DLSODW Tape at OMG Vinyl

Link here.

---------------------------------

Land of Decay, the label owned and curated by none other than our Chicago metal brethren Locrian, has got a new cassette from Dead Letters Spell Out Dead Words available for ordering. This is beautiful, blissful drone music to sink into and fry your circuits on. Some might even call it “drone pop”. Did I just say “drone pop”? Fuck me. Anyways, if you don’t listen to tapes, then you need to be ordering the Locrian album from these guys (that’s on vinyl). If you do listen to tapes, you can get this plus the new Locrian album shipped to your door for $25. That’s money well spent, my friend. Visit the landofdecaycatalog.blogspot.com to figure out ordering details (hint: it involves Paypal).

"Falling Towers / After The Torchlight" Cassettee Available Now


We now have copies of these if you'd like to order. Please send:

$8.50 USA/$10.00 Rest of World @ postpaid

papyal to: landofdecay@gmail.com

Description from Label:

I'm very pleased to present this new release from Locrian, adding to their impressively solid discography. It sees them as a three-piece with the addition of Mr. Lemos, and a bit of a thickening up of their now trademark sound on these two tracks. Shards of guitar improv, blackened howls, buzzing electronics and a constant progression through many chilling and evil zones. Audio is played in reverse on b-side, for perfect sound symmetry. Silver ink on black with silver and blue glitter metallic paper. J-card is 7-panels. Edition of 200 copies on hi-bias chrome tapes. Click here for a full shot of the cover.

LOCRIAN "Falling Towers / After The Torchlight" cassette @ Aquarius Records


We don't have copies of this tape yet, but it's available at Aquarius and from Black Horizons. We do still have copies of "Territories," but it's running low.

LOCRIANFalling Towers / After The Torchlight(Black Horzions)
Latest jam from these atmospheric black metal drone ambient soundscapers. Now expanded to a trio, this epic two track workout finds the band sounding better than ever. Slow burning riffs churn relentlessly over a swirl of electronics and rumbling drones, vocals drift ghostlike throughout, melodies peal amidst the crumbling low end and heaving blackness, like some epic post doom, stripped of it drums and blurred into whirling shimmering riffscapes, haunting and otherworldly, abject and post industrial, pulsing and throbbing, gradually transforming from doomdrone to dreamdrift, but remaining heavy and mysterious.
The second track begins with a buzzing black riff, but instead of exploding into a blast of black fury, the riff seems to melt into the background, the various drones and tones bleeding into the riff, all smeared into a swirling black cloud of slow burning blackness, washed out and gauzy, growing more and more abstract, the riff pulled apart, the notes left to drift amidst a vast sea of wheezing chordal shimmer and crumbling glitched out electronics. So awesome. And if that wasn't enough, the flipside features a palindromic rendering of the two songs, the whole first side played in reverse, a warped woozy, swooping bit of twisted droned out black mystery.
Super sweet packaging, silver reflective sticker on the tape, seven panel, silver ink on black matte j-card. LIMITED TO 200 COPIES!

Update on Locrian c40 from Black Horizons:

2/2/10 update from Black Horizons:

2/2/10

Yeap, time for a new release. It is a C40 from Locrian, and it is one of the best tapes I've ever done. The Warmth - Privacy from God C52 was supposed to drop at the same
time, but due to it being a "printjob from hell" it is delayed until next week. In other comings up, the Tecumseh 10" is now a 12", and is at testpressing stage. Shortly.
Then will come an Anakrid LP and a Yellow Swans / Oakeater split LP. The Swans album that just dropped, that is not their last record. This one, given the way I
tend to release things, will be. It will also be worth the wait, especially since it is shared with Oakeater. Watch for all this come summer. I am on the move.

Thank you to everyone for their continued patience and support. This label means the world to me, and no, it is not dead. You will all know when it is.
