Metal Blade, Thrash, Satanic, Greece, Black Metal; (2015) Limited Edition Gatefold LP + woven patch - NEW
Launching forth on a nefarious mission dictated specifically by the horned master himself, Satan's Wrath stubbornly refuse to take their foot off the accelerator on their nightmarish ride to insanity and overload. This brainchild of sulphur-throated multi-instrumentalist Tas Danazoglou, has grown in monstrous stature, unflinching cruelty and sheer bloody-minded intensity over the course of its two full-throttle platters thus far, building an ominous pathway for Die Evil, its third unholy document, which emerges unto twilight in intimidating fashion, blasting their blasphemous attack into dimensions of dementia hitherto deemed beyond the pale.
Black 180g vinyl in gatefold sleeve with woven patch, limited to 444 copies worldwide.

Dark Wave, Industrial, Experimental, Electronic, Post-punk, Melbourne, Self Released; Limited Edition Cassette w/- Download code - As new
One of Australia’s most intriguing darkwave electronic acts, the tandem of Mohini Hillyer and Emma Hart as electro-tinged post-punk outfit Mollusc, has played a crucial role in defining and galvanising the growing darkwave scene in Australia, which has flourished in the latter half of the 2010s. Hypnotic and near-impenetrable in nature, the band’s 2015 debut EP is a sterling example of the power of the genre, blending a mixture of haunted industrial leanings, formidable throb-n-punch, a foreboding weight and simmering aggression. In six songs, Mollusc managed to take all the good bits of the genre and serve them up on a platter, setting a standard for the scene here in Australia. This is the original 2015 cassette release, later reissued on vinyl through 'IT Records'.

411 was the equivalent of the internet for three quarters of the ’90s. That’s a big deal. Who didn’t like how random the 60/40 commercials were, or fast forward some spot check on a clunky park in Germany, or losing it anytime Sal Barbier addressed us via “The Grapevine”? For real, when he announced that Goodtimes Intelligence Agency was giving away a trip to Hawaii, he was genuinely puzzled–you can’t script that. By the way, who won that trip and what did it entail? Did you get to hang out with Carl Carpenter?
Having a steady stream of video showing up at your local shop made you feel connected and let more scenes shine, instead of exclusively seeing more footage of “some guy with a backwards fitted” somewhere in California. Being able to see what was going on in Love, Pulaski, or New York, in what felt like realtime completely changed the world’s view of the East Coast, inspiring people from everywhere to check out the spots. Ultimately that was a good look for everyone.
Louis Malle, Rare, Controversial, War, Classic, Powerful, Taboo; DVD - Ex Used condition
Having been rejected by the Resistance for being too young, teenager Lucien Lacombe joins the Gestapo in a show of defiance. But upon falling for the daughter of a Jewish tailor, Lucien begins to view his actions in a very different light. Louis Malle was never a director to worry about public opinion, having ruffled feathers with his intellectual study of incest in 1971s, Soufflé au coeur, Le, he practically ostracised himself with this simmering collaboration piece. Tho it has to be said that the sheer weight of the fall out in his home country would surely have taken him by surprise, however, what remains to this day is a highly accomplished character piece that engrosses from the get go. It's now something of common knowledge that Malle drew from his own upbringing by way of motivation in some of his work, how much of this particular story affected him is not entirely clear, but what isn't in doubt is that the directors time during the occupation of France lends this piece an aura of honesty, it feels personal, and the result is very special indeed. Each individual viewer can interpret the sequence of events as they may, but just maybe Lacombe Lucien is a simple portrayal of a missed opportunity, and this missed opportunity coupled with naivety bred the wickedness that is viewed in the film. The theme of betrayal hangs heavy in the story, and the mere fact that Malle refused to take sides with his outlaying of the story, only furthers the sense of intrigue that covers the viewer come the stunning ending, an ending that creeps up on you and begs you for another thought process.
Rare, Elvis, Piss-take, Photography; Americana, Large-scale, Road-trip; Hardcover Book - Good Used condition (Cover has some crease marks)
''The King is Alive!''...The journey of the photographers Robert Huber and Stephan Vanfleteren began in New York somewhere along 42nd street. It ended three weeks and eleven states later in Death Valley. Everything the two artists did during their journey, they did dressed as Elvis Presley, the King of Rock'n'Roll. The artists photographed each other, with Presley (Vanfleteren) in black and white, and Elvis (Huber) in color. ''Elvis'' and ''Presley'' crossed the country riding Greyhound buses and subways, hitch-hiking, strolling through malls or ending up in small town bars where strange women embraced them. While as photojournalists they were accustomed to remaining behind the scenes, here Huber and Vanfleteren found themselves suddenly thrust into the spotlight of their own work. What emerges is a hyperreal road movie, a media-damaged update of Robert Frank's "The Americans ", in which two Europeans step into the boundless television screen that is America. Hardcover, 11 x 11 inches, 98 pages, 45 color and 45 b&w illustrations.

