ELECTRIC OMEN - Abandon All Hope cassette (OFFER)

HEAVY WINGED - The Thinner The Air cassette
Blackest Rainbow - UK £5.50 / Europe £6.00 / USA & ROW £6.50
Very pleased to announce that after much ongoing talk between me and the band, Blackest Rainbow will be issuing the very first Heavy Winged cassette. A total beast from this cross country American trio of Ryan, Jed and Brady recorded just after a 4 day east coast tour in November 2007 at Ryan's house in Vermont. The music switches between pure heavy repetitive riffing, drum kit massacre and shredding bass to more melancholy weird minimal bits, which actually co-inside with the last jam the band did before parting ways across the map. Nevertheless, this is another totally amazing and essential release from one of my favourite bands around right now. Limited to 200. Pro-dubbed cassettes.
EMUUL - The Ghostwood Estates cassette
Blackest Rainbow - UK £5.50 / Europe £6.00 / USA & ROW £6.50
Emuul is the project of Kyle Iman, he sent me a double 3" CDR that was his first released recordings or demo if you will, I think there were something like 40 copies, barely any, and I gotta say that it was so good I asked to reissue it. Kyle's far out ambient electronic dream scapes were originally available in a nice little pouch, this reissue features new minimal j-card art by Kyle. Check out the review of the original self released edition over at Foxy Digitalis This is really a great release, I think Kyle will get some great releases out over the remainder of this year, so keep your eyes out! Pro-dubbed cassettes, limited to 80.
STEFAN KUSHIMA - Magnetic Levitation cassette
Blackest Rainbow - UK £5.50 / Europe £6.00 / USA & ROW £6.50
Stefan Kushima keeps bending our minds with his consistently awesome sounds that seem to be developing to a higher plain with each release... On this incredible 40 minute 6 track wonder, Stefan seems to pushed his trademark droning bliss of his previous two Blackest Rainbows to a more honed and zoned trance like state. Totally stellar and psychedelic. The closer features totally bizarre vocals/mutters/moans/crooning by Didi Bruckmayr... Full colour octopus artwork by Philipp Hanich. Pro-dubbed cassettes, limited to 80.
PINE SMOKE LODGE - Cranberry Horn cassette
Blackest Rainbow - UK £5.50 / Europe £5.75 / USA & ROW £6.25
Excellent new cassette from this eerie drone act from Portland, Maine that there seems to be very little information on. This four track 60 minute beast takes you one dark earthy drone excursions into bleak trip-outs of lord knows what. Very dark and mystical, and probably one of the most interesting drone acts i've heard in quite some time. Pro dubbed cassettes with stark black and white woodland cover art. Edition of 80.
ARCHERS BY THE SEA - Eagle Kiss cassette
Blackest Rainbow - UK £5.50 / Europe £6.00 / USA & ROW £6.50
New cassette from Vincent of "V" and The Pistol Cosmos, we previously released "V"s The Chanting Path a few years ago to some great reviews, so its a pleasure to be working with Vincent once again with this new project. Five untitled pieces opening with a mediative guitar meandering, leading into more powerful heavy distorted pieces and right back through to a superb final track of layered instrumentation with beautiful distant vocal flowing in and out of the hypnotic sounds laid across the almost 16 minute finale. Full colour covers, pro-dubbed and limited to 100.
