Australian label OSCL announces 3 new releases out simultaneously in U.S. this fall



 Australian management/label OSCL announces U.S. domestic releases from three of its flagship artists this fall. These include CD/LP/Downloads from Melbourne dark synth & theremin heavyweights  The Night Terrors, leaden pop riff masters Gatherer and haunting minimalist duo A Dead Forest Index

Listen to and share sample tracks from all three artists:

The Night Terrors "Monster" (MP3 HERE)
Gatherer "Regular Frontier" (MP3 HERE) 
A Dead Forest Index "Distance" (MP3 HERE) (VIDEO)

Melbourne's Night Terrors feature vintage horror synths, breakneck rhythms and the haunting theremin melodies of Miles Brown (student of Russian theremin queen Lydia Kavina). They offer a mind-melting mix of dark soundtrack magic, thunderous dreamscapes and other-worldly electronica. Their Monsters/Lasers For Eyes 12"/CD/Download is out September 18th on OSCL Records.

Gatherer has drawn on a combination of life experiences and influences, cohesively blending the pop sensibilities of Nine Inch Nails, the genuine melodic rock of Cave-Inand a hint of Torche inspired heaviness with the vocal rhythms and melody of Queen. Their album So Be It hits the states on the Red Tape Records imprint via OSCL on September 18th. 

Melbourne based A Dead Forest Index are brothers Adam and Sam Sherry, forming a minimalist two piece. Drawing on elements centered around rhythmic pulls and washes of vocals, the guitar and percussion clatters in and around measured structures that can end abruptly, or drift into tapping decrescendos where the harmony finds a resolution. Their album Antique offers a fresh new sound which should please fans of a mixture of Scott Walker, Chelsea Wolfe, Einstürzende Neubauten, Bela Bartok or Dead Can Dance. Released on Denovali Records, in conjunction with OSCL
