BIOS WRECK is a new Contort Yourself side label! Think of it as CY's unstable sibling, dealing in awkward genres and short runs....ya ken?

For our inaugural release we voraciously present a dusty tape featuring Contort Yourself label boss (and also one half of post punk duo Women's Hour) Murray CY and his misadventures with some quasi electronic not quite post punk under the dubious guise, Model Stress.


"with a mumble and a fumble, communication is the key to model stress, but sadly the key is stuck in the lock.

listen as he takes the smallest of issues and turns them into huge pantheons of insignificance.

hearing is not believing my friends and believing spelled backwards is gniveileb which contains the veil that hides a thousand ancient secrets, and one mundane one which most people actually know.

tears...

but the show must not go on, and so it does..."

The sixth compilation of mutated machine music centres around British industrial pioneers Nocturnal Emissions. The group hack out two thick cuts of oil soaked savagery. Gears crunch and chains clatter as drum machines are minced and mangled for Demon Circuits Bloodbath before the reduced and removed bitterness of Even the Good Times are Bad. L.I.E.S. main man Ron Morelli under the guise of U-202 takes on the static of the '83 original, lonesome rhythms fired into a gaping hollow of echo and decay. There is brief respite, very brief, coming in the haunted strings of Penelope's Fiance. Torrent grinds this short break into dust with EXE 2 Blueprint, a sludge stomper drowned in distortion and dripping with distress. Innsyter (L.A. Club Resource), aka Seixlack, calls time with the hazy house bottle smasher; think fog machines and bodies in the dark and you're getting close.

But Darling, It's Hideous EP

CY006 - B2 - Nocturnal Emissions - Even the Good Times are Bad (1983) (OUT NOW)

Contort Yourself is extremely proud to present a double LP of original 80s underground cassette music.

The 1980s. Neo-liberal excess. Crumbling communism. Military juntas ruling with an iron fist. And of course, freaked out music. Contort Yourself are turning back the clock and returning to an unholy fount of inspiration with "80s Underground Cassette Culture Volume 1." A buffet of beaten up and brutalised tracks are on offer from unknown outfits and respected experimenters. Across two LPs expect to find noise reductions, post punk bitterness, no wave grunts, distortion soaked strings and vocals lost in a hail of pain. A road map into the weird and wild world of DIY back alley artists who, armed with only a tape and an idea, gave the established music norms a sharp fist to the throat.

B1 - Giant Swan - Dare
B2 - Hunting Lodge - De Omnibus Dubitandum (Gotshell Remix)

"Contort Yourself continues to explore the crossover between decrepit 80s industrial and the modern artists drawing inspiration from those heady, experimental times, and the results are as thrilling as ever. Haydee's "No Gouvernance" is a brutal charge of drums and distorted yelps, while 1983 jam "De Omnibus Dubitandum" by Hunting Lodge fuses layers of distortion and proto acid with live bass and brittle drums. Catriel lays out a sinister but seductive message on "Nbdymksmefeellowlikeudo", Giant Swan bring their raucous avant-techno styles to "Dare" and then Gotshell remix Hunting Lodge into a thunderous industrial techno charge." - JUNO

CY is kicking off a new series of 12"s focusing exclusively on contemporary artists with some wild experimental industrial muzak from Portuguese duo Coletivo Vandalismo!

Coletivo Vandalismo - Urubus Fall From The Dying Sun In An Improvised Manner EP

A1 - The (Black) Sun's Burning (feat. Neonthroat)
A2 - Hostages of Society
A3 - Zombie Zombie

B1 - Are You Awake?
B2 - Children of the Curse
B3 - Black Sun's Demise

"Having built its name on various artist releases featuring old and new artists, Contort Yourself is branching out with a new series that focuses on one contemporary act per release. In this instance it's Coletivo Vandalismo getting some much-deserved attention. The Portuguese industrial punk outfit have a visceral sound that favours noise and distortion, but most importantly they know how to wield these sonic tools for maximum impact. The snarl of the synths and the crunch of the drums on "Hostages Of Society" could easily be too much in the wrong hands, but here the errant tones find their own space in the mix, making the impact of the track all the more on-point." - JUNO
