Rome's Zu - Jacopo Battaglia (drums), Massimo Pupillo (bass), and Luca T Mai (saxophone) - are more than a mere power trio: they're a three-man wrecking crew smashing their way through musical boundaries and listeners' skulls. Since 1997, this metal/ math/no-wave/free/noise/punk/jazz-inspired outfit have built an enviable reputation for sonic ferocity, hypnotic complexity and visceral attack, and now they're finally ready to unleash their debut for Ipecac in the snarling form of Carboniferous. Featuring material honed over a year of consistent touring as a quartet featuring Mike Patton, Carboniferous takes the trio's sound further into a world in which rock, jazz and noise co-exist without compromise, and features guest contributions from King Buzzo (Melvins) and Mike Patton.

One of the most vicious - and viciously original - hip hop outfits in the world, New Jersey duo dälek are proof that genre-blending doesn't necessarily entail genre-blanding, investing hip-hop with an experimental edge and an ear for sonic extremity, weaned as much on Sabbath, Melvins, My Bloody Valentine and Faust as the brutalist bricolage of the Bomb Squad, Mobb Deep, Schooly D and Wu Tang. dälek's fourth full-length album for Ipecac, Gutter Tactics is a liberating crawl through sewers sonic and metaphorical, the outfit's trademark bipolar personality - mellow vs aggressive, ethereal vs earthy - reconciled into a single sonic entity. The overall murk of the sound itself makes good on producer and founder okt0pus' mutterings about "David Lynch lighting - shadowy, claustrophobic, but shoved with detail," his aural edifices rich in texture and shading. MC dälek's inimitable flow is deeper and more truthful/painful than ever, essaying the nightside of the psyche with an articulate rage. Gutter Tactics is the next step on dälek's long journey through the dark night of the soul - join them if you dare.

Brought together by their shared fascination for experimental music and noise, the San Francisco- based lounge-collage duo Tipsy consists of Tim Digulla and David Gardner. In 1997 they released the retro-lounge themed 'Trip Tease' which mixed cut-up exotica and electronics with real instruments in a slickly surreal way. By lucky coincidence, it was released at the height of the brief lounge fad and turned out to be a surprise pop success, showing up in the background everywhere; obscure indie movie soundtracks, international soda and beer commercials, TV (MTV's Real World, The Sopranos, Sex In The City), the corner bar and even Tokyo Disneyland's Tomorrowland. Tipsy has finally assembled a much anticipated new album, Buzzz, more rhythmically oriented, less loop-heavy than before. Featuring quirky Japanese singer Coppe, Tipsy continues to push their pop weirdness another step beyond.

Not In Rivers, But In Drops" is the second single taken from 2006's full-length "In the Absence of Truth" and features the album version, a live audio version from 9/30/06, which was recorded during their US stadium tour with Tool. Both "Not In Rivers, But In Drops" and "Holy Tears" were released in celebration of Isis' 10th Anniversary. A video of the song directed by Sera Timms and a remix version of the previous single "Holy Tears" done by Thomas Dimuzio.

Filmed by Douglas Pledger, Matthew Rozeik and Alex Gunnis the music is culled from the sole FantomasMelvins Big Band release (Millennium Monsterwork) as well as music from both the Melvins and Fantomas catalogues. Bonus feature is an audio commentary with Danny DeVito, Ipecac co-owner Greg Werckman, booking agent Robby Fraser, Melvins’ Dale Crover and Buzz Osborne.

Zach Hill , drummer for NorCal noise-rock outfit Hella, is set to release his first solo album, titled Astrological Straits, on Ipecac Recordings. Hill, considered one of the most innovative drummers of modern music, has spent the past year working on the album as well as touring and recording with Marnie Stern. For all of its dark elements--drugs, death and his own loved ones' brushes with both are among its lyrical inspirations--Astrological Straits is a celebration for Hill; an affirmation of his ability to step out of previous roles to write his own future. That's something you can hear not just in the music, which finds Hill's higher-mathematical approach to the kit expanding via funk, soul and bigband- style arrangements (if, presumably, those genres had Martian origins), but also in the overall celebratory spirit Hill and collaborators bring to the proceedings.

