Highlighting Recent Releases in Preparation for Activity to come

First off, Veil of Thorns have pushed out an impromptu EP - Deteriorated Moons
Getting apocalyptic and cryptically promising that a key to the hypersigil that makes up their entire discography is to be found therein.


 Choronzon released Egregore Manifest Destiny, a slice of cut-up theory fiction hidden in layers of noise and psychedelia.
 

Egregore (also egregor) is an occult concept representing a "thoughtform" or "collective group mind", an autonomous psychic entity made up of, and influencing, the thoughts of a group of people. The symbiotic relationship between an egregore and its group has been compared to the more recent, non-occult concepts of the corporation (as a legal entity) and the meme. 
Eliphas Lévi, in Le Grand Arcane ("The Great Mystery", 1868) identifies "egregors" with the tradition concerning the "Watchers", the fathers of the nephilim, describing them as "terrible beings" that "crush us without pity because they are unaware of our existence."
Last summer P. Emerson Williams was at NecronomiCon, Providence for a performance with Godflesh and Morne. The sounds he recorded in praparation were gathered and released as the NecronomiCon Sessions.



Upon returning from NecronomiCon 2019, I feel like letting the recordings of guitar improvisations and the two spoken word sections I bellowed out. It was a great experience to bring this unique performance to NecronomiCon 2019, a concept from Jarboe which also included Kris De La Force and Brett Robinson, each person bringing their own sonic magick to the proceedings.

Choronzon - Hyperstition


Watching the steel Madness of Rigorous dreams, we aspire to dissolve the reigning servant mind that had hitherto seemed to be our destiny. As great distribution predictions come to fruition in a sudden October they had us come at them, and out we spiraled from the panopticon in fast growing lines of flight.

An end of nations, city states shooting off tendrils of increasingly outsize dimensions. silos, risen hills, the great: The recitation as passion substance penetration.

We Conclude The Year With Choronzonic Sonics

Little has been heard from the mighty Choronzon since ///Consummation//\\Metanoia\\\, their last full-length which was released in 2012. We've threaded thee Wyrm through services and systems and those who hath understanding could reckon the end of the slumber of the Beast...
Here's what will make your season chaotically festive:
Arcanum \är-ˈkā-nəm\ 1 : mysterious or specialized knowledge, language, or information accessible or possessed only by the initiate 2 : elixir 3 : secret 

Chao \ˈkā-ˌä\ 1 : complete confusion and disorder : a state in which behavior and events are not controlled by anything, a state of things in which chance is supreme; especially : the confused unorganized state of primordial matter before the creation of distinct forms — the state of the universe before there was any order and before stars and planets were formed b : the inherent unpredictability in the behavior of a complex natural system (as the atmosphere, boiling water, or the beating heart) c : a confused mass or mixture [a chaos of television antennas]


From before and outside time as pure potential, manifest beneath and througout every phenomenon of existence and the medium that only through which any action being is possible. What is encoded within these sounds is hidden from those who have no direct experience in working the current of chaos, but for the initiated, the keys to the mysteries are extended with a generous proffering hand. With Arcanum Ab Chao, Baleyyg and Choronzon come together to open up a sonic space that clears away the veneer of control to show the chaos of destruction and creation hid within. Fans of Choronzon will remember the arcane and intense material Baleyyg contributed to the 2012 Choronzon release ///Consummation//\\ Metanoia\\\.
"For this split-release with Choronzon we have provided 1 monolithic track, 35 minutes in length, titled 'Stemmeløse'." states Baleyyg, "The translation of this word from Norwegian into English means 'Voiceless'. We have never attempted to define or render any sort of explanation of the sonic narratives within Baleyyg material. The inner-secret to the experience is to let oneself follow the sound-art where it shall lead, one shall know when the portals open and are 'activated' when the many other layers and hidden elements within the track come into "view" as one experiences it."

"We have done very few split releases through the years", says Choronzon chaote P. Emerson williams, "but when we do we see it as a way of combining with artists to create a work that in total is more than a sum of its parts. Arcanum Ab Chao continues this practice and takes it further."

Back in September we brought out Revelations Of Power, one new track, one cryptovox call from across the Abyss and an instrumental teaser from a monumental future Choronzon release.
Revelations Of Power is a transmission from the depths of the Abyss, in the form of a storm of cryptovox, organic sounds and techno-filtration. Herein is a holographic encapsulation of the 333 hypersigil as manifest thus far and what is to be added in future.

Lastly, we obtained a newly digitized set of Choronzon's untitled 1996 demo that was later released on CD as "333". Lovingly ripped by a fan and we decided a couple new tracks should be added to the PANICMACHINE version. We are proud to bring you 333 (Carnage Of Thought Edition!

