Yacöpsae/Res Gestae/La Vendetta 3-way Split (2008)

An exceptional three way split between German powerviolence giants Yacöpsae, La Vendetta, and Res Gestae. As we all know powerviolence is the one of the most extreme forms of hardcore punk. Fast and relentless, and very unforgiving, this split emphasizes all of those characteristics.Yacöpsae's performance is especially exceptionally and unforgettable in this split, possibly one of their best when compared to other splits - Yacöpsae/Fuck on the Beach, Yacöpsae & Rot split, etc. The heavy dissonant sounds, speed, and brevity of this split is just jaw dropping, each band does an exceedingly impressive job of pumping full blown iconoclastic and socio-politically charged adrenaline through you, you will not be displeased with this split in the slightest.

Ringfinger - Decimal [2008]

Ringfinger is the brainchild of Tracy Wilson, of Dahlia Seed fame. While Dahlia Seed were seminal in pioneering the emo genre, Wilson's Ringfinger project is far removed from her emo roots. A large collaborative effort, Decimal features guest collaborations with musicians from Sunn O))), ISIS, Cave In and Dälek, just to name a few. The result is an experimental album of great proportions, stylising itself through indie, pop, electronic, ambient, drone, noise and a plethora of other sounds, this album is one hell of a unique listen.

Sunn O))) - Dømkirke (2008)

Sunn O))) are known for their live performances and Dømkirke really accentuates their ability to make a great live album. The album has the perfect atmosphere with the live performance taking place in a cathedral with very operatic Gregorian chants coming from Attila Csihar, of Mayhem fame. The background organ in Why Dost Thou Hide Thyself in Clouds is an incredible number, competing with Attila's vocals at every note, they come together with total symbiosis. Much of the album takes on very intense atmospheric roles with a large mount of feedback noise, ridden with doomy operatic chants that reach several climaxes throughout the album. This is definitely a release from Sunn that you don't want to miss out on.
