Mistress McCutchan
The Drowning Season – Hollow
Track Listing: Hollow, Violet Sky, Perfect (Dream), Six Feet Under, Ashes, Godspeed, White Sand, Red Sand, Gun, Common Things, Grace.
This album has grown on me for quite a bit. This Baltimore-based band has got that Cult-feel to it, very much in the vein of good ole gothic rock. Perfect (Dream), is an easy tune to fall into. For more info, check out www.drowning-season.com
Android Lust – The Dividing
Track Listing: Division, Kingdom of One, Panic Wrought, Follow, The Want, Stained, Unbeliever, Another Void, Fall to Fragments, Sex and Mutilation, Burn.
This cd doesn’t easily fit into one category – it’s a palette ranging from very melodic to super-harsh, honest-to-god industrial with powerful female vocals. More info can be found at www.androidlust.com
Blessed Oblivion
Track Listing: Breathing of Leaves, Darkest Skies, Slipaway, Pathlogy of Roses, Je ne sais quoi, Still Searching, Je ne sais quoi II, Aetherium, Last Vestige, Ananda.
Spacey, girly ambient with lilting, female vocals. A great cd to put on and chill out to. The cover artwork is in a cool, metallic paper, too. More information can be found at Ventricle.
Viscera – v.zero
Track Listing: Artismight - Princess, Morthem Vlade Art - Splendor in the Grass, Seven Trees - Loss of Breath, In the Nursery - Love Will Tear Us Apart (Again), Remanence - Now Can I Feel?, No Comment - The Wedding Guest, Sabotage - Beat Up, Ophelia Burning - Child of Blue Days, Ikon - Heresy (demo version), Arc Gotic - The Madnman’s Tale, Leisur Hive - Flow Montage, Desiderii Marginis - Latency, Attrition - Lip Sync (DOS mix), 8kHz Mono - Frequency, Lust Murder Box - Nothing, Dave Scott - Pompeii.
The most well-rounded mix I’ve listened to in a long time. Includes well-known bands as well as fantastic up-and-comers. Easy to listen to and enjoy by a wide variety of fans. Get your copy! Available from Luminal Records.
Arkane – Arcane Elitism
Track Listing: Arcane Elitism, Mesmerism of the Temptresses’ Sirens, Vacchia, Dryades of Selene, Arcanum, Ambience of the Moon, Summoning the Muse, Acarnanian.
A strange, esoteric marriage of dark ambient and folksy occultic (that brings Raison D'etre and Death in June to mind). Came in a beautiful, DVD-like package. Released by Fossil Dungeon.