In this edition listeners get to hear these tracks as only those who had the original 1996 tapes have heard it. Hear Choronzon bringing the electronic invocations at a time when such experiments were extremely rare.

A Lord of Chaos, Choronzon (whose cabalistic number is 333), has been following me around for a while, ever since I summoned him forth, in the shadow state between dreams and waking. It’s disturbing when something from the land of Morpheus breaks through, and you get a tape from a local band that has named itself (coincidently, of course) after the very demon who has been wreaking havoc in your life. Choronzon (the band) is P. Emerson Williams, also of Veil of Thorns, and he obviously knows the occult arts. I’m assuming he’s a Thelemite, because one of the songs is called “Perdurabo”, a pseudonym of Aleister Crowley’s. 
In any case, the music is HEAVY. thick, dark and raging. The songs are a caustic liquid, dripping from my speakers like rivers of fire, howling and shrieking in anger and torment. Drum beats loop on top of one another, twisting themselves into a rope that the music can climb on (although I’m looking forward to when Williams gets a live drummer(s), because for all the creative intricacies in the music, the rhythms are too mechanical at times). 
Dense guitar crunch permeates the album, throwing a few technical metal riffs, and the vocals seem to have been ripped from the throat of 333 himself. 
If you want to delve into the world of unconscious terror, or think that you’ve heard the deepest and heaviest metal has gotten, get this tape. But be prepared for little “accidents” to follow you around for a while.

PTAHIL - POSSESSED BY DEATH - New Video!!!



Official Music Video for the song, Possessed by Death from the release, The Almighty Propagator of Doom and Despair through Wraith Productions 12/21/12.

PTAHIL - "For His Satanic Majesty's Glory" CD $10.00 + S&H



Conceived from the minds of multi-instrumentalists Mhaghnuis and Luathca, PTAHIL manifest their uncompromising debut, "For His Satanic Majesty's Glory". Composed and recorded in complete adversarial ritual, "For His Satanic Majesty's Glory" is a transmigration through chaotic boundaries never before unveiled and an imposing assault of Satanic Black/Punk/Doom Metal on the senses.

Absolutely enthralling grooving blackness with many twisted facets that form a whole as integrated and infernal as it is evil. Enough to shake the ground beneath Bohemian Grove and show who really conspires to create Hell on Earth!

Coming Up: CHORONZON - Era Vulgaris Kali Yuga Edition




ERA VULGARIS remains one of the most notorious of all CHORONZON albums. The natural successor to MAGOG AGOG, their debut (we have the last remaining copies...), with a palpable alien presence throughout that snapped some necks at the time. Thee hallz ov blackmetal at the time were not fortified to handle the vibrations of this futuristic black industrial assault, but the few, the brave sought out its sounds. But even fewer heard all the tracks from the sessions for ERA VULGARIS, some of which were released in an exceedingly rare CD as LARVAE. Copies of ERA VULGARIS go for $40.00 or more, copies of LARVAE are closely guarded and held on to as are copies of the special 2xCD + book edition of PANIC PANDEMIC.

This evening we are adding the track for disc two of this the ERA VULGARIS KALI YUGA EDITION to our digital store and have opened up for pre-sales. The finishing touches are being put on the accompanying art/lyric/grimoire book for print and ebook editions. The download version directly from PANICMACHINE will contain the ebook and an extensive number of videos and pre-sale purchases of double CD and/or print book come with free download of the album and as with all CD sales this month, you get free download tickets for any of our digital releases through the end of July!

HILLS OF SEFIROTH - "Fly High The Hated Black Flag" CD

HILLS OF SEFIROTH - "Fly High The Hated Black Flag" CD $10.00 + S&H
Upon the eve of 2004's "Of Disease and Desperation", HILLS OF SEFIROTH execute the most involved release to date. Ten hymns of fierce intolerant ancient Black Metal are presented on "Fly High the Hated Black Flag", a must have for HILLS OF SEFIROTH fans! Bleed yourself dry of Purity...

ABSONUS NOCTIS - "Penumbral Inorgantia" CD

ABSONUS NOCTIS - "Penumbral Inorgantia" CD $10.00 + S&H
"Penumbral Inorgantia" is a chronicling of a man's journey to ancient underground kingdoms haunted by the inhuman entities that once dwelt therein. He must seek their arcane instruments to rid earth of all organic life after sinking into the abysmal pools of their souls to shed his human frame and assume an elevated, blackened, and immortal state of being, enabling him to eternally reign over the desolation he has created. Each song represents a specific stage in his journey and shall consequently engulf the listener in an experience of metamorphosis into inhumanity.

