The tracks have an almost ballad-esque sense of elegance, using tone and frequency as melodic portals to nowhere. The sustain in the piece suggests a weight while remaining alarmingly pleasant to the ears. The tension suggests an anxiety that never truly dies. The alarm comes from the juxtaposition of tones and mood. While the tones may sound gorgeous in their purity, the mood implies a profound sense of unease and perhaps an acceptance of the inevitability of existential dilemma. This point is most thoroughly evidenced by the albums closer, 'We All Get It In the End.' While the piece starts out with lullaby ease, a few minutes in, an equally severe dark drone eclipses the light and the night takes over. Here in the enveloped sounds, the clouds pass over the moonlight creating a spectral dark that is unforgettable in its intensity. To answer the initial question of
Imperial Distortion
, this is a work that commands intellectual and emotional commitment on the levels of the greatest works to come from this genre. Kevin Drumm has accomplished that rare balance to create a masterwork that no one has yet to come close to in this era. Your best bet is to surrender."

Sexual Infinty
stands refreshingly organized into six escalating pieces of her signature guitar, voice, and electronic moodscapes entrancing the listener with sinister seduction. Comparisons to early '80s power electronics and industrial acts as Uncommunity, Mauthausen Orchestra and Ramleh reside in the underbelly of Zaïmph's ability to generate ominous, gritty and doom-laden atmosphere cloaked in a thick lush drone. What begins with raw, ethereal guitar shadows of longing delight closes with vital, gripping electronic tension."

"
All Are Guests In the House of the Lord
is the first collaboration between Prurient and Kevin Drumm. Both artists are regarded as singular stylistic entities in their own right. Kevin Drumm is known equally from his more improvised work with Jim O'Rourke and Taku Sugimoto as well as being a mainstay in the Chicago noise world with releases like
Sheer Hellish Miasma
on the Mego label. Prurient has been toiling in the fields of noise for over a decade and has developed an increasingly dynamic output incorporating darkly arranged synths. Their cumulative work displayed here is both unexpected and focused. Using source sounds of intense tonal drones supplied by Drumm, the two create a haunted atmosphere that is far removed from noise, exploring minimal junctures, using field recording and clean patient vocals to lead the way.
All Are Guests In the House Of The Lord
is among the darkest record in either artist's catalog. The subtle textures of the electronics combined with near-cinematic arrangements make for a record that is engaging and consistent in mood of tension."

Inside The Shadow
reveals three textures brought to life with violin, chimes and bells that defy most of the contemporaries' limitations to synth-only exercises. Yeh proves the heart of landscape-oriented linear composition is only limited by the imaginations of the creators and brings warmth to an otherwise cold genre with the flame of

"As far as the history of power electronics goes, few acts have maintained as much interest and activity as Sutcliffe Jügend. The duo of Paul Taylor and Kevin Tompkins has released crucial early recordings on labels as revered as Come Organization and Broken Flag. The group has resumed actions under the Sutcliffe Jügend banner with a return album,
This is the Truth
last year also on Hospital Productions. While that record pleased fans old and new with the power electronics style SJ helped pioneer, the release of
The Fall of Nature
brings us a new level destruction using sounds almost unthinkably ambient yet no less disturbing.
The Fall of Nature
is a epic, grandiose drone piece -- almost one hour of pure electronics that echoes the masters of the form. The album grows in intensity throughout the recording, making for an unexpected release. There are many sides of darkness and many ways to express it.
The Fall of Nature
is the balance of sound, in a listenable format. The initial feeling is that of an almost holy, heavenly sound, the skies opening in tribute to the nature which is falling. Yet fans of classic SJ will be plenty pleased at the psychotically manic conclusion that will not disappoint any fans of PE terror. This music takes aim at several nerve centers at once. This is not just noise, drone or PE but something new that mixes various elements of each together for the first time." Co-release with Groundfault Recordings.

HOS 215CD
"Fresh off his solo breakthrough LP
Future Without A Chance
on the legendary RRR label, Jason Crumer returns with
Ottoman Black
, an album of midnight drones and true noise. Using powerfully clear electronics as a base for declarative noise bursts, Crumer manipulates the sounds with a resounding animosity. In the vein of past Hospital releases from Pedestrian Deposit and Air Conditioning, Crumer yields a mean streak and an array of silences over the course of the album. The theme here is personal relations with tracks like 'Betrayal After Betrayal' which has an almost conversational quality, both the screams and the muffles, the physicality. 'Pissed Off Response' is an actionist-influenced piece of torture. There's nothing not painful here, especially the quiet -- the peaks are almost a relief.
Ottoman Black
is a stern and unforgiving universe."

