With their much praised album ‘Iscariot Blues’ (2012) and it’s acoustic successor ‘The Myrrh Sessions’ (2013), the Swiss band achieved to consolidate their status and both albums catapulted the Swiss band to the top of the Gothic Wave scene. Their rise is documented in an impressive list of gigs at home and abroad. ‘Ghost Prayers’ is the project’s eagerly awaited 6h album.
It’s an ode to melancholia, full of deep passion and fervour, ‘Ghost Prayers’ is the project’s eagerly awaited sixth album. It’s an ode to melancholia, full of deep passion and fervour, ready the (digital) single ‘Mariannah’ was a massive success and with ‘Ghost Prayers’ The Beauty of Gemina lives the border crossing between dull gloom and wise optimism that left its mark on the whole album! ‘Ghost Prayer’ is nothing less than a brilliant Gothic/Wave/Folk-album! Coming in digipak with 20 page booklet!
Oklahoma based solo project "Pittersplatter" has come a long way since its inception in 2003. We followed this group back on Myspace, when it was a Rhythmic Noise act, right through to the current period, focusing on Old-school Electronics, with a very strong and resonant horror theme to it.
In this universe, the masks aren't just for fun - Pittersplatter is the creation of Worm Splatter - front man and sole studio member of the project. Styled as Electronic Nightmare Music (not through choice, but for true lack of a suitable tag), Pittersplatter find themselves sandwiched closest to Industrial - but with more than a few nods to acts such as Xorcist, Mortiis and Front 242.
"Frozen" will be a familiar release to a fair few of you. Originally released in October 2012, we picked up the demo Jewel case run as part of our complicated 3-part arrangement between ourselves (as management), the artist, and the original label. We sold the original run out in almost no time at all, and since Pittersplatter has been handed over exclusively to us, we wanted to bring this often-asked about release back into circulation - with several improvements.
"Frozen : Reign of the Warlock" is, as the title suggests, an evolution. First and foremost, the extended title gives this album the true conceptual approach it always aimed to convey.
This version is both redesigned, and remastered. Expect colder and more prevalent sounds than before - everything has been amplified and adjusted, courtesy of one of our two talented engineers, giving "Frozen" a completely new approach.
Brand new artwork, improving and developing the occultic theme.
Two previously unavailable (on CD) tracks, both released by us digitally, but now either unavailable or facing deletion.
"Frozen" is one of the coldest and darkest albums out there - tracks documenting real life horror stories, effects and guest vocals that deliver a serious chill - We've recently had an extended "Sun" - now it's time for an eternal Winter.
"Frozen" comes in a beautiful 4 panel digipak, and is limited to strictly 100 copies. Releases 28th February 2014.

Voted as one of the top 5 albums of 2013 by various zines, "Life" first came to our attention last summer with the previous label generating a very limited CD run that sold out - and sold out FAST. A recent cassette edition by Ritual Tapes also flew off the shelves in a manner of days - and one of the big questions asked often to Mr.Kitty is "Will we ever get another shot to get this on CD?" Being "Can-do" people, our answer was a resounding "Yes". Not only have we agreed to re-release this modern classic - we've gone one better and added TWO new tracks, both exclusive to this release. "Hurt" is a brand new track - closing this chapter of Mr. Kitty's career. "Insects" - a firm album favourite, gets remixed by our own Synthpop/ New Wave project "IIOIOIOII" - who tunes into the true essence of the song and gives it a seriously dark, "Witchy" sound. We think this final, deluxe, definitive version of "Life" will make all fans and supporters ecstatic - and there's countless reasons why. Mr.Kitty is an act that deserves to be worldwide and this is his time. Comes in 4-panel Digipak. Releases 28th March.
John Lindqwister (Cat Rapes Dog, Basswood Dollies) and Richard Flow (Vision Talk, Haze For Sale) return to the music business with a collaboration under the name of 'Machinista'. Sweden is somewhat of a serious machine in the Synthpop world right now, and our latest revelation are seeking to capitalise on this - and take a few scalps in the meantime. Having recently supported Swedish darling Henric De La Cour, and embarking on the first of many UK shows in March, we are proud to unveil the debut release by the duo : "Arizona Lights". Loosely themed around the extra-terrestrial, the package hints at the concept of UFOs and Abductions - but doesn't deter too much from the task at hand. "Arizona Lights" is very much a teaser EP, with four original tracks designed to introduce Machinista, and give but a brief glimpse of what this duo really can do. Remixes from four of our most talented artists, and Swedish synth-wave project "Not Lars" make up the 10 tracks on offer here - and, rather unlike anything we've done before, you even get a rare Acoustic version of a Machinista classic. Releasing on March 7th (2 days before the integral London show), this Digipak release is extremely limited, and is certain to sell extremely quickly.
JUG008 : Ira-K Organisation - Parasite "Delete your mind, Delete your existence. We do NOT promote Racism, Fascism, or any kind of hatred or intolerance. We exist to make you think about our history - to prevent the past from repeating itself." Already set to give fellow Italian noise-mongers Alien Vampires and WormZ a run for their money, Ira-K Organisation is Ira - a native of Catania. Perhaps one of the closest "Industrial" bands under our banner, this solo project is a fusion of Hard Industrial, Rhythmic Noise, and Techno. C-Lekktor, Hypnoskull, Alien Vampires, Phosgore. Blend the four names into an elixir; remove the cap, and inhale deeply. The result will be an overwhelming sensation - the philosophy of Ira-K Organisation. Coming directly from the 2009 demo "The End Of..." and 2012's "Nicht Zu Vergessen", "Parasite" is Ira-K Organisation's first official release. Consisting of hard instrumentals reminiscent of the early age of :wumpscut:, this release effortlessly switches between the above, and some harsher numbers with coherent but vitriolic vocals. We wanted to accent the sound of "Parasite" in the most diverse manner possible, so bought in the remixing talents of household names Hypnoskull and Cervello Elettronico. In addition, Templezone and Mlada Fronta lend their talents to this unorthdox album - guaranteed to surprise you and impress you. "Parasite" releases on the 18th April - one of a handful of upcoming releases to drop on "Resistanz Friday" - where lucky festival goers can pick up this release the day it comes out - and be the first to get their hands on it.Comes in a 4 panel digipak with lyrics, and is limited to 50 copies. BONUS MATERIAL : The first 20 pre-orders of "Parasite" will come with an exclusive key-chain, designed and arranged by Ira-k Organisation.
