If you love Hayworth and didn’t get all those ‘License To Bill’ hints then shame on you. If you still don’t know what I’m talking about, Hayworth’s first demo was kinda lost to the sands of time. No masters. Only 25 cdrs made. Not on bandcamp or streaming services. So after badgering the band for a few years they finally agreed to releasing these fantastic early songs on cassette. We had Joni from Curry Lands clean up and remaster the mp3s and Kyle from Heathen Hand do the updated art and then made 250 cassettes across some of our nicest tapes ever. More news coming early next week including variants.

The tapes release simultaneously with Loftus on Friday May 13th, 2022 at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST.

Piet Onthel released yesterday and it was already picked up by Stereogum so check the review by clicking on this text or jam those five fiery jam below.

Azzacov releases tomorrow via Tomb Tree, Middle Man, and Coxinha Records early in the morning, so be prepared to have a violent and emotional Sunday morning.

If you missed the Orphaned ‘Hate Has Consequences’ take a listen because the tapes arrived yesterday and I’m already done all the dipping so they’ll start shipping out next week. We also got 5 overs so I will made an overs variant /5 that will go up next week when they are ready to ship. Devastating shit, good god.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: GLARUS = Ex-Big Machine, this post-rock/hardcore/metal is pretty fuckin’ big, too. And dark. And awesome. FFO: Isis, Across Tundras, Punchline Hunting Season, Fall Of Efrafa, etc.

Apostles Of Eris and Gossip’s split 12” ‘Drone and Cull’ was released a few days ago and we’re already about 75% sold out. There are only 111 so we don’t expect them to sit around too long. Check it out below.

We got the email today! Loftus is done!!! We’ll have it in hand early/mid-May and shipping late May (inserts/shipping to Canada/etc.) with an official release/order going down at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST on May 13th. We’ll have another very special surprise that day that we have yet to reveal, so you should probably budget for an additional cassette ;) Until then, if you have a golden ticket (these came in the 10 golden discography tapes, loooooong sold out) please email or message us before the end of the day on May 10th to lock in your purchase of the ‘Hugs and Drugs’ 12” mage.

The Mathcore Index podcast aka Matchcast gave some props to our Australian besties Blind Girls. Check it out and nab a 12” before I run out of these oranges!

No Echo premiered the first single off of ‘Hate Has Consequences’, the new cassette from Cleveland’s Orphaned. It’s a jackhammer to the brain. Tape pre-orders open May 1st!!! I can’t embed that sucka so click on this text to go to No Echo.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: COVEN = Awesome French screamo! 12”s in our distro/new items/specials page!
