7“
DISCREPANCY - Where The Strength Lies Demo 7" (young blood - Discrepancy's absolute powerhouse of a demo pressed on vinyl. Four tracks of intense OC hardcore. For fans of Uniform Choice, Hard Stance, New Brigade and Disengage. Limited edition of 500 copies. 7" includes digital download.) 6.50
HEAT - s/t 7" (derganed - Heat's debut 7" is a hellish, whirlwind onslaught of ultracore agony. It would be easy to just name-check the cult HC groups of yore who make up Heat's primary influences - Neanderthal, Citizens Arrest, Impact Unit, Crossed Out, etc. - but these San Diego, CA, insurgents aren't content simply paying homage; they're taking their savage influences and pushing the aural torment into a refreshing, self-stylized direction. Whether full-tilt blasting, stomping at a mid-pace, or trudging through a dirge, there's a natural fluidity and cohesion to Heat's under-a-minute nuclear reactions that belie the group's intensity. Simply put, any fan of extreme hardcore will revel in Heat's burly, mutant approach. 7" includes digital download.) 6.50
PRIMAL RITE - Complex Life Of Passion 7" (grave mistake - The second offering from San Francisco's Primal Rite. Following up an impressive debut single, "Complex Life Of Passion" delivers a barrage of pure sonic brutality, drawing on an array of influences ranging from classic thrash and OSDM to Japanese and Clevo hardcore. From the EP's looming intro to its pulverizing close, Primal Rite manages to bring nothing less than sheer hardcore devastation from start to finish, firmly asserting their position as a band to watch for in 2017. Look for an upcoming 7" and LP on Revelation Records. 7" includes digital download.) 6.50
SHEER MAG - s/t 7" (katorga works - US Press. The debut 7" from Philadelphia's SHEER MAG finally gets a wider UK and European release! Sheer Mag seemingly came out of nowhere last Autumn with this killer four track EP. It is the only record of recent times that manages to sound like a mix of a classic Seventies rock record, power pop and an obscure English DIY 7" from the late 70's. Everything sounds scrappy, fuzzy and scuzzy and it's all the better for it. The riff packed guitar work and fuzzed female vocals sit perfectly together whilst the crude rhythms just adds bounce and basic beats. Think a mix of the power pop delight of Protex, the lo-fi nature of The Seize, the riffs of Thin Lizzy and the powerful female vocal of Suzi Quatro. It shouldn't work but it does. It really does! ) 6.50
SHEER MAG - II 7" (wilsuns - US Press. The Philadelphia quintet Sheer Mag is one of my favorite new bands out there – not only are they an impressive live act, with frontwoman Christina Halliday’s bossy, brazen vocals leading her band through blues-y, riff-heavy grooves, but that energy definitely translates to their recorded material, too. After their first 7” made huge waves in the punk community and pretty much sold out instantly, they’ve dropped a new EP, appropriately called II. (Pretty Much Amazing)) 6.50
SHEER MAG - III 7" (US Press."Sheer Mag return with another four tracker of all killers and no fillers on Wilsuns RC / Static Shock Records. Nothing has changed on this record at all - it's all epic riffs, a lo-fi and compact production, hooks galore and that soulful and gritty voice you already love. 'Can't Stop Fighting' is three and a half minutes of power pop meets classic rock and sits somewhere between the Shivvers and Thin Lizzy if such a place exists. 'Worth the Tears' is a little cleaner, mellower and soulful. Side two opens with the scuzzy and dense 'Night Isn't Bright' before the standout cut 'Nobody's Baby' - which sounds a 1978 classic rock hit that hints at Judas Priests' 'Living After Midnight' and Kiss in their prime. It's an instant pop nugget that sounds like a time long gone." (Sean Forbes)) 6.50
STAND OFF - s/t 7" (The new wave of DC hardcore. This is a one-time vinyl pressing of Stand Off's demo. Four absolutely blistering tacks of ripping hardcore. Limited edition of 500 copies. 7" includes digital download.) 6.50
