A STAINED GLASS ROMANCE - It's not a party without us CD 11.90 EUR
METAL. Formed itself in 2001 from the ashes of ARIA (US), WINTER SOLSTICE, STRONGHOLD, DAYLIGHT TRAGEDY, SPLITCAST. Broke up and then reformed in 2005 then broke up again and reformed in 2007. "It's not a party without us" is the first release from an American band for Torque Records and is a showcase of the Southern metal brought by this North Carolina band. (2008/TORQUE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
AGATHOCLES / GORGONIZED DORKS - Split 7'' 3.90 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. Belgium's legendary AGATHOCLES have been around since the late '80s and this time around they blast out 4 tracks of patented Mince Core, true to their mid '90s style. Southern California's Noise Core weirdos GORGONIZED DORKS (who get their name from an AGATHOCLES song) this time attack with 5 raw hardcore punk tracks with lyrics about war and the crumbling society in which we live in. This record is strictly limited to 1000 copies. (2008/AGROMOSH)
-----------------------------------------------------------
ANTI YOU - Johnny Baghdad 7'' 4.20 EUR
HARDCORE. This record is brutally fast hardcore with great hooks that make it stand out as a hit among the legions of generic hardcore records coming out these days. ANTI YOU are from Italy but the sound on this record would likely be closer to that of the first wave of LA hardcore bands a la CIRCLE JERKS or BLACK FLAG and will also please fans of REGUALTIONS, LA PIOVRA, MINOR THREAT and GOVERNMEMT WARNING. (2008/PUKE AND VOMIT)
-----------------------------------------------------------
AT HALF-MAST - Fathers and sons CD 11.50 EUR
HARDCORE. AT HALF-MAST’s sophomore full-length release titled "Fathers and sons" brings forth 11 new tracks of dark, emotionally charged hardcore from one of the East Coast’s most promising bands. Heavily influenced by the likes of SHAI HULUD, TRAGEDY, CIRCA SURVIVE, and MISERY SIGNALS, "Fathers and sons" spotlights the mature progression of the band’s songwriting and lyrical themes. With a full-length LP and two split 7”s already under their belts, AT HALF-MAST went back into the studio in 2008 to record "Fathers and sons" for Words Of War Records. Recorded at Ledbelly Sound Studios in South Carolina, AT HALF-MAST enlisted the help of studio engineer Matt Washburn (MASTODON, NORMA JEAN) to produce a recording that rips through the unpolished and youthful sounds heard in previous AT HALF-MAST recordings. Combined with the mastering genius of West West Side Studios (MODERN LIFE IS WAR, CONVERGE, SNAPCASE, LIFETIME, UNEARTH, SICK OF IT ALL, BAD BRAINS, EARTH CRISIS), "Fathers and sons" is the result of a band
that has become as comfortable as ever with themselves – both musically and lyrically. (2008/WORDS OF WAR)
-----------------------------------------------------------
BENEATH THE SKY - The day the music died CD 11.90 EUR
METALCORE. BENEATH THE SKY has crafted a blend of extreme metal mixing HATEBREED-styled brutality and AT THE GATES-influenced melody, laying it down onto 12 tracks for their sophomore effort for Victory Records. (2008/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CANCER BATS - Hail destroyer CD 11.50 EUR
HARDCORE. Integrating more punk, stoner rock, metal and hardcore into the mix and taking a much more introspective approach than its predecessor, "Hail destroyer" sees the CANCER BATS taking their musicianship to a whole new level. They seamlessly mix the melody of RISE AGAINST with the dirt of COLISEUM and the rock 'n' roll fury and swagger of EVERY TIME I DIE. (2008/BLACK MARKET ACTIVITIES)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CARCASS - Heartwork DoCD+DVD 15.90 EUR
DEATH METAL. The group's most accessible, yet still crushing album. The perfect combination of IRON MAIDEN-like harmonies and gut wrenching detuned grind. Now available as a deluxe edition containing the remastered album, exclusive bonus disc and in-depth CARCASS documentary film "The pahtologist's report" (Part 4). (2008/EARACHE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CARNIFEX - The diseased and the poisoned CD 11.90 EUR