Almost 25 years and over 25 albums since their inception, Melvins return with their brand new studio album Nude With Boots. Founder member King Buzzo and almost founding member Dale Crover are again joined by the Big Business duo Jared Warren & Coady Willis for an extended quartet line-up featuring the same double drum attack that knocked heads clean off on 2006’s (A) Senile Animal. After two years of solid touring, the now rejuvenated, stable line-up bring us 11 new songs ranking up with the best of their output - straight up no nonsense rock action like no-one but the Melvins has the balls or chops to get away with playing these days.

Farmers Market has become one of Norway's most popular live bands, playing at all kinds of venues and festivals: jazz, folk and rock. Farmers Market has been releasing music in Norway sporadically over the past decade but their releases have been generally hard to find on U.S. shores, or elsewhere in Europe for that matter. Those who have been lucky enough to hear the outfit have been instantly won over by the unbelievable musicianship and oddball mixture of styles. The group’s last release came in 2000 and according to the band the title was never released, a secret amongst them and the label. The band now releases Surfin' USSR on the Ipecac label.

A Perfect Place is released on Ipecac recordings and includes a DVD of David Scocchera's movie as well as a CD of Mike Patton's score. Photographed in B&W Panavision, A Perfect Place is a neo-noir tragi-comedy revolving around a pair of bumbling friends trying to dispose of a corpse. While some of the music is orchestrative in its nature, in classic Patton style there's an infusion of genres blending pop and ragtime balladry. Shades of Ennio Morricone, John Barry and Fantomas combine with a smoky, suitably cinematic ambience.

Given that their new album opens with a guitar riff that could melt lead - a theme, incidentally, that extends throughout Another Sound Is Dying - you'd be forgiven for wondering what connects Brookyln's Dub Trio to the nearly 40-year-old Jamaican style that makes up half their name. The answer, you'll find, comes just minutes later, as the riffs, riddims and raw power at the core of Dub Trio's sound get chopped apart, bounced across speaker channels and charged with subsonic frequencies. From the dramatic, shoegaze-style post-metal of "Respite" and the straightforward roots-reggae nods in "Mortar Dub", to the contrapuntal, lid-peeling violence of the closing track, "Funishment", the album showcases Dub Trio's chops and vocabulary as much as it finds them swinging, grooving and pummeling with wrecking-ball force.

In celebration of Isis' 10th anniversary we bring you the Holy Tears single, the first of two enhanced CD maxi singles featuring tracks from the In Absence Of Truth albums, along with videos, reinterpretations of the songs by some of their favourite artists and exclusive live versions.

Rutherford, NJ on the 2006 Isis tour supporting Tool.

A brash, bi-racial beauty with the voice of an angry angel and a truck-stop vocabulary, she's a music industry veteran with an envious discography, classical violin training and is a member of Mike Patton's Peeping Tom band to boot! The release of her eighth studio venture, The Black & White Album, marks a departure from the sound to which many of her fans have grown accustomed. The melancholic, sample-heavy soundscapes featured on albums like Chupacabra and Aphrodite have given way to a smorgasbord of genre-hopping fun from joyous full bore pop through to noisy bratty punk...

Qui was founded in 2000 by drummer/vocalist Paul Christensen and guitarist/vocalist Matt Cronk in Los Angeles, California. In late 2006, Qui was joined by legendary vocalist David Yow of The Jesus Lizard/Scratch Acid fame and the rest, as they say, is history. 2007 sees the release of 'Love's Miracle', which includes covers of Pink Floyd's "Echoes" and Frank Zappa's "Willie the Pimp"... as well as the seven mind-blowing tracks written by the band themselves. Strap on your fucking knee pads.

"Finally free of the Columbia/SONY machine, we teamed up with producer Chuck Brody of Shitake Monkey (Wu Tang Clan, Yoko Ono etc) and Adrock from the Beastie Boys and recorded an album for Ipecac Recordings. We pushed the limits in terms of what Northern State can sound like, with our classic old school hip hop sound weaving its way through a new electro-rock current. We did an unprecedented amount of singing and we were fortunate to have some talented friends like Mr. Murray Hill, Kaki King, and Katie Cassidy stop by and play on the album. When it was finished, we named it, 'Can I Keep This Pen?' Enjoy." - Northern State

Circus Devils incorporates a musical alchemy of hard rock and soft rock, ugliness and beauty, tension and ambiance, eerie moods, stories, humour, and rock opera theatrics, resulting in a strangely coherent cinematic musical experience. Circus Devils is the most eccentric tip of Pollard’s overflowing discography, likened to an indie rock version of Fantômas, 'Sgt. Disco' features 32 tracks ranging from those under one minute to “regular” song lengths.

