2021 - 09 - 27 /// Annakarina 12"s go up on Friday at 9am PST

First off, hours of work went into (yet again) the CD and Poster pages, which have been updated to include the letter D. Some stuff you’ll find: Daughters (posters), Daniel Striped Tiger (cds), Dispensing Of False Halos (cd), Deadguy (cd), Dead To Fall (poster), Despistado (poster), Dominic (cd), Downfall Of Gaia (cd), Drowningman (poster), etc.

Secondly, those awesome Annakarina 12”s will go up on our bandcamp and for sale (we only have 20!) so be sure to show up at our regular hour -> 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST.

Lastly, the Karloff music video for “Hibiscus” was released this morning (digitals on Oct. 8th). It’s not for those who can’t handle the heavy or violent. Embedded below.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: SALT MONEY = Very cool Austrian screamo with the occasional cleans that really work. Features members of Spear Of Schlonginus.

2021 - 09 - 26 /// Lower Automation arrives this week!

Blah blah blah, Mr. Norman:

1) Despite a huge reception, we still have some To Be Gentle and Sadness split tapes available. They A) contain amazing material and B) look great.

2) The CD and Poster pages have been updated up to and including the letter C: Cave In (poster/cds), Cavity (poster/cds), Clann Zu (poster), Coalesce (cd), Clouds (poster), Chambers (cd), Combatwoundedveteran (poster), Crocus (cd), Caravels (signed poster), The Catalyst (cd), The Casket Lottery (poster), etc.

3) We will be placing a double discography 12” gatefold as well as the 6-band split 12” orders this week. Both should be out spring 2022.

4) Lower Automation 12”s are paid for and on its way to us. Keep your eyes peeled for pics (and we were given a few extra Nebulas)!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: WARREN OF OHMS = The new ‘Threatening Costume’ full length is sensational. Mixing math, screamo, metal, playfulness and epic hardcore is no easy feat, but I think Sammy has two feet so he’s good to go. My ultimate jam on this is the 7-minute title track closer.

2021 - 09 - 24 /// CD + Poster pages going live @2pm PST!

Hmmmm three things:

1) PayBully issue avoided but account closed, money back, paying for Lower Automation 12”s tomorrow, should have them next week!

2) Smile To The Wind and Nine Eleven videos for Out Past the Rings are up, including the digitals/physicals of the latter.

3) I’ve been working really hard on these poster and cd pages which will launch later today, only one letter will be available at a time (as there are over 500 items for me to list) so we’ll try to get a letter for both the posters and cds done a day (no promises). Today’s first lot includes: Zegema Beach Records Fest posters, the letter A and anything beginning with a symbol or number, including but not limited to: ZBR Fest 2017 (posters), Adorno (cd), A Day In Black And White (cd/poster), Animal Faces (cd/poster), Anodyne (posters), Austerity Program (cd/poster), A Wilhelm Scream (poster), The Assailant (poster), Anodyne (posters), Angstzustand (cd), etc.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: QATSI = The new Russian EP is fucking incredible. FFO: Cassus, Pale Hands, Minaret.

2021 - 09 - 22 /// PayBully for the kill

Jesus H. Cripes, PayBully is back at it again. After releasing the freeze a few days back we poured our money in to pay for the Lower Automation 12”s on Saturday. Today, PayBully froze our account again, thus locking in the money that we need to pay for the vinyl that is holding up the pre-orders that they deemed necessary to take action on. Talk about a catch 22. Fuck you PayBully. We officially give you our middle fingers. Once we get this money back we walk. PayBully will never be an option again.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: SUPINE = Everyone’s already listening to this, methinks. But if you missed out def check. Unreal.

2021 - 09 - 20 /// CD and Poster pages up soon

Yoooooo PayBully is back and we are good to go! We just released the Demersal 7” (available on our bandcamp), the Matsuri/Moldar tour video (on youtube), the shirts page is now up aaaaaaaaand the CD and poster pages coming October 1st! Oh did we mention Lower Automation 12”s will be ready at the plant next week? Mhmm.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: MANSIONS = Not screamo by any means. More look synth/doom rock. It’s amazing and I hadn’t realized they were still active.
