(PHR-80) SLICING GRANDPA - The Abstracticator CDR

Slicing Grandpa. No fucking joke. They're ripping it harder than anyone else. One of the favorite bands on the house. Garbage grunge collage abstractness at its lo-fiest, away from every trend, away from any hip. They're not old-fashioned, they're slicing-fashioned. Buy at your own risk...
Edition of 60 copies w/ screenprinted covers.

(PHR-79) ARKLIGHT / DEAD GUM split C60

Lens traveling through inner depths of transatlantic mirrorings. Light is never enough to clearly get the whole picture. On two homogeneous sides, two blindfolded cinematic enigmas are the only clue. Dig Sherlock, dig!
Edition of 65 copies w/ screenprinted covers.

(PHR-78) COCKS OF THE DEAD - Blowskull Tape 2 C20

Total ugliness, volume no. 2 in tapes that blow skulls from the mysterious duo. Side A is laptop harshness, side B gtr + piano awkward imrov. Feels like the world came to an end, and that's totally it.
Limited edition of 30 tapes, w/ spraypainted, stamped covers.

(PHR-77) WHAM JAH - Wham Jazz CDR

Guitar + drums electronica jam mayhem from Kostadis Michail (Lost Bodies) + Panagiotis Spoulos (Reverse Mouth). First installment, remixed in audiophile noise by Kostadis. More to come, certainly lots of more to explore + destroy.
Edition of 60 copies, screenprinted covers + spraypainted discs.

(PHR-76) DEAD GUM - Lost Decade CDR

More like a concept album, "Lost Decay" is a really different approach at Dead Gum's music focusing on childhood nostalgia, appreciation of then-weird memories or half-remembered feelings. A blur, numb sound which balances through late-night bedroom minimalism and pure emotional introversion. Packaged in a super jewel case w/ monochromatic artwork + spray-painted discs. Limited to 50.

(PHR-75) Η ΜΑΝΑ ΣΟΥ ΕΙΝΑΙ Ο ΠΑΤΕΡΑΣ ΣΟΥ - Είσαι η Αδερφή Σου CDR

After a long delay we are psyched to announce a really unique collab between members of Placenta Popeye, Slicing Grandpa + Opera Mort. More specifically suspects are El-g, Jo Tanz, Patric Lombe + John Laux. A weird result with also weird titles + credits (in greek), a dark tale of psychic incest, deform + strangeland blues. Comes in 2 versions:

A) Hand-sewn 12-page zine (limited to 40 copies)

* sold out *

B) Regular CD-R version w/ pasted-on covers (limited to 60)

Last night's party

At OpenShowStudio was almost post-apocalyptic through mostly post-punk mash up mayhem + wasted dance moves. This week also features Adam_is' installation for the Vitrina Project, entitled "Black Sun". Drop by, any time.
