BIZARRE X - live at zoro, leipzig 19.03.2011 cassette 4,00 €

"3 or 4 years after the start of BIZARRE X we met the guys from PYOSALPINX at the ZORO in leipzig. 
the vocalist was named Bjoern and he was an expert in noise. BIZARRE X and PYSALPINX played some shows together and shared an 7"ep 
that was released at SCROTUM RECORDS back in the 90s. PYOSALPINX quit it a bit later, 
but I and Bjoern were still in contact and we supported each other in one or another way. 
so i´m really happy that I meet Bjoern last year at the ZORO (the place where our friendship starts) 
where we played with ENTRAILS MASSACRE, AGATHOCLES and some other bands. 
after the show we were hanging around and Bjoern came up with the idea to release a tape from the show. 
for me this tape shows a story of friendship and support that last for 17 years now! 
the tape was planned to called "old love don´t rust" in the beginning and i think this would be a good name...haha.enjoy the NOISE"

GRIZZLY IMPLODED - A self-throwing man into his own never busting bubble cassette 4,50 €
 


Francesco Gregoretti and Maurizio Argenziano, who are the core of Strongly Imploded and Oddly Imploded, have freed guitarist Sergio Albano from the chains, to give life to Grizzly Imploded. Grizzly Imploded plays improvised music with traditional rock instrumentation of  two guitars and drums
and is engaged in sound research that results in a wild assortment of sonic events as a point of contact
between the unrepeatability of performative acts, the intensity of noise music and an over-rhythmical,
experimental attitude. Tone is, by and large, definitely dramatic and oppressive, reaching high levels of emotional tension. A self-throwing man into his own never bursting bubble: He had put himself in deep trouble, the bubble had the man inside, felt the man throwing himself about and wanted to get him the fuck out,
perhaps because he had not arrived.
edition of 30 cassettes

STABAT MORS / RICHARD RAMIREZ - hideous bliss split lp 10,-€                                                                                                

Christian Koehler was the motivating mind behind the project,  Stabat Mors. 
Fusing thematic concepts and philosophical ideas based on Althusser,  Mishima,  Derrida, 
Artaud and Cioran,  the accompanying noise is a confrontation with distorted accordian,  metal, 
piano  and microphone to tube;  a farewell release that is a sharp feedback orgy and celebration of despair.

"Hegels Tod" is the first track: a solo recording from 2006. 
Very isolated,  sad and extreme, the mix is an infusion of trying to bind the theme of death into sound. 
It was the last track recorded before he died the same year.
The second piece is a documentation of Stabat Mors' first live show at the Neues Museum Bremen in 2004, 
featured here as a trio. Etuede 2 & 3 of "Bild und Tod nach Derrida" is a mixture of lecture and noise-cacophonia.

Richard Ramirez appears on the other side of the LP with long track recorded in 2006. 
"Error Strike" is a barrage of dynamic,  crushing noise;  an enduring wall that spans twenty minutes!

This lp is pro-pressed in a full-colored record jacket with paintings by Christian Koehler. 
Additionally,  the album comes with a huge insert featuring the text,  to "Bild und Tod nach Derrida".

The lp is the memorial to Christian.
It is sad that he will never see the final result
