In an older bandcamp Friday post I had written about Estonia's Threes And Will's Lkhumbe as an example of cannibalized psychedelia. In his most recent album Blood River Poort he collaborates with Huerequeque, also from Estonia, in a fucked-up psychedelic acid freak trip informed by Skullflower (eternally upwards guitar astrophysical jets) and also similar to Xazzaz. Seriously deranged stuff, with its concept based on the Boer Wars. Download it on Threes And Will's bandcamp or buy on Love Earth Music.

Bandcamp Friday
Let's take a break from the Gero with some nice stuff on Bandcamp to support on the fee-waive Friday.
Alan Morse Davies - Ys
Working at the crossroads of avant-garde, drone and hypnagogic, Alan Morse Davies has crafted a dense cloud of music that could be considered post-industrial and medieval at the same time. On Submarine Broadcasting Company.
Drekka - Examinations 2016-2018
At times cinematic and at other times claustrophobic, this is really enveloping and mournful dark ambient. On Fabrica.
C. Lavender - Transient Seclusion
Heavy vibrating synths on spaceships. On Longform Editions.
Lush Worker - Serum
Complete zoning session as only Mike Vest of Bong can do. On TQN-aut.
Bolivian Fireships - Untitled
Yet another hazy drone/ambient/tape decay sail by J.G. Sparkes working on his alter ego as Bolivian Fireships. On Hream Recordings.
Threes And Will - Lkhümbe
Heavily badly-tripped combination of noise, zoning psychedelia and kraut by this Estonian guy. Music made by cannibals who got their hands on pedals and mics. On The Level Of Vulnerability.
Haare/VU - Split tape
Some recent Haare was hit-or-miss as it was more focused on harsh noise, but this is spot-one ritual dark ambient with some heavy junk industrial. VU plays foggy and noisy drone/ambient. On Brownhill Mafia.
Time Binding Ensemble - Nothing New Under The Sun
This is fucked up. Inspired by a Catholic seminary, musician Kay Logan processed classical instruments through crumbling tapes to make on of the most hypnagogic albums in recent memory. On Kit Records.
Harry Bertoia - Glowing Sounds
Extremely awesome gong composition recorded at three different speeds. Can't get enough of this. On Important Records.
Nurse With Wound & Aranos - [SIC]
Cavernous and unsettling electroacoustic awesomeness. On United Dairies.
Winged Ma'at - Man Is An Insect
Shit, I already liked Winged Ma'at but this too good. Heavy astral incantations of the old Egyptian gods. Must listen. On Bloxham Tapes.
Reader Advisor - Comical Palliatives for Human Disquiet
Reader Advisor is guitarist Niels Frantz making richly textured ambient drones that can be both uplifting and unsettling. Digital release only.
Fun With Nuns - Fun With Nuns LP
Improv collective from Thessaloniki, Greece doing punkified free jazz. On Wax Records.
Fun With Nuns - Πανήγυριc
Another recording by the same guys showing great improv skills. The sax player and the drummer are beasts! On Amateur Radio.
Controlled Death/Mayuki Hino - Split LP
The One continues to delve into the brain function of cockroaches, while on the other side there's ex-CCCC member Mayuki Hino, bombing with harsh noise stabs. On Cold Spring.