LP
BAADER BRAINS - New Era Hope Colony LP (back in stock - Featuring members of other great bands such as Please Inform The Captain This Is A Hijack, Torches To Rome, Struggle, Fuel, Swing Kids, Sawhorse, John Henry West, Bread & Circuits, and more, Baader Brains deliver more forward-thinking hardcore punk that's housed in their colorful, intricate packaging. LP includes digital download.) 15.00
DEATH SIDE - Bet On The Possibility LP (feral ward - Never mind those shit Euro bootlegs, these are top-quality legitimate reissues. A very generous royalty went to the band. Legendary Japanese hardcore at its best. No long-winded glamorizing write-up needed.) 25.00
FALL OF EFRAFA - The Burial LP (Originally released 2009 as a limited run one-sided 12", now finally repressed and available again!) 12.00
FALL OF EFRAFA - Tharn LP ('Tharn' (meaning 'fear') is a single-track remix release of 'Dominion Theology' taken from their latest album 'Elil', but feels more like a teaser for new material from Brighton's Fall of Efrafa....) 12.00
MOMMY - Songs About Children LP (toxic state - This might be the most unique punk record to be released in 2016. An incredible example of the true spirit of what makes the contemporary NYC punk scene so special, as it is a completely enveloping experience that brings the listener into the harrowing and unwelcoming world of mental illness in ways few bands ever have. Mommy spiritually aligns with a bands like Rudimentary Peni without feeling the need to try and sound like them. Punk should be difficult and challenging, not tepid rehashings of former glory, and this record is certainly challenging. Essential.) 18.00
MOTHERCOUNTRY MOTHERFUCKERS - Confidential Human Source LP (clea plate - The NDA’s have expired and the long-rumored MC/MF LP is finally public for eager hearts & minds everywhere! Recorded in 2010, this project stands as fallen member Sarah Kirsch’s departing haiku to all kindred spirits still left behind enemy lines. Originally intended as internal training material for a Zen Arcade-esqe double LP, veteran producers Crisco Thunder and Jack “Whiz Bang” Shirley joined forces with the surviving MoFo’s to apply the necessary final touches on this future classic. Merging militant elegies ala-Cut the Crap with raging riffs and vitriol, the ‘Motherfuckers drag discontented, abrasively tuneful ‘hardcore punk’ off the bloody butcher’s block of historical curiosity. Scything swathes through uncharted sonic frontiers, Confidential Human Source is a true return to form, where malcontent Mothercountry Motherfuckers of all ages are sure to find lasting resonance and sustenance for the end times ahead. — Doug Moodie for Trouser Pressed ) 18.00
SALLOW - I: the great work LP ("If you like “Appalachian Black Metal” in the vein of Panopticon, Twilight Fauna, Alraune, Bastard Sapling, etc, then you will have to take a deep breath and dive into the light-swallowing music of Sallow, as within you will find everything that makes eastern North American “rural” black metal such a unique thing to behold. Located in the Pine Brush of the Appalachian Valley in upstate New York, or what the Haudenosaunee called Sche-negh-ta-da, Sallow play a rough, furious, and epic mix of USBM in the vein of bands like Yellow Eyes and Mutilation Rites, but stripped of any human emotion or warmth and instead reduced to a highly feral and primordial state, and dipped deep into the unholy Stix of a merciless and unforgiving shadow-ruled wilderness. “In “The Great Work” – the first part of a trilogy – Sallow celebrate their sworn alliegance to a dehumanized world completely stripped of the foul presence of man, through a cascading, incessant, and highly personal brand of swarming primitive black metal which – not devoid of puzzling melodies, oozing atmospheres, and eerie moods – will haunt your dreams and shatter your soul." ( cvlt nation )) 14.00
SEX PRISONER - Tannhäuser Gate LP (First full-length record from Tucson, AZ's Sex Prisoner, blending powerviolence with a more metalcore approach.) 16.00
