skullflowerpure imperial reform” compact disc

  • pure imperial reform (42:06)
april 2008 release ; brand spanking new full-length from skullflower, here pared down to the core-duo of matthew bower & the vastly under-rated english dronesmith lee “culver” stokoe (whose work you can find in altering combinations above/below) ... this is only the second release by the duo-lineup & i must say it smokes - a single 42-minute “wall” of chugging guitar colossus; incomparable ...

theoretically expensive u.k. import whittled down to a reasonable price due to my dilligent hoarding ; i honestly doubt you’ll find this for a better price pretty much anywhere out there in the world. skullflower fans, casual or completist, you need this ... highly recommended !!!

ps. you’ve all prob. gathered that i’ve been on something of a skullflower kick for, oh, the past 12 years ... let’s face it; bower’s been the titan of straddling the metal/psych/doom/drone divide for just about as long as i’ve been aware of it (full disclosure; my first “real” band el-ron was formed with the clear intent of merging skullflower and free jazz) ... much more in the pipeline from bower’s axis over the coming weeks ...

skullflower - "pure imperial reform" cd

mutant ape / mlehst - split 7" vinyl

two sides of experimental music on 33rpm. ma side is harsh building ambience in a similar vein to the track on the split 7" with the rita. mlehsts track is a tonal experiment and is really soothing. due to printing error, the labels are on the wrong way round so mutant ape side has mlehst on it and vice versa. limited to 220 copies in pro-printed sleeves.

anok22:: justice yeldham and the dynamic ribbon device "birthdays" lp

black vinyl, b-on-w labels, 2-sided glue-on cover art (lim 600, 200 for uxsx distro). now available

birthdays consists of two live sets by maverick amplified-glass player justice yeldham recorded during his & keg's recent tour of europe. if you've never heard of the guy you are in for a bloody treat. using concert-grade piano contact mics, he amplifies a sheet of glass and plays it with his mouth and face, processing it with pedals attached to his belt, usually barefooted. the results are unworldly, and hearing it you would never imagine what created it, something only an aussie could achieve. like careening assaults of insect spaceships, he transports the listener to other worlds of sound, ending most often in a crash of the glass upon his head. he survives, bloody but alive, never worse for wear in the morning.

side a was captured in marseille on the eve of justice's 35th birthday while side b was recorded on kegs birthday in porto. and to top off the birthday cheer keg also did the cover illustration as a gift for justice's birthday. mastered by the god-like rasheed of dubplates (berlin), the record has been collaboratively released in an edition of 600 copies across the world by anarchymoon recordings (north america), turgid animal (europe) & all thumbs press (australia).
