Human Extinction Engine now on BandCamp
July 3rd, 2020
Human Extinction Engine the split LP with Bastard Noise is now live on the Xiphoid Dementia BandCamp page.
Originally released on Scry Recordings, Existence Establishment, Terror, and Phage Tapes February 2019. Human Extinction Engine is a split record between the throttling yet textured death industrial of Xiphoid Dementia and the harsh space ambience of Bastard Noise.

May 1st, 2020
Released as a CD on Malignant Records in 2012 Secular Hymns is the follow up to Xiphoid Dementia’s landmark sophomore offering Might Is Blight.

Moving somewhere in between dark-ambient and industrial-noise “Secular Hymns” is an opus that catches the attention for its impressive arsenal of sounds and noises that have been used. But the main characteristic of the release concerns the global …
Xiphoid Dementia – Prison of Hope LP Reviews
April 30th, 2020
From Phameless Zine:
Equal parts terrifying and beautiful, this album is an assault on the ears in all of the best ways – pounding relentlessly while managing to remain musical and carry a sense of motion. A build of aggression slathered in distortion and echo builds the title track to a point of orchestral explosion and denouement, leaving space to awake and escape in the mechanical dungeon of “ Essence Concussion” – continuing the lush soundtrack to a nightmare.
This album deserves good headphones – or more so, you deserve to hear …

Tovarish – Road of Bones
Tovarish is a Soviet-inspired doom/drone/noise band from Rhode Island (USA). The band is asked often, “Is it normal to want to kill myself after listening to you?” And the answer is, simply, “Yes.” There is no hope. There is no salvation. There is only Tovarish.
Often drawing comparisons to artists such as Sunn O))), Nortt, and SPK, Tovarish’s aesthetic evokes the majestic horror of war and the glory of the state through riffs played so slowly as to trouble the line between …

Xiphoid Dementia appearance on Sky Burial’s “There I Saw the Grey Wolf Gaping”
September 30th, 2012
“There I Saw The Grey Wolf Gaping” marks a return to the shorter compostions which comprised Sky Burial’s first few releases. These tracks reflect the width and breadth of sounds which inspire Sky Burial’s brand of sonic eclecticism, from kosmische/krautrock, music concrete, and early industrial to shoegaze, ambient/drone, and avant-garde composers. Athough inspired by diverse genres, Sky Burial has created a cohesive sound of its own, often citing esoteric and mythological subject matter as a muse. This album features guest artists Danny Hyde (Coil), Jarboe, Anni Hogan (Marc and The …
