The Poise - Visceral EP

This band came up to my label and submitted me to release their very first ep. I took a listen and this has the taste of The Jesus and the mary chain, Ride and Joy Division. It's a really sweet garage/dream pop band with post punk influences. Definitely worth checking out.

V Sabo / Shum split

This mentally nauseating split made by two hungarians V Sabo and Shum sums up pretty difficult to almost everyone in this world. With V Sabo's Sterunbtex, we are driven to the point of chaos and insanity, then we get mercilessly butchered by the hands of Shum and left to die. Possibly the toughest to sit through, but certainly the best to ever put out of.

Cady - Isle of Flowers

One of the England's fantabulous screamo bands is more than happy to be featured on our page, with granted permission. Cady plays blackened emoviolence with the likes of June Paik and Neil Perry.

Urge - S/t

Really sweet italian screamo takes a dark approach in La Quiete, making it more desperate and destructive. This is what makes it so powerful. Not to miss out.

Aaron & Natty - Aaron & Natty's 2k16 Noise/Folk Jamboree

A good friend Natty asked me to release this, so i decided to check it out a bit and it's pretty fun. Aaron & Natty made it for fun, and that's something i like about this. Tensions and boiling blood aside, this might cheer you up a bit.

Mr. Hammer - Humans are Scum EP

Chree Kingslayer's (ex-drummer of The Number Twelve Looks Like You) side project that has come out a long time ago in myspace, decided that i release it on CSR. Frankly, i think it deserves to be there. Cause of absurdity, hopelessness and hatred painted in every music sheet, every scribbled word on the sketchbook. It's what we feel inside. Cheesy, yet definitely worth checking it out.

Social Drift - Walls?

What happens when you go to the zone where you suddenly have your ears explode till you can't hear no more? That's what this cover and this entire 15 minutes is all about. Tho, obvious question mark in the titles makes it seems like a really strange dream. Nevertheless, sleep tight.

2nd Compilation!!!

This month is April. One two months away... This means we have the time to start a CSR's 2nd compilation! I know, i am excited too! All you need to do is to follow the rules under:

- Wav file always.

- HNW / Noise running time: 5 - 9 mins.

- Lyrics, links & info.

The deadline will be in 15th June, the same day we released our first compilation. The email is stojiljkovic.filip2@gmail.com

See you there!

November / December / Happy New Year!

Shit! Sorry for a horribly long delay. I haven't done anything for this blog during november/december times. I've had other stuff to do... Anyways, let's continue.

NOVEMBER

Sueisntfine/Fatal Position Split

Beasty noisecore from USA Fatal Position has come to terms with my one man powerviolence Sueisntfine. F.p. haven't changed a bit, they're still loud and they're still fucked up. mine is a bit different from my previous releases. It has this sort of The Locust vibe tho it's more likely stripped down. All my 6 songs are made from Garageband (this is my first try yo).

WAAS / Cult of Pythagoras

my WAAS's single split with my dear friend Olin's Cult of Pythagoras. A single share of drowsy sci-fi atmosphere that we have ever composed.

I Tried To Smell A Flower, But The Petals Scraped my Corneas Out - First Demo

Here's this rad one man aussie skramz coming from melbourne. 4 tracks of lo-fi acoustic skramz. This project only has this and a couple of songs and is now dead.

WAAS / Raven

This is by far, the most impressive thing i have ever done. The second track is my favorite. Pure chaos, delusions and paranoia.

DECEMBER

Raven - Idiots Parade

After my split with Raven, he had decided for me to release another thing, and that is this unforgivable 5-min track called Idiots Parade. A must listen.

Brunettes - These Words Will Become Duller With Each One I Write

Post-hardcore/Screamo from Boston, Massachussets, USA. Two tracks of radness. What else can i say?

Telekom Basketball - Demo

Gee, what's this? A nice, noisy, lo-fi emotive hardcore from Finland? A bit filthy, but sounds really promising.

Bitchslap / Nekro Batica - Procreation of Nothingness

Antonio Jovanovic, the author behind two of these projects, decided to put them for this precious split. Bitchslap here displays, like its previous ep, weird electronic dance music, as if its like a video game music. Nekro Batica, on the other hand, takes Silent Hill as an influence for its dark ambient landscape.

