Tristan Tzara releases, Volp next, Telos on sale :(

February 02, 2024 by David Norman

Tristan Tzara’s ‘discography’ released two days ago with the mages and tacos immediately selling out, with the random color following (as we currently have 4 left), with black dwindling after that and a handful of metallic reds that should be in stock at least until summer. So if you’re picky I wouldn’t wait, but if metallic red is your game there’s no massive rush <3 Remember European friends can order from Dog Knights and Voice Of The Unheard. Shove Records in Italy will also get at least 10 copies in the near future.

Telos released an truly incredible album…then they broke up. Absolutely gutted. We’ve put the tapes on sale for the next week in case you want to pick one up, as we won’t be making more!

TELOS - Delude (cassette)

from CA$12.50

TELOS ‘Delude’ cassette LP (TT079)

For fans of: Hexis, Rotting In Dirt, Malevich, and I Am A Curse.

Denmark’s finest blackened hardcore/metal supergroup have released their finest work to date, as this LP is absolutely sensational. Simultaneously epic, destructive, and forward-thinking, these 8 tracks span more than most bands in any of the aforementioned genres. Definitely in line for one of the best of 2023.

Tapes /36, 20 on grey swirl, 10 on broken gold swirl, 3 on grey, and 3 test dips, all w/jcard. 8 songs.

Listen here:

Our Future Is An Absolute Shadow got a shoutout in the January’s Last of the Month by Borderline Fuckup. We’ve moved through a fair amount of these babies and once they sell out we won’t be repressing anytime soon…cuz it’s just an internet project. T.J. McSnaggerson the III (jr.)!!!
