COLDSPINE _ Nullpunkt LP - Pre-order and Songpremiere

We're proud to announce  the pre-order of German Sludge-Fiends COLDSPINE debut albun "NULLPUNKT".
Release daste: Dec.13 2024

You can listen to the first single "Nullpunkt" on YouTube, Bandcamp and all streaming services.

The LP will be pressed on 180g heavy weight vinyl, transparent / black marbled & white / black marbled, each limited to 125 copies!
Shirt & Vinyl Bundles are available as well.

 

For their debut album "Nullpunkt", COLDSPINE developed their individual style and sound of Doom/ Sludge Metal. The full length record consists of 9 tracks and has a total runtime of 46 minutes. The songs differ from very slow Doom territory (title track "Nullpunkt", "To The Ground"), sludgy mid-tempo groove ("Odd", "Torture Rack") to faster approaches, riffs and rhythms ("Among Serpents", "Misery Routine"). Furthermore, the band puts some atmospheric elements into their music while also using clean guitar sounds and noise parts ("Regression", "Minus") as well as a dose of dissonance in their riffs. The vocals and lyrics (written in English and German) support the deep atmosphere of the music. The Album was mixed and mastered by Blackout Studio (Belgium).        
This leads to a high dynamic range and variety while experiencing the record in its entirety. Overall, with "Nullpunkt" COLDSPINE offer a diverse, varied debut record in which the band adapts elements of multiple subgenres without losing their musical roots in the Doom/ Sludge genre.
For the handpainted artwork, the band worked together with local artist Lisa Schroeder (Instagram: lisaschroeder.art). The artwork represents the bleak, dismal character of the songs and especially the name/ title of the album "Nullpunkt", which symbolizes being at your lowest point in a metaphoric way.

OUT NOW: GRIND - Grace and Misery

Finally, the day has come!

GRIND's anticipated sophomore album "GRACE AND MISERY", the is seeing the light of day. 


Available in 3  different vinyl colours, housed in a 4mm spined sleeve with a 28(!)-pages, 21 x 21 cm booklet, a special CD edition (taken care of by the band itself) and available on Bandcamp and all other streaming sevices.


We as well put up Vinyl- and CD bundles in the store, so you can grab "GRACE AND MISERY" together with the critically acclaimed debut "SONGS OF BLOOD AND LIBERATION" (released in 2020 by Dedication Recs.) and pay a fair price for both.

 

...

 

It would be too easy to simply attribute the band‘s music to its name. Even though grindcore is one of the genres the quintet plays, GRIND stands for anything but simplicity. Ulf Diel (drums), Jan Erner (voc), Armin Dobat (bass), Bent Knudsen (guit) and René Michalski (guit, voc) have known each other for 30 years as protagonists of various Post & Noise Rock as well as Death Metal and Grindcore bands from Flensburg, Germany. They create songs filled with authenticity and heart, performed with a combination of playful precision and passion.

 

But most important: GRINDs music goes beyond limitations of specific genres and clichés. The aforementioned Grindcore is joined by stylistic influences ranging from death/black metal to noise and post-rock. Sublimity and gentleness alternate with ferocity and malice, confidence set to music with despair.

 

GRIND continues on their liberal path without genre boundaries, ready to take everyone with them who wants to open up to meaningful content and forms of expression.

HEXIS - Relictus / Umbrae 8" Pre-order

1st Single "RELICTUS" online

Danish blackened hardcore pioneers HEXIS return once more with their new EP, Relictus/Umbrae. Recorded in 2021 in the same sessions as their critically acclaimed 2022 full-length Aeternum, this EP was recorded, mixed and mastered by none other than globally renowned engineer Fredrik Nordström at Fredman Studio.

Relictus/Umbrae is composed of two tracks - the opening number, Relictus, is a chaotic, high-energy sensory assault, displaying the very same blackened hardcore aggression Hexis has become known all over the world for. The second track, Umbrae, sees Hexis showcasing their slower side as they explore the vast depths of blackened doom - a seething, heaving, malignant wall of blackened dissonance and distortion that would make even the most devout doom enthusiast weak at the knees. As always, Hexis have once again delivered on yet another world-class offering of bleak, bludgeoning blackened hardcore.

The first single, Relictus, is premiering now on YouTube alongside a striking visualiser courtesy of Finnish production group Riivata Visuals, and is also available on your streaming platform of choice now.

Relictus/Umbrae will be released on limited edition 8” vinyl by 7 Degrees Records in Europe, Ancient Temple Recordings in Canada, and Starved Light in Australia. The EP will be released digitally on April 22nd, with vinyl copies expected to ship late April/early May. Preorders are open now.