での受ので - Killed All My Sweet Kittens

Imagine if this was Vaporwave, but only on children's songs and then add a bunch of random noises and then play it out loud for the entire city streets to go mad randomly. This is what it's like.

Flooducti - Immunotherapy

This was supposed to be the last release of John's Noise Records, but the label is still going so, no. It's not the last. Flooducti produces three tracks of industrial, nightmarish psychological journeys.

Los Que Perdonan - Tormento

Dancy, indie-rock influenced screamo from Argentina. 3 tracks of raw, punk music.

Chronic Fatigue - Demo

Angsty as fuck hardcore punk from Umeå, Sweden.

Droux und Gisg - Demo 2015

Sick as fuck cybergrind from Umeå, Sweden. 2 tracks made as a one man band, more tracks with more members will be here soon.

Destined - Growing

After their full length album "Many a Moon", 90's emo Destined decided to release one more time in 2015, and it's their three track ep "Holding". Three tracks of poetic beauty. It just goes to show that you can still be original without the help of La Dispute and Touche Amore. You can just go your way and this band proves it.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!

I wish you all a happy new year everyone!!!!!!

July 2015

So, the releasing thing has just started today. Here are the releases in the following order:

- WeAreAllSlaves / Rezeegtnuk - You Can Only Get Mad Once
A Noise split between my project from Belgrade, Serbia (WeAreAllSlaves) and Comedy Noise from Ontario, Canada (Rezeegtnuk).

- Nulajednanulanula - Demo
Now, this is something so rare from Czech Republic. Agonizing screams, melancholic and desperate songwriting. This band has everything this label needs

- V Sabo - Emowave
An interesting Harsh Noise from Hungary focusing on 'emo' topics, hence the title of this EP. I prefer it as the best. Yes, it is. Heheh... IMO, this is somehow an interesting noise project that i have come across, so don't miss this...

Aspen Grove - In The Shade EP
Honestly, this is one of the decent Post-Rock/Shoegaze/Screamo bands i have discovered. No overused build-ups like most Post-Rock bands do, only calm progression occurs in this very, if not hopefully, last EP. If anyone else, like me, get tired of build-ups, this EP is for you.

The Insekt Life Cycle - Purple Gaze EP
How precious this EP is from an Instrumental Post-Rock trio from Philippines. It's like a mix of Mogwai and Mono. Very sweet and moving structures. I would also recommend this for post-rockers.

Nekro Batica - The Prison of My Youth and Other Not So Bright Speechless Stories
A Dark Ambient/Noise project from Serbia produces some dark, sinister, melancholic atmosphere. It could be more likely for sleep mode, but it could be a chiller tone to make your skins crawl. Or not. See for yourselves.

Finally! The 1st Confusion Specialist Compilation is out.

I'm satisfied and surprised to share this post for everyone who joined in this comp. For those who aren't familiar with it, this is a typical compilation, consisting of various bands who play their own sounds, such as screamo, noise, experimental, shoegaze and so on. 41 tracks may fulfill your enjoyment. And it also might make you get to know these artists. If you like it so far, please spread the word about it and share it. Thanks!

Check it here!

The first compilation of CSR will be finishing soon...

Apparently, i've gotten into a contact with lots of bands who are happy to share the tunes with us. I am very happy to say that i have got nearly 30 songs on my iTunes playlist (to perfectly watch which track is in line for a bandcamp upload).
Just look how everything has filled the slot!

That being said, it won't be on CD-r because of a very long duration for the whole compilation and will be possibly for a free download. Thank you for joining.

And if there's anything that i could do for you, message me via email from my first post below.

Confusion Specialist Records is born!

Hi, this is my first DIY/Net label that i have recently started. The name coming from a Jeromes Dream song came to my mind of a record label name because it sounded so fucking awesome. I thought starting it later, but i changed my mind and started it now.

- Screamo/Emoviolence
- Powerviolence
- Noisecore
- Fastcore
- Noise
- Drone
- HNW
- Dark Ambient
- Experimental/Avant Garde
- Hardcore Punk
- Lo-fi

Now, if you want to your music to be submitted, write me in my gmail stojiljkovic.filip2@gmail.com or send me a message via my facebook page. You can send me the music using WeTransfer/Mediafire etc.