DEATH-METAL. Leading the pack of the new wave of American death metal is a band from San Diego known as CARNIFEX. Armed to the teeth with an arsenal of blast-beats, machine gun riffs and vocals exorcised from the deepest pits of hell, CARNIFEX is prepared to lead legions into battle and slaughter the opposition in the process. "The diseased and the poisoned" was produced by Zeuss (Hatebreed, God Forbid, Shadow's Fall). (2008/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CUTE IS WHAT WE AIM FOR - Rotation CD 13.90 EUR
EMO-ROCK. The sophomore effort from CUTE IS WHAT WE AIM FOR picks up where they left off after their 200+K selling debut, with 11 tracks of upbeat emo/pop/rock that fits in perfectly alongside other Fueled By Ramen bands like PARAMORE, FALL OUT BOY and The ACADEMY IS. (2008/FUELED BY RAMEN)
-----------------------------------------------------------
DAMIERA - Quiet mouth loud hands CD 11.90 EUR
INDIE-ROCK. This is where the story has brought us, to the moment DAMIERA defeated their greatest challenge through hard work and sacrifice, and are preparing to set sail on a comparatively smooth sea, armed with an impressive debut that brings to mind the progressive tones of AT THE DRIVE-IN, the prancing guitars of MINUS THE BEAR, complex layers of FARAQUET and the compelling melodies of BRAID. Not only does the record, which resounds with the ever-relevant themes of sacrifice, self-discovery and change, reveal an exceptionally talented band with a singular and clear vision, but it represents the human capacity for accomplishment. (2008/EQUAL VISION)
-----------------------------------------------------------
DEAR LIFE - Framework CD 12.50 EUR
HARDCORE. Blending subtle textures and severe devastation, this Southern California quintet brings a refreshing breath of vitality, creativity and meaning into today's scene with their signature style of hardcore. Produced by Roger Camero (No Motiv, The Warriors) and Donny and Danny Phillips (ex-The Warriors) and mixed by Paul Miner (New Found Glory, Death By Stereo, Thrice), their debut full-length album "Framework" delivers thunderous breakdowns, intricate progressive riffs and melodic hooks with ferocity and technical precision. For fans of COMEBACK KID, EVERY TIME I DIE and The WARRIORS. (2008/UPRISING)
-----------------------------------------------------------
FALL OF SERENITY - The crossfire CD 12.90 EUR
METALCORE. FALL OF SERENITY are back with a bang! Things changed massively in FALL OF SERENITY's world after releasing their last effort "Bloodred salvation" in 2006. The new FALL OF SERENITY album is breathing life, reinforcing the times of hailing the old Bay Area spirit, while furthering their skills concerning hooks, progress and brutality. (2008/LIFEFORCE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
FEELINGS MUTUAL, THE - Same MCD 5.90 EUR
INDIE/ROCK. THE FEELINGS MUTUAL is a young three piece indie rock band from San Diego. Their songs encompass dynamics from all over the spectrum and maintain a melancholy and rhythm-based fluidity true to their influences, FAILURE and THE PIXIES. This self-titled EP is the band's first release with plans of a full-length later this year. Indie rock fans looking to discover something new will appreciate the depth of this band and their music. (2008/ARES)
-----------------------------------------------------------
GAUZE - Binbou yusuri no rizumu ni notte LP 11.50 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. The fifth LP from Tokyo, Japanese Hardcore legends, GAUZE. Since 1981 GAUZE have played some of the world's most intense hardcore punk and, at this point, might hold the title of the World's greatest continually playing, original 1980's hardcore band. A "Living tradition" of Japanese hardcore that has never mellowed with age, GAUZE have played monthly in Tokyo for 27 years, devoting most of their energy to their live performances. Many of their songs are hammered out at their live shows long before their sporadic recorded releases (their last release was ten years ago!). GAUZE's songs just seem to get FASTER with each record, and the blinding 10 tracks here are no exception. Issued in Japan in late 2007 as a CD-only release, this is one of GAUZE's rawest recording yet and it's first appearance on vinyl. (2008/PRANK)
-----------------------------------------------------------
GRAY GHOST - Same 10'' 9.90 EUR
