Double LP edition. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Includes download card. Limited to 500 copies. Post industrial pioneers Sutcliffe Jugend take everything to a new level with the beautifully packaged album Offal. With printed lyrics included for the first time, we get to the heart of Sutcliffe Jugend at their euphoric and vilifying best. Words that will make you question what it is to be truly human and not the conformist PC neo-liberal slave so prevalent and encouraged in the modern era. The production on the album sounds massive compared to previous releases, giving the carefully constructed songs an intense, brutal and relentless environment not heard before. Kevin Tomkins' vocals are pushed to new extremes, doing battle with Paul Taylor's vicious guitar and synth work. Offal features four epic tracks (55 minutes) of naked emotional release that will leave the listener breathless and gasping for more. Features monochrome paintings by Kevin Tomkins.

Harsh extreme electronic pioneers Sutcliffe Jugend return with an album of all new material. Three years in the making, and with numerous reworkings, With Extreme Prejudice finds Sutcliffe Jugend at the top of their game. Forcing the listener to question their own prejudices and taboos, as modern man struggles to confront and control his inner demons. Musically and lyrically this is SJ's most varied album to date, ranging from harsh electronic onslaughts to a new kind of musical oblivion. Production and sound values are closer to industrial music than ever before, creating a very different feel to their previous filthwork Pigdaddy. Enter if you dare, the very twisted and real world of Sutcliffe Jugend as they execute With Extreme Prejudice. Includes an eight-page booklet and slipcase.

"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.