'Athlantis' is something like an oratorio, with the incredible singers Mike Patton and Jessika Kenney on the main parts. Inspired by Renaissance era literature and philosophy, 'Athlantis' was a chance for Eyvind Kang to interact with one of his favourites Giordano Bruno and his book 'Cantus Circaeus'. He studied and set the text, combining obscure poems from Bishop Marbode of Rennes, and some lines from the Hungarian epic 'Planctus Destructionis', he did the ground work and created the musical space. All of the singers, choir and soloists, came in and inhabited it and made it their own.

At the turn of the millennium, Duane Denison (U.S.S.A and ex-Jesus Lizard) toured with Hank Williams III, frequently finding himself on indian reservations. "I was somewhat disappointed by the 'native' bands." Duane explains, "They were usually very conventional, kind of blues and country type stuff, or too much like 'new age' music. I figured there must be native music somewhere that was more aggressive, spookier, and more kinetic." Duane began to research the culture’s music; about a year into his research he found books that were written around the time of Teddy Roosevelt’s presidency, a period in U.S. history when Indian culture and artifacts were in vogue. The books, dated to the early 20th century, recorded transcriptions of the songs contained herein. The titles: “Totem,” “Mescal Rite 1” and “Song of Victory” are all true to the names uncovered by the people who originally transcribed them, although Duane says “Red Fox” was altered to be more accessible. One song, “Long, Long Weary Day,” is a non-Native American “parlour music” song of the same time period, and also remains un-credited. Now a three piece, Tomahawk recorded 'Anonymous' in two-parts. Duane Denison and John Stanier (Battles, Ex-Helmet) recorded guitars and drums (respectively) in Nashville while Mike Patton (Peeping Tom, Fantômas, Ex-Faith No More) added vocals and samples at Vulcan Studios in San Francisco.

Licker's Last Leg is a true musical potpourri, which reflects the group's across-the-boards influences. No denying the recognizable sounds of both NIN and Queens Of The Stone Age, but also the influences of the new folk scene such as Devendra Banhart, Joanna Newsom and Deerhoof. Twelve songs and five years in the making, it can only be described as a collage of hippie/goth/retro sounds, covering a period from the 70's through to the early 00's including a cover of the early Bee Gees song "Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You", which White chalks up to being a huge Brit-pop fan.

'A Purge Of Dissidents' brings together the animation work of fine-artist Dalek and the musicianship of toy designer HAZE XXL. Working as a team, this joint venture culminated in ten animation pieces, debuting in Paris as part of an installation at Galleries Magda Danysz. It is not simply a CD with extravagant packaging, nor a book with some bonus materials, but a project in which the sum is greater than the parts. In addition to the Book/DVD/CD release on Ipecac , HAZE XXL took some of the thirty finished instrumentals, and had various friends (Craig Finn - Hold Steady, David Yow - Jesus Lizard/Scratch Acid, Jon Spencer - Blues Explosion, and Grant Hart - Husker Du) put their own spin on them by including vocals. The 'APOD' soundtrack includes a track from each of these sessions.

The Unsane legendary trademark sound stamps all over the trio’s new record, though sounding more like a product of their environment 'Visqueen is an assault of cold, ugly distortion and gargantuan heavyness. More diverse than past releases 'Visqueen' will satiate diehard fans and garner new ones, bigger, better and as always IN YOUR FACE. It's a true to form album for the legedary rock powerhouse that embodies uneasy listening at it's most confrontational.