"The first full-length of this heavily active live unit from Providence, RI. There is no solid footing in shallow waters. Only a suffocating hail of falling rock, strangling vines, and sinkholes. It is with rare exception that voice spits the last of breaths, the dying breaths, with such spite. Like a rabbit trapped in the hole of the snake's throat, this duo comprised of members of Immaculate:Grotesque and Em Dath Rir batter and tear their way through six tracks of power electronics eco-fallout and revolutionary anger. Although there is not one moment of relief in this litany of rage, Shallow Waters separates themselves from the pack by creating an album and not just a collection of tracks with the focus of a sniper and the fury of napalm.

"Hospital Productions is proud to announce the debut full length from Brooklyn's Yellow Tears. Yellow Tears features members of Halflings and provides a diverse industrial noise collage. Painful and reflective abuse covers the hands, the face. With a wide hole, guitars, junk, and electricity are swallowed and slurped up with gargling enthusiasm. Compositions raise questions and provide little of answers ... short tracks slide through, under and between but never leave the cap on the pen.

Here are the first two demos by this obscure and controversial French outlaw black metal band, known for their decadent activities.
Pacta Daemoniarum

Crasse
released in 2001. Both exhibited twisted, vociferous manic vocals spit on top of complex, orchestrated and highly distorted chaotic metal. Never resting and fully absorbed in the savage, sexually violent, drug-laden nihilism of French subculture."

HOS 232CD
"Since the inception of both Prurient and the Hospital Productions label, cassette releases have been an essential format for the communication and participation in the industrial/noise culture. For Prurient, these cassette releases contain some of the most visceral and beloved works in the Prurient catalog.
Cocaine Death
is a compilation of three of Prurient's finest Hospital cassette releases as well as two unreleased tracks. The previously released material forms a triptych exploring the relationship between futile pleasure, substance and escape; escape being a myth.
Cocaine Death
(originally C-10 packaged in an envelope, limited to 46 copies) is perhaps the most sought after of the recent Prurient cassettes. The content is based on the glamour and destruction of toxic night life. The B-side features guest vocals from FFH and continues the themes with the addition of bondage. This material is a considered classic modern Prurient.
Caribbean Overdose
(originally a C-10, packaged in a standard shell package and limited to 100 copies) explores a different but strangely direct topic of the sexual reproductive life of plants. There is nothing common or typical about the sounds and direction of this material. Further examination into the life of scientific advancement and education.
Tylenol Murders
(originally a C-10, packaged in an oversized envelope and limited to 10 copies) takes the sounds and concepts of the aforementioned releases and expands the sounds to further limits of cracked static, strained vocals and strange melodic loops. This sought after limited material is seeing the light on this release to most Prurient listeners for the first time. This collection of cassette material is perhaps the biggest clue in the development of Prurient. This is where the edges blur and advancements reveal themselves. When Prurient material is released in the ether its shock-waves often take on a life of their own. For the first time, listeners of all levels can revel in their abstract longing and tension. For the diehards, two unreleased tracks of Prurient. There's a reason why these releases continue to live on long after the cassettes disappear. This CD shows the power and depth of Prurient in the cassette world. For those whose spindles still spin and those who have moved on,
Cocaine Death
shows revelation. Digipack CD with 16 page booklet."

Always Wrong
is a mantra of severity. Wolf Eyes has been scouring audiences across the globe with their acid drenched industrial noise and dub terror psychedelia, establishing themselves as the trailblazers of a genre and pioneers of the long-form noise tour. Coming forth from the piles of tape loops and effects, the bulk of tables reeling with electronics have been shed. This clarity never sacrifices intensity as paradoxically this is the most organic of the full lengths but also the harshest and most dissonant. Opening track 'Cellar' immediately sets the pace of barraged edits and percussive electronics as startling vocals spit from the dry throat and remain unfiltered for the first time breathing a clear litany of scorn. A new voice is rising and it isn't happy. Throughout the album, non-electronic beats created from live drums replace programming while colliding tape loops and junk metal bring new unstable rhythm like a house with eroding foundation. 'Living Stone' shows a more natural state of acoustic composition highlighting the despondent, subtle plucking of controlled guitar improvisation that could come from natures ghost. Forging ahead in 'We All Hate You,' loud tonal horns and architecturally placed electronics. However, their aesthetic core of pummeling hasn't been abandoned as the aggressive 'Broken Order' takes hold, with shrill feedback fueling industrial cannon blasts of white hot noise that burn the body from the neck down. An eerie harmonica driven death march straight out of
Once Upon A Time In The West
cries on the closing track 'Droll/Cut The Dog.' Immediately it is clear that Wolf Eyes have crafted a statement with maturity that stands at the top of their mysterious discography.
Always Wrong
is a denial against conformity and the triumph of walking a path alone. Young, Olson, Connelly."

