Reviews
	Mono-Amine - Industrial Thought Patterns Not since Converter's legendary "Blast Furnace" have I felt quite as happy with my rivethead status. This is, without a doubt, some of the finest industrial/powernoise it has been my pleasure to listen to in a long time. Read more
	AZ-Rotator - Indefinable Sugar Cube "Indefinable Sugar Cube" can be a difficult album to get into initially and is not the best introduction to AZ-Rotator's work for the first-time listener. Nevertheless, it is an excellent piece of work and bound to please those who appreciate well-produced, complex IDM and abstract electronica with a playful twist. Read more
	Integral - Rise "Rise" is definitely an album that's been highly refined, with amazing production quality, and various parts have been worked on for a long time. Aside from a few regressive tendencies, it's an amazing release. Read more
	Oszillotom - Energetika Oszillotom create music that is deep, distorted and chaotic but do so in a perfectly calculated way that results in a collection of superbly realised tracks. Showcasing a range of styles from tense, dark ambient through to heavy multi-layered drones and visiting several points between the two extremes, Oszillotom show there is more to their music than wonderfully executed industrial noise.

	Myrrman - PorNOsmagoria It's a malicious, unpleasant record, likely to scare away most listeners - unless you happen to like the foot-cramping vertigo that comes with an unwilling paradigm shift. For me, personally, it was wonderful, original mood music to accompany my lengthy commutes to and from work, inspiring all sorts of antisocial mental meandering... Read more
	C/A/T - The Great Crisis "The Great Crisis" is both a simple machine and the maddening administrator of melodic crunch. While the classic C/A/T sound is still present, overall, this new album tends to sound a touch more refined than previous releases. Read more