This album is very deceiving," Dälek explains, likening 'Abandoned Language' to a David Lynch film. "When you listen to it the first time, you kind of get into it for the melodic reasons, but the more you listen to it the more fucked up you realize it is," he continues, laughing. "I think a lot of people could get into it for the wrong reasons and not really realize what's being said or what's going on sonically or compositionally, and by the tenth listen you realize you're sucked into this bizarre world, you know?" he explains, pausing for a second to collect his thoughts. "We want to embrace you with the sound and then suffocate you

While the album’s mysterious title will be interpreted in different ways, Zach Hill (drums) – who came up with the title – sheds some light. “It means what it says - it's putting things in perspective as far as, you can relate it to anything - the cycle of how things get carried away and how the 'mob mentality' happens. When you can put it in a different light, how ridiculous it all seems - how petty and miniscule everything is, in the concept of the universe or space. How things evolve into such a massive brainwash - whether you're a right wing conservative or an anarchist - all these ideas that don't exist anywhere else.”

"In The Absence Of Truth", Isis’ fourth album for Ipecac, showcases the masters of epic post-metal adventurings at the height of their sublime powers; a nine-track opus of noise, clarity and colour, the album sees Isis take a more restrained, brooding approach than on its predecessor "Panopticon, with the effect that the record’s periodic grinding assaults are of more fearsome intensity than ever. Isis have here come full-circle, inspired by the developments in avant-metal and post-rock that they themselves kickstarted with their early releases; here the traces of Shipping News’ mournful guitar soundscapes merge with the churning thunder of cutting-edge metal acts like High On Fire to generate a gripping, widescreen journey that is still unmistakeably Isis. They remain peerless in their ability to captivate and transfix as they guide the listener through the complex pathways of their hypnotic, subterranean journeys.

With the release of "(A) Senile Animal", the Melvins' fifteenth (!) studio album, the evergreen hardcore heroes confirm their ability to move with the times and remain relevant while always retaining a distinctive sound, presenting here a formidable, decidedly chunky slab of thundering agit-rock. The tongue-in-cheek title might suggest their age is starting to show, but a cursory listening to the blistering melee of melodic noise lurking within is enough to offset any such doubts. Buzz has been quoted as saying 'I'm very pleased with the results and can't wait to play this stuff live, and you'll be impatient to hear it'. *Coady Willis* and *Jared Warren*, of Seattle band *Big Business*, are both present and correct to ensure that maximum devastation is wreaked

Ipecac are thrilled to announce the release of avant-metal visionaries Isis’ debut DVD "Clearing The Eye". This two hour-plus epic, filmed in high definition quality, captures the legendary live outfit at their exhilarating best during key shows in Los Angeles, New York and Tokyo, and an entire gig from Sydney last year. The DVD also includes the “In Fiction” video, a gallery of hundreds of tour photographs, and a booklet packed with artwork, images, liner notes and lyrics. A precursor to the band’s next full-length, due out in Autumn 2006, the DVD serves to consolidate Isis’ remarkable accomplishments in the post-metal world over the past few years and cement their reputation as foremost innovators in heavy music.

Kaada's second solo long-player, Music For Moviebikers, marks a new development in the Norwegian composer's explorations of cinematic music. The title refers to the theme of the work ' a soundtrack to films that don't exist, continuing in a tradition that includes such diverse luminaries as Barry Adamson and David Holmes. 'I just thought that it was a word that would go well with the theme of the album, which is kind of 'filmatic' music,' he says. Where previous solo outings were dominated by electronics, Kaada has here decided to enlist the services of a 22-strong orchestra, making live recordings in the tomb of a dilapidated church before mixing and adding post-production in the studio. The results are somehow both familiar and unsettling; nestling within his trademark reverb-soaked melancholy atmospheres are Eastern European folk elements, and some input from instruments designed and built by Kaada himself. The eventual results are, in typical Kaada style, not quite like anything he has previously recorded ' or perhaps anyone else, for that matter. One critic has noted that 'Kaada is as eclectic and varied as it gets... there really is no reference point for his work, but there is that element of experimentation and disregard for convention or expectation,' and here the pastoral sensuality of Kaada's delicate compositions bears few obvious sonic similarities with either Cloroform or his previous solo work. His capacity to generate drama and presence, however, is as potent as ever, and critics have gone so far as to suggest that Music For Moviebikers features 'the finest cinematic songs never to have graced a multiplex screen.' Kaada has a remarkable ability to mingle irresistible melodies with innovation and experimentation, and the 'filmatic' genre here serves as the perfect medium for the expression of that magic.

