A LOSS FOR WORDS - No sanctuary LPcol/CD 16.50/13.90 EUR
EMO/INDIE/PUNK. In a world where some bands are handed everything on a silver platter, there are also bands who have worked for everything they have. Boston popped-up Punk outfit A LOSS FOR WORDS is at the top of that list. Having worked relentlessly, touring and doing everything DIY for years they are a group with unstoppable dedication, perseverance and creativity. Touring with a diverse group of bands such as FOUR YEAR STRONG, IN FEAR AND FAITH, SET YOUR GOALS and A GHOST ASIDE. A LOSS FOR WORDS is able to bring their infectious tunes to all audiences in the all-ages scene. Vinyl version includes digital MP3 version. (2011/RISE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
ABOLITION / HANG THE BASTARD - Split 7'' 5.50 EUR
HARDCORE. Two of the UK's brightest, heavy Hardcore bands unite on this split 7" with ABOLITION drenched in the chuggy world of TRIAL and visceral rage of CHOKEHOLD and HANG THE BASTARD dipping their toes into INTEGRITY's back catalog, bringing a '90s Cleveland sound. (2011/DISPOSABLE CULTURE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
AIDEN - Some kind of hate CD 11.90 EUR
EMO/METAL. Riding the wave of their impressive fifth full-length album "Disguises" earlier this year, AIDEN strike again with a one-two punch and will unleash "Some Kind Of Hate''. After a national tour in support of "Disguises," AIDEN quickly went back to work on writing another full-length studio album proving that nothing can slow down the Seattle Punkrock veterans. "Some Kind Of Hate" continues to build on AIDEN's gritty, rebellious and controversial brand of Rock 'n' Roll their cult of adoring fans have come to love. The band hammers out new songs from "Some Kind Of Hate" when they bring their always raw and intense live show across North America this fall with GOOD CHARLOTTE and BLACK VEIL BRIDES. (2011/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
AMEBIX - Sonic mass CD/LPpic 12.50/15.90 EUR
CRUST-METAL. AMEBIX formed in the late 70s and hailed as the godfathers of Crust Punk and extreme Metal. They created their own mystical sound that generations of Crust bands absorbed. But over 20 years ago Rob Miller turned his back on the world, settled in the remote location of the Isle of Skye, and against the rugged backdrop of the Cuillins, became a self-taught sword smith. History saw AMEBIX become a casualty of their cult success coupled with record company wrangling. Ricocheting from their Devon school, to a Dartmoor manor house to the squats of Bristol, the band became the first UK signing to Jello Biafra's label, Alternative Tentacles. AMEBIX delivered the album 'Arise' for the label in 1985, followed by 'Monolith' for Heavy Metal Records in 1987. Upon returning AMEBIX to active status, brothers Rob & Stig were delighted to find the bands influence had extended across the Atlantic to long-time fan, Roy Mayorga (Soulfly, Stone Sour), who jumped at the chance to become part of the band. These nine new songs represent the past, present, and future of the band, and will enthrall and inspire longtime fans and new converts alike. As dark, crushing, and honest as anything on their classics ''Arise!'' and ''Monolith'', but imbued with a lifetime of hardship, raw emotion, and eternal hope, ''Sonic Mass'' is the album AMEBIX have always wanted to create. Available as a Picture-LP and soon on red vinyl with a gatefold cover. We keep you posted on the release of the 'normal' LP. (2011/EASY ACTION)
-----------------------------------------------------------
BABY WOODROSE - Love comes down LP/CD 13.90/14.90 EUR
GARAGE/STONER. This album only came out in Scandinavia and all 500 copies sold out immediately. That's why BABY WOODROSEs ''Love comes down" is considered the band's ''lost'' album. This is probably their most powerful album, a 45-minute trip through all lows and heights of Garage-Rock, Psychedelia and Stoner Rock in songs like ''Cherry bomb'' or ''The keeper''. Help was provided by Eduardo Martinez (THE FLAMING SIDEBURNS) und Yebo (THE TREMOLO BEER GUT). If you need one album of this band, it's definitely this one. (2011/BAD AFRO)
-----------------------------------------------------------
BANNER PILOT - Heart beats pacific LP/CD 11.90/9.50 EUR
PUNK. BANNER PILOT's 2011 Fat Wreck effort "Heart Beats Pacific" continues to deliver the gruff-vocaled, melodic Punkrock that takes cues from the classics DILLINGER FOUR, JAWBREAKER, LAWRENCE ARMS and ALKALINE TRIO. (2011/FAT WRECK)
-----------------------------------------------------------
BLINK 182 - Neighborhoods DoLPcol 23.90 EUR
PUNK. Their first album since their 2009 reunion, "Neighborhoods" finds BLINK 182 still relatively immature and delivering the same poppy Punk goods millions have grown to love. ATTENTION: The vinyl version was first announced as a normal LP but came out as a 2xLP for a much higher price but with 2 LP only bonus tracks and 14 songs all in all. (2011/DGC)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CARNIFEX - Until I feel nothing CD 11.90 EUR
METAL. CARNIFEX has mastered the unique combination of varying facets of extreme Metal including crushing Death Metal grooves, fast-paced Trash Metal guitar work and alternating raspy Black Metal vocals with guttural Death Metal growls. "Until I Feel Nothing" is an unrelenting and intense piece of work with dense galloping riffs, sharp pinch harmonics, fierce blast beats and devastating breakdowns. (2011/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CEREBRAL BALLZY - Same DoCD/CD 16.90/13.90 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. It’s still the 1980s … or at least punk band CEREBRAL BALLZY from Brooklyn thinks it is on their debut self-titled album. Their style of Hardcore sounds eerily close to the initial wave of Hardcore that dominated the West Coast. Fitting for a band of skaters, CEREBRAL BALLZY play short, fast songs about skating, being a punk and relationships. The beer swilling pizza-junkies have been touring relentlessly in the US, UK and Europe with bands such as OFF! and FUCKED UP, marking their territory with an unforgettable live show. No wonder they are in everbody's mouth and ears at the moment. Old-school as old-school can be 12 songs in 19 minutes! The album was recorded in LA with Joby J Ford, the man behind fellow Hardcore enthusiasts TRASH TALK. It’s faster than amphetamine-fuelled lightning and proof that for Cerebral Ballzy, the band is a necessity. These guys are kicking the shit back into the New York Punk scene so hard they could probably single-handedly re-open CBGB’s. They released this album on Cooking Vinyl and the vinyl price was so cooking high that the distributor chose not to distribute it! There should be another version on another label some time. Deluxe double CD commes with a handful of bonus live tracks. (2011/COOKING VINYL)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CHAOS DESTROY / NEKROMANTIKER - Split 7'' 4.90 EUR
