2022 - 10 - 06 /// Virgin Mother early release!
VIRGIN MOTHER ‘Mourning Ritual’ 12”LP (TT078)
For fans of: An Autumn For Crippled Children, New Order, and Meth.
Over two years ago we released a short run of demo tapes titled ‘It Is’, and after much more writing, polishing, and expanding of the VIRGIN MOTHER sound, we are set to drop the brand new debut 12”LP ‘Mourning Ritual’ on Friday October 17th. Drawing cues from industrial, new wave, black metal, noise, screamo, punk, post-punk, and more, this deep, dark look into Seb’s subconscious and it’s subsequent artistic representation is truly a work of art. From the hellish, eerie, almost gothic-sounding intro of “[promised end]“ it becomes obvious that this album is meant to be consumed in full, with spiking adrenaline surges (see “I’d Never Feel Like Anything” and “Fault”), soothing/groovy vibes (“Traffic Stop” and “Black Light On 16th Street“), uncomfortable noise (“Vanity’s Sake“ and “Parasite“) and the epic genre-mashes (“Blossoming Winter” and “Field of Warmth“). Released on Tomb Tree. Ships mid-October.
Vinyl /113 on 180gram Eco-Grime. Includes sticker. 11 songs.

Yo yo yo here’s the final Colacon in it’s green/purple glory! 30 of these exist in addition to the 10 red/yellow swirl, 6 test dips and 5 mystery swirls. These miniature bricks of dynamite are available purchase tomorrow Friday 7th @9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST.
A friendly reminder (especially for those from PERU!!!!!!!!!!) that Fiesta Bizarra has a new EP releasing on October 31st via Softseed Music but you can nab a tape now that will ship immediately! As of this Saturday if you’d like one and are in Peru you’ll have to pay single shipping instead of me sending a bulk order over. As of now there are zero Peru orders. Very sad. Peruvian pre-orders are open until Friday October 7th at 11:59pm but are available to the public now also who seem to be gobbling up all the rare variants.
Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: DINYA = I just found this new release last night and it’s super cool. Chip-tune infused screamo/hardcore from Czechia!
