‘heaven is a place on hell’ is the mind-melting debut of Spanish ensemble Forceps. Saxophone monster Polychronidis (of Skullfuck fame) mangles his saxophone and will not stop playing until you cry and Jaula’s abstract noise guitar will make you get to that point quickly. ‘heaven is a place on hell’ is an arousing affair that is both noisy and tender. Spain is truly the place these days!

These two heavy hitters of the European improv scene should not be strangers to Norwegianism Records afficionados. ‘Void Into Shape’ is another convincing example of their abililty to sound extremely abstract without immediately alienating the listener. Be prepared to have your mind warped into another dimension.

‘Soil’ is the first outing of Dutch newcomers Meglamancha. Four industrial-tinged drone tracks that make you feel you’re just a cog inside a very big machine. Loads to love here if you’re a fan of the soundtrack works of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. An impressive debut album!

Sprank marks the glorious return of Dutch maestro Machinefabriek to Norwegianism Records. The album is a collage made with recordings of circuit bent effects pedals and can be seen as the equivalent of a huge abstract yet detailed paiting, made with with a very tiny brush. A truly mesmerizing record.
