What do you expect from a KW album entitled 'Allah Infinity'? Nothing else but Allah and Infinity. This is the most weird and dark KW record, a frozen and paralyzing minimalism as if in awe of Something. More like a message rather than music, this is... See full review

Despite the serene and seemingly apathetic movement of these megalithic glacial drones, there is a very eerie tension from the beginning to the very end of this remarkable record. A huge iceberg abound in dark tranquillity slowly but steadily moving... See full review

A calm but powerful beast that has passed the test of time, over 2 hrs of music and not a single weak moment, each time and a new revelation, give the sisters some time and you will be surprised to what they unveil.

Dear 212: concerning Wiese’s ‘fake’ material, you write on March 13 that they are Weiss’ own recordings, while on April 15 that they are Grassow’s. I am sure all Wiese’s fans are sick with this story and we all demand the truth, or at least, some... See full review

The electronic isoform of Gregorian chants, only HDG can really do that.

Nothing reminds modernity here (thus the commonly used industrial and/or ethnic are improper words for this album); instead, one gets engulfed in an eerie antediluvian prehistoric atmosphere, caves and fires and primordial men aghast at darkness, a... See full review

Archaic, heroic, pure, sacral; a criminally underrated post-ambient milestone (don’t be fooled by the haters’ ratings here, you need to give this album a chance), brief in duration but huge in impact, Olegh Kolyada at his most finest.

Meta-historical, meta-political, neo-this, pseudo-that : i don’t really care what Albin really was, but at that time he made some really fascinating music, this is an incredible album waiting to engulf you with every listening, it captivates me even... See full review

One of Nordvargr’s most brilliant moments, frozen ambient whose depth is highlighted by the experimental glitch and refreshing dub elements, altogether captivating from the beginning till the (surprising) end. Still available with its bonus cd in... See full review

Dear God, what a masterpiece, again, how many more unpublished works exist? Klaus Wiese never stops to amaze me, a true mystic of sound, there is something indefinite echoing the Absolute and the Eternal in his music, that nobody else has really... See full review

Distinctive clarinet-based drone psychedelia of the highest sensitivity and quality, mellow and mature and meditative, an album that needs to be saved.

Alio Die has an extensive discography of consistent high quality, pick up at random any of his releases and you won't be disappointed. But Incantamento is his absolute gem, i doubt that anybody can listen to this and not be impressed and even... See full review

I can not disagree here. I was also puzzled by the striking similarity with 'Himalaya' when i first listened to 'Rest' a couple of days ago, the synths are indeed almost identical, although an attentive listener will identify important structural... See full review

Politics aside, if it was not el-culto (Tomas Weiss) many Klaus Wiese works would have been left forgotten and perhaps forever inaccessible for many of us. Moreover, in my humble opinion, Weiss' attitude towards releasing Wiese's works seems to not be... See full review

Alchymeia contains four lengthy tracks with the intention of “scrutinizing the paths of Carl Gustav Jung’s notions of archetypes and the individuation process.” What Raison D’être does is create four scenes that feel partially and personally... See full review

Sound art par excellence! These are unique sound sculptures even for the high standards of Alio Die. Deep and meditative, an organic ambient milestone, a rare gem in the vast sea of manure and meaninglessness. Listening to this album will most... See full review

What Autopsia is to industrial, Docetism is to dub techno. 20 mins of profound eschatology pounding in your ears. Amen and prost.