ABJURED / T​.​F​.​B. -  Split LP OUT NOW

This Split Album is brought to you by DIY conspiracy, accomplices are the Bands, Lixiviat, Loner Cult and yours truly.

 

Pressed on 180g recycling vinyl, so every LP is basically a unique piece.

 

Housed in a Gatefold sleeve , incl. Poster.

 

ABJURED - waste town grind - play a strong mixture of scandi-infused grind with hints of death metal, d-beat, hardcore, sludge. The songs they present here are just 6 heavy as fuck kicks in the teeth.

 

T.F.B from Trier are either not unknown in the scene. They play furious thrash-grind with two insane vocalists. If you're into thrashy riffs in the vein of Wehrmacht, Spazztic Blurr, COC and the likes, driven by blastbeats then you gotta love those dudes.

PYROLATROUS - Inveterate LP

Records will ship late December/Early January.

Limited to 500 copies worldwide. 250Blue / Magentamerge w/splatter. 250 cloud blue.

7Degrees will have 200 copies for Europe.

 

Gilead Media and 7Degrees Records present the new full-length from Brooklyn’s PYROLATROUS, and their first new recordings in six years, titled INVETERATE.

 

PYROLATROUS (who feature members of Hull, Krallice, Anicon, Woe, and more) present 43 minutes of blazing, melodic blackened death metal dealing with a multitude of topics ranging from the intensely personal to the global socio-political. Vocalist Nicholas Palmirotto states, “The content deals with death, grief, addiction, loss of love, an influx of right-wing nationalism throughout the world, living in a capitalist hellscape, and oppressive government regimes.” The album’s title means to have a long-established habit or feeling that is unlikely to change and relates to many of these topics directly, particularly those around addiction and loss.

 

This new recording marks the first PYROLATROUS album recorded as a full four-piece, whereas their previous album Teneral was tracked solely by Palmirotto and drummer Lev Weinstein. The growth in these new songs is apparent as the addition of lead guitarist Nolan Voss and bassist Joe Merolla (both of whom have been part of the lineup since just after the recording of Teneral) combined with the established Pyrolatrous foundation has given the band strength to develop and refine their sound. Everything on Inveterate feels tighter and focused. The album bursts with angular riffs and searing solos, driven home by a monstrous rhythmic onslaught from the bass and drums as they hold together the ever evolving compositions. The influences of the more avant-garde black and death metal icons can surely be found scattered across the landscape of Inveterate.

 

Recorded at Barbershop Studios, Lake Hopatcong, NJ in December, 2019

by Brett Romnes. Mixed by Sanford Parker. Mastered by Brad Boatright/Audio Siege. Artwork by Jas Helena. Logo by View From The Coffin.

SUFFERING QUOTA - Collide LP Pre-Order

SUFFERING QUOTA, the notorious Dutch grindcore band, are set to unleash their third album, COLLIDE, cementing their place in the grindcore scene. With their signature blend of grindcore, death metal, crust, and hardcore, dosed in various quantities, the band is poised to deliver yet another explosive offering, adding to their nearly 15 years of existence.

After gaining recognition for their previous albums and EPs, SUFFERING QUOTA further solidified their place in the scene with their split release alongside PSYCHONEUROSIS and HERIDA PROFUNDA in 2019, showcasing their fiercely unique sound and intense energy. Now, in 2023, the Groningen grindcore unit returns with their highly-anticipated third full-length album, set to elevate their campaign of terror to new heights.

 

COLLIDE builds further on the foundations laid down on their previous album, LIFE IN DISGUST and is a multifaceted sequel that ties the thread together whilst continuously looking forward. Both are recorded live at the Soundlodge Studio and have artwork created by painter and friend Wokkel. Musically it continues the subversion of genres through gleeful experimentation switching up rhythms, toying with dynamics, texture and track length.

 

On COLLIDE, SUFFERING QUOTA have created a 12-ton bomb that transfixes the listener, hitting with the crushing force of an event horizon. Containing their signature mix of extreme genres infused with a unique touch of experimentation, they maintain an onslaught of colossal dimensions. With COLLIDE, SUFFERING QUOTA start a new chapter in their campaign of terror whilst maintaining the focus on their distinctive sound.

 

On May 26th, Lower Class Kids Records, 7Degrees Records, and Tartarus Records will release the bands 12-song, 19-minute blood-soaked collaborative descent into the depths of the abyss, grinding your mind to pieces.

