Posted on April 7, 2011  |  Filed Under Hardcore Records  |  Leave a Comment

From Southern Lord: "Southern Lord is very honoured to be asked to release the very latest recordings by OFF! The two songs were cranked out this last February with the urgent intention of recording (and releasing) something special for their 1st ever US tour alongside Trash Talk. "Compared to What" features original music by OFF! with the lyrics written by Eugene McDaniels and later recorded and made famous by Les McCann (along w/ Eddie Harris ) and Roberta Flack. "Rotten Apple" is a 60s’ garage rock stormer by a band called ID interpreted with a venomous, ultra-bruising stomp that effectively breathes vigor into the jam. Both the tour version (Vans Shoe blue vinyl) and LA Riots cover (Red vinyl) version are available."

Apparently these are selling like hot cakes, so act fast if you want one.

From Reaper Records: "Baltimore seems to be ablaze with the spirit of hardcore. One would have to be dead to not feel the energy pulsing from this east coast seaport. From this inferno emerges yet another band that will keep you excited song after song after effing song. TURNSTILE had released there demo, free on the internet just last year. The band claims TRAPPED UNDER ICEs drummer Brendan Yates as there frontman. What he captures as the driving rhythms in T.U.I, he transforms into a frantic vocal energy. With a band as enthusiastic, as they are young backing this, the output is knocking people backwards. Reaper is proud to announce Turnstile as its newest family member. Look forward to their March 2011 6 song e.p. "Pressure to Succeed" to knock you flat on your ass. Your Welcome."

Apparently the new Praise "Two Songs" 7" on React! Records has a more Revolution Summer era influence than the first one, so I'm guessing the title is an homage to Fugazi's "Three Songs". Artwork was done by Jason Mazzola (Cloak/Dagger, Count Me Out).

Halo of Flies Records is now taking pre-orders for the repress of Masakari's "Eden Compromised" 7".

From Halo of Flies: "Four-track EP of burly metallic core from Ohio, colliding intricate Burning Spirits-influenced Japanese-style hardcore with (the admittedly Japanese influenced) TRAGEDY-ish apocalyptic crust. Cut and recorded with a raw edge akin to the AWAKENING or FIGHTING DOGS, where the solos squeal out of a grimy mass of dark distortion, hoarse throaty vocals cough and bark off vocals similar to something you'd find on a '90s Japanese crust release (COLLAPSE SOCIETY? CROCODILE SKINK? HUMPTY DUMPTY? Somewhere in that direction), spewing doom-laden poetic lyrics about war and religion. Solid delivery;crank up another winner from Halo of Flies Records!"

A 7" pressing of the demo from one of our favorite new bands, Melbourne Australia's RECKLESS AGGRESSION. While the sound quality is what you would expect from a lo fi demo tape recording, the power and ferocity of the songs is still there.

From REACT! Records: "This 3 song 7” brings out the best of this Chilean group who look forward to continue inspiring and reminding that hardcore can be a combination of emotional and political views. Starting in 2008 Remission is the creation of four friends where ideological and musical diversity flows. After demo tape (that has recently been released in 7" format) came their 2009 debut LP entitled "Accept". Both were well received and drew comparisons to Verbal Assault and 411, which are good references to describe the heavy guitar work that fuels the music. These records caught the attention of quite a few of the R! Crew and after some great conversation with the singer Philippe we all agreed that Remission would make a badass addition to the roster."
