Gordon Wilson Ashworth seems to be one of the most interesting and active musicians to emerge out of the US scene in recent times. Constantly recording, touring, and evolving his music Ashworth may seem all over the map at first glance, but a closer look reveals a logical and detailed progression with a clear artistic vision. The interview below seeks to provide some insight into Ashworth’s past, present, and future work.

Musique Machine just published a new review of Xiphoid Dementia – Might is Blight CD which has been added to the press page and is still available from the shop.

Scrape Tapes
Here’s a sexy little 3 incher from England’s prodigal son Tommuel Reynolds. This is the first full release I have heard from Content Nullity and it is no suprise to me that the sound here is absolutely beautifully layered death industrial noise.

It’s the sounds on the disc though, that really do rise above the expectations set by the outer packaging.
A slow rhythmic dirge quickly kicks in mixed with high pitched wailing …