NOISE / PUNK. For all the real noise heroes, a pairing of two of the world's shining stars of noise, bound by a love of raw fidelity and eccentric taste. This record sees CHAOS DESTROY in a transition period between the STATE CHILDREN-worshiping shit Noise Punk of their early material and their current proclivity towards Psych Noise Pop, to be seen on their upcoming LP. Bouncing Pop bass lines fit into drill beats and distortion. NEKROMANTIKER obviously studied their CONFUSE records well, but applied a TOKYO SOUND SYSTEM/NEW SMELL sense of production, ie. piss raw, see bank officer for fidelity. Beautiful, just beautiful. As with all Chaos Destroy records, this is limited to 300. (2011/SPHC)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CHOKEBORE - Falls best MLP 8.50 EUR
POST-ROCK. Innovators of the then-emerging Sadcore movement in the 1990s, CHOKEBORE quickly became a cult band because of their unique sound and their amazing strength on stage. The group was formed in Honolulu in the early '90s and moved to Los Angeles in 1992. Shortly after the move, they were signed to Amphetamine Reptile records in 1993. Playing with bands like bands like the BUTTHOLE SURFERS, GIRLS AGAINST BOYS, UNWOUND, CAT POWER, PULP and 10 shows with NIRVANA on their final American tour helped CHOKEBORE solidify their growing reputation. They helped to shape the term Post-Rock and released five albums that are now considered Indie masterpieces and influenced countless new bands around the globe. This is CHOKEBORE's new EP, their first record in eight years. Comes with a download. (2011/VICIOUS CIRCLE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CLOSE YOUR EYES - Empty hands and heavy hearts CD 11.90 EUR
HARDCORE.Vinyl postponed to 01.11.2011. Abilene, TX melodic Hardcore band CLOSE YOUR EYES opened the ears and hearts of fans and critics around the world with their debut album, "We Will Overcome." CLOSE YOUR EYES again deliver their inspiring message on their highly-anticipated sophomore release, "Empty Hands And Heavy Hearts." The dynamic anthems on "Empty Hands And Heavy Hearts" are comprised of strong and honest vocals ranging from vibrant hooks to pile-up worthy gang chants, monstrous guitar riffs and powerhouse drums. (2011/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
COUNTERPARTS - The current will carry us CD 11.90 EUR
HARDCORE. COUNTERPARTS come from the working class Canadian city of Hamilton and bring that hard-working attitude to their debut release for Victory Records, unleashing passionate, heavy and epic modern Hardcore played with the same fire as bands like COMEBACK KID, CLOSE YOUR EYES, and A DAY TO REMEMBER. (2011/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CRAFT - Void CD 14.90 EUR
BLACK METAL. Swedish Black Metallers CRAFT bring forth their fourth effort, "Void," a 9-track convoy of punishing Black Metal hymns over 45 minutes, exploring some crushing new angles as well as revisiting some of the band's earlier, scathing days. The release wholly channels the band's obvious, endless hate unto the human population. (2011/SOUTHERN LORD)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CROWD CONTROL - Same 7'' 5.50 EUR
HARDCORE/POWERVIOLENCE. Heavy and metallic, CROWD CONTROL come from the UK with punishing Hardcore/Powerviolence that crosses over between the Grind and the INTEGRITY-inspired "Holy Terror" sound, bringing to mind bands like BLIND TO FAITH and the aforementioned INTEGRITY, with BASTARD and CITIZENS ARREST covers thrown in. (2011/DISPOSABLE CULTURE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
DEAD ELEPHANT - Thanatology LP 17.50 EUR
METAL. One one the most unique approaches to heavy music that you will hear this year. DEAD ELEPHANT from Italy formed in 2002 and have previously released ''Sing the seperation'' (2005) followed by the critically acclaimed ''Lowest shared descent'' (2008). This year, they finally close the four year gap with a brand new and beastly album ''Thanatology'', an album that aims to investigate the process of acceptance of loss, a concept particularly timely in these transitional times in which we live. From the consciousness that some things must die for change to be born, DEAD ELEPHANT's powerful sonic assault has a wide range of influences from the heaviness of bands like CHERUBS, JESUS LIZARD, COLOSSAMITE, MELVINS, BLACK SABBATH, CELTIC FROST to the psychedelic attitudes of ASH RA TEMPEL, CLUSTER, NEUROSIS and Badalamenti soundtracks, all prevalent throughout this latest record. ''Thanatology'' attacks the listener with their claustrophobic and visceral sonic forces and fuse these brutally heavy sounds with moments of genuine haunting beauty, which are actual samples of the funeral marches of Southern Italy. The effects of these galvanizing forces are that of ultimate catharsis that not only challenge the listener, but also force one to question preconceptions of heavy music. For fans of TODAY IS THE DAY, NEUROSIS, LAUDANUM, MELVINS, GODFLESH. Limited edition 500 only CD with 8 page booklet and 200 only vinyl LP with printed inner bag. (2011/RIOT SEASON)
-----------------------------------------------------------
