“Sacro Bosco” (“Sacred Grove”) is the starting point for Anna von Hausswolff’s new album “All Thoughts Fly”, incoming on Southern Lord on September 25th, 2020. Here in solo instrumental mode, the entire record consists of just one instrument, the pipe organ, and represents absolute liberation of the imagination.

Worcester, Massachusetts-based avant electronics project The Oracle will release its debut full-length debut “Hypogeum” this August, via Repose Records.
 
Inspired at once by the grandiosity of film scores and classical music, the bleakness of black metal, and minimalist ambient music, “Hypogeum” is dark and at times ritualistic with its themes and complimentary visuals touching upon the rise and fall of messiah-like figures and cult leaders.
 

“Reigning Cement”, an audio-visual project pairing a 100-page book of Jesse Draxler’s photography and collage work with a collection of music created by musicians handpicked by Draxler, arrives on September 4th, 2020, via Federal Prisoner.
