Demonographer – The Angels Which Kept Not Their First Estate / Fallen angels, drowned giants, would-be kings put in their place, celestial prison breaks, unholy howls, and a whole lot of dirty Black n Roll. It’s the 8 minute / 4 song debut from Demonographer – Srogi Mroczek

Robert Scott Thompson – A Blue Echo in the Void / A new track, a free-download, out today

Theo Kidd – Believers

Twenty-Three Hanging Trees – Enclin Declin (Gizeh Records) / Fresh from Gizeh Records, who have impeccable taste. Slooooow modular synths with slooow instrumentation. This promises to be a perfect fit for the next 9 months of Autumn in the UK – Brandon Invergo

VA – Hello Sunshine: A Tribute To Relatively Clean Rivers (Raven Sings The Blues) / We’ve been longtime fans of Phil Pearlman’s short-lived band Relatively Clean Rivers, and their sole 1976 LP, so it was a true joy to participate in this collection of covers – Trummors