While the genre-mashing In Cod We Trust pulls the aesthetic rug out from under a listener's expectations, one should not fear that they are lost in a pop music sea. Ghostigital fashions an aural forest of Industrial, Bel Canto, Jazz, Rap, 80's New Wave, and Electronic music, just not necessarily in that order or only at one time.

Imagine Ed Wood meets Davie Allen & The Arrows, and they go to a covert Soviet-era studio on the moon. Maybe they bring along Lux Interior of The Cramps for the ride. And a theremin. Strange sounds emerge and are broadcast in Eastern Europe on scratchy old radios. People listen and begin to dance in strange formations. Then they all turn into vampires, or huge flesh-eating robots, and destroy America and Western Europe to the tune of this entrancing, psychotic beat. Or something.

With their new album on Ipecac the band finally embrace repetition, making a drastic departure from this previous work. By turning their unrelenting sound on its head, the duo's astonishing feats of musical skill and acuity become magnified through stamina and subtle evolution. While metal still undeniably influences this music, the new recording equally evokes music from the Middle East and the early minimalism of Tony Conrad. Whatever comes next for Orthrelm is anyone's guess, but one thing is for sure, it will be utterly unpredictable.

"Well... it's a long time ago now that this here little record was recorded. It NEVER was released. This recording is the only document of the original line up of the Melvins. It's from 1983 or so. Mangled demos from 1983. It was a long time ago and you can't expect me to keep all of this bullshit straight. If you want straight facts, too bad... All of these fish stories and hogwash pour out from somewhere in the back of my brain and believe it or not sometimes it pours out askew". BUZZ OSBOURNE

Years in the making, PEEPING TOM is finally a reality! Fearless music pioneer and vocal gymnast, Mike Patton is behind the PEEPING TOM project. It is his most accessible work since his days in Faith No More, presenting his copious collaborative effort during the last few years. PEEPING TOM is an 11-track opus, featuring a lengthy and incongruous cast of guest performers. In keeping with the landmark 1960 psychological horror film that inspired its name, PEEPING TOM had its genesis a modus operandi devoid of physical intimacy. Patton would write songs with a wish list of theoretical collaborators in mind, then hope for a reply in the form of a finished track. "It's an exotic way of working for someone accustomed to a band environment," Patton says. "It was charming, really. None of the usual Animal House stuff. Instead of swapping spit and underwear, we were swapping files." Lack of face-to-face interaction did not keep long-distance collaborators from turning in exceptional performances: Norah Jones' lascivious "Sucker," Kool Keith's "Getaway" and Massive Attack's "Kill The DJ" are intense and passionate as anything a live band could have produced. PEEPING TOM also includes contributions from Amon Tobin (DJ/Artist on Ninja Tune), Bebel Gilberto (smooth Brazilian songstress), Dub Trio (New York-based live Dub Trio), Kid Koala and several of Patton's San Francisco Bay Area running buddies, such as Dan "the Automator" Nakamura (who tag teams with Rahzel on "Mojo") and Jel, Odd Nosdam and Doseone of anticon records. The end result is an utterly unique multi-genre/multi-artist departure from Patton's more recent noisy output - one that would ultimately have to be classified as a pop record - a Mike Patton pop record, but a pop record nonetheless.

Absence recalls the best parts of Public Enemy and the Bomb Squad, the street poetry of KRS-1, the raw beats of Gang Starr and Mobb Deep, and the fearlessness of the avant garde, like Glenn Branca, My Bloody Valentine and Penderecki. If you're used to emcees boasting about their skills, you might miss the history lesson in urban oppression on "A Beast Caged." And if you can't believe that hip hop music can or should be complicated, emotional and breathtaking, you'll probably want to pass over the My Bloody Valentine - drone bliss of "Ever Somber" or the sheer sonic terror behind "In Midst of Struggle." But then again, if you missed all that rest assured MTV will soon pump out another mindless Hip Hop record that you won’t have to worry about. One that won't offend you, or make you think, or challenge your expectations. This is not that record. This is an album of violence, pain and the challenges of life. And they never sounded so good.
