Ms.45 - Ms.45(Blu Ray/ UHD)

Ms.45 is an early 80's rape/revenge thriller set on the gritty streets of New York City. The film speeds by like a bullet- with the mute ‘n’ timid victim shifting from being traumatised & shellshocked, to a red lipstick wearing/ gun tooting killer. It drops down in horror, manipulative drama, and all-out gonzo exploitation.  Here from Arrow Video, both in the UK and stateside, here’s either a UHD or Blu-ray release of the film, taking in a commentary track, and a good selection of extras


Marc Benner - Rejection Sensitive

Rejection Sensitive is the second physical album released from Illinois-based noise maker Marc Benner, who also runs the noise/ experimental sound label Oxidation. It’s a four-track CDR, which focuses on textured noise manipulation.


Barrena and See Through Buildings - Split

Here’s a C50 split bringing together two side-long wall noise tracks. First, there’s the searing rush, battering billow, to later thick battering walled noise of Puerto Rican's Barrena. And second, we have a dense/overwhelming- yet oddly entrancing slab of walling from Garden Grove, California’s See Through Buildings.


Please Don't Feed the Children - Please Don't Feed the Children( DVD)

Destry Allyn Spielberg makes her feature directorial debut with 2024's Please Don't Feed the Children, written by Paul Bertino, starring Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey), Zoe Colletti (Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark), and Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad). Spielberg previously won Best Thriller at the City of Angels Women's Film Festival in 2022 for her short film Let Me Go the Right Way, so I had some expectations going in.


Illustrious - Mesmerine 111

Composed for Illustrious Labs' 3D audioscape system, Mesmerine 111 focuses on the physiological properties of 111hz on the human brain. Under the moniker Illustrious, Martyn Ware (founding member of The Human League, B.E.F., Heaven 17, et al) and Charles Stooke release two 50-minute 'doses' of Mesemerine 111, the original ambient, trance-inducing treatment and the vocal mix, with its hypnotic spoken word description of the Mesmerine treatment. Whether holistic medicine, ancient ritualism, or new age quasi-science, Mesmerine 111 is an intriguing premise that would definitely benefit more from the fully immersive, 3D audioscape experience.


Anton Lambert and Thanos Polymeneas Lion - tri-n-os

The collaboration between Anton Lambert and Thanos Polymeneas Liontiris, captured on their album, tri-n-os, is astonishing. There is little I can say to describe the intricate, mesmerising, and haunted work that is this release.
