Hello once again everyone,
time for a long-due update our recent releases!
Just before Xmas we’ve put out
LUST FOR YOUTH - Saluting Rome EP (AV!023)
Hannes Norrvide’s LFY doesn’t need any further introduction. The post-industrial synth-pop project was born in Goteborg, Sweden, a few years ago, joined by Amanda Eriksson. When she left, our man moved to Malmö setting LFY as his solo project. Within this solitary passage Growing Seeds was written, the second amazing album which has just been repressed in the US by Sacred Bones. Meanwhile the boy moved again, ending up in Copenhagen, where the Iceage/Vår/Posh Isolation thing is happening. So it was more than natural for Hannes to join those guys and for such a main character as Loke Rahbek to become the new LFY soldier. Saluting Rome is their latest recording as a duo. Originally released by Posh Isolation as a tour tape, the EP has now got its actual chance to make it on vinyl. I don’t really have to tell you much about the music here: you know you will find simple yet killer synth melodies, clockwork drum machines beats, youthful lyrics for underground ice-cold anthems. The record has been mastered specifically for vinyl by Viktor Ottosson (Street Drinkers, Blodvite, Niding) and comes on grey 12-inch cut at 45 RPM for the best analog sound possible. The tracklist is also different from the tape edition and features the totally unreleased track First Touch. Five more songs by one of our favorite bands going on out there in the cold North of Europe that will help us make it through the upcoming frosty months.

HOW MUCH WOOD WOULD A WOODCHUCK CHUCK IF A WOODCHUCK COULD CHUCK WOOD? - s/t LP (AV!022)
Trio from Turin, Italy consisting of Gher, Coccolo and Iside. They play guitars, bass, tapes and reverbs and throw in some voices. They love wood stumps, that’s where the name came from. Now I know you’re thinking it’s a funny name but believe me when I say it makes perfectly sense, in sort of weird, creepy way. Their music is pitch black layers of drones and male vocals with crystalline guitar arpeggios and otherworldly female vocals hovering in the acoustic space. Something dwelling among the most experimental peaks reached by Coil, Current 93 and Death In June. They have self-released few CDRs and one spilt 7” with Father Murphy in recent times on Boring Machines and Avant! Records. The self-titled debut LP (out on Avant! and Boring Machines again) is composed of six new tracks, the music is slow, distorted, rich in reverbs and low frequencies, suggesting deep and dark landscapes. It’s surely devilish and unsettling at first, but the melodies hidden in the drones tangle are peaceful and refreshing. Comes in total black look, thick cardboard jackets and printed inner sleeve.