DEAD TO ME - Moscow Penny Ante LP/CD 11.90/9.50 EUR
PUNK. With more up tempo and straight forward songs than their last album, "Moscow penny ante" revisits and updates the classic sound that first caught everyone’s attention on 2006’s ''Cuban Ballerina''. (2011/FAT WRECK)
-----------------------------------------------------------
DON'T - Away, away LP 11.90 EUR
PUNK. DON’T formed in the Spring of 2009 when four people from very disparate musical backgrounds got together to exchange musical ideas. What began as a few tentative practice sessions evolved with an almost alchemic ease into a cohesive group of songs. Armed with a live set of powerful and moving songs, they began playing around their native Northwest with diverse and eclectic line-ups of bands to enthusiastic crowds. After two years of honing their skills as a live band, DON’T has released their first full-length LP album, entitled "Away, Away". Featuring a line-up of seasoned musical veterans, the band boasts a resume that includes an impressive list of premier Northwest bands. The combined talents of Drummer Sam Henry (THE WIPERS, NAPALM BEACH, THE RATS), singer Jenny Don’t (LADIES OF THE NIGHT), bassist Dave Minick (NAPALM BEACH), and guitarist Dan Lowinger (KASEY ANDERSON, KATE MANN, LANA REBEL AND THE LOVE LASERS, THE HONEYMOONS OVER, etc.) form a genre-blurring blend that spans the musical spectrum from melodic Punkrock with surf overtones to an atmospheric wall of emotive and evocative sounds. Think SIOUXSIE sharing a fifth of Southern Comfort with the MERMEN in the back of WILLIE NELSON’s tour bus while listening to the WIPERS. (2011/DOOMTOWN SOUNDS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
END OF A YEAR - The sorrowful and immaculate heart of Emanuela Orlandi 7'' 5.50 EUR
POST-HARDCORE. Pressed for their UK tour, some of these 7"s made it back to the states for distro. These 3 tracks find Albany, NY's END OF A YEAR continuing to play "Revolution Summer"-inspired Hardcore-Punk with Post-Punk and Indie melody and a storytelling lyrical delivery. (2011/DISPOSABLE CULTURE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
FEEDERZ - Ever felt like killing your boss? LP 14.90 EUR
PUNK. A reissue of the legendary and hard-to-catch Punkrock classic from '83 reissued by the band for their own aims and purposes. All 17 songs remastered to sound better than the original and closer to the way the band had imagined them, including their infamous "Jesus". Packaged with a fold-out poster with lyrics, notes, and a comic, as well as a black piece of sandpaper on the cover à la the original version. (2002/BROKEN REKIDS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
FORMBY CHANNEL - The inimitable 7'' 4.90 EUR
PUNK. Members of The WANKYS, HEALTH HAZARD, and ATOMGEVITTER with awonderfully, funny and excellently crafted record. This is an interesting take on later SWANKYS material, matching noise guitars and obnoxious vocals with backing "whoaaa"s and "la la la"s, CRASS style drumming, and really catchy Pop songwriting. While SPHC ordinarily doesn't approve of "funny business" when it comes to records/bands......this one is a great listen. (2011/SPHC)
-----------------------------------------------------------
H2O - New York City 7''col 4.90 EUR
HARDCORE. Three more cover songs from H2O, this time representing NYC. "Hard Times" by the CRO-MAGS, "Friends Like You" by SICK OF IT ALL, and "Pride" by MADBALL. (2011/BRIDGE NINE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
INSERVIBLES - Same LP 14.90 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. Coming from Mexico, a country where street executions and drug Lords are at war with everybody, INSERVIBLES can be described as the soundtrack of the Mexican nightmare. Their deranged hybrid of negative Hardcore with no-fi garage as been compared to NERORGASMO, RAW POWER, VOID or THE REATARDS. The 13 tracks contained in this LP may bring to mind some of those bands but there is something else behind all those layers of filth they call music. Acid lyrics with a macabre sense of humour, laughing as a statement against the world and a continuous vile-spit on the face of formal folklore. All housed in a tasteless jacket designed Yecatl Peña. LP co-released with Shogun Records from France. (2011/LA VIDA ES UN MUS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
JESU - Same DoLP/CD 25.90/14.50 EUR
DRONE. Few albums represent an individual and genre defining milestone as does the self-titled album from Justin Boradrick's JESU. Combining the considerable sonic weight of GODFLESH with brittle melancholy melodies in hypnotic long-form structures, it provided ample evidence of Broadrick's myriad capabilities as a songwriter and ceaselessly creative musical innovator. Though JESU went on to mine those more harmonious aspects of its sound on subsequent releases to great effect, none rivaled this debut in its perfectly crafted mixture of beauty, heaviness, hope and despair. Now available on vinyl. Limited edition of 500 copies. (2011/HYDRA HEAD)
-----------------------------------------------------------
LAST STAND, THE - Demo 7''col 5.50 EUR
NY-HARDCORE. Featuring Mike from INHUMAN on vocals and Dion, Steven, and Jimmy from Victory Records' SHUTDOWN, THE LAST STAND represent Brooklyn, NY with this demo of pure, positive NYHC in the same vein as SICK OF IT ALL and MADBALL. Now available on colored vinyl with one additional track. (2011/1124)
-----------------------------------------------------------
LIVSTID - Same LP/CD 13.50/13.90 EUR
D-BEAT HARDCORE. You want D-Beat in its purest form? You get it! This is LIVSTID's first full-length album with 16 anthemic tracks against all wrongs in a pig society nailed down with a big DISCHARGE. WOLFPACK and MOTÖRHEAD hammer! Legend goes that in order to realize the accurate sound, the band put singer Kristian on a steady diet of alcohol, chweing tobacco and dry bread. The poor guy lost it completely and started to bark like a mad dog. The album was recorded by the band and mixed/mastered by Dag Erik "Dagger" Nygaard of IOU.