HERIDA PROFUNDA stream full album on NO CLEAN SINGING

Polish grindcore stalwarts HERIDA PROFUNDA are premiering their second album "Power to the People" at No Clean Singing. Stream it HERE!

 

"Power to the People" is due out July 22nd 2022 via 7 Degrees Records (Europe), 783 Punx (UK), Wise Grinds Records, Give Praise Records & To Live a Lie (US).

 

“Power to the People” has been firmly built over the columns and foundations of grind and crust punk, and it captures the band’s collective frustrations and personal journeys through these turbulent times. An album that showcases the band sounding tighter than ever before. An overdose of gut-wrenching grindcore which is heavy, engrossing and undoubtedly brutal.

 

"It took us ages to write the new album and then, even longer to record it. During that time, we've been witnessing changes that ruling party in Poland are imposing on normal people, silent acceptance for extreme right, Polish women stripped from their basic rights, takeover of national TV to spread propaganda. The title, as well as lot of lyrical content is a comment to this situation. We have always been a band with a political message, but maybe the way to win the struggle is to cut off all political content, self-organise, resist, do your own thing, build your own world where justice is served and the machine of corruption and suffering collapse. Fire To Parliament! Power to The People!".

 

Album tracklist:

 

01. Power to the People

02. Dirty Hands

03. Wave of Hate

GREBER - Fright WIthout LP is ready for Pre-Order

 

We are happy to announce we will be helping GREBER release their newest record "Fright Without" on September 9th 2022.

 

Grinding sludge duo, forming in 2006, have made quite and impact on the Canadian heavy music scene. Combining many sub-genres of metal and hardcore to create a unique explosive sound, Greber continues to evolve with every record.

FRIGHT WITHOUT is a noisey, relentless attack for fans of Yautja, Ken Mode, Man Is The Bastard, Magrudergrind, Neanderthal + more.

 

“Fright Without'” is a handleless staircase that disorients as much as it overwhelms. Our testament to suffering and hope, balance and woe, heaven and here. With Kurt Ballou lending his abilities to the mix we’re beyond happy with how the final product came to sound and we hope that the listener finds it to be as much of an escape as they do a confrontation.”

STHENO - Wardance LP is out now

The LP comes as special edition on 100 beige/black marbled vinyland as standard edition on 250 black vinyl.

LP/ Shirt Bundles are available in limited quantities.

 

From beginning ofnext week , the album will be available on all digital platforms.

 

The album's 11 tracks blaze a trail of fury by way of blistering tremolo and battle-ready percussion. STHENO has blurred the boundaries between grindcore, black, death and other extreme strains of heavy metal since 2013. The band was founded by like-minded individuals among the Greek grind and crust scene with the intentions of creating harsh music while drawing inspiration from black and death metal without any regards, or limitations, to the structures surrounding each respective sub-genre.

 

After some line-up changes and several concerts in Greece, Germany, Switzerland and France, STHENO are ready to unleash their new album "Wardance", which features Christian Chaco, frontman of German death-grinders KEITZER, on vocals. Produced by Stelios "Stelth" Koslidis, the record is a war-themed concept album which is bound to catapult the band into the higher echelon of extreme underground metal.

 

To keep it extremely unrelenting without being stagnant and too monotonous is a difficult art form, but STHENO manages to stay away from all this and delivers an album full of metallic mayhem while keeping it fresh and dynamic at the same time.

 

FFO Marduk, Anaal Nathrakh, Rotten Sound, Retaliation

 

Press:

 

"This record oozes filth while aiming for your jugular and it never lets up, that is a fact! Every song is a raging anthem that is meant to inflect audio torment on the listener. I fucking love the way STHENO’s songs get me hyped. This is why I’m super stoked to share with y’all Wardance in full below." - CVLT NATION

 

"They’re not fucking kidding either. Once the command is given Stheno unleash a rapid-fire percussive cannonade, a firestorm of wild, brazen riffage, and a torrent of enraged howling vocals. With only one brief pause, the intensity is unrelenting as the band create a frenzied musical battlefield. Yet for such a full-bore, no-holds-barred assault, the song also has a throughline of exotic, dervish-like melody that gets its hooks in the head despite how brief the track is." - NO CLEAN SINGING

 

"but damn these 11 compositions are so well written and well played that makes “Wardance” undoubtedly one of the highlights of the year in extreme sound." - METAL INVADER

 

"Very short but also intense, Wardance offers a compendium of pure violence under the sign of Black Metal. Stheno draws from unhealthy and raw Old School roots to relentlessly strike us during nearly twenty-five minutes." - ACTA INFERNALIS
