'Oldest recording here, 13 years!!!. DS Hastings man...what can you say? Well,...how about:

A: Fresh

B: Old School

C: Waaay Underground

IF you heard his totally obscure output on S.F.C.R in France or Square D recordings from Detroit all before 1995 then you know Hastings has his pulse on some raw, environmental, weirdo, static, fluxus style non-sound. Its like what Captain Crunch listens to before Tony The Tiger walks the plank into a boiling sea of washing-machine chewing sharks. Dude is a HUUGE influence from his like three releases. But you aint gonna see him around live anytime soon......underground..... SO: the record....some label...I forget who/what was gonna do an OG 7' Waaay black in 1995 between DS and DL Savings Time...it never saw light....UNTIL GNAW!!! Here is the original recordings and two new Collab tracks. This thing is as raw as chewing on a thirty foot tree with cement teeth while wearing a basement rug as a crotch-cloth. The DL Savings Time track for the 7

Drifting and subterranean noisez that attach on your brain and plant seeds of slow motion anti-body lurking sound creatures inside the shadowz of your skull.

'100 copies - a few months ago i caught a bee mask performance utilizing homemade light-sensitive electronics kept captive in little glass jars like one would try to catch a firefly or spider in. listening to this, i can't help but think it is the sound of his 'bug collection' left alone during sunset. layer upon layer upon layer of tone, slowly evolving but never dissipating.'---LABEL DESCRIPTION


'100 copies - first release recorded with his new (old) battleship of a synth. don't expect any calm, drone-like atmospheres here though as evenings starts slow but builds up to a thick & churning rumble. as if providing proof that he hasn't gone soft, this shudders and shakes like previous evenings outings.

Extremly disturbing POWER ELECTRONICS based on the mind of the Green River Killer.


'Fresh off his solo breakthrough LP on the legendary RRR label, Future With No Chance, Jason Crumer returns with Ottoman Black, an album of midnight drones and true noise. Using powerfully clear electronics as a base for declarative noise bursts, Crumer manipulates the sounds with a resounding animosity. In the vein of past Hospital releases from Pedestrian Deposit and Air Conditioning, Crumer yields his mean streak to an array of silences over the course of the album. The theme here is personal relations; tracks like 'Betrayal After Betrayal' have a conversational quality, both the screams and the muffles, the physicality. 'Where Were You' is an actionist-influenced piece of torture. There's nothing not painful here, especially the quiet; the peaks are almost a relief. Ottoman Black is a stern and unforgiving universe.'---LABEL DESCRIPTION


'What does a person do when faced with a work like Imperial Distortion? There are rare moments in an artist's work where they reveal a greater truth. Kevin Drumm has already made such a statement with his last major solo work, 2002's Sheer Hellish Miasma. Where that record took noise music to a new level of near-impenetrable exactitude, Imperial Distortion is an altogether different beast. Beauty as an aesthetic can be as terrifying as horror, desire unfulfilled, romance that lingers and never goes away, no matter how disappointing. A preoccupation with death can be the only result. On this extended long-form release, Kevin Drumm comes face to face with minimal drone music and confronts the genre by providing one of its absolute pinnacles at the forefront; movement. Drone music at its most concentrated and ably performed has build and depth in its tones. Although there might be the illusion of stasis, the opposite is true. From the opening 20-minute track 'Guillain-Barre,' the mood of the album is laid clear. The arrangements are shadowy layers of soundtrack-like tones not entirely unlike the work that Popul Vuh provided for Herzog's films. By track two, 'More Blood and Guts,' with its ominous bell tones, it becomes apparent that there is a true nothing that's associated with these sounds, other than the mood-inducing hypnosis and the feeling of drowning, yet having no ability to fight the slow pull. The middle portion of the record is 'Snow,' which was released as a limited cassette last year on Hospital Productions. This material was a teaser for the full album Imperial Distortion. The tracks have an almost ballad-esque sense of elegance, using tone and frequency as melodic portals to nowhere. The sustain in the piece suggests a weight while remaining alarmingly pleasant to the ears. The tension suggests an anxiety that never truly dies. The alarm comes from the juxtaposition of tones and mood. While the tones may sound gorgeous in their purity, the mood implies a profound sense of unease and perhaps an acceptance of the inevitability of existential dilemma. This point is most thoroughly evidenced by the albums closer, 'We All Get It In the End.' While the piece starts out with lullaby ease, a few minutes in, an equally severe dark drone eclipses the light and the night takes over. Here in the enveloped sounds, the clouds pass over the moonlight creating a spectral dark that is unforgettable in its intensity. To answer the initial question of Imperial Distortion, this is a work that commands intellectual and emotional commitment on the levels of the greatest works to come from this genre. Kevin Drumm has accomplished that rare balance to create a masterwork that no one has yet to come close to in this era. Your best bet is to surrender.'---LABEL DESCRIPTION


'the title perfectly sums up the ultimate dichotomy of thunder and scourge, fire and flood, iron and breast. cock and bat... the hammering continues... whoever dies with the most cums - wins. on this recording line up of roemer, stella, fernow. full color 2 sided pro print cover of classic transsexual art brut. '---LABEL DESCRIPTION


'the first full length of this heavily active live unit from providence, ri. there is no solid footing in shallow waters. only a suffocating hail of falling rock, strangling vines, and sinkholes. it is with rare exception that voice spits the last of breaths, the dying breaths, with such spite. like a rabbit trapped in the hole of the snakes throat, this duo comprised of members of immaculate:grotesque and em dath rir batter and tear there way through 6 tracks of power electronics eco-fallout and revolutionary anger. although there is not one moment of relief in this litany of rage shallow waters separates themselves from the pack by creating what an album and not just a collection of tracks with the focus of a sniper and the fury of napalm. get into the fight."---LABEL DESCRIPTION

Heavy drone work from this legendary weirdo. Synth drones and odd vocal chants recorded live in 2001. Edition of 323 copies on Red vinyl.