LIVSTID's first full-length album = New Norwegian hatred! (2011/FYSISK FORMAT)
-----------------------------------------------------------
MIELENHAIRIO - 1985 LP 14.50 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. This is Finnish Hardcore at its best with 17 tracks in total. MIELENHAIRIO were from Vaasa and released three 7" EPs. The first one was one-sided with very poor sound quality , and it was a freebie with Lihanukke #9 ‘zine in 1985, with no cover or anything. The second 7"EP "Mieleharrio II" was released in 1986 as well as the third one which was called "Sahkokatkos." The band later changed their name to VIHAN LAPSET and later LAPSET (and didn't play Punk any more). Two of the members started KLAMYDIAA - a RAMONES style Punk band with funny lyrics which later became one of the most popular bands in Finland and is still active, with the same vocalist. (2011/QUEER PILLS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
NEMESIS - Dou koku 7'' 5.50 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. Hailing from Fukuoka, Japan, NEMESIS is a young band taking cues from UK Hardcore-Punk but played with the speed and intensity of early WARHEAD / NIGHTMARE, with an underlying Kyushu twist that brings homemates KURO to mind. Aggressive vocals, gang choruses, powerful guitars and intense drumming: unmistakably Japanese, this band carries on in the tradition of the SELFISH / BLOOD SUCKER / DISCRETE RECORDS roster. Four tracks that go for the throat. Raw and pure energy. (2011/SOLAR FUNERAL)
-----------------------------------------------------------
O' BROTHER - The death of day MLPcol 13.90 EUR
INDIE/ROCK. O' BROTHER's "The Death Of Day" was originally released in 2009 and captures the first 5 songs from this uniquely dynamic, Georgia-based band who would go on to draw comparison to CIRCA SURVIVE, MUSE and DEFTONES. Recorded by Brad Fisher with the help of MANCHESTER ORCHESTRA's Andy Hull, the EP was recorded live, maintaining the band's on stage energy and essence. Limited edition of 500 copies. (2011/ANIMAL STYLE)

POST-ROCK/INSTRUMENATL. Vinyl available 04.11.2011. "Empros" picks up where the anthemic riffs and melodies of 2009's "Geneva" left off and injects ever more slithering rhythms amid skull-crushing heft with all the visceral intensity of GODFLESH, SWANS and NEUROSIS.

PUNK. Straight out of the squats of NYC, SFH is a veritable who's who of the Punk/Ska/Crust scene.

TONY SLY - Sad bear LP/CD 11.90/9.50 EUR
SINGER/SONGWRITER. Tony's somewhat recent foray into recording as a solo artist has proven to be every bit as fruitful as his 20+ years fronting the legendary punk band No Use For A Name. On his own, Tony trades in the signature electric guitars and aggressive rhythms of NUFAN for a more subdued approach, featuring acoustic instruments and highlighted by his captivating melodies. "Sad Bear" notes a strong progression from Tony's first solo outing with an increased emphasis on varied instrumentation that, while robust, somehow delicately plays off Tony's soothing vocals. (2011/FAT WRECK)
-----------------------------------------------------------
TOTAL ABUSE - Prison sweat LP 13.50 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. On their third LP "Prison Sweat" TOTAL ABUSE blast and sometimes almost sludge through 7 tracks of great Hardcore-Punk (with 2 tracks reaching over the 7 minute mark). Opening with an opus of blistering, seething, crunching noise then bursting into tracks that are as catchy and nauseous as their BLACK FLAG influences. They really turn greg Ginn's darkest sonic fantasies into the most vicious nightmare. This is TOTAL ABUSE at their best and most ferociously open. The band posseses an honesty and anger missing from a lot of their contemporaries allowing them to dwell deep in your brain for a long while after you listen. Includes download. (2011/PPM)
-----------------------------------------------------------
TRANSIT - Listen & forgive LPcol 16.50 EUR
EMO/INDIE/PUNK. Boston, MA's TRANSIT bring their blend of popped-up Punk and "Emo" to Rise Records with "Listen & Forgive," an album that aims to connect with the listener the same way the band has on tours with bands like SENSES FAIL, BAYSIDE, FOUR YEAR STRONG, LESS THAN JAKE and The WONDER YEARS. Now available on colored vinyl. Vinyl version includes digital MP3 version. (2011/RISE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
TRIVIUM - In waves DoLP 17.90 EUR
METALCORE. Alrady the fifth album by British Thrash/MEtalcore sensation TRIVIUM who once more proof that they dominate this genre better than most of fakers. According to the band, this new album is the most complete project they have ever done. Superc oll dual guitar work, this time even harder and more aggressive
while visually and lyrically better than ever. Great band that absolutely deserves to go on tour with IRON MAIDEN, SLIPKNOT and METALLICA. (2011/ROADRUNNER)
-----------------------------------------------------------
VIVID SEKT - Dance among the debris LP 11.90 EUR
PUNK. This is a new 12'' by Portland, OR Peace-Punks VIVID SEKT. Following two EP releases including a split with BOG PEOPLE-a band in which guitarist ALEX also played in-Vivid Sekt returns with more dark Punk anthems which update the moody bass melodies of the MOB with the Punk ferocity of SUBHUMANS to create a new Anarcho Punk classic. The band features members of similarly influenced bands ARCTIC FLOWERS and MORAL HEX but VIVID SEKT is different in that they do not retain the Hardcore elements of the former nor the more New Wave/Post-Punk sounds of the latter proving that VIVID SEKT is a DIY Punk band through and through. Includes download code and huge poster insert with hand drawn artwork that brings the bands message of
righteous paranoia and desperate hope to the viewers immediate attention. (2011/MASS MEDIA)
-----------------------------------------------------------
VOID - Sessions 1981-83 LP/CD 12.90/11.50 EUR
HARDCORE. While organizing the Dischord archive, they came across the 4-track of VOID's first recording session. This was done at Hit And Run Studios in November 1981 and never officially released. The master tape was nowhere to be found so the tape was remixed by Ian MacKaye and Don Zientara at Inner Ear in 2011. This release features that entire session plus their first Inner Ear demo including the "Flex Your Head" cuts and song that ended up on the "Condensed Flesh" 7", 2 outtakes from their second Inner Ear session and a couple of live recordings. (2011/DISCHORD)
