We are very excited to announce an upcoming collaborative release between our boy, Speak Onion, and good buddy, Mercy Choir. These two have decided to work together and that the best format for them to collaborate would be for Speak Onion to record and heavy-handedly produce a few of Mercy Choir’s songs. We are expecting Mercy Choir’s psychadelic folk to sit interestingly, if uncomfortably, with Speak Onion’s rough, soundscape-y production style. Or perhaps, Speak Onion will bring nasty textures to Mercy Choir’s quirky compositions. Ok, honestly, we don’t know what’s going to happen, but we know these two madmen spent a Saturday together making sounds, and we’re pretty pumped up about it.
The final product will be co-released by us here at I.B.N. and the good people at Dead Language Records. Downloads will ensue.
Stay tuned for more updates! There are more pics in the Visuals section.

I have some fun ‘insider’ comments for you all which gets the hype-machine going as well as elevating our mystique to “Leviathan”-era Mastodon proportions:
Thermometeromter – Who measures the measurers?
Dunejam was recorded on an actual dune.
Speak Onion – Metabolor
Dan still won’t tell me where he got the harp, piano & string samples on the last track of this one.
Magical Penis Thief – A rabbit pooped in his arms
Most of the song titles for this came from bathroom graffiti in a bar.
Headless Nameless – Lowlight Encampment
Most of the sounds are from a 1989 drum machine + Gameboy.
Thermometerometer – In the furniture factory
Recorded in a factory right across the street from where Nas used to live.
Decanting the Bloodwhore – Evenloped In The Dreaded Anguish Of Ancients
Archaeological evidence indicates that eating licorice-covered watermelon seeds is part of what made the members of this band so hateful and nihilistic during the making of this record.
Go download these in the releases section!!

Enveloped In The Dreaded Anguish Of Ancients is the only Decanting The Bloodwhore recording known to have been unearthed to date. The hateful members of the band would surely vow murder upon us for releasing it and any who hear the sounds it contains. So while we at Immigrant Breast Nest hesitate to bring this supremely disgusting record to light, and do so at our own peril, it is clear that this horrid form of black metal must be exposed, no matter the consequences.
The extreme darkness of Decanting The Bloodwhore’s music is sure to result in horrible madness in many who hear it, but the power of these tracks cannot be denied. These tracks writhe and squirm, imbued with an eternity of rotten misanthropy, only to explode with maddening fury. It is unlikely that black metal has ever been so truly grymmn as the blasts and dirges found herein. You will likely find yourself suffocating in the claustrophobic riffs and pummeled by immense drums, while the vocals fester and ooze hatred into your very being. Decanting The Bloodwhore will have their vengeance one way or another.

Amid clouds of sawdust, Thermometerometer recorded these four tracks live in a Queens, NY furniture factory. Inspired by the skeletal rows of unfinished furniture & the constant urban clatter pouring in from the street, T-MOM explores a more experimental zone: dust-covered squelches & throbs, drones & screams resonating throughout the immense space. Thermometerometer captures the life of the factory and lays it at your feet.

Inspired by the first stirrings of industrial music, Jamaican dub, and contemporary glitch styles, Headless Nameless presents this debut E.P., Lowlight Encampment. Dark dubs as soundtrack for chasing the dragon. Primitive electronics bent and broken into unfamiliar shapes. Bass thump punching into animal yowl. Old & dirty with a fresh step nonetheless.
Derek Tibs (CEO, Immigrant Breast Nest)
Magical Penis Thief’s debut E.P., A rabbit pooped in his arms, cobbles together a bevy of electronic instruments and effects units to create a strange form of sonic juju. The conjured sounds function as familiars: 8-bit aliens, ghosts hiding inside square-waves, robotic gnomes. Rhythms appear & disintegrate, each one populated by its own host of spirits. Magical Penis Thief brings new life to old sounds and pink drinks to new sounds. Enjoy!

Metabolor is Speak Onion’s attempt to stake out a spot at the triple-point between noise, breakcore, and dark ambient. These 6 tracks full of breaks, basses, and noise screams can explode almost any party into a real goddamn mess. Coming from Queens, NY’s very own purveyor of drum’n’noise, Speak Onion, this slab of noisy goodness is his most focused material to date, settling into a dark and confrontational style that is definitively his own. Bringing broken grooves with massive basslines while noise elements stab and swirl, Meatbolor abstractly deals in images of life its mechanics. Organic basses squelch as they are digested, and beats are continually broken down and resequenced, separated and recombined. The simultaneous impossibility and inevitability of life as it exists are reflected as the final product, Metabolor, Speak Onion’s deliberate mess.

Thermometerometer gets shapes. All kinds of shapes. Immigrant Breast Nest brings their first release, Who measures the measurers, to you, all full up with the kind of shapes that make you scratch your head or do a dance. If you looked at it through a giant microscope, you would see some doom shapes and get a disease! Drones, bonks, throbs, flips, slaps, and screams propel this record onward, or sometimes backwards. Along the way, Thermometerometer poke and prod inside some sounds looking for the next noise or beat that will fit into their messy basket. They are building one thing out of another thing. From the driving hard rhythms of Centrifuge Party to the abstract noise of Trapezoid at best and the drone screams of Dunejam, T-MOM are tossing out some weird junk for your ears.
