"The Freaks: No Violence Over The Individual". Already in the title of the album it reveals the branded "Bulgarian" irony, with which the authors set off a painful traumatic sound, designed to open the psychic shell, like an old furuncle. The sound became tougher, more aggressive and darker. And the postmodern game with ridiculous names of compositions, like "Agrarian Question", "It Was A Man Of Years Of Fifty", etc. only "knocks" the listener out of the way, breaking the usual boundaries of perception, since in this album appear a serious approach to sound, appeal to ritual elements and psy-ambient with the dominance of metal percussion. As the closest analogue can be called the early work of Zoviet France and Nurse With Wound.
Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind.
We signed a contract with Alexander Chulkov, a member of the original group and direct copyright holder, under which our label is the only official publisher of all early "Bulgarian" stuff recorded prior to the tragic death of Alexey Chulkov — Alexander’s younger brother and the founding member of the project, including self-released cassette albums, lost songs and other stuff.
The first and only official edition of the legendary records.

"Уроды: Никакого Насилия Над Психикой". Уже в названии альбома обнаруживается фирменная "болгаровская" ирония, которой авторы оттеняют болезненный травматический саунд, призванный вскрывать психическую скорлупу, как застаревший фурункул. Звук стал жестче, агрессивнее и мрачней. И постмодернистская игра с нелепыми названиями композиций, как "Аграрный Вопрос", "Это Был Мужчина Лет Пятидесяти" и т.д. лишь "сбивает" слушателя с пути, размыкая привычные границы восприятия, так как в этом альбоме уже начинает проявлять себя достаточно серьезный подход к звуку, обращение к ритуальным элементам и пси-эмбиенту, с преобладанием метал-перкуссии. В качестве ближайшего аналога можно назвать ранние работы Zoviet France и Nurse With Wound.
Ценители знают, что данный проект — это целая веха в истории российского андеграунда, одни из родоначальников пост-советского индастриала, пример бескомпромиссного музыкального авангардизма, звуковых экспериментов и манипуляций с сознанием.
С Александром Чулковым, прямым правообладателем и участником оригинального состава Болгар, подписан договор, в соответствии с которым наш лейбл отныне является единственным официальным издателем всего раннего «болгарского» материала, записанного до трагической смерти Алексея Чулкова, включая кассетный самиздат, потерянные композиции и прочее.
Первое и единственное официальное издание легендарных записей.