-----------------------------------------------------------
VOLUMES - The concept of dreaming CD 8.50 EUR
METAL/HARDCORE. Before signing to Mediaskare, VOLUMES were a local Los Angeles, CA band with a bright future playing locally before busting out and touring with ARSONISTS GET ALL THE GIRLS, IT PREVAILS, BETRAYAL and more. This EP is where it started for the band, with 6 tracks of their signature heaviness delivered more raw. (2011/MEDIASKARE)

A LOSS FOR WORDS - No sanctuary LPcol/CD 16.50/13.90 EUR
EMO/INDIE/PUNK. In a world where some bands are handed everything on a silver platter, there are also bands who have worked for everything they have. Boston popped-up Punk outfit A LOSS FOR WORDS is at the top of that list. Having worked relentlessly, touring and doing everything DIY for years they are a group with unstoppable dedication, perseverance and creativity. Touring with a diverse group of bands such as FOUR YEAR STRONG, IN FEAR AND FAITH, SET YOUR GOALS and A GHOST ASIDE. A LOSS FOR WORDS is able to bring their infectious tunes to all audiences in the all-ages scene. Vinyl version includes digital MP3 version. (2011/RISE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
ABOLITION / HANG THE BASTARD - Split 7'' 5.50 EUR
HARDCORE. Two of the UK's brightest, heavy Hardcore bands unite on this split 7" with ABOLITION drenched in the chuggy world of TRIAL and visceral rage of CHOKEHOLD and HANG THE BASTARD dipping their toes into INTEGRITY's back catalog, bringing a '90s Cleveland sound. (2011/DISPOSABLE CULTURE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
AIDEN - Some kind of hate CD 11.90 EUR
EMO/METAL. Riding the wave of their impressive fifth full-length album "Disguises" earlier this year, AIDEN strike again with a one-two punch and will unleash "Some Kind Of Hate''. After a national tour in support of "Disguises," AIDEN quickly went back to work on writing another full-length studio album proving that nothing can slow down the Seattle Punkrock veterans. "Some Kind Of Hate" continues to build on AIDEN's gritty, rebellious and controversial brand of Rock 'n' Roll their cult of adoring fans have come to love. The band hammers out new songs from "Some Kind Of Hate" when they bring their always raw and intense live show across North America this fall with GOOD CHARLOTTE and BLACK VEIL BRIDES. (2011/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
AMEBIX - Sonic mass CD/LPpic 12.50/15.90 EUR
CRUST-METAL. AMEBIX formed in the late 70s and hailed as the godfathers of Crust Punk and extreme Metal. They created their own mystical sound that generations of Crust bands absorbed. But over 20 years ago Rob Miller turned his back on the world, settled in the remote location of the Isle of Skye, and against the rugged backdrop of the Cuillins, became a self-taught sword smith. History saw AMEBIX become a casualty of their cult success coupled with record company wrangling. Ricocheting from their Devon school, to a Dartmoor manor house to the squats of Bristol, the band became the first UK signing to Jello Biafra's label, Alternative Tentacles. AMEBIX delivered the album 'Arise' for the label in 1985, followed by 'Monolith' for Heavy Metal Records in 1987. Upon returning AMEBIX to active status, brothers Rob & Stig were delighted to find the bands influence had extended across the Atlantic to long-time fan, Roy Mayorga (Soulfly, Stone Sour), who jumped at the chance to become part of the band. These nine new songs represent the past, present, and future of the band, and will enthrall and inspire longtime fans and new converts alike. As dark, crushing, and honest as anything on their classics ''Arise!'' and ''Monolith'', but imbued with a lifetime of hardship, raw emotion, and eternal hope, ''Sonic Mass'' is the album AMEBIX have always wanted to create. Available as a Picture-LP and soon on red vinyl with a gatefold cover. We keep you posted on the release of the 'normal' LP. (2011/EASY ACTION)
-----------------------------------------------------------
BABY WOODROSE - Love comes down LP/CD 13.90/14.90 EUR
GARAGE/STONER. This album only came out in Scandinavia and all 500 copies sold out immediately. That's why BABY WOODROSEs ''Love comes down" is considered the band's ''lost'' album. This is probably their most powerful album, a 45-minute trip through all lows and heights of Garage-Rock, Psychedelia and Stoner Rock in songs like ''Cherry bomb'' or ''The keeper''. Help was provided by Eduardo Martinez (THE FLAMING SIDEBURNS) und Yebo (THE TREMOLO BEER GUT). If you need one album of this band, it's definitely this one. (2011/BAD AFRO)
-----------------------------------------------------------
BANNER PILOT - Heart beats pacific LP/CD 11.90/9.50 EUR
PUNK. BANNER PILOT's 2011 Fat Wreck effort "Heart Beats Pacific" continues to deliver the gruff-vocaled, melodic Punkrock that takes cues from the classics DILLINGER FOUR, JAWBREAKER, LAWRENCE ARMS and ALKALINE TRIO. (2011/FAT WRECK)
-----------------------------------------------------------
BLINK 182 - Neighborhoods DoLPcol 23.90 EUR
PUNK. Their first album since their 2009 reunion, "Neighborhoods" finds BLINK 182 still relatively immature and delivering the same poppy Punk goods millions have grown to love. ATTENTION: The vinyl version was first announced as a normal LP but came out as a 2xLP for a much higher price but with 2 LP only bonus tracks and 14 songs all in all. (2011/DGC)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CARNIFEX - Until I feel nothing CD 11.90 EUR