Pinku, Violent, Erotic, Porn, Japanese, Pink, Taboo, French; DVD - Ex Used condition
Nami works in a department store. She is asked to stand in for a friend in a magazine photo-shoot, which turns out to be for an S&M magazine called "Red Porno". When the photos are published, she is sacked and her lover abandons her. Muraki, who is an unpopular otaku loner, tries to meet up with Nami but is shot by a woman who takes him for a rapist and dies. Fourth in the series and full of stylish sequences and almost non stop full bloodied (almost hardcore) SM orientated sex. Ikeda's film does not fit the basic rape, revenge/consequence pattern of the others and initially confuses because it does not conform to our expectations. Especially difficult for western audiences is the mixing of, very strong sexual needs of women, rape and romance. We get particularly frank, wet and slurping scenes of female masturbation, images/memories/fantasies of rape and the gradual development of a most unlikely romantic liaison. The film is at times so good to look at that the slight and occasional lapses are noticeable. One is thrown for instance when Nami runs from her department store after hearing that she is to be sacked for appearing in a porno mag. The music and the way she is shot leads one to suspect that she has had enough and will seek to avenge herself. This French release DVD is Japanese with French subtitles only unfortunately....
Robin Fox, Experimental, Electronic, Synaesthesia, Rare, Digital, Australia, Melbourne; DVD - Ex Used condition
"Digital culture is obsessed with synaesthesia, especially sound/image convergence. From club ‘visuals’ to automatic ‘visualiser’ plugins for mp3 applications, there’s an ideal of sensory fusion at work which draws on cyber/psychedelic rave culture, and utopian new media discourse.
Ideals aside, digital media forms do create new potential for varieties of ‘machine’ synaesthesia–automatic mappings between sound and image. Visualiser plugins offer specific and more-or-less arbitrary mappings of image to sound. While they can’t (promise to) induce a synaesthetic experience, they do offer a machine synaesthesia that might challenge, reorder, or at least reflect on, our own audiovisual perception. Yet most synaesthesia machines are little more than bolted-on nozzles that turn all your favourite tunes into generic visual sludge.
By contrast Robin Fox’s Backscatter disc presents a highly specific and refined synaesthesia machine. He has assembled a simple audiovisual synthesizer using simple digitally synthesised audio and an old analog oscilloscope. The oscilloscope is in ‘polar’ mode, so instead of scanning left to right, displaying the conventional ‘trace’ of the waveform, the trace orbits the screen. Waveforms create woven circles, loops, twisting spirals, filigreed knots.
Response is instantaneous, so the screen jumps and twitches in sync with Fox’s audio signature skitters and blips. The sound-vision mapping is supple, the images beautiful and sometimes surprising. The pieces feel quite controlled, even composed, the way they seem to literally reveal new twists and tricks. Overall, the results are staggering."
