| planks / lentic waters | Split 12" | 8.00 € |
PREORDER - ESTIMATED SHIPPING end of june
Planks / Lentic Waters split 12" 10,00 A constellation of two German monoliths - both unique in what they do – still a harmonizing team. The A side shows Planks taking yet another step away from their Hardcore roots. In the vein of their last output The Darkest Of Grays, they deliver their unique blend of gloomy, melody ridden, downtuned heaviness that incooperate aspects of Doom, Black Metal and Dark Wave - but this time they even go one step further and take on Grunge methodologies in Leave And Never Come Back. All they did on their last records finds its way into these three tracks but everything seems more organized, filtered, more mature and in better sound. Lentic Waters' B side of the split delivers the first three new songs after their impressive first s/t LP. The still fairly new band took the time on the road during the weeks of tours they spent, to distinguish what they are capable of and what they do best. Those tracks bring their facets of grinding emoviolence, double-bass frenzy and super catchy melodies. Also the sound of the recording improved and therefore offers the listener a better inside into what this band is able to. Three string instruments that play three different things at the same time just to have one big harmony in the end. Melodies shattered by ravishing outbursts to flow into massive, epic endings. It should be interesting to see how much more this band has to offer in the future seeing the transition they undertook in such short time. The Split LP comes on limited white vinyl (200) and black vinyl (800) with drop-dead gorgeous, silver printed artwork by Pierre Johansson on heavy cardboard. Released by Apocaplexy Records, React With Protest and IFB Records.

| tempest | passages 12" | 10.00 € |
damn i love canada! i fell in love with (diy) hardcore through bands like uranus and one eyed god prophecy ... again with buried inside and titan .... you know bands that have this heartfelt passion mixed with frustration and anger! so this is the newest eruption from canada called TEMPEST. and i m in love again ...
Passages takes the listener through bitter and emotional crust, a trip that encompasses despondency, vitriolic rage and some really great sound samples. It's not a long record - in fact it's probably the perfect length, coming in at just over 24 minutes. The 7 tracks are of reasonable length but every single one is attention grabbing, not to mention the 7 minute epic self titled track that closes the album. I don't really have anything bad to say about this. Every moment of it is excellent, it certainly doesn't overstay its welcome and it has a great deal of replay value.
"Dark Hardcore" to a tee, mixing aspects of Hardcore, Black Metal, and Crust in a unique blend of chaotic fury."
| beau navire / republic of dreams | (black vinyl) split 7" | 4.00 € |
Oakland's BEAU NAVIRE, comprised of members of Loma Prieta and various other Bay Area bands, deliver their best material to date following a slew of releases in only a little over a year and non-stop playing up and down the west coast as well as a european tour. They bring a nervous violence to their heartfelt brand of chaotic hardcore which uniquely plays out in their songwriting. Reminiscent of bands like Neil Perry, Funeral Diner etc. Germany's REPUBLIC OF DREAMS is made up of members of Louise Cyphre and play absolutely frantic, feedback-drenched punk at a nonstop breakneck pace without sacrificing an ounce of melody for the chaos. Fans of Raein and other European screamo bands take note. US tour planned this year.

| bolz'n | spaltfunktion 12" | 8.00 € |
this is some very fucking promising tech-grindcore.talking about majorly
intense and frantic grind with wildly chaotic drumming that barely seems to
follow the same beat as the guitars, which are ultra fast and a little
noisy, but also super detuned for added heaviness. Also in place are layered
screaming/growling female vocals (some of the best I've ever heard), crazy
technical riffs with plenty of blasting speeds, and lots of weird chord
phrasings and rhythmic patterns that really fuck with the structures and
make for an odd listen. you ve been warned.
