Deutsch Nepal - Alcohology

2015-12-17 (News)

Deutsch Nepal and Lina Baby Doll are back after 5 years in the retreat of the Swedish woods with a new album - "Alcohology". Album mainly contains slow pounding industrial music in the vein that are familiar to all Deutsch Nepal fanatics in the same way as the previous album "Amygdala". Swirling mirrors of looped sounds loosely glued together with pounding or haunting beats followed with simple melodic input. The dystopian vocals present a surrealistic scenario built up inside your head while listening. 
The thoughtful statements of the gain and dangers of the consumption of alcohol continues as a theme all through the album and end with a re-recording of "Erosion" from the album with the same name from 1999 where the impact fluids have, not only on the human body but also on Mother Earth itself.

Kirlian Camera - It Doesn't Matter Now

2015-12-15 (News)

For the first time ever on CD: the very first official album by Kirlian Camera, originally released in 1983 by Angelo Bergamini and Simona Buja. Digitally remastered for this occasion and presented with a new cover. This brilliant first chapter is the first official opus by the project, following the "Kirlian Camera" minialbum, and presents two important singles "Communicate" and "Edges" – singles that opened the band the opportunity for some TV-appearances and a first success in clubs, magazines and audience, establishing Kirlian Camera as one of the most promising new bands in the 80's New Wave and Dark Scene! A real monumental album for the period, full of energy, with sounds that were very typical for that period: a dark wave with clear post-punk and modern-pop influences – a mix that will become a real trademark for the band during the 80s, an own, and very original sound in a combination of anger and hypnotics, a mix of several atmospheres, always very difficult to categorize or to be cloned by other bands.

SUNN O))) - Kannon

2015-12-13 (News)

Consisting of three pieces of a triadic whole, the roots to SUNN O)))’s new album trace deeply into the sessions of their 2009-released "Monoliths & Dimensions" LP and very recent collaborative recordings with Ulver ("Terrestrials", 2014) and Scott Walker ("Soused", 2015), culminated and fully realized this year. Recorded and mixed with SUNN O)))’s close colleague and co-producer Randall Dunn, "Kannon" is as always composed around the immense guitar and bass interplay of founders Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson, and includes performances by long term allies and collaborators Attila Csihar, Oren Ambarchi, Rex Ritter, Steve Moore and others. 
The literal representation of "Kannon" is as an aspect of Buddha: commonly known as the Guanyin Bodhisattva (Chinese: 觀音菩薩) amongst a plurality of other forms.
