Nochnoy Dozor – Nochnoy Dozor (Vinyl, 12″)
Label: Prophecy Productions – PRO251
Format: Vinyl, 12″, EP
Country: Germany
Released: 26 Oct 2018
Style:
Named after the Sergei Lukyanenko novel of the same name, Nochnoy Dozor (Translated: Night Watch) are relentless newcomers hailing from Greece. Founded in December of 2015, the group is now releasing its self-titled debut EP.
The music of Nochnoy Dozor embraces a variety of genres, with ambient soundscapes and pop flourishes clashing against heavy breaks and moments of harsh rock outbursts, all defined by the sophisticated interplay of synths and guitars. Dominating it all are the dual female vocalists that guide the listener through the music challenging the idea of how these vocalists can co-exist and play off each other; a feature that fully comes into its own in Nochnoy Dozor’s dynamic live show. Featuring Manos Georgakopoulos from Universe217 on guitar, Nochnoy Dozor pursue a gentler musical approach that flirts just as much with pop melodies as it does with atypical musical explorations.
With subtle, but never simplistic lyrics, and musicians subordinating themselves to the music’s atmosphere, Nochnoy Dozor understand that less is more. The band’s goal is to create catharsis for the listener, and an immersive sonic experience that delves deeper than their peers.

African Imperial Wizard – Nzinga Mbande (Vinyl, LP)
Label: Tesco Organisation – Tesco 153
Format: CD, Album, Limited Edition
Country: Germany
Released: 02 Dec 2022
Style: Experimental, Tribal, African, IDM, Darkwave, Neo-Classical, Folk, Abstract, Dark Ambient, Downtempo
“Nzinga Mbande” is the new album by the African Imperial Wizard collective. It is the soundtrack of the armed liberation from the imperialistic oppression that our continent has endured for far too long.
The “Nzinga Mbande” manifesto consists of eight martial symphonies. They all been have composed enduring pain and suffering and serve the purpose of giving our countries, which have been lacerated and battered by centuries of colonialism, the epic military ceremonies they deserve.
Our main goal with this new musical opus is to hand out orders to our troops and to maintain our military cohesion, the culmination of which will translate to Pan-Africanism and the profound intimidation of our enemies.
If you do not sense any danger coming, this could be the first sign of you losing your mind and if you listen carefully, you may already be able to hear the wailing of your dead haunting the battlefields devastated by our armed forces.
Because today more than ever, enough is enough. We won’t stop arming our warlords and their rebel battalions. We won’t stop arming our bloodthirsty mercenaries. We will continue to rely on our proud women warriors, who will follow in the footsteps of our ancestral queens Nzinga Mbande and Sarraounia and will reduce to ashes all those who dare show them and their devastating bastions any resistance. Make no mistake, we will not hesitate to resort to rearming our children. Our child soldiers helped us before, and they will do so again without a moment’s hesitation in the face of what we have had to put up with. We would rather see them die by our side in excruciating pain than letting them fall to your Machiavellian enslaving doctrines.
Nothing has been forgotten of the painful wounds that colonisation inflicted upon Africa. We counted every hand you cut off, every rape, every slave raid, every looting, every torture session, every poisoned watering hole, every crime, every assassination, every mass murder, every massacre, every genocide, every mass grave and every hour of forced labour which you imposed on us. Mark our words: our dead have slowly but surely been counted.
The toll is outrageous, and the abominable numbers speak for themselves and the horror we have been through. But believe us, we are more determined than ever and, may our gods be our witnesses, our vengeance will be all the bloodier. Barbaric invaders, look around you, we are already here, ready to draw our old Kalashnikovs and don’t worry, they do still work, and we can assure you they won’t jam.
Finally, African Imperial Wizard will come to play their most glorious laments in your cemeteries. Our sorcerers will make sacrifices on your graves to the memory of Soundiata. We will glorify the spirits of our great forefathers who fell in battle. The same fate awaits you.
Let the slaughter begin
La Merde – La Vie En Noir
Label: Lichterklang – LK049
Format: CD, Album, Limited Edition
Country: Germany
Released: 30 Nov 2021
Style: Neofolk
Hailing from Belgium, LA MERDE have been blending classic neofolk with industrial electronics since 2018. LA MERDE combines fact and fiction in an anachronistic collage of the past into a contemporary creation of sound and image. They are storytellers in an abstract sense, conjuring an aural vision, both real and imagined, of our past, present, and future. By wielding a DIY ethos and using a wide range of instruments, they’ve created a sound that is both formed from soil yet otherworldly.
With tragedy and misery as the guiding principle, LA MERDE guide you through the eternal collapse of the world. As of 2021, they’ve released sought-after tapes and joined the stage with the esteemed likes of Rome, Awen, and By The Spirits. And now arrives La Vie en Noir, LA MERDE’s debut full-length. Both consolidating and eclipsing those prized short-length predecessors, La Vie en Noir lays bare a sumptuous soundscape that spans autumnal splendor and simmering tension, bitter repose and stifled violence. Each of the 43-minute album’s dozen songs offers its own unique snapshot, and the duo thread all of it together with unified purpose and poignant dynamics. In short, it’s everything – and more – a long-form LA MERDE recording has promised to be, brimming with a dark gorgeousness that’s engrossing to the very end.
LA MERDE begin their Thelemic march with La Vie en Noir – love under will, and love is the law!
Valborg – Nekrodepression (Vinyl, LP)
Label: Total Dissonance Worship – TDW048
Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Red Opaque
Country: US
Released: Jun 2022
Style: Black Metal, Experimental
Re-release of the 2012 Nekrodepression record, red opaque vinyl in matte varnish jacket. Remastered for vinyl, limited to 150 copies.
Nekrodepression’ is the band’s undeniable breakthrough album and delivers an absolutely primal mix of blackened Doom and Thrash.
The mostly German lyrics and signature bellow of Christian Kolf’s vocals only add to the harsh and brute nature of this material.
But those who dedicate their time to crack Valborg’s hard and discordant shell will undoubtedly get hooked on the band’s raw, yet anthemic climaxes.
For its 10th anniversary, ‘Nekrodepression’ has been completely remastered and is presented with a fresh take on the original art, which is now more in line with the band’s iconic aesthetic.
For fans of: Eisenvater, Celtic Frost, Type O Negative