WOLFSHADE – “Trouble” CD

WOLFSHADE – “Trouble” CD $10.00 + S&H
This CD is one that is in constant rotation here at PANICMACHINE Towers, its gorgeous melancholy entrancing more with its tragic agony with each listen. Highly recommended!!! 


WOLFSHADE is a one-man project led by Kadhaas who takes the listener on enigmatic oneiric demiurgic journeys. WOLFSHADE has previously released one full-length opus entitled "Evening Star..." and has now created one of the most progressive demiurgic albums known to mankind "Trouble". "Trouble" is an album very different from WOLFSHADE's past efforts which draws the path of life harmonized by the mystery of creation, the mystery of existence. This album was spontaneously written by a sure heavenly strength. It plunges us into the transcending universe of life, unsuspected and phenomenal.

NENAVIST – “Nenavist” CD

NENAVIST – “Nenavist” CD $10.00 + S&H
The debut full length of Bulgaria's NENAVIST. NENAVIST is a vision of the disintegration of the Human, a burst of instinct, a work of isolation and loathing for the man-ruin and the pathetic world of "progress". Death.

Highly-recommended for diehard fans of early BURZUM, JUDAS ISCARIOT, and ILDJARN!

SEJTANE – “The Burning Cold” CD

SEJTANE – “The Burning Cold” CD $10.00 + S&H
A new creature by Moonbeam and Malignant of the well known Italian band Iblis, SEJTANE is a reunion of their black souls. Moonbeam and Malignant present their debut album under the banner of SEJTANE entitled "The Burning Cold". "The Burning Cold" is their most definitive and coldest work to date. SEJTANE sinks into the deep roots and depths of pure, merciless, and rough old school black metal. Expect to be overwhelmed by the purest essence of evil! Let "The Burning Cold" embrace you...

UNDERDARK – “Who is your Master?” CD

UNDERDARK – “Who is your Master?” CD $10.00 +S&H
"Who is your Master?" is an experimental album. Using music that conveys Amorth's emotions, "Who is your Master?" is filled with common themes such as the influence of secret societies bringing on the world's order and the insignificance of the human perception and self-appraisal. Also to note, Ukrainian noise musician havoc1986 has joined Amorth in the creation of "Who is your Master?". "Who is your Master?" is a conceptual ambient landscape flavored with intelligent dance/downtempo or even noise elements. Spoken samples from avant-garde films such as "Stalker", "Dust", and "Four" have been used on the album. They make it unique in many aspects, turning the album into an easy and transparent narration-journey through the basements of consciousness and other digital woods of a depressive being. Surely, "Who is your Master?" is an album that musically contrasts with the previous works of UNDERDARK but does not contradict the ideological message of each release thus far. This time it is just passed in an allegorical form using selected samples.

WOLFSHADE – “When Above...” CD

WOLFSHADE – “When Above...” CD $10 + S&H
Esoteric and mysterious, WOLFSHADE explore hitherto uncharted terrain on third full-length When Above…, an introspective voyage into bleak solitude and haunted resignation. Seven mournful, organic lamentations escort the listener to an altered state of mind, ushered there by hypnotic, trance-like odes to birth, regeneration, uncreation and (ultimately) demise. This time, founding muse Kadhaas is joined by like-minded acolyte Samigina on the mystical journey, culminating in a new atmosphere for WOLFSHADE that is at once claustrophobic yet strangely comforting. The powerful and poignant paeans instinctively daub their despairing tones across a rich and varied Black Metal canvas, evoking a myriad of hues, moods, shades and textures. Mostly dark greys and blacks … shrouded in shadow … shimmering and shifting beneath a pale moonlight; always somber and reflective, acknowledging and accepting the fragility and transience of all things. This is music for the famished, betrayed, disillusioned soul. It will wash over you in cold waves, take your breath away, strip you bare and leave you begging for more. Surrender to the impending onset of melancholy; embrace the emptiness; cede to your inevitable, irreversible fate. In the end, we are all alone.

PTAHIL - "For His Satanic Majesty's Glory" CD

PTAHIL - "For His Satanic Majesty's Glory" CD $10.00 + S&H

Conceived from the minds of multi-instrumentalists Mhaghnuis and Luathca, PTAHIL manifest their uncompromising debut, "For His Satanic Majesty's Glory". Composed and recorded in complete adversarial ritual, "For His Satanic Majesty's Glory" is a transmigration through chaotic boundaries never before unveiled and an imposing assault of Satanic Black/Punk/Doom Metal on the senses.