METAL. CARNIFEX has mastered the unique combination of varying facets of extreme Metal including crushing Death Metal grooves, fast-paced Trash Metal guitar work and alternating raspy Black Metal vocals with guttural Death Metal growls. "Until I Feel Nothing" is an unrelenting and intense piece of work with dense galloping riffs, sharp pinch harmonics, fierce blast beats and devastating breakdowns. (2011/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CEREBRAL BALLZY - Same DoCD/CD 16.90/13.90 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. It’s still the 1980s … or at least punk band CEREBRAL BALLZY from Brooklyn thinks it is on their debut self-titled album. Their style of Hardcore sounds eerily close to the initial wave of Hardcore that dominated the West Coast. Fitting for a band of skaters, CEREBRAL BALLZY play short, fast songs about skating, being a punk and relationships. The beer swilling pizza-junkies have been touring relentlessly in the US, UK and Europe with bands such as OFF! and FUCKED UP, marking their territory with an unforgettable live show. No wonder they are in everbody's mouth and ears at the moment. Old-school as old-school can be 12 songs in 19 minutes! The album was recorded in LA with Joby J Ford, the man behind fellow Hardcore enthusiasts TRASH TALK. It’s faster than amphetamine-fuelled lightning and proof that for Cerebral Ballzy, the band is a necessity. These guys are kicking the shit back into the New York Punk scene so hard they could probably single-handedly re-open CBGB’s. They released this album on Cooking Vinyl and the vinyl price was so cooking high that the distributor chose not to distribute it! There should be another version on another label some time. Deluxe double CD commes with a handful of bonus live tracks. (2011/COOKING VINYL)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CHAOS DESTROY / NEKROMANTIKER - Split 7'' 4.90 EUR
NOISE / PUNK. For all the real noise heroes, a pairing of two of the world's shining stars of noise, bound by a love of raw fidelity and eccentric taste. This record sees CHAOS DESTROY in a transition period between the STATE CHILDREN-worshiping shit Noise Punk of their early material and their current proclivity towards Psych Noise Pop, to be seen on their upcoming LP. Bouncing Pop bass lines fit into drill beats and distortion. NEKROMANTIKER obviously studied their CONFUSE records well, but applied a TOKYO SOUND SYSTEM/NEW SMELL sense of production, ie. piss raw, see bank officer for fidelity. Beautiful, just beautiful. As with all Chaos Destroy records, this is limited to 300. (2011/SPHC)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CHOKEBORE - Falls best MLP 8.50 EUR
POST-ROCK. Innovators of the then-emerging Sadcore movement in the 1990s, CHOKEBORE quickly became a cult band because of their unique sound and their amazing strength on stage. The group was formed in Honolulu in the early '90s and moved to Los Angeles in 1992. Shortly after the move, they were signed to Amphetamine Reptile records in 1993. Playing with bands like bands like the BUTTHOLE SURFERS, GIRLS AGAINST BOYS, UNWOUND, CAT POWER, PULP and 10 shows with NIRVANA on their final American tour helped CHOKEBORE solidify their growing reputation. They helped to shape the term Post-Rock and released five albums that are now considered Indie masterpieces and influenced countless new bands around the globe. This is CHOKEBORE's new EP, their first record in eight years. Comes with a download. (2011/VICIOUS CIRCLE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CLOSE YOUR EYES - Empty hands and heavy hearts CD 11.90 EUR
HARDCORE.Vinyl postponed to 01.11.2011. Abilene, TX melodic Hardcore band CLOSE YOUR EYES opened the ears and hearts of fans and critics around the world with their debut album, "We Will Overcome." CLOSE YOUR EYES again deliver their inspiring message on their highly-anticipated sophomore release, "Empty Hands And Heavy Hearts." The dynamic anthems on "Empty Hands And Heavy Hearts" are comprised of strong and honest vocals ranging from vibrant hooks to pile-up worthy gang chants, monstrous guitar riffs and powerhouse drums. (2011/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
COUNTERPARTS - The current will carry us CD 11.90 EUR
HARDCORE. COUNTERPARTS come from the working class Canadian city of Hamilton and bring that hard-working attitude to their debut release for Victory Records, unleashing passionate, heavy and epic modern Hardcore played with the same fire as bands like COMEBACK KID, CLOSE YOUR EYES, and A DAY TO REMEMBER. (2011/VICTORY)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CRAFT - Void CD 14.90 EUR
BLACK METAL. Swedish Black Metallers CRAFT bring forth their fourth effort, "Void," a 9-track convoy of punishing Black Metal hymns over 45 minutes, exploring some crushing new angles as well as revisiting some of the band's earlier, scathing days. The release wholly channels the band's obvious, endless hate unto the human population. (2011/SOUTHERN LORD)
-----------------------------------------------------------
CROWD CONTROL - Same 7'' 5.50 EUR
HARDCORE/POWERVIOLENCE. Heavy and metallic, CROWD CONTROL come from the UK with punishing Hardcore/Powerviolence that crosses over between the Grind and the INTEGRITY-inspired "Holy Terror" sound, bringing to mind bands like BLIND TO FAITH and the aforementioned INTEGRITY, with BASTARD and CITIZENS ARREST covers thrown in. (2011/DISPOSABLE CULTURE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
DEAD ELEPHANT - Thanatology LP 17.50 EUR
METAL. One one the most unique approaches to heavy music that you will hear this year. DEAD ELEPHANT from Italy formed in 2002 and have previously released ''Sing the seperation'' (2005) followed by the critically acclaimed ''Lowest shared descent'' (2008). This year, they finally close the four year gap with a brand new and beastly album ''Thanatology'', an album that aims to investigate the process of acceptance of loss, a concept particularly timely in these transitional times in which we live. From the consciousness that some things must die for change to be born, DEAD ELEPHANT's powerful sonic assault has a wide range of influences from the heaviness of bands like CHERUBS, JESUS LIZARD, COLOSSAMITE, MELVINS, BLACK SABBATH, CELTIC FROST to the psychedelic attitudes of ASH RA TEMPEL, CLUSTER, NEUROSIS and Badalamenti soundtracks, all prevalent throughout this latest record. ''Thanatology'' attacks the listener with their claustrophobic and visceral sonic forces and fuse these brutally heavy sounds with moments of genuine haunting beauty, which are actual samples of the funeral marches of Southern Italy. The effects of these galvanizing forces are that of ultimate catharsis that not only challenge the listener, but also force one to question preconceptions of heavy music. For fans of TODAY IS THE DAY, NEUROSIS, LAUDANUM, MELVINS, GODFLESH. Limited edition 500 only CD with 8 page booklet and 200 only vinyl LP with printed inner bag. (2011/RIOT SEASON)
