Meanwhile,
regarding SSHE RETINA STIMULANTS , URASHIMA has just re-issued on
vinyl LP "KRIONIKA SOSHIKI", originally released by
Slaughter on cassette.
Another
truly major URASHIMA re-issue project is on-going, that is the

shape of two 3xLP box sets, one with the Italian acts (SSHE RETINA
STIMULANTS, IUGULA-THOR, MURDER CORPORATION, ATRAX MORGUE,
DISCORDANCE, DIKTAT) and one with the U.S. ones (SURGICAL STAINLESS
STEEL, SLOGUN, TAINT, SKIN CRIME, DEATHPILE, BACILLUS).... everything
re-mastered for wax by P.NG5361.B.

the "BIO-CONCRETE IMPLOSION ON THE EAST SIDE" CD, an
archival release of the first ever SSHE RETINA STIMULANTS

On
a longer timeframe, INFLUENCING MACHINE RECORDS, as anticipated, is
also planning a vinyl LP re-issue of SSHE RETINA STIMULANTS’ s
"KUSA'I", originally released by GROSS on cassette.
Recordings

progressing and plans for releases are being refined with BLOODLUST!.
In
a few months URASHIMA will also reissue on vinyl LP the IUGULA-THOR /
SSHE RETINA STIMULANTS "WRIST" split, originally released
on CD by Ant Zen.

RECORDS the album is now coming out for OHM RESISTANCE.
Coming
in 2014 on VITAL RECORDS is also “NOTHING” a dark ambient album
recorded by Eraldo, together with HENRIK NORDVARGR BJRKK.

Archibald on drums.
From
November 6th to 13th Eraldo will be in Budapest working on METALLIC
TASTE OF BLOOD second album, while February 2014 will finally see a
new cd coming out for ANODIZE, called “OMNIPRESENCE” and under
Eraldo' s own name... it’s a live ambient album, entirely
improvised at Darren Bergstein place in NJ...nothing was prepared,
everything was flowing... Petulia Mattioli did the live visuals... a
moment in time that will never come back and incidentally the first
cd ever bearing only Eraldo's name.
