How does 'free postage worldwide' work? Is sending from Australia that cheap? Is it subsizized by the government? 8-O |

One CD in jewel case or digipak fits as a "mail" instead of "parcel". And there are special prepaid mailers which have flat rate worldwide
Paradox is that to send 2-3 CDs in one package will cost about 10 dollars and sending them separately is about 1-2 dollars...

Now I'm jealous! Sending a CD within Germany costs me 1,45€. Outside Europe would be 6€. |

The EU post service is a well-fed monster trying probably to catch up with the Catholic church

A new review of Bring Me The Head Of Orion - Courting Leviathan is posted on DoomMantia (link):
Bring Me The Head Of Orion is a drone doom outfit from Austin, Texas who have already released demo's, been involved in a split album with Syncope and have appeared on some compilation albums so they have already had a productive recording career. This album is called "Courting Leviathan" and is released via Australia's Black Drone label. You may love or hate drone but either way its hear to stay and this one of the better releases in the genre. This has all the usual droning trademarks, extended humming and buzzing tones, a crushing bleak atmosphere and repetitive guitar and bass lines but this album is blacker than most. Obvious comparisons go out to Sunn O))) especially the Black One era and while drone is very limited sound wise, Bring Me The Head Of Orion take it about as far as the style can go given the confined limitations of this genre of music. Two epics "Courting Leviathan" and "For He Was Many" take up the bulk of the disc, both these tracks run over 20 minutes and there is two shorter tracks that begin and end the album. All the tracks follow the same path of droniness, long ringing chords that buzz and hum, no drumming or vocals, just a overwhelming sense of tension and controlled contemplative pensive awareness. Best track or the most easily listening track for the want of a better term would be "For He Was Many" which seems to have the most varied sound textures, not quite as monotonous as the other tracks. There is enough "brown noise" to please the hardcore drone fan but the sustained tones don't seem to have much purpose as there is not much in the way of song building. Very hypnotic for the most part, this album does have a mesmerizing quality about it but its definitive mood music to listen to in a darkened room alone. I feel at the moment, drone is stuck in a rut, the glory days of Sunn 0))) are over even though their recent material has been good, its just the experimentation side of the genre has hit a brick wall with the style just going around in circles. At least this album is very listenable but it is not ground breaking in any way, just solid drone done with a large amount of blackness inserted into it. If you don't like drone then you will hate this, if you want riffs and lots of them then avoid this but if you are a hardened drone listener, then you will enjoy this album by Bring Me The Head Of Orion. Its only been made in limited quantities however so be quick if you want to grab a copy. 7/10

New arrivals from TOSOM, Germany - a label making very high quality CDr releases in limited quantities... Packages include 3-4 beautiful photo inserts.
Releases by legendary Mystified, N.Strahl.N and Brandcommando and a debut by Spanish noise project Mixturizer.
Brandkommando - Welcome To Paradise
Style: Power Electronics, Noise
Country: Poland
Format: CDr, cardboard cover in plastic sleeve
Release date: 09.07.07
Brandkommando strikes again with antipolitical noise sounds...
Mixturizer - Masoquistauditivo
Style: Noise
Country: Spain
Format: CDr, slim CD size DVD case
Release date: 31.12.09
"Masoquistauditivo" is a big, wide and high wall of Noise. The 3 long tracks are very intense and aggressive. Real noise sounds for your brain and a sound orgy for your ears. You must feel it... and enjoy!
Mystified - Hypno-Strain
Style: Drone Ambient
Country: USA
Format: CDr, slim CD size DVD case
Release date: 09.02.09
Thomas Park, an US Ambient and Drone artist, is active as MYSTIFIED since 2003. Known from tons of releases, most as free downlable mp3s, and all of his compostions are very worth to check. He is also the owner of Treetrunk Records, a Netlabel with very interesting Ambient and Drone releases. "Hypno-Strain" contains 9 tracks. A release that show us that Mystifieds music is more than only Drones and Ambient. Of course we find here his wonderful and hypnotize Ambient Drones, but also he combines here on some tracks his soundscapes with very discreet and minimal rhythms. Despite his dark and minimal compositions, "Hypno-Strain" stands for a relax feeling.
N.Strahl.N - Brot Und Lügen
Style: Industrial, Noise
Country: Germany
Format: CDr, cardboard cover in plastic sleeve
Release date: 01.11.06
This release is the perfect link between the "normal" TOSOMs and the XX-Serie. On his third release, N.Strahl.N puts the focus on his more noisy edge. Monotonous walls of Machinery-Loops, metallic scraping, manipulated radiowaves and heavily processed fieldrecordings. No message, no deeper meaning, no propaganda. Just some pretty pop-muzak for the age of "bread and lies".
N.Strahl.N / Mystified - Spurensicherung
Style: Drone Ambient, Noise
Label [Cat. #]: Tosom Records [TOSOM 042]
Country: Germany/USA
Format: CDr, slim DVD case (second hand, good condition)
Release date: 09.02.09
Split release by two very busy wellknown projects. N.STRAHL.N from Germany with sounds between Dark Ambient Industrial, Concrete Soundscapes and Experimental Electronics. The two very long tracks by MYSTIFIED from the staates are best Experimental Drones and Soundscapes. Printed CDR in a DVD Box with 4 Inserts. Artwork is factory printed on high quality glossy photographic paper.

I sold it out in three days - that's why the link is not working any more. I think I'll have more copies soon and it'll return to live
