APOSTLES OF ERIS + PIQUE - Split (cassette)

CA$20.00

APOSTLES OF ERIS + PIQUE ‘Split‘ 12" (ZB221)

For fans of: Capsule, Cease Upon The Capitol, Terry Green and Iwrotehaikusaboutcannibalisminyouryearbook

Birthed from the very sexual People’s Temple Project/Mrtex tour of 2014, this split has been years in the making and we are very proud to be revealing it to world. APOSTLES OF ERIS’ side is the band’s most cohesive material to date, reworked and refined, following a linear theme. Jesse (instruments/vox) has played in a vast array of screamo bands including but not limited to Altar Of Complaints, Majorel, In Wolves Clothing while Dave (vox/lyrics) has spent time in Mrtex, Swallows Nest and The World That Summer. Their seven tracks fall somewhere between Capsule and Cease Upon The Capitol. PIQUE has also been working on these songs for years, as can be seen by the plethora of demos leading up to this. Their seven jams are both their darkest and most technical/playful, with Iwrotehaikusaboutcannibalisminyouryearbook being the most obvious comparison.

Tape/12. 7 songs by each band.

2021 - 12 - 12 /// Le Blast + Dave's Doubles

December 12, 2021 by David Norman

Hey y’all! In anticipation of tomorrow’s big release I thought I’d do a Canada special today, as the Le Blast Records haul showed up early last week and I’ve been busy putting them up in the NEW ITEMS/SPECIALS section of the store. I think the entire Au bout de mes lèvres discography is up there, as well as Икар, False Flag, Neck Deep In Filth, Apostles Of Eris, Pique, Cienfuegos, Kepler, etc
***AMERICANS please note, there are even more of these tapes arriving in the US store later this month, likely to be posted mid-January after our two-week break.

CanaDave went through some of his older ZBR cassettes and found some additional copies of two very sold out releases. Not only are these extra copies, but I held them back because I couldn’t choose which were my favourites, so they aren’t pretty nice…they’re really fucking beautiful. Dave’s Doubles now up, just Youth Novel, Armywives, For Your Health, and an /15 A Paramount A Love Supreme! If you’ve made it this far, I should let you in on a little secret…there’s a Drei swirl back up in the New Items/Specials page because I miscounted during Swirl Set #2. So like…grab that now before they’re gone forever.

A final early reminder that New Grass 12”s drop tomorrow on Zegema Beach and The Ghost Is Clear. We have two tracks up now that you can jam to your heart’s content.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: Икар = We recently got some copies of these tapes from Le Blast and we were blown away. Absolutely unreal emo-violence from Belarus.