Cremations
is a collection of early demo/live/and unreleased tracks from Cold Cave. From the project's isolated beginnings to the recent full band line-up, the development of this singular musical entity is documented here in its icy electronic glory. From Cold Cave's infancy, sexual identity and oblique existentialism have been expressed through biting lyrics and electronic minimalism. Rarely has the human condition been exposed so brazenly as in 'Sex Ads.' Melodies, noise and rhythms clash as stories from below the surface are retold. From the demo LP
Coma Potion
, which featured a rugged stripped down distortion, to the suggestive
Electronic Dreams
tour cassette (featuring the voice of Max Morton on the track 'Heavenly Metals'), Cold Cave has developed its own brand of genre defying electronic music, without ever betraying its dark roots. Love and pornography, industrial music and traditionalism, poetry and profanity all mix together in a hedonistic cocktail of nihilistic nights and mournful mornings.

Imperial Horizon
by Kevin Drumm is a further examination into sustained tone as most recently heard on his previous Hospital Productions benchmark album,
Imperial Distortion
, stretching out minimalism to unreached heights of serene ambient, lulling electronic drones slowly transform over the course of the hour plus piece in constant flux, echoing both an existential terror and Zen calm. Mutations grow so quietly only the body opens to identify this change while the mind closes. The ephemeral and seeming lightness of the tones hang with taut balance in contrast to the method in which they are overlapped and rotated with deadly weight. How wildly divergent emotions rise, hover, and fall using so little is a mystery that only Kevin Drumm can provide. While you may not find an answer, you can certainly get lost in the question."

"We are proud to announce the new album from this long-running Russian black metal legend. Violent, angular, and twisting original black metal with disturbing clear voices from the 666 dimension. Further words from Marco of Seed Stock Records regarding the new Blackdeath:
'Hot blood in the frozen wastes, tormented sleeps, no rest, no peace -- always some war to be fought. Blackdeath keep fighting, living life as war. On this new album, all of the wildness and violence that Blackdeath have been renowned for have now hardened into an idiosyncratic and cracked style: manic vocals that switch between black rasp and psychotic singing, nordic-style riffs that are somehow bent into a weapon with sharper angles, and a song progression that is equal parts percussive brawl and wide-eyed revelation. After six albums you'd think that they would have plateaued, or grown tired, but no. Rather, here, you find them in the strongest form since the band's inception back in 1998. They now have finally secured themselves a real drummer, and full-professional studio sound. For some underground black metal bands, that might equal an awkward combination, but Blackdeath have always been stubbornly focused on quality of riff and refined composition of song, which translates perfectly in this level of production. 'Blackdeath means black metal' and effectively it is presented here on
Katharsis
without the trappings of politic or theologian rhetoric, and it's given in its most potent and straightforward dosage.'

During this time I rediscovered many of my favorite old cassette compilations from the '90s that brought many disparate groups together under one banner.

, released on Italy's Less Than Zero, was of particular interest, with its sonically and geographically diverse lineup. Also at this time a friend had given me a book on 20th Century Russian history, emphasizing strife in Russia and the overwhelming destructive forces of nature and man's place within it. Not only were troops engaged in the largest man-made conflict in history, but were, at the same, battling nature. Without coats, winter ended soldiers' lives before bullets could find them. It was then that I decided to combine the themes of the book with the idea of a dynamic compilation that brought together many of the genres that the la bel has explored." Artists include: Genocide Organ, Deathpile, Consumer Electronics, Sutcliffe Jugend/Prurient, Controlled Bleeding, Non, Militia, The Grey Wolves, Sleepchamber, Incapacitants, Yellow Tears, The Haters, Emil Beaulieau, Con-Dom and more.
