ALLSEITS is the Solo project of the german instrumentalist Nina Kernicke known from her recent collaboration with German Drone pioneers Troum of which Nina has also been a recent live member of and her work under her other alias, ALLSIDES. The Album "Hel“ describes the way into the underworld, the listener is guided through various stages on the journey down to Hel, the Norse mythological term for hell and also for the goddess Hel who is said to keep watch over the underworld. The journey begins at the foot of Yggdrasil, the world tree, under which the entry to Hel is hidden. We then ride the river Gjöll, that flows along the human world before it runs down to Hel. Gjöll is spanned by the bridge Gjallarbrù which is guarded by Modgudr, a female giant, who decides who can pass the bridge. Leaving Gjallarbrú behind, the large dog Garm that sentinels the gate to Hel is waiting and at his side sits Fjalar, a rooster that will crow to signify the beginning of Ragnarok, the end of the world. After passing Fjalar Hel is finally reached. This allegoric tale is expressed diligently by Kernicke with the use of guitar, bass, drums and skillful sampling creating thick drony layers of deep and solemn emotions.....

KARJALAN SISSIT "Fucking Whore Society" CD (25th Cycle)
At last, Karjalan Sissit return after 4 years of relative silence with their most obscure and harshest work ever. Fucking whore society is an anger and Vodka fueled bombastic opus inspired by the world's psychopathic state. A revolt against the cruel and sickly ways of today’s society and a visceral and personal statement denouncing betrayal. Karjalan Sissit have masterfully expanded their signature sound with dense ambient passages and unsettling vocals all combined with their intensely unique orchestral passages, presenting us their best and most intense work yet. Produced by Peter Bjärgö (Arcana / Sophia)
Edition of 2000 copies In A5 gatefold cardboard sleeve.
10 Tracks. Running Time: 40:10

And finally we are greeted by another splendid release from our dear friend Pär ...we proudly present you;

CITIES LAST BROADCAST "The Cancelled Earth" CD (21st Cycle)
Pär Boström, the man behind the acclaimed project KAMMARHEIT offers us a new and unexpected entity under the name Cities Last Broadcast. The Cancelled Earth album is the result of almost a decade of sporadic field recordings mainly recorded in airports, train stations, various tunnels and under numerous bridges all greatly polished and turned into a refined mass of desolate ambience and subtle hypnosis all engulfed in Pär's legendary signature sound. Uniquely packaged in a gatefold book like format with rich and singular artwork made by Boström himself. Through Cities Last Broadcast the buildings themselves will gather to whisper about their inscrutable story.
Edition of 1000 copies In gatefold A5 cardboard sleeve.
7 Tracks. Running Time: 47:60
Audio Samples: http://www.cycliclaw.com/21stcycle.html

And at last, this monumental album is available again...

KARJALAN SISSIT "Karjalasta Kajahtaa" CD (8th Cycle)
Karjalan Sissit's most acclaimed album is finally available again in it's original format. A venture into total Melancholy, Anti socialism, Bitterness, Disintegration and Alcoholism. Filled with what has defined KARJALAN SISSIT's sound thus far; Bombastic outbursts of classical arrangements entwined in deep industrial sonorities with the odd tough of traditional Finnish Humppa. The songs were this time fiercely enhanced with some added vocals giving the whole album a much more aggressive touch. A milestone in the Martial / Industrial genre.
12 Tracks. Running time; 45:44
Audio Samples: http://www.cycliclaw.com/8thcycle.html

And the unique collaboration of Gustaf Hildebrand and Amanda Votta:

LACUS SOMNIORUM "Tideshaper" (22nd Cycle)
Splendid collaborative work between Gustaf Hildebrand and Amanda Votta, Lacus Somniorum emerged as a mutual desire to convey a suggestive concept of what lies hidden and unseen by the eyes of modern civilization--beneath the waves in murky chasms, or perhaps in places not anchored within our concept of reality. Airy flutes and choirs hover above sometimes distant, rumbling sound textures, hinting of corroded machinery and unseen presences but also emphasizing a sense of serenity and peace of mind. The underlying concept is not fear of the unknown, but rather of a hidden beauty within those places where none of us will ever venture.
Edition of 1000 copies In fold out gatefold cardboard sleeve.
8 Tracks. Running Time: 55:80
Audio Samples: http://www.cycliclaw.com/22ndcycle.html

:Recent Releases:

THOLEN 'Sternklang' CD (20th Cycle)
Sternklang is the expression of the intimate encounter with the whole, the direct connection with the stars and the vast universe, the sense of complete union with all the overdimensional attributes of what sourrounds us. With THOLEN, Eisen, the man behind this project has given us an aurally materialized glimpse of his numerous stargazing evenings...where the soundscapes are revealed while the stars seemed to gather and sing out of their primordial and powerful environment. The darkest hour is always the one before sunrise...
In fold out gatefold cardboard sleeve.
1Track. Running Time: 1:11:07
Audio Samples: http://www.cycliclaw.com/20thcycle.html

SINKE DUS 'Akrasia' CD (19th Cycle)
Akrasia is an old question dealing with the weakness of the will. To behave 'akratically' is when one acts against his better judgement, committing acts that are known to be wrong but yet still going through with the motion. Markus Lonebrink wanted to explore not so much the philosophical issues at hand, but rather the subjective experience of akrasia itself. To learn of the underlying motives of when one acts akratically. Certain events in the akratic process felt natural to him and it was those he tried to integrate into these soundscapes. There are no conclusions described in the music, but there might be a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel and perhaps the shadow of a hint of why we humans sometimes act as irrationally as we do. A shared quest to gain better knowledge of oneself through this self-revisionistic ambient journey filled with ethereally lush passages that give way to a truly visionary and immersive experience.
The album also features a special collaboration with Par Bostrom of KAMMARHEIT.
In fold out gatefold cardboard sleeve.
7 Tracks. Running Time: 45:50