-----------------------------------------------------------
DEAD TO ME - Moscow Penny Ante LP/CD 11.90/9.50 EUR
PUNK. With more up tempo and straight forward songs than their last album, "Moscow penny ante" revisits and updates the classic sound that first caught everyone’s attention on 2006’s ''Cuban Ballerina''. (2011/FAT WRECK)
-----------------------------------------------------------
DON'T - Away, away LP 11.90 EUR
PUNK. DON’T formed in the Spring of 2009 when four people from very disparate musical backgrounds got together to exchange musical ideas. What began as a few tentative practice sessions evolved with an almost alchemic ease into a cohesive group of songs. Armed with a live set of powerful and moving songs, they began playing around their native Northwest with diverse and eclectic line-ups of bands to enthusiastic crowds. After two years of honing their skills as a live band, DON’T has released their first full-length LP album, entitled "Away, Away". Featuring a line-up of seasoned musical veterans, the band boasts a resume that includes an impressive list of premier Northwest bands. The combined talents of Drummer Sam Henry (THE WIPERS, NAPALM BEACH, THE RATS), singer Jenny Don’t (LADIES OF THE NIGHT), bassist Dave Minick (NAPALM BEACH), and guitarist Dan Lowinger (KASEY ANDERSON, KATE MANN, LANA REBEL AND THE LOVE LASERS, THE HONEYMOONS OVER, etc.) form a genre-blurring blend that spans the musical spectrum from melodic Punkrock with surf overtones to an atmospheric wall of emotive and evocative sounds. Think SIOUXSIE sharing a fifth of Southern Comfort with the MERMEN in the back of WILLIE NELSON’s tour bus while listening to the WIPERS. (2011/DOOMTOWN SOUNDS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
END OF A YEAR - The sorrowful and immaculate heart of Emanuela Orlandi 7'' 5.50 EUR
POST-HARDCORE. Pressed for their UK tour, some of these 7"s made it back to the states for distro. These 3 tracks find Albany, NY's END OF A YEAR continuing to play "Revolution Summer"-inspired Hardcore-Punk with Post-Punk and Indie melody and a storytelling lyrical delivery. (2011/DISPOSABLE CULTURE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
FEEDERZ - Ever felt like killing your boss? LP 14.90 EUR
PUNK. A reissue of the legendary and hard-to-catch Punkrock classic from '83 reissued by the band for their own aims and purposes. All 17 songs remastered to sound better than the original and closer to the way the band had imagined them, including their infamous "Jesus". Packaged with a fold-out poster with lyrics, notes, and a comic, as well as a black piece of sandpaper on the cover à la the original version. (2002/BROKEN REKIDS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
FORMBY CHANNEL - The inimitable 7'' 4.90 EUR
PUNK. Members of The WANKYS, HEALTH HAZARD, and ATOMGEVITTER with awonderfully, funny and excellently crafted record. This is an interesting take on later SWANKYS material, matching noise guitars and obnoxious vocals with backing "whoaaa"s and "la la la"s, CRASS style drumming, and really catchy Pop songwriting. While SPHC ordinarily doesn't approve of "funny business" when it comes to records/bands......this one is a great listen. (2011/SPHC)
-----------------------------------------------------------
H2O - New York City 7''col 4.90 EUR
HARDCORE. Three more cover songs from H2O, this time representing NYC. "Hard Times" by the CRO-MAGS, "Friends Like You" by SICK OF IT ALL, and "Pride" by MADBALL. (2011/BRIDGE NINE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
INSERVIBLES - Same LP 14.90 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. Coming from Mexico, a country where street executions and drug Lords are at war with everybody, INSERVIBLES can be described as the soundtrack of the Mexican nightmare. Their deranged hybrid of negative Hardcore with no-fi garage as been compared to NERORGASMO, RAW POWER, VOID or THE REATARDS. The 13 tracks contained in this LP may bring to mind some of those bands but there is something else behind all those layers of filth they call music. Acid lyrics with a macabre sense of humour, laughing as a statement against the world and a continuous vile-spit on the face of formal folklore. All housed in a tasteless jacket designed Yecatl Peña. LP co-released with Shogun Records from France. (2011/LA VIDA ES UN MUS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
JESU - Same DoLP/CD 25.90/14.50 EUR
DRONE. Few albums represent an individual and genre defining milestone as does the self-titled album from Justin Boradrick's JESU. Combining the considerable sonic weight of GODFLESH with brittle melancholy melodies in hypnotic long-form structures, it provided ample evidence of Broadrick's myriad capabilities as a songwriter and ceaselessly creative musical innovator. Though JESU went on to mine those more harmonious aspects of its sound on subsequent releases to great effect, none rivaled this debut in its perfectly crafted mixture of beauty, heaviness, hope and despair. Now available on vinyl. Limited edition of 500 copies. (2011/HYDRA HEAD)
-----------------------------------------------------------
LAST STAND, THE - Demo 7''col 5.50 EUR
NY-HARDCORE. Featuring Mike from INHUMAN on vocals and Dion, Steven, and Jimmy from Victory Records' SHUTDOWN, THE LAST STAND represent Brooklyn, NY with this demo of pure, positive NYHC in the same vein as SICK OF IT ALL and MADBALL. Now available on colored vinyl with one additional track. (2011/1124)
-----------------------------------------------------------
LIVSTID - Same LP/CD 13.50/13.90 EUR
D-BEAT HARDCORE. You want D-Beat in its purest form? You get it! This is LIVSTID's first full-length album with 16 anthemic tracks against all wrongs in a pig society nailed down with a big DISCHARGE. WOLFPACK and MOTÖRHEAD hammer! Legend goes that in order to realize the accurate sound, the band put singer Kristian on a steady diet of alcohol, chweing tobacco and dry bread. The poor guy lost it completely and started to bark like a mad dog. The album was recorded by the band and mixed/mastered by Dag Erik "Dagger" Nygaard of IOU.