POST-ROCK. Atlanta, Georgia's GRAY GHOST bring a slow, dark, sludgy sound that is at times heavy and dissonant, with lulling, atmospheric interludes, bringing to mind bands like ISIS, GIANT and TIDES. (2008/COPPER LUNG)
-----------------------------------------------------------
HER BREATH ON GLASS - We aimed straight down LP 11.50 EUR
SCREAMO-HARDCORE. Amazing new record by these emo vetrans of the LAST 40 SECONDS and SADDEST LANDSCAPE. Expect solid 1990’s style emo with pained vocals and raw, visceral guitar and drums. This album will definitely please fans of the band, as they add some heavier parts, and some dark moodiness for a seriously epic set. This release has split black/red vinyl, a hand screened cover with 5 prints, a hand stamped envelope with 9 full cover inserts and 2 other inserts and a patch! (2008/IFB)
-----------------------------------------------------------
INSTANT ASSHOLE / MOUTH SEWN SHUT - Split 7'' 3.90 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. Oakland's INSTANT ASSHOLE brings 4 quick witted fast hardcore punk jams. Boston's MOUTH SEWN SHUT throw down 2 crushers in the same vein as their other band, TOXIC NARCOTIC. No reggae grooves on this one, just straight fast punk delivery. Essential punk split, awesome. (2008/TANK CRIMES)
-----------------------------------------------------------
IRON BOOTS - 2004 demo 7'' 3.70 EUR
HARDCORE. Available on vinyl once again, 8 ripping tracks of late '80s NY influenced hardcore that could be mistaken for long lost WARZONE "Don't Forget the Struggle..." outtakes. Originally released as a demo tape in 2004, these songs were then pressed to vinyl twice by two separate labels. Those pressings came and went, so after several years of this 7" being unavailable we decided to give it another go, simply because these songs shred. (2008/GRAVE MISTAKE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
JAY REATARD - Singles 06-07 CD+DVD 15.50 EUR
PUNK. Vinyl postponed to 08.07.2008. By now, JAY REATARD should be known to most everyone paying any attention to this whole indie/punk/pop/garage/shitgaze/blahblahblah. Former front guy for The REATARDS and LOST SOUNDS and current solo sensation, the man is nothing if not prolific. After recording his debut solo LP, 2006's "Blood visions", Reatard released a slew of singles and EPs on labels across the globe; all were pressed in limited quantities and now fetch serious coin on eBay. In The Red is proud to release ''Singles 06-07'', a collection of all his out-of-print material, re-mastered by the Tard himself. It's finally possible to hear these gems in one straight shot, sounding better than ever, without flipping over a pile of seven inch platters. The CD version of ''Singles 06-07'' includes a DVD showcasing some choice live performances of Reatard and his incredible live backing band, the BOSTON CHINKS. The vinyl version is a Double-LP housed in a beautiful gatefold sleeve. (2008/IN THE RED)
-----------------------------------------------------------
KNIGHTS OF THE ABYSS - Shades CD 10.90 EUR
METAL. Hailing from Glendale, Arizona, the metal powerhouse known as KNIGHTS OF THE ABYSS forges an onslaught of heavy and intricate riffing while adding a sense of melody uncharacteristic of most bands today. Guitarist Cody Bechtel says, “We aim to make music that is fun and easy to listen to but that also has an intelligent sense of musicianship and melody.” The band's unique style of intense metal has taken them to the forefront of the community and placed them among many other great artists on the Ferret Music roster. Formed in early 2005, KNIGHTS OF THE ABYSS has gone against the odds booking a majority of their own shows and tours while self-releasing two sets of demo tracks. Their Ferret Music debut album "Shades" was produced by the band and mixed by Andreas Magnusson (SCARLET, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER.) The band has been a staple on the “Top 100 Metal Bands” on MySpace for the past year! (2008/FERRET)
-----------------------------------------------------------
LAGRECIA - On parallels CD 10.90 EUR
PUNK. When NONE MORE BLACK disbanded, vocalist Jason Shevchuk, also an ex-member of KID DYNAMITE, formed LAGRECIA, who wrote and recorded these 11 tracks, bringing a melodic punk sound with a bit of a rock 'n' roll feel.

