Flatline Skyline - Horizon Grid

Hum of the Druid - Wall of Arms
37 minute debut full-length from 2004 in a more pronounced dark ambient vein. Guitar tones are stretched into smooth spacial drones while textured grit and higher-end revelations are provided through analog electronics. Ancient undercurrents with modern attachments...

Orthrelm/Behold...the Arctopus - Split EP
This CDEP features a new, exclusive song each from New York tech/prog metal wizards BEHOLD...THE ARCTOPUS and shred meltdown duo ORTHRELM, overdosing the listener on spastic complexity and insane instrumental prowess that will liquify your grey matter. Adorned in eye-blazing original artwork from VOIVOD's Away. DECIBEL Magazine said "...Both Behold the Arctopus and Orthrelm stake their reputations on disciplined improvisation, but the work itself necessitates auto-destructive imperatives. Their elusive, dizzying sound evokes Zorns work with Painkiller and Masada and is equally reminiscent of Coltranes abandonment first of bebop, then the matrix he developed with Giant Steps before venturing outward into the spiritual impossibilities of modal jazz. Beholds PAINcave begins a dialogue between guitar and drums that culminates in a regurgitation of whats just been digested. Unlike Orthrelm, their use of viscous sounds lubricates and combusts, taking a circuitous route through dialogical syncopation, call and response, and load noise intensity. Like Zorns work, its moody and agitated, at once brooding and decisive, storming and wailing with purpose between chromatic tantrums. Conversely, Orthrelms Pithot 1 abbreviates their 2005 ode to concentration, OV. A series of profound declensions and cartoonish riffs, it scrawls a Mike Patton caricature, then burns it in effigy. As much a song as a trigonometry lesson, Orthrelms guitars and drums chase a parabolic rollercoaster, cascading down asymptotic peaks with fearless elegance. Orthrelm draw a smiley face on repetition, the hallmark of nightmare logic allowing cat and mouse to lose meaning only to become a chicken or egg proposition in which the cats left chasing its tail. Each generation is more distorted, violent, and funny: as Tweety is to Sylvester and as Tom is to Jerry is to Itchy is to Scratchy ad infinitum; or as Whos Afraid of Virginia Woolf? playwright Edward Albee once put it, Good, better, best, bested.

Scald - Headworm
Accursed and painfully long-awaited, sunless dawn of the new hexical coming, casting upon the black masses, nine self-released, unholy invocations of the spirits of avant garde, doom-encumbered, grey matter crushing, prog-grind...a full albums worth of cerebrally apocalyptic hymns of discordance at seemingly eternal war with harmony.
Price: $8

VA - Drone Season II
The sequel to Brise-Cul's first KVLT drone compilation featuring more diverse sounds, louder tracks and more punch to your speakers! This new comp feature the skull-crushing sounds of Germany's Datashock, the dark industrial vibes of Seattle's Conversations About the Light (CATL), the digital sounds of UK's Dead Wood, the synth driven loudness of my Montreal neighbours Grkzgl, the sick minimalism of our very favourite texans Rotten Piece, the loud sounds of UK's veterans Cheapmachines, the droney field recordings of Missouri's Mystified and the heavy drone jam of Texas' Skillful Means. So here's the fine selection we made from the mountain of submissions we had to drive you into a loud KVLT journey!!!
