In 1995 Slaughter Productions released a cassette tape called “You Will Never Survive This Nightmare”, by cult Industrial act Megaptera. This cassette was a milestone in the development of genre of Death Industrial. Containing a re-mastered version of the debut cassette “You Will Recover” originally released in 1991 on Nuxdorf Recordings, as well as the three track cassette “Nightmares” and three unreleased bonus tracks. The formation of Live Bait Recording Foundation could be traced back to the acquisition of this cassette. So, it is with great excitement and honor we announce the re-issue of this seminal Death Industrial release for the first time ever on CD, completely re-mastered in the summer of 2006. Fleshing out this 125 minute double CD is a long forgotten 6 track live performance from London in 2006. Featuring a completely obscure set-list featuring favorites like “Someone’s at the Door” and “Plague Spot”. Get re-aquainted with your Death Industrial roots, or ours at least!!! Limited to 1000 copies.
Live Bait Recording is pleased to announce that this title is in final stages of production and will be available in 2 weeks!!!

The release of 2005’s “Ghosts of the Soul Long Lost” retrospective marked the first 10 years of cult Industrial act Murderous Vision. Providing a looking glass into the history of this well respected purveyor of all things dark. “Life’s Blood Death’s Embrace” charts the path for the future of the project. A deathly mixture of the blackest of Ambient passages supplemented
heavily by Classical refrains and post-industrial rhythmic structures.
Taking the mixture of these to the next level, of which the foundation was laid by 2002’s successful offering “The Times Without Gods”. Add to this sound and vocal contributions by the controversial Industrial artist Brethren, crystal clear production values and a superb Mastering job from the legendary hands of Peter Andersson (Raison d’?tre, Stratvm Terror etc.).
This standard jewel case edition of 1000 copies features artwork by the mesmerizing and lethal Visual Artist Rebecca Potter and multi medium Polish art phenomena Kati Astraeir to perfectly match the dark vision of this album. Audio and Art merged to create a greater whole, and it comes together impeccably. A must own for all who live for Death Industrial/Ambient music!
Bringing you the finest in Dark Music since 1996

Deep layers, melodic keyboards, classical samples, some ritualistic percussion here, some low-pitched echoed plus chorused voices there, and a good dose of darkness via reverb and minor chords; you already know the formula, don’t you? But the fact is that, even if Murderous Vision repeats the patterns of an established genre with a superb accuracy – and then,
maybe you can infer that this is the case of a perfectly planned album, which lacks an own soul, and that’s not precisely what surrounds me -, Mr Petrus demonstrates that it has an identity as a composer. And moreover, I would describe some parts of the recording as highly emotional, giving that somewhat special touch to the album; the quality all art should transmit and something that some technically depurated musicians tend to forget nowadays.
Add to it a few carefully arranged pictures (layout work of the acclaimed Michael Riddick) in a standard jewel case, but with a professional appearance, and, as a whole, here you have the reasons why an edition like this couldn’t keep on passing unnoticed for the average fan of the more listenable side of Industrial. A perfectly designed product and an infallible bet, which surely decided the artist to give its best in all senses once he realized what he had between hands. A moment of brilliancy and a high mark difficult to be surpassed in the near future, but that can set a new beginning for the band.
