From the late 1980’s The Monster Squad is a thoroughly charming and entertaining teen horror comedy, which perfectly blends It genres in a nostalgic, at times fairly creative, but always engaging manner. It follows a ragtag gang of kids who find out their town has been invaded by classic/ universal monsters- taking in Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, The Wolf Man, The Mummy, and The Gill Man- who are all wonderfully recreated by special effects master Stan Winston. Here from Arrow Video UK is either a UHD or Blu-ray release of the film, featuring a 4k scan and a huge selection of archive extras, including two feature-length documentaries.

Idolatry is a two-track journey into extreme crude/ lo-fi walled noise from this up-and-coming Florida project, which is all the work of Ivan Reash ( Bastard Sword, Sex With Dead Slaves, self-named releases). Each track here runs around the twenty-minute mark, and each is as raw as the other.
Painial is a nearly seventeen-minute shot of roughshod wall-craft from this Scranton, South Carolina, project. It most certainly is an unrelenting attack on your ears- with the sound picture as full & overwhelming as possible.
La Terreur HNW presents us with two around eighteen-minute slabs of battering & brutalising walled noise from this highly prolific project from Bordeaux, France.

Olion Interview
Active since the early 2020’s, Olion is one of the key projects within the euro wall-noise scene. To date, it’s put out around seventy releases- taking in both physical and digital form- with stand-alone releases, splits, and collaborations. Sound-wise, their output moves between pummelling, thick-yet oddly soothing. To more texturally layered, and forays into ANW. Behind the project is Olek Browiński from Olsztyn in northern Poland, and he kindly agreed to give us an email interview
A Julian Cope Primmer
Erupting into the mainstream on February 19th 1981, The Teardrop Explodes’ debut ‘Top of the Pops’ television performance featuring their brassy, bouncy hit ‘Reward’ is to this day probably the moment from which most people recall Julian Cope. If your image of Julian remains that of an earnest young budding pop star sporting a fleece-collared flying jacket and a shaggy bowlcut of shoulder-length tresses, if you failed to maintain pace with his entry into the cosmos, if you dismissively describe him (as I’ve seen thereabouts) as “a Smash Hits pin-up”, you have one hell of a lot of catching up to do. Musique Machine have tasked me with leading their readers through the psychedelic jungle and beyond, here, and I have to say that Julian probably merits the ‘beginners’ guide to’ / ‘recommended records’ treatment more than just about any other artist in the music sphere, at least in terms of how public perception and the ‘reality’ (if such a word is appropriate in this extreme case) have a near-unbridgeable gulf.
Orchestra Of The Upper Atmosphere Interview
Early this year, the band released their most recent album Theta 7, on Discus Music-which is sadly to be their last. Band leader Martin Archer kindly agreed to give us an email interview, discussing the project's history & why they’ve decided to call it a day.
Vacant Align Interview
Active since October 2025, Wisconsin’s Vacant Align is one of the more atmospheric and texturally inventive wall noise projects to appear in some time. It’s a project that takes its time in releasing work, and you can certainly hear it, as each of their releases so far is a perfectly crafted blend of expressive and engaging textures. Behind the project is John Engman, who very kindly agreed to give us an email interview