METALCORE. Straight edge legends LIFERUINER, long known for their intensely brutal and energetic live performances, have teamed with producer Jamie King (Through The Eyes Of The Dead, Between The Buried And Me) to capture the bands frenetic soul crushing "wall of sound" assault, delivering an instant hardcore classic. Having completed more than 6 national tours in the last year, two of them with EMMURE, LIFERUINER have firmly established themselves as one of today's most sought after hardcore straight edge bands, appealing to all types of heavy music fans, not limited to the confines of any sub genre or "straight edge" scene classification. For fans of EMMURE, THE ACACIA STRAIN, BURY YOUR DEAD, PANTERA and ION DISSONANCE. (2008/UPRISING)
-----------------------------------------------------------
MADE OUT OF BABIES - The ruiner CD 14.50 EUR
POST-ROCK. MADE OUT OF BABIES' third album "The ruiner" is their most inspired and complex album to date. While the album retains the group's trademark ferocious hybrid of PJ HARVEJ, JESUS LIZARD, YEAH YEAH YEAHS and BIG BLACK, it also finds the band's musical exploration showcasing something unsettling and unique. Features members of BATTLE OF MICE and RED SPAROWES. (2008/END)
-----------------------------------------------------------

HARDCORE. Each 2 new songs by both powerhouses, MÖNSTER from Berlin continue with their down-tuned, hate-filled, but always rocking hardcore including a AC/DC-style hommage intro. DAYMARES hail from Poland, bringing dark, crusty, metallic hardcore. (2008/MIND OVER MATTER)

-----------------------------------------------------------
TAKE IT BACK! - Can't fight robots CD 10.90 EUR
HARDCORE. TAKE IT BACK! are taking the US by storm this summer with the release of their debut album "Can’t fight robots". After being referred to Facedown Records by many of the bands presently on the label for their energetic live show and infectiously catchy brand of melodic hardcore, the band was signed and within months had toured the US, played at the sold out Facedown Fest 2008 and recorded "Can’t fight robots" at The Foundation with Joey Sturgis (DEVIL WEARS PRADA, KINGSTON FALLS). With non-stop touring already confirmed as well as a stop at this summer’s Cornerstone Festival, it’s only a matter of time before these Arkansas natives are leading the pack of the new breed of melodic and positive hardcore bands. A must have album for fans of COMEBACK KID, SET YOUR GOALS and PENNYWISE. (2008/FACEDOWN)
-----------------------------------------------------------
TRAPPED UNDER ICE - Stay cold CD 10.90 EUR
HARDCORE. Hailing from the port city of Baltimore, Maryland comes the war-mammoth known as TRAPPED UNDER ICE, who proudly inherit and build upon the mantle of their predecessors NEXT STEP UP and GUT INSTINCT. Compound this with the sonic territories explored by New York bands such as CROWN OF THORNS and BREAKDOWN, and the intent of the outfit becomes obvious - total aural brutality. Following their inception in 2007, a 5-song demo, which was also released as an EP on Flatspot Records, was quick to follow. Hearing the demo songs, the crew at Reaper Records approached the band with a deal to release what would become known as the "Stay cold" EP. The EP contains 6 tracks of unrelenting hardcore reality. With this mission accomplished, the plot to bring it to the people was hatched. The CD also contains the "Demo 07" EP, 9 bonustracks all in all. (2008/REAPER)
-----------------------------------------------------------

PUNK. One time pressing of 1000. Includes full-size, 20 page book of photos, art and text printed on recycled paper at Hemlock Printers. This record is to document a year of one of the best alternative spaces currently operating in Canada. THE EMERGENCY ROOM is located in Vancouver’s rat and drug infested downtown eastside. A literal underground, this basement warehouse is an indestructible fortress of creation, destruction and repair with a philosopy of DANCE or DIE, piss your pants and puke on yourself!!! From its origins as a free, D.I.Y. all-ages noise/performance art gathering in the basement of the Emily Carr Arts Institute Parkade, to its current existence in a former fish processing factory, the E.R. has consistently put on some of the weirdest, most elaborate, entertaining and ridiculous art and music shows in vancouver’s recent underground history. After a year of spray-painted walls, bizzare installations and art works, blood, fights, broken glass, punk rock, noise, art, make-outs and more, here
