Wilt extol the invisible corners of the thirsty earth with this exaltation of decay and reclamation. Best described as Noise Ambient, "Wither" is a aural quagmire of dusky vapors and ivy draped relics, grating erosions and the thorny shadows that rise and fall across dying landscapes. Moldering Dark Noise from this inspired American project.

KK NULL presents five new tracks of frenetic electronics and rhythmic experiments, ranging from cacophonous to an almost tribal atmosphere. Ever evolving within a sphere of obscure tension the details reveal themselves with a stalwart elegance. MOZ delivers 6 tracks of socially introspective Death Industrial and Dark Ambient. Drifting slabs contrast sharply with vitriolic sonics to render this misshapen pillar of sobering electronics.

This marked the only commercially available release for TORTURE CHAMBER who broke up shortly after its release. One member went on to form DEATHPILE. Their side features a monolithic wall of crushing Power Electronics & millitant social commentary recorded live. GRUNTSPLATTER made it's first appearance on this release showcasing a much more organic style than more recent works. Churning, dense walls of feedback, found sounds, vocal noise and occasional drum machine abuse flesh out their side. A dark and violent display from both projects to be sure. Good sound quality throughout.
