You better be quick tomorrow if you’re interested in one of these Holly Caught A Contact High releasing on Tomb Tree at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST. The band has 25 copies and we have 25 copies, only 10 of each variant (pictured on the right) and 5 of the halfsies (pictured on the top). Ridiculously awesome mathcore/grind from a member of Colacon! Further surprise going down tomorrow after the drop!!!

Keratin announced their first release, also on Tomb Tree, today with a debut single “Survive snake” from the 5-song EP ‘Only Eyes” that releases in mid-December. Gorgeous yet heavy, it’s like Swedish night combined with Australian heat…or Suis La Lune/Nionde Plagan mixed with Gil Cerrone. Whatever’s easiest to digest! Thanks for the premiere Miss The Stars.

Finishing off the Tomb Tree news is the Works 12”LP reminder that released on November 1st. Stellar stuff for those that like bassy grooves and disjointed/mathy guitars.

Next on the Best Of (((((OPENmind/SATURATEDbrain))))) Podcast we’ve got Josh Jakubowski from Neil Perry, The Now, Joshua Fit For Battle, Hot Cross, etc. talking about what the hell was going on during the “porch scene” of the Neil Perry tour video. Hint: Munch’ems.

CanaDave did another Out Past the Rings, number 131 to be exact, for Euclid C Finder’s double EP cassette release we did way back in 2018. Copies left? Hellllllz no.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: ROMAN CANDLE = Ridiculous new EP from this Nevada-based band. Kinda Nuvolascura but a bit less techy.
