Violeer – Fairgrounds (Self-Released)
Label Description:
i began recording fairgrounds in january of 2024 in an attempt to capture the intensity of our recent string of live shows throughout central ohio…as violeer had always been a project that i had shared with my husband since its inception…
however…throughout the spring and early summer of 2024 our creative and romantic partnership slowly eroded and the release evolved into something else…a dark meditation on loss, addiction, mental illness and the quiet rage that follows when everything that was once familiar is no longer…when forever becomes finite…
recorded in columbus ohio
january through may 2024
no coast
no sea
no eloquence of hope

Kevin Drumm – Constriction (Self-Released)
Yellow Swans – Out Of Practice I (Self-Released)
Label Description:
Getting back to playing was a whole thing. Neither of us had been playing much music and weren’t sure how we’d get back to it since we live pretty far apart and had opted in to playing shows. We always leaned on improvisation in our sets and our last few years were entirely improvisational, so we decided we’d create a few frameworks for playing our live gigs to give us something to lean on. In a sense, “songs” but VERRRRY loose. So here’s a tape documenting two very different versions of one of those pieces, which was based around some vague ideas and tape loops of early music fragments. We are old now, history and we wanted to play with history. L O L. Anyway, I think the music is pretty good. Not bad for a band that hasn’t recorded anything or played out in 15 years.

Ulvtharm – 7 Uthras (Cyclic Law)
Label Description: Second opus from MZ 412 co-founder Jouni Ollila. Ulvtharm is painting his world as a sprawling, post-apocalyptic industrial wasteland, where humanity clings to survival in the shadows of monolithic factories and decaying cities. Skies choked with ash, and a sun that seldom breaks through the omnipresent smog. Within this landscape, the Seven Uthras exist not as beings of benevolence, but as ancient, god-like entities that emanate from the darkest depths of the earth, commanding forces beyond human comprehension. 7Uthras serves as a sonic gateway to otherworldly realms, offering a glimpse into the abyss that challenges and expands the listener’s perception of the known universe. Ulvtharm masterfully blends the essence of dark industrial soundscapes with layers of mystical ambiance, creating an immersive experience that is both deeply unsettling and profoundly enlightening. This new album is not just an exploration of sound but a journey into the soul of its creator, exploring the chaos and darkness within his imagination. Ulvtharm’s deeper vocal experimentations are weaving a narrative that is both personal and universal. The album’s blend of dark, martial, pulsating rhythms and ambient organic soundscapes invites us to confront the death and ruins of our world. As each track unfolds, we will be drawn deeper into a narrative of chaos and transformation, where the end of one world signifies the birth of another. 7UTHRAS is not just an album; it is a ritualistic journey that seeks to unlock the ancient doors of perception and embrace the darkness as a path to enlightenment. All hail the Serpents, all hail the Seven Uthras!
Yellow Swans – Left Behind (Yellow Swans Archive)
Label Description: Welp, this isn’t NEW new, but it’s NEW to you. We had a few things set aside for a few things after we broke up in 2008.. there was maybe a one sided LP that we did some versions of, and there were two “benefit” things we had cobbled together for a few buddies around that time. If I remember correctly Nick demolished his knee skating and didn’t have insurance.. and Joe got all of his sick gear stolen out of his car while he was on tour. NOT COOL. but those problems got solved a few different ways so the comps never had to come out, and the files got lost in the sauce of each of our own manifestation of post-YS chaos. We forgot they existed. So we started digging in to things while we were working on our archival project in 2019-2020, and these files, along with a few others, were dug up and we were faced with a bit of a conundrum… the idea to release these tracks got a few wrenches tossed in since we didn’t catch for a few months that one of the tracks was basically a third version of a track from Being There and Going Places. That version’s not on here.
So yeah, we’ve been batting around ideas for this stuff for a bit, tossed around some edits.. MULLED a whole lot.. and here we go. a nice little c30 recorded in our practice space in the basement of Rotture in 2007-8. There’s a whole lot of huff and puff going on here that didn’t really fit into Drowner or those other guys we recorded around the same time. Vibe is heavy, at times almost metal or completely garbagey anemic beats. IDK. Some good stuff in here. So, not NEW new, but hopefully some NEW NEW tapes soon…
Hey UK/EU fans, you can pick this thing up via Boomkat either now or very, very soon.
