Split C30 with Torturing Nurse (905 Tapes) - $6
A merciless, bi-continental team up of two horribly unyielding units. representing china is torturing nurse in the three piece form of jiadie, youki, and junky. anyone familiar with tn's mangled gerogerigegege meets a meat grinder style knows what they are in for. a non-stop, pounding, fucked up back alley ballad complete with violent as hell screams and amplified vomit. it's gonna get everywhere, i promise. wasteland jazz unit hail from the good old usa (cincinnati, oh if you want to get technical) and somehow manage to pull off the same ferocious carnage while using a saxophone and clarinet? what!? yes! overly abused wind instruments intentionally doing what was never intended. a piercing and harsh masterpiece.

--Ryan Jewell/C. Spencer Yeh/Wasteland Jazz Unit - - Ohio Ghastly Soil CDR - (DREAMSHEEP)

Sounding like Laddio Bolocko playing Aufgehoben’s songs, this amazing quartet shares a seriously mindblowing connection with the huge underground noise scenary in the United States. This half-an-hour free-form session between these Ohio-based dudes is a long electroshock torture which features Yeh (experimental violinist/electronic musician with a highly growing reputation around the world) playing bass here, Jewell (experimental drummer/electronic musician also involved in Pink Reason and Psychedelic Horseshit) on drums/electronic junk and John Rich/Jon Lorenz (Wasteland Jazz Unit) totally immersed in a hyper-amplified and nihilistic sax playing. File under sparkling brutality. CDR comes in a limited edition of 200 copies.

35 tracks in 69 minutes! Rippers and Creepers is an eclectic mixtape and aural document featuring a killer clutch of underground artists, a snapshot of the “grotesque sounds of now”. Each group/artist contributes one short two-minute piece that either "rips" or "creeps" based on their own interpretation. The tracks compiled have been collaged and stitched together to make one long continuous track on each side of the tape resulting in a non-interrupted journey beyond the fringe. Curated and with artwork by Todd Brooks, Rippers and Creepers is a part of Pendu Org’s continued efforts to promote “esoteric ostranenie of contemporary weirdo culture”. This is first in a series that will be released quarterly. Rippers and Creepers Mixtape Vol. 2 will come out in June.

Wasteland Jazz Unit - untitled C-30 $7 (Epicene) - OOP
"Cincinnati duo of Jon Lorenz on saxophone and John Rich on clarinet… so far they have pending releases on Community College and Outfall Channel, and a collaboration with Demonologist on deck… as well as having collaborated live with Organs, Teeth Collection, C. Spencer Yeh, Ryan Jewel, D.B.H. and members of This Moment In Black History and Blunder Children. This is annihilating gorilla free jazz, total butcher style! Like Borbetomagus amped up on meth and the 'brown' acid. Added bonus track not mentioned in the cover called 'How’s Your Head?'"

Split w/ Concrete Arteries (Community College) - OOP
"During December of 1979 in Cincinnati, eleven people were killed in a mass panic prior to seeing The Who at the Coliseum. Twenty-eight years later, Wasteland Jazz Unit resurrect that trepidation with scathing, soaked and blistering free-jazz aural assaults. Mutilating ear drums and minds alike. Side B finds Concrete Arteries (Jon Lockhart [ex-To-Night Golden Curls, Kvlt Of Unicron]) violating listeners with his hazed creeper jams. Savage vocals from the Gem City. Dying beats drowning in the ghosts of the 1913 flood, this is the Dayton sound you've been warned about."