URANIUM CLUB - All Of Them Naturals LP (static age - “All Of Them Naturals” is a fully realized, inclusive world of faux-corporation sponsored surrealist new wave punk music rife with satire and discordance. Robotically tight. Delightfully warped. Ideas as vast as Nebraska’s GMO cornfields and as lethal as the pesticides they spray on them. Did the Sunbelt Chemicals Corporation invent DDT? Maybe. Did they invent man? They think so. Did they invent the wheel? No, that was URANIUM CLUB. Truly, our generation’s DEVO. An important group." - Jensen Ward ) 14.00
WEEKEND NACHOS - Apology LP (deep six - Chicago's Weekend Nachos go out in a storm of hatred with the release of their final album, "Apology." Recorded by the band's own Andy Nelson at Bricktop Studios, "Apology" is a veritable tornado of grindcore/powerviolence/hardcore savagery, 13 tracks of utter punishment that has Weekend Nachos sounding more dangerous and urgent than ever before.) 16.00
WORSE - Rubber Burner LP (deranged . New York City's Worse has made an LP of noisy rock 'n' roll songs that don't shy away from being punk. The band relies heavily on pop sensibilities while having guitars that blare through, sounding not unlike the classic '90s bands Harvey Milk and Hammerhead. The slugging drawls of the instruments bleed into the two-singer vocals and what you're left with is a puddle of punk rock goodness. LP includes digital download.) 17.00
TAPES
CEPHEIDE - respire TAPE (Superb atmospheric black metal from Paris, France.) 6.00
TORRID HUSK / END - Swallow Matewan TAPE (Full-length split between Torrid Husk (USA) and End (GR). EU releases on Arcane Angels (vinyl) and Monotonstudio Records (cassette). US release on Grimoire Records (digital, CD, cassette). The split has been in the making for a couple of years, both bands admiring the other’s distinctive contribution to black metal. Torrid Husk's wild, densely layered style evokes the forested mountains that they come from; the combination of extreme tempos, vicious death metal drumming and intricate guitars painting a harsh landscape. This is their first recording with a second guitarist - new member Miles Craft - whose presence brings striking intricacy to the guitar lines. Blending atmospheric black metal with the pummeling intensity of technical death metal, Torrid Husk's side will appeal to fans of Abyssal, Krallice and Anicon. On side B, End crafts a uniquely Hellenic blend of atmospheric black metal infused with Nordic influences, at times reminiscent of Celtic Frost and Carpathian Forest. Their veteran line-up includes members of Nechochwen, Dephosphorous and Ravencult. In a nod to the old gods of extreme metal, their side closes with a unique interpretation of the 1983 Amebix song 'Winter'. Comprising of three weighty tracks from each band, Swallow Matewan is a deep experience. The churning seas on the album cover evoke the shared turbulence that each band brings to their style; riffs tumble and tear at each other over relentless and intricate drumming, and vocals from both are harsh and sharp as an ocean gale. Both bands understand the importance of the eye of the storm, however; delicate moments of respite punctuate both sides of the split, allowing just enough time for the next bout of brutality to hit just as hard as the last. Released by Torrid Husk’s long time label Grimoire Records, the split has a clearness enabled by their excellent in-house mastering. It is Grimoire’s first release, however, that wasn’t entirely recorded and produced in-house: while Torrid Husk and Grimoire label head Noel Mueller returned to the same secluded cabin in which they recorded 2014’s Caesious, End recorded their side at home in Greece. This displacement of setting only serves to highlight the two bands’ affinity, as the two sides flow together impeccably in spite of it.) 6.00
CD
B.SON ( black shape of nexus ) - mannheim CD (wolfboker - Recorded in 2009 at the rehearsal room, with versions of older songs played as they were played live. ) 10.00
