MASONNA 'Frequency L.S.D.' LP (CSR297LP)

Originally released on CD in 1998 (Alien8 Recordings), "Frequency L.S.D." is now presented on vinyl for the first time. Features 14 ear-wrenching, extreme Japanese Noise tracks from Maso Yamazaki (Controlled Death).

"Frequency L.S.D. is the best Masonna CD ever, and one of the top five noise albums of all time" (Matt Kaufmann, Exile Osaka).

Ltd x 400 copies on 180g black vinyl.

Maso Yamazaki: Voice, Microphone, EXPJ Ringmodulater, Colorsound Pedals, 60's Fuzz Noise Canister, Spectral Audio Analogsynth, Sherman Filterbank, Delay.

"The cult icon of Japanoise once again makes another proverbial anti-statement with his uniquely harsh blend of screams, feedback, and constantly changing blasts, rumbles and blips of sonic destruction... The main attraction of this release to new and old fans alike is the use of 60's psychedelia in the warped textures of sound laid out in each track. Instead of being treated to a barrage of uncontrolled, harsh, and maddening noise, we are treated to lengthy explorations into the joys of warped synthesizer repetition and digitally altered radio frequency loops... the best noise release put out by any artist and, after just one listen, it's not hard to hear why." (Chronicles Of Chaos)

DEAD DEAR BODY: episode 4

bringing bad news to his family. I'm not hurring. I'm thinking. I'm thinking about God, demons. I have never been so close to death and you inadvertenly begin to ask him for forgiveness for everything, so that he wouldn't be angry, so that death not force you to do the same. maybe then, as a sign of foriveness, he will come to me in a dream to take me away but I would refuse.

the end.

The flour massacre occurred in Gaza on 29 February 2024. At least 118 Palestinian civilians were killed and at least 760 were injured after Israeli forces opened fire on civilians who were attempting to get food from aid trucks on al-Rashid street at the Al-Nabulsi roundabout to the west of Gaza City. The event has been recognized as a massacre by journalists, diplomats, and human rights organizations, although the description is disputed by the Israeli military. Officials from three hospitals respectively reported treating over 100, 142, and "dozens" of people with gunshot wounds,with a "large number of gunshot wounds" confirmed at al-Shifa Hospital by the United Nations. The details of the incident are under investigation; Israel stated that Israeli forces first fired warning shots in the air and then opened fire out of fear of a moving "mob" of Palestinians, and that the event caused a mass panic

Art As Catharsis is proud to announce the release of Uboa’s The Sky May Be – an overpowering record that slips between dreamy ambience and nightmarish caverns of harsh noise.

https://uboa.bandcamp.com/album/the-sky-may-be-2

Drawing elements from the trans-driven noise scene, Xandra Metcalfe’s work as Uboa condenses a wider range of influences into a frightening soundscape of its own. Fans of Purgist, Facialmess, Endon, Locrian, Nurse With Wound, along with artists on the No Rent and Triangle Records labels will find themselves right at home with this recording.

“I only take inspiration from things that immediately affect me,” says Metcalfe. “Various trans issues that do not get airtime in music in particular - trans subcultures, transmisogyny/transphobia, medication, passing, sterilisation, suicide and depression, isolation. A lot of the stuff about mental illness - depression, psychosis, anxiety etc. - comes directly from my experience as being trans in a cisnormative society.”

As the first single off The Sky May Be, Thigh High Cat Tights represents Metcalfe’s most terrifying work on the album. Driven by white noise, distortion and glitched shrieks, the song rampages beyond the realms of tangible before tunnelling into a monotone plateau of drone. Thigh High Cat Tights is the audio equivalent of a hellscape for androids – all the while serving as ambassador for the digital savagery and abrasiveness Uboa is capable of.

“Uboa was originally just for doom, noisy stuff that I did on a whim,” says Metcalfe. “Afterwards I used its anonymity to spread rumours I was a woman well before I was out, which was funny. It became a little vessel for me to escape myself at the time. I guess it helps me be myself? Sounds corny but true. That being said, nowadays I just use it to scare people, which is always fun.”

The Sky May Be offers a teetering balance between simmering moods and terrifying electronics. The record rattles with a sense of instability from start to finish – song structures are freeform and unbound by chorus or verse, harsh elements attack at random yet land perfectly, and it’s rare that any single track can be summed up as solely ambient or noise. The sum of the music is a feeling that pushes sound and mind to its limits, reaping new forms of terror and weakness as the seconds pass by. 

This unbridled creativity is in a class of its own, unshackled by the boundaries of genre or traditional construction – it’s within this freedom that The Sky May Be sets itself as one of this year’s most important releases in Australian harsh noise.

Eartheater - Phoenix: La Petite Mort Édition 
Format: DL
Cat.No. PAN 112-R
Release Date: 26 February 2021
Purchase: pan.lnk.to/LaPetiteMort

Last year, Eartheater released her latest album, Phoenix: Flames Are Dew Upon My Skin, via PAN.Eartheater is now sharing a fully reworked version of the album, Phoenix: La Petite Mort Édition, out February 26, 2021 on PAN. Originally conceived as a “sleep” mix for CRACK Magazine, Eartheater re-sculpted her entire album Phoenix into a seamless ambient edit.“This is Phoenix crushing, undressing, and compressing like carbon particles under the weight of boulders folded into silky soil, and decomposing. She is folding over and over and over and over like the rolls of young gummy stone. This is one REM cycle. I suggest listening to Phoenix: La Petite Mort Édition while asleep after climax. You are wet ash smudged across a pillow case.” - Eartheater
