ONW – Ersatz Soul Cassette

AN OUT RECORDINGS 2025
Onw /oʊn/ is the searing solo black metal project of Sasha Stroud, engineering overlord at Artifact Audio in Portland, OR, via NY. She plays in Sev Lezu, 80HD, and Belexum! The sprawling 10 tracks narrate a story of possession, transformation, internal antagonism and entropy. Culminating in the triumphant Resurrection Sickness, followed by the mournful Graveside, as all things return to earth as they must. Accompanied by J-card color illustrations.

An Out Recordings is an anarchist, queer, feminist and anti-racist black metal, doom, drone, and noise label.
All releases are DIY, assembled ethically, with vegan inks and glue. Some are sewn, screenprinted.
An Out tries to release projects from women, people of colour and queer people and ask fans to check out stuff from the label that they might not have heard before, to support new artists<3
