Rain of Ashes CD Available at Basses Frequences
Here's the description of the record from Fan Death Records:
If Locrian’s latest full length portrays decay and waste when you first see it, “Rain of Ashes” is the is the aftermath once you’ve had time to think about what you’ve just seen. Recorded with no overdubs and no other takes, Locrian went into WMUC studios located at College Park, Maryland to record what became much more than just a session. “Rain of Ashes” is a journey, not of complex feelings, but of realizing the decay and collapse you have just witnessed is real and will never go away. Instead of completely pummeling the listener, the piece slowly rips the listener apart until there is nothing left. Though after Locrian’s first full length “Drenched Lands”, you might have to ask yourself, “is there anything left to begin with in the first place?”
The cd is an edition of 400 and was mastered by Jason Ward at Chicago Mastering.

T. HANNUM - The Mount of All Lands 3" CD
NEW RELEASE:
T. Hannum
The Mount of All Lands
3" CD
Edition of 60
1. Ascend ( Approx: 10 mins)
2. Descend ( Approx: 10 mins)
Two vocal pieces recorded in 2008 finally released on 3" CD in a limited artists edition w/ artwork by SCOTT TRELEAVEN. T. Hannum is one half of LOCRIAN, normally behind a pile of keyboards and tapes, here only his voice is used. These tracks were edited into a soundtrack for the video installation "Back + Forth" in S. Treleaven's exhibition at Kavi Gupta Gallery in Chicago, IL that opens 10/31 (where LOCRIAN will perform their soundtrack to the video "7 Last Words). "Ascend" is the harsher of the two tracks, and introduces the theme of white noise and humming vocalizations while "Descend" grafts a cloudscape to the experience layering hazes of vocal tones. No instruments but voice were used on this recording. Full immersion.
$5ppd US / $6 ppd Intl.

Locrian Comp Tracks Available Now
We finished a remix of a Wilt track to celebrate their 10th year together playing. The 2xCD is available now from Ad Noiseam.
Wilt - Cemetary Road 2xCD from Ad Noiseam
Ad Noiseam Describes this release as:
A double CD celebrating Wilt's tenth anniversary, "Cemetery Road / Dead Electroniks" contains a new full length album by these veterans and central figures of the American's dark experimental scene and a homage CD, in which eleven remixers (from well known acts to newcomers) pay their tribute to the depth and innovation that paved Wilt's way so far. From a deep and touching combination of drones and acoustic sounds to a noisy and demanding new take at the past, Wilt's new opus is both a foundation stone and a beautiful festive statue.
We also have a track coming out on Fukk Tapes Lets Erase very soon. This compilation features some awesome musicians. Titled "Undergången - An Audio Companion To The End-Tymes" Edited by "Fukk tapes let's Erase" in an edition of 100 copies. This collection is more experimental and industial-driven with elements of power electronics. The collection contains 21 constellations. Which is:
The Moon Dogs, Frozen Faces, Death Domain, 0100000, Barrikad, Trepaneringsritualen, Enema Syringe, Jean-Louis Huhta, Sudden Infant, Altar Of Flies, Hetsjakt, Neghantil, Relics, Dead Letters Spell Out Dead Words, Cutiefuck, Monster Apparat, Violet & Janel, Lux Aeterna, Adolf Filter, The Skull Defekts and LOCRIAN.
