Originally released on CDR by ANNIHILVS in 2011, WITHOUT ME was a tremendously ambitious effort. Spanning half a year of production, WITHOUT ME brings together a superstar collaborative team. The album was masterminded by Lee M. Bartow (THEOLOGIAN, ANNIHILVS), who adapted a slew of incomplete tracks by multi-instrumentalist Carrie Lisa Ingber (ex-PAPER DAGGERS), a Berklee School of Music graduate with a degree in Film Scoring, who turned her lifelong infatuation with THE CURE into a profound talent for constructing perfect contemporary shoegaze.

By incorporating the guitar talents of Mike Hill (TOMBS), John LaMacchia (SPYLACOPA, CANDIRIA), Derek Rush (DREAM INTO DUST, CHTHONIC STREAMS), and three-fourths of now-defunct Brooklyn rockers TOURNAMENT, Ingber's collection of four minute gloomy pop songs have been transported into darker territory by Bartow and company, adding a bit of industrial grit and the occasional expansive drone dirge.
The album was partly engineered with the aid of Bartow's longtime friend and collaborator, Kevin Reilly, Jr. (CHARLIE VICTOR ROMEO, KRISHNA DAS).

As the tenth anniversary of this important release approaches, ANNIHILVS has joined forces with LaMacchia's RISING PULSE RECORDS to produce a new cassette+digital edition, featuring brand new mixes by Raab Codec (SNOWBEASTS, COMPONENT RECORDINGS), who also mastered the album. Three SNOWBEASTS remixes (one on the cassette, two on the digital version) have also been included.
An additional five new remixes from Kevin Reilly’s original sessions have been included for the digital edition.

NTT. PHASE01: ARCHIVE 1997 DIGITAL COLLECTION
RELEASES AUGUST 22, 2020

As the story goes, ANNIHILVS was originally founded in the summer of 1997 to release AMALGAM: A COLLECTION OF WAR POEMS, a split CD by NTT and NEGATIVE EIGHT, the genre-bending electronic side project of industrial/metal band NEGATIVEHATE, whose members happened to live around the corner from my mom's house.

On July 17, 2020, former NTT collaborator Scott "Solitude" Walker, contacted me to ask if I'd be interested in hearing recently unearthed cassette recordings of our earliest work together.
All told, over five hours of material has been collected, ranging from the first bedroom recordings and sessions mixed by my longtime friend, engineer Kevin Reilly, Jr., at the NYU student recording studios... which, coincidentally took place exactly 23 years earlier, on July 17, 1997. Our seminal live performance, at the release party for the AMALGAM CD on August 22, 1997, closes the tracklist.

While a small fraction of the material here has been released previously in other archival collections, PHASE01 possesses vastly superior sound quality, having been digitised by Scott from his original four track masters.

Of particular note is the fact that a bevy of additional tracks featuring original NTT vocalist Elle Gaston, unheard and forgotten for more than twenty years, have been included. Way back around the same time these recordings were originally captured, Elle posed for a series of images shot by photographer Lisa Cerreta, which have been adapted for an entirely new layout to accompany this edition, with liner notes written by Scott.

In 2021, Chicago-based solo black metal project ANNIHILUS will release a cassette of atmospheric drone tracks on ANNIHILVS, in what will truly be a marriage made in the capitol city of Hell.
ANNIHILUS has recently released his debut vinyl LP, GHANIMA to critical acclaim via AMERICAN DREAMS RECORDS and the video for DESTROY THE FUTURE was featured in MONOMER TV Season Two Episode 5.

ANNIHILUS. THE VOICE OF THE SHAI-HULUD (UNMASTERED)

The absolutely brilliant UK solo industrial project PRIMITIVE KNOT will join the ANNIHILVS roster in 2021 with TRIUMPH ÖV DEAF, a collection of cover songs on cassette.
PRIMITIVE KNOT has been making major waves this year, with releases on DEATHBED TAPES and DAMIEN RECORDS, and multiple videos featured on MONOMER TV, it was only a matter of time before we jumped at the chance to work with him, especially given that he's collaborated multiple times with our great friend Joan Pope of TEMPLE OV SATURN.

PRIMITIVE KNOT. ORGONE ACCUMULATOR (Hawkwind Cover)(MASTERED)

ANNIHILVS is disgusted to admit our association with the foul, reeking ambulatory waste product that is GROT. A creature composed of pure ugly, GROT defies the laws of nature; it is the sound of sewage made sentient, of loathing made atmosphere, of black clouds above rotted cities where stinking corpses occupy every possible corner, and the air is thick with flies.
Our first release of 2021, THE FACE OF GROT cassette will include a special edition of five copies that each come with a 4 inch GROTLING figurine.

GROT. PROLAPSED HEART

WET PNEUMATIC, the new full-length album from Oakland, California's LAMENT CITYSCAPE (whose members have all now relocated to different parts of the country), is coming soon. Compiling the band's three self-released EPs which were unleashed at specific points throughout 2020, the ANNIHILVS Compact Disc edition will include additional material.

"All three EPs were written and recorded in 2017 while I was in this space of not knowing what to do next with this project. Everyone in the band had moved to a different state and my personal life was transitioning in ways that were so new to me. It was a very confusing time. It definitely encompassed the entire spectrum of feelings."
– Mike McClatchey

"LAMENT CITYSCAPE enters a drearier and more enigmatic trajectory with [The Old Wet]. Grappling with different low and lurching tones, ambient rumbles, hypnotic hymns, and decomposing textures throughout the three tracks, the ever-evolving experimental industrial act ends a chapter and opens a new door at the same time."
- The Sleeping Shaman

A stylistic amalgamation of post-doom metal and late 80s/early 90s era guitar-driven industrial (fans of WAX TRAX! RECORDS and NINE INCH NAILS take note), with the pristine production of frontman Mike McClatchey, WET PNEUMATIC promises to be an outstanding entry in the LAMENT CITYSCAPE discography.

LAMENT CITYSCAPE. BLEEDBACK LOOP