Statement from Ataraxia:
Suenos
2001-2021
“Which were the dreams that, twenty years ago, brought us here and now? Which ones, those that, in twenty years in the future, will have drawn our present now and here? PARTI DE MAL, far from evil, a choral and decisive NO towards forces that keep us away from our dreams, then, to exorcise this time, we let ourselves free to dance a pagan dance called SADERALADON.
We are in the presence of BELLE JOLANDE, quintessence of Venus, Goddess of harmony and love that we honor until we find ourselves catapulted to card 1 of the tarots, IL BAGATTO, the one who has all the tools to “start” a work but he’s not moving yet.
We enter the second phase of the dream and journey, we get into the deep unconscious, the lucid dream, the feminine, the welcoming water.
MON AME SORCIERE, right now the soul begins creating, she becomes a witch, a prophetess and initiates her subtle action through portal 11, ELEVEN, the number of the door in deep contact with memory, MNEMOSINE, Titaness-Goddess of memories who leads us to get in touch with all what is waving, I LOVE EVERY WAVING THING.
We access the third phase, the masculine, the action of fire. Through sandy dunes, we reach a crossroad, ENCRUCIJADA, where does the dream lead us? To abandon all what is no longer useful, the burden of what denatures us physically, emotionally and spiritually (FUNERAL IN DATCA), we give it a worthy burial in order to access a sparkling, multicolored treasure (THE CORALS OF AQABA) allowing us to ascend to Mount Nemrut (NEMRUT DAGI) where we put the crown on our head, the return of the inner King, the quintessence, in dignity, beauty and love.
IN AMOR, the fourth step, in love and for love.
Lost love for the ones who did not have the courage to live it, to devote themselves to it, to open their own hearts as in the song CLYTAEMESTRA; and the glorious love embodied by MELISANDA, protagonist of the alchemical wedding, an iridescent soul dancing a round dance that rejoins the one of SADERALADON in a spiral that rises by an octave.
We had the ardor to dream and the dream came true.
The dream is all what has been, is and will be as time is only a dimension of space and each space travels parallel to another in a multidimensional matrix where everything is possible if we sing it.
Dernière Volonté – Commémoration
Label: Hau Ruck! – HR!67
Format: 2 × CD, Compilation, Reissue, Remastered, Digifile
Country: Austria
Released: 2018
Style: Modern Classical, Industrial, Neofolk
Commemoration brings together my work from 1998 to 2003, 5 years when, as you will see, I recorded a lot. Minimalist, factual, often dark and very pessimistic, that’s how I conceived Derniere Volonteat that moment. My equipment was very rudimentary, my texts quickly written on crumpled books, all recorded often in one or two days. It was perhaps the moment, that I was the most productive and also, by anger, the most inventive. A few years ago I started to think of a new edition of Commemoration, a review of those years of ‘iron and lead’, the testament of my ‘anti light’. This is Commemoration in its new edition. Good listening. Geoffroy Delacroix October 2018

Boyd began his exploration of noise in the mid ’70s with the aid of a tape recorder and various loops of girl groups, turning pop into a continuous drone. This first collection, known as «The Black Album» was made toward the end of 1975 self-released in 1977 and later re-released as «Boyd Rice» by Mute in 1981. Boyd met Daniel Miller (head of Mute Records) at his first gig in the UK, where he played alongside with Throbbing Gristle, and was among the first artists to be signed on Mute. He is also known for his 7″ with treated noise loop grooves, which can be played at every speed and also off-center with extra drilled holes. The first of them, «Knife Ladder», was also his first release as NON. Boyd Rice also releases records with his own name and as Boyd Rice And Friends (with different guests), he does spoken words under the moniker The Boyd Rice Experience and a cover band of 60s’ pop songs with the name Spell (with Rose McDowall). Various appearances on works of Blood Axis, Current 93, Death In June and others.
Der Blutharsch is the main project of Austrian musician Albin Julius. Following in the footsteps of Autopsia and Laibach, Julius creates a marching music of bombastic rhythms and folkish melodies, often infused with historical military speeches and orchestral samples. The earlier works tended towards a minimalistic sample-based instrumental style in an industrial/ambient vein, while more recent material has headed into a folk/acoustic sound, often accompanied with live vocals and instruments.
Der Blutharsch’s first release was a self-titled picture LP released in late 1996 on the Arthur’s Round Table label, but the project didn’t became Julius’ main musical outlet until 1998 after the break-up of his previous band The Moon Lay Hidden Beneath A Cloud. The first CD album «Der Sieg des Lichtes Ist des Lebens Heil» was released that year, followed by a series of limited EP’s, before the release of the masterpiece «The Pleasures Received In Pain» in 1999.
Almost all of the bands releases are through Julius’ personal austrian-based label «WKN» («Wir Kapitulieren Niemals»), which was distributed by World Serpent UK until 2000, when it switched to Tesco Distribution in Germany. Since 2001 various musicians have acted as part of the band, but Albin Julius currently claims Der Blutharsch to have four permanent members: Marthynna, Jörg B. (of Graumadh), Bain Wolfkind (of Novo Homo) and himself.
The band officially disbanded in 2010, but was newly founded as Der Blutharsch And The Infinite Church Of The Leading Hand in the same year
