Endless Comp CDs 1 & 2 '94-'95 (320)



"Manifold Records was an American music label that specialized in extreme ambient and other
difficult to define genres. A critical favorite during the mid 1990s, they often released records and
CDs in special packaging such as metal sheaths, water-filled plastic sleeves, and even saw blades.
The roster included Mick Harris, Justin Broadrick, Maurizio Bianchi, Aube, Voice Of Eye, and
many others whose recordings (at the time) were chronically described as 'isolationist'."

KLF & ENT - "The Black Room Story 1992" CDR (No Year / Later Boot, 320)


"'The Black Room' is an unfinished collaboration between KLF and Extreme Noise Terror. The original style was to be played as hardcore techno, then industrial metal, before settling on metallic thrash composed and produced by KLF but performed by Extreme Noise Terror. The album was scheduled for release by the end of 1991, then pushed back to March 1992. The two bands were still recording in February 1992 when KLF scrapped the sessions altogether. Asked if the recordings would ever be released, Jim of KLF said: 'There is a bootleg flying around, I haven't heard it (to verify). I thought I had the only copy (of the original sessions), but I guess there might be another one that was made.'"


Rapid DOG (Xol Dog 400s) - "Pong E.P." CD 1995


39 ultra short trax (remixed and intermixed by the same producer) of first-wave German hXc/terror...

Interviewer: "So, Rapid Dog is something like Intelligent Gabber?"

Soulman: "Huh? What?"

Dead VS Death To Humanity - Demos '86 & '88


Skeletal-white-cat-shit-fi duel to the DEATHRASH (that was the intent, but the actual tunes
were noisy-ish hardcore for D.T.H., and Dead may as well have been fraternal twins with Hellsaw)...

Controlled Bleeding - "Knees And Bones" LP 1985 & "Shanked And Slithering" CD 2005 (320)



"Controlled Bleeding was an experimental music project from Massapequa, New York. Founded by Paul Lemos, most of their recordings featured two main collaborators, Chris Moriarty and Joe Papa, who both died in the late 2000s. The band was originally formed in Boston around 1978, after returning alone to Massapequa, Lemos rebooted the project with old school friends Gary Pecorino (organ) and Tony Meola (drums), and released a 7" EP called 'Wall Of China Love Letter' in 1980. This early incarnation played progressive art rock. By 1983, Pecorino and Meola had left and were replaced by new collaborators Joe Papa, a 300-pound scat-singing eccentric, and Chris Moriarty, a neighbor of Paul's who played drums. The new trio's output soon strayed into areas of harsh industrial noise (sometimes mixed with guitar and vocal work). In February 1985, their first full length LP in this style, 'Knees And Bones', was released by Swedish label Psychout Productions. A 2005 compilation CD, 'Shanked And Slithering', contains previously released and unreleased material from that time (83-86) which was entirely remixed and remastered."
