This piece is from a rehearsal in a concrete basement almost ten years ago. Recorded directly onto a Marantz cassette player – heavy, angular, abrasive – just like this piece itself

Refrain From Now

Eerie sounds, industrialized beats and a conniving gang which convey a terrific sound as if it were their last. The group is called Irklis and their track is titled "Time For Terror". If you've got time for anything like it, I suggest you listen to it. It's a perfect and straightforward, rhytmic piece of electronic music.

LEVpodcast - Mika Vainio (L.E.V. 2012)

The Latvian industrial music label STURM, operating as events series since 1995 and as a label since 2000, releasing industrial related music by Latvian artists presents a forthcoming album release by German/ Latvian minimal EBM/ electro-industrial band IRKLIS entitled "Onkalo".

IRKLIS have been recording music since the late 1980s and had released their previous albums in co-operation with Eric Van Wonterghem's Sleepless Berlin Records.


“Onkalo” is IRKLIS’ fourth album and it contains 11 new songs. The title is a Finnish word describing a hiding place, a small cave used by animals. This basically unencumbered name stands in stark contrast to the possible nuclear horror it hides today, because Onkalo is also the name for the first final repository for nuclear waste in history and it is in Finland. Extreme contrast and abuse of meaning is one central topic of the album Onkalo.

All songs will include a separate video by the aspiring Turkish artist Griang. The videos will be presented on IRKLIS’ youtube channel starting from February 2021.

The lyrics of the song “Into eternity” are from the documentary film of the same name by Mad Madsen, who follows the construction of the Onkalo waste repository, and they state a warning – “A hiding place for the fire to burn into eternity. Go no further.”

Today, we premiere the track 'Omen', a slow ebm track, with subtle industrial influences, developing in a retrospective soundscape. Drums like slow burning flames, in a blurry and hopeless urban field.



Release date: 28th of February 2021, on all streaming platforms and on Digipack CD

All songs composed, produced, recorded and mixed by IRKLIS (DE, LV).
Mastering by Herman Klapholz – aka Ah Cama-Sotz (BE).
Album design by Ieva Ziema (LV).
Video art by Griang (TR).

Release date: 28/02/21

Onkalo

Premiere: Irklis - Omen (Sturm)

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from IRKLIS. "Into eternity" comes off their upcoming album, to be released on Latvian label Sturm. The German/Latvian post-industrial act returns to Sturm with a brand new full-length – “Onkalo”. The sound of IRKLIS is based in the tradition of electro-industrial and minimal EBM, and is largely affected by the vintage synths and gear they continue to use since the eighties. Focused and discreet, yet upfront, not over-polished and not lacking a groove.

The release is out February 28th. Pre-order now: https://sturmmandat.bandcamp.com/album/onkalo