LIVSTID's first full-length album = New Norwegian hatred! (2011/FYSISK FORMAT)
-----------------------------------------------------------
MIELENHAIRIO - 1985 LP 14.50 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. This is Finnish Hardcore at its best with 17 tracks in total. MIELENHAIRIO were from Vaasa and released three 7" EPs. The first one was one-sided with very poor sound quality , and it was a freebie with Lihanukke #9 ‘zine in 1985, with no cover or anything. The second 7"EP "Mieleharrio II" was released in 1986 as well as the third one which was called "Sahkokatkos." The band later changed their name to VIHAN LAPSET and later LAPSET (and didn't play Punk any more). Two of the members started KLAMYDIAA - a RAMONES style Punk band with funny lyrics which later became one of the most popular bands in Finland and is still active, with the same vocalist. (2011/QUEER PILLS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
NEMESIS - Dou koku 7'' 5.50 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. Hailing from Fukuoka, Japan, NEMESIS is a young band taking cues from UK Hardcore-Punk but played with the speed and intensity of early WARHEAD / NIGHTMARE, with an underlying Kyushu twist that brings homemates KURO to mind. Aggressive vocals, gang choruses, powerful guitars and intense drumming: unmistakably Japanese, this band carries on in the tradition of the SELFISH / BLOOD SUCKER / DISCRETE RECORDS roster. Four tracks that go for the throat. Raw and pure energy. (2011/SOLAR FUNERAL)
-----------------------------------------------------------
O' BROTHER - The death of day MLPcol 13.90 EUR
INDIE/ROCK. O' BROTHER's "The Death Of Day" was originally released in 2009 and captures the first 5 songs from this uniquely dynamic, Georgia-based band who would go on to draw comparison to CIRCA SURVIVE, MUSE and DEFTONES. Recorded by Brad Fisher with the help of MANCHESTER ORCHESTRA's Andy Hull, the EP was recorded live, maintaining the band's on stage energy and essence. Limited edition of 500 copies. (2011/ANIMAL STYLE)
-----------------------------------------------------------
OFFSEASON, THE - Pride and progress / Goin' for broke CD 7.50 EUR
EMO/INDIE/PUNK. This disc compiles the first two EPs from up-and-coming Boston, MA popped-up Punk band The OFFSEASON, who, despite forming in 2010 have already done these two EPs, plus played a multitude of shows in the northeast alongside TRANSIT, WITH THE PUNCHES and SENSES FAIL. (2011/BARRETT)
-----------------------------------------------------------
P.R.O.B.L.E.M.S. - Make it through the night LP 11.90 EUR
HARDCORE-PUNK. Ex-members-of POISON IDEA, DETESTATION, SEVERED HEAD OF STATE…After three EPS that sold like hotcakes, here's the first long release with 9 tracks of pure Portland Hardcore-Punk power. Not to be missed. (2011/DOOMTOWN SOUNDS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
QUEERS, THE - Grow up LP 12.90 EUR
PUNK. Originally released in 1990, the debut full-length from The QUEERS has been completely remixed and remastered with a few bonus tracks from the original recording session, capturing the earliest inception of their signature surfy Pop meets the RAMONES sound, with plenty of songs about girls. Now available once more on vinyl. (2011/ASIAN MAN)

TONY SLY - Sad bear LP/CD 11.90/9.50 EUR
SINGER/SONGWRITER. Tony's somewhat recent foray into recording as a solo artist has proven to be every bit as fruitful as his 20+ years fronting the legendary punk band No Use For A Name. On his own, Tony trades in the signature electric guitars and aggressive rhythms of NUFAN for a more subdued approach, featuring acoustic instruments and highlighted by his captivating melodies. "Sad Bear" notes a strong progression from Tony's first solo outing with an increased emphasis on varied instrumentation that, while robust, somehow delicately plays off Tony's soothing vocals.

They really turn greg Ginn's darkest sonic fantasies into the most vicious nightmare. This is TOTAL ABUSE at their best and most ferociously open. The band posseses an honesty and anger missing from a lot of their contemporaries allowing them to dwell deep in your brain for a long while after you listen. Includes download. (2011/PPM)

TRIVIUM - In waves DoLP 17.90 EUR
METALCORE. Alrady the fifth album by British Thrash/MEtalcore sensation TRIVIUM who once more proof that they dominate this genre better than most of fakers.

The band features members of similarly influenced bands ARCTIC FLOWERS and MORAL HEX but VIVID SEKT is different in that they do not retain the Hardcore elements of the former nor the more New Wave/Post-Punk sounds of the latter proving that VIVID SEKT is a DIY Punk band through and through.

righteous paranoia and desperate hope to the viewers immediate attention. (2011/MASS MEDIA)
