Lukas Häger's second solo album now available to stream

Lukas Häger's second full-length, "Cithara Soli Vol. 2" - "Nothing But Silence Is Perfect" is now out and available to stream in its compelling entirety on YouTube!

What words can describe such musical poetry? Moving melodies, melancholic passages, strings that touch the listeners deeply, making every note sound like your soul is about to be ripped apart...just listen, and you will know!
The tracklist:

1. "Stiff Meditation Alien"
2. "Even Wisdom Has Teeth"
3. "Pools of Reset"
4. "Irrbloss"
5. "Wedding For Everyone"

The album has been recorded by Lukas and Gottfrid Åhman in Uppsala in 2024.
As previously mentioned, the album will have a limited vinyl edition which will be on sale on Lukas' upcoming European tour with Xasthur, which begins tonight (February 20th) in Stockholm, with a sold out show.

Check out all the upcoming live dates in the Partake section, but first of all press play here below and let this guitar sorcery carry you away with its magick!

Concrete Winds' full show in Perth available online

Perpetrators of aggressive noise torment Concrete Winds are storming across Australia and New Zealand together with Dead Congregation, and a video of their full show live in Perth on February 11th, 2026 is now available on YouTube in all its savage brutality!

What stands out on this one is that it has possibly the best audio quality so far of all the videos appeared online from this current tour, and at times you can really hear those guitars trepanating your ear canals like there's no tomorrow: one more reason to grab your headphones and blast it loud as hell!
