Tri Angle Records is very excited to announce the release of The Haxan Cloak’s eagerly awaited second album Excavation, to be released in Europe on April 15 on CD and LP formats.
In 2011 with the release of his debut, self titled album, The Haxan Cloak, solo project of multi instrumentalist, Bobby Krlic, appeared seemingly out of nowhere with an impressively fully formed sound that blew away most anyone who heard it. Recorded over the space of 3 yearsThe Haxan Cloak was a wildly ambitious fusion of malevolent strings, junkyard found-sounds and primitive percussion, Krlic’s grand ambitions transcending the fact that it was all recorded in a shed at the bottom of Krlic’s parent’s home in Wakefield, Yorkshire. In the two years since the release of his debut, Krlic relocated to London and began working on it’s epic follow up, and Tri Angle Records debut;Excavation
Bolstered by the concept he was developing for his follow up and a desire to challenge himself into new terrains, Krlic has evolved his sound to incorporate more of his electronic influences. The result is an album awash with serrated beats and cavernous sub-bass, meshing with the classical drones and ghostly details The Haxan Cloak fans will have already been accustomed to.Excavation finds Krlic confidently adopting a more minimalist approach to his compositions, experimenting with space and silence without forsaking any of the intensity that made his debut such a powerful statement of intent.
If The Haxan Cloak was conceived as the soundtrack to a character’s journey towards death,Excavation is its sequel representing the journey after death. Excavation is about disconnecting entirely from this and entering upon a more astral plane, explaining some of the albums more ethereal, ambient moments that are in constant tension with jagged and aggressive elements. This journey isn’t supposed to represent an archetypal Heaven or Hell scenario, but something more abstract and unknowable; the abstraction of the situation being one of its most unsettling aspects.Excavation is another uncompromising, incredibly personal record from an artist who is continuing to operate very much within his own world.

Collection of material from 1978-1982 from one of the industrial world's most interesting groups.
Although Controlled Bleeding has been and always will be lumped into the genre of old school industrial music, their earliest inspirations were steeped in the first wave of New York City punk bands like The Dictators, Dead Boys, the Ramones and the brooding technical brilliance of King Crimson, Mahavishnu Orchestra and Henry Cow.
This collection of music from the early formations of the group, infused with the hunger and intensity of youth, clearly illustrates the collision of these seemingly opposing influences.
Recordings from 1978-1982, assembled by main man Paul Lemos capture the different early eras of Controlled Bleeding. An incredible peak back into the early days of "anything goes" alternative music.
A ride through history, from America to Russia, John F. Kennedy, and Marilyn Monroe until Steve Jobs: the time, destiny and history, life and death, war and peace, destruction and rebuilding, crime and victims, a series of links to different realities… this is the first explosive new album of CHEMICAL WAVES!!!
Anticipated by the release of four singles, "The Origin", "Murders TV", "Sweet candy bullets" and "The Great Dictator, with related video clips available on youtube, now comes the new full-length album released by Afmusic!

All songs use some samples that replace the vocals line.

Black is the sanctuary of light.
What follows when you leave space behind? When you move into worlds beyond time and space? When quantum mechanics made it possible to venture into seemingly strange dimensions?
In 2013, PROJECT PITCHFORK dwell on these questions and answer them already with the title of their newest album “BLACK” without losing themselves in the process: “In the emptiness of space, the biggest of all suns could shine right behind you but your eye would only behold utter darkness” - and with “BLACK”, PROJECT PITCHFORK enlighten these hidden worlds of our reality.
