Introducing ‘Only the Youngest Grave’, a double album from Melbourne experimental artist Lost Salt Blood Purges (Michael Snoxall).
Lost Salt Blood Purges explores the disparity of melody and dissonance and how they affect one another. On ‘Only the Youngest Grave’ we journey through almost two hours of varied sonic scenery, from ambient soundscapes, esoteric drones, reflective post-rock passages, and blasts of harsh noise.
This is a minimalist, ritualistic release often departs into unexpected places, and draws from influences as diverse as Kayo Dot, Bohren & der Club of Gore, Mount Eerie, Swans and Godspeed You! Black Emperor.

Hashshashin's music is a bold fusion of sound and style, excitingly blending power with finesse to create sounds from another world. Urgent compositions possessing thunderous speed are swiftly countered by moody passages where darkness lies – each track attracts with unique attributes. Michael Reilly
Beautiful, carefully constructed ambient reflection on decay and loss from Portland producer Graintable; each track has its own life cycle. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 23, 2019

A sonic onslaught, this debut is a winding, complex monster of metallic Prog and Mathy Metal. The incredible accuracy in pulling of daredevil time signatures is all under-pinned by melody and catchy hooks. Take,’ Swagger’, like a Djent band stuck in the studio and vying for control with a particularly raucous version of Lightning Bolt – the precision is jaw-dropping. Elsewhere, I get hints of ‘Power to Believe’ era King Crimson. Fitting, as Serious Beak is a true 21st century schizoid band. Logen Ninefingers