is EMERGENCY ROOM Volume 1. Bands include DEFECTORS, MUTATORS, PETROLEUM BY-PRODUCTS, TWIN CRYSTALS, VAPID, NUSENSAE, WHIATE LUNG, and SICK BUILDINGS. (2008/NOMINAL)
-----------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------
VULTURES UNITED - Dirt hearts 7''/MCD 5.90/5.90 EUR

Self-released on their own label, The Pirate Record Company, "Dirt hearts" sees the band continuing their BLACK FLAG meets MURDER CITY DEVILS meets The NERVE AGENTS destruction. VULTURES UNITED push the envelope of hardcore/punk, shattering any pre-conceived notions of what that should be. Vinyl version contains 2 additional bonus tracks not available on the CD. (2008/PIRATE RECORD COMPANY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
WAIT IN VAIN - Seasons CD 8.50 EUR
HARDCORE. WAIT IN VAIN has emerged in the Northwest as one of the most dynamic bands in the hardcore scene today. Their passion, intensity and anger are spreading like wildfire worldwide. The band, as described by former TRIAL (Equal Vision Records) front man Greg Bennick, "is both a reminder of the past and a vision of what is to come: the return of hardcore that feels dangerous and potentially lethal to the status quo." Fronted by Timm McIntosh, formerly of TRIAL and CHAMPION (Bridge 9 Records), WAIT IN VAIN has a voice that has been a part of the uprising, continuation and return of Seattle straight edge hardcore. With Roger Kilburn (LOVE IS RED / SINKING SHIPS) and Chris Jacobsen (SET YOUR GOALS) on guitars, WAIT IN VAIN is driven by dynamic musicianship that sets them apart from many of the run-of-the-mill acts in hardcore today. Also featured on this recording is Alexei Rodriguez, who is known from his work with TRIAL and WALLS OF JERICHO (Trustkill Records). (2008/THINK FAST!)
-----------------------------------------------------------
WORLD BURNS TO DEATH - The graveyard of utopia LP 10.50 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. Eight track raging attack of absolute hardcore... with searing guitars, a thundering and rapid fire drum pound, and harsh vocals spitting forth a brutal vision. This third LP from Austin, Texas's WORLD BURNS TO DEATH further evolves and refines their trademark sound as dark, ramcharging ultra-punk comes full circle... Here is the speed and severity of their debut 7''s and the refinement, heaviness and precision of their two previous landmark albums on Hardcore Holocaust Records. "The Graveyard of Utopia" was tracked initially in Tokyo, Japan after the WB2D 2007 Japanese tour at the legendary Our House studios (Where a majority of the classic Tokyo hardcore records have been recorded since the 1980s) with final recording tweaks and mixing done at THE BUBBLE in Austin (who have recorded everything from BUILT TO SPILL and THE MEAT PUPPETS, to SIGNAL LOST's 'Prosthetic Screams"). The result is the band's strongest offering to date. Studio time in Tokyo allowed for guest appearances from luminari
es from the Japanese Punk scene- with backing vocals on from Ishiya FORWARD and Iizawa BASTARD/JUDGEMENT as well as guest guitar solos from Souichi FORWARD and Keiro AKUTARE and Chelsea DEATHSIDE/PAINTBOX. Backing vocals from Ashley SIGNAL LOST. While WB2D's lyrics have always been caged in historical reference, the theme of this LP is rooted in the failures, disasters and massacres of the Soviet State Apparatus. Comes with heavyweight LP-sleeve and a 12- page booklet. (2008/PRANK)
-----------------------------------------------------------
YEARS SPENT COLD - Moving heaven to hell CD 10.90 EUR
METALCORE. Smashing their way out of the Garden State since their uprising in 2004, YEARS SPENT COLD has proven themselves as a blunt relentless force throughout the hardcore/metal community. Solidifying their posture through the combination of current death metal intensity and underlining classic New Jersey hardcore attitude, their sound is uncompromised. With a number of tours already under their belt, YEARS SPENT COLD is ready to tear through any obstacle in their way. Their Eulogy Recordings debut full-length "Moving heaven to hell" will serve as a testament to the bands ferocious sound and steadfast dexterity. (2008/EULOGY)
