Some LVEUM news.
1/ New releases. ZYANOSE and BELGRADO LPs are finally out now. Just on time for their European tours. Please go and see the bands live and judge for yourself, I think both bands are great and some of the forerunners on their style.
2/ Next releases are on the works. Listen to them on the soundcloud page as I've just uploaded some tracks https://soundcloud.com/lavidaesunmus/
PUBLIC EXECUTION Discography is here, just waiting on the sleeves. It should be out within 2-3 weeks. We went all out and printed paste on board sleeves in USA. It is a split release with one of my very best friend and a member of Vida Comunale. Clinton Chapman of Shortfuse Records.
FLESH WORLD MLP out of San Francisco has been sent to the pressing plant this week. With members of LIMP WRIST/ NEEDLESS and BRILLIANT COLORS FW play a mix of the MOB and THE CLEAN. Weird moody and dark punk with great melodies.
ARCHAIC 7" - New project of some Italian and Barcelona heads which I am totally hooked to.
3/ Tours/ Gigs. I am booking the ZYANOSE European tour. Also BELGRADO/ BELLICOSE MINDS are touring Europe right now. Check the dates at the end of this email. If you are local remember that booth bands are playing London. BELGRADO Sept 24th and ZYANOSE Oct 11th. Both at the Grosvenor. Come and check them out.
4/ HOAX LP European Press - LVEUM and ADAGIO 830 are working on a Euro Press of their LP. It is at the pressing plant right now. It will be on HOAX label but we both will be wholesaling it. It should be ready quite soon.
5/ Future Projects??? Still working on some well overdue reissues that I'll keep quiet about for now. Believe me, there is some great stuff coming out. We are also working on new band releases which are always absolute priority.
6/ Distro - I just updated the site with a bunch of new records. Expect more in the next few weeks. www.lavidaesunmus.com/prestashop
I think that's about it. As usual apologize for delays on email but I am just one person running this monster which requires more than one person... please if you don't hear from me in a week or so email me again. I find ABSOLUTELY impossible to be on top of email.
Whatever you may need just hit me up at paco AT lavidaesunmus DOT com
All the best from the MUS HQ.

MUS77 BELGRADO - Siglo XXI LP
Barcelona's Belgrado return with their second album 'Siglo XXI' and first for La Vida Es Un Mus. The 11 track album melds dark and dreamy goth and post punk with a stunning and clear production. The bass leads and drives each track into the batcave whilst the vocals yearn and ache on top. This record has a clear 80's English influence (Killing Joke, Vex, A Touch of Hysteria, Blood and Roses etc) but it also very modern day Barcelona with the reverb as important as an instrument and totally DIY. 2011's excellent self titled LP has been bettered in sound, production and song.
The LP comes in a thick black and white sleeve with artwork from drummer Jonathan also including a 30x30 insert, an extra lyric sheet and a 40x55 poster.

MUS75 ZYANOSE - Why There Grieve? LP
Osaka ZYANOSE are back with a brand new LP on time for their European Tour. A twin 4 strings no 6 strings Ditch Crust Noise Core attack. Mixing the classic GLOOM sound with a bit of ELECTRO HIPPIES stupidity and a lot of their contemporaries DEATH DUST EXTRACTOR/ISTERISMO. The 12 tracks of Why There Grieve? are a highly interesting take on the late noise crasher crust out of Japan.
The LP comes with artwork by one of ZYANOSE bass player, Toyo. Responsible for the LARVA CD label and clothing company back in Japan.
Mailorder gets Green vinyl. Please USA customer notice that FERAL WARD has green vinyl for sale in USA to avoid high shipping costs.
