    Bruta Non Calculant ‎– Instinct


    Bruta Non Calculant ‎– Instinct
    Label: Dark Vinyl Records ‎– DV62
    Format: CD, Album
    Country: Germany
    Released: May 2015
    Style: Experimental

    German minimal synthpop from members of Le Syndicat Electronique, with a message: “Instinct leads animals all their lives. It is the same process for humans until their death. Belief that humans are superior to animals is an error. A human kills and procreates for survival… without conscious! He speaks about his rights or his free will, but in truth, he is a slave of his heredity. The results of his millennium of ignorance are: misery, war and suffering on earth. The human strikes his own nature to survive. The only one to kill and eat… is ourself, our heredity, our ignorance: our own «pig” inside. And the old religion and its heavy laws will die, naturally. INSTINCT will give away to intuition… and the return to our tradition will be possible. These words are for “les hommes de bonne volonté!”. Comes in a 6-panel ecopak.

    Zos Kia / Coil ‎– Transparent




    Zos Kia / Coil ‎– Transparent

    Label: Cold Spring ‎– CSR230CD
    Format: CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered
    Country: UK
    Released: 09 Jan 2017
    Style: Industrial, Experimental

    ZOS KIA was formed by John Gosling (MEKON), John Balance (COIL) and Min – with guest Peter ‘Sleazy’ Christopherson (THROBBING GRISTLE). Their one and only album, Transparent, was released August 23rd 1983 in a cassette only edition on the now defunct Nekrophile label, Austria. They were the first released recordings of both COIL and ZOS KIA. It was reissued years later by COIL (Threshold House / Eskaton) in an edited edition. The entire recordings are now released on CD/vinyl for the first time and are completely remastered from the unedited tapes. Includes two previously unreleased bonus tracks by AKE (pre-ZOS KIA).

    The music on Transparent is genuinely unsettling and disturbing, with a more primal Industrial feel than the Coil album which followed; ‘Scatology’. An essential insight into the very early work of these extraordinary artists and an undeniable link between Coil and Throbbing Gristle.
    Double vinyl edition in a sumptuous gatefold sleeve with 12″ booklet of unseen images. Ltd 500 white vinyl edition for COLD SPRING mailorder only. Both editions come with download card.
    CD edition presented in a 6-panel digipak with booklet containing unseen images.
