25 april 2008

- the test presses arrived today, they are approved from my side. the covers for the DESPISE YOU LP are currently being printed, while the covers for the DAZD/ ORDER OF THE VULTURE split 7" are going to the printers next week. i expect to have everything ready to go in about a month. both are to be pressed in 500 copies, with clear vinyl available through mailorder.
- few other projects are taking shape, and a couple of new releases are to be announced soon.

11 march 2008

- me and steven/ CRUCIFICADOS PELO SISTEMA have started booking the tour for AGENTS OF ABHORRENCE and POTOP.
hailing from australia, AoA play brain-piercing grindcore with surgical precision. dissonant and organic guitar layered over dynamic drum blasting and an intense vocal make a complete venomous package. so far they have released a 9" and a split 7" with IRON LUNG on MISSING LINK, "character dissection" 12" on CRUCIFICADOS PELO SISTEMA, and a new cd on 625 records. this year they have toured the states with IRON LUNG and just returned from their australian tour with INSECT WARFARE, with whom they are doing a split 7" pretty soon.
POTOP (macedonia) are the polar opposite of AoA, speed-wise. negative guitars, tectonic grooves and sadistic vocals. bad music for bad people. a split 12" with the mighty BURMESE is soon to be co-released between FUCK YOGA and CRUCIFICADOS PELO SISTEMA.
here are the tour dates, if you can help us out with a show drop me or steven a line, and do yourself a favor, check out steven's label for some fine records.

14 january 2008

- the first batch of records is sold out, i got more e-mails then i have records, and will get back to you in the next day or so to confirm your order.

14 january 2008

- i received 40 copies of the IRON LUNG/ THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE 12" and 25 copies of THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE 7". more are ariving by the end of the month. IRON LUNG play extreme hardcore punk with such lyrics that i have no idea how many managed to get into them. they have toured relentesly to most corners of the world (hell, they played a garage show in macedonia) and to me represent the finest dynamic duo. THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE hail from canada, and take a similar approach on the music aka brutal and bi-polar hardcore with all the right attributes + thought-provoking lyrics, and killer artwork. the 7" is recorded as a trio with only andy doing vocals and the japanese rising avant-drum legend riyosuke kiyasu (SETE STAR SEPT, KEIJI HEINO), and represents the BLOCKADE in their rawest edition.

pressing info:

IRON LUNG/ THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE - "broadcast negativity" split 12"
- 300 black ink on white paper
- 38 silver ink on transparent plastic
- 6 silver ink on white paper

THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE 7"
-430 regular covers + obi strip + poster
-80 covers in hand-made stenciled bags
-4 test presses
- black vinyl only

check out BLOCKADE's "mothra"

the 12" is 10 euros, and the 7" is 4e for the regular, and 5e for the limited. both records are one-time pressings only. when ordering the 12", state which cover you'd like to get otherwise you'll get a random one. i like the black ink one the best.
there are also some DESPISE YOU and THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE shirts left, and since some people asked about combining shipping, here's the postage for airmail to anywhere in the world:

mailer = 300 gr. (no mailer for shirts only)
7" = 100 gr.
12" = 250 gr.
t-shirt = 160-170 gr.

and the prices for postage are:
250 - 500 gr = 5e
500 - 1000 gr = 6.5e
1000 - 2000 gr = 8.5e

add 3% of the total + 30 cents for paypal to kedaegaolo at gmail dot com. well-hidden cash at your own risk.

DON"T FORGET TO ASK FOR AVAILABILITY BEFORE SENDING THE MONEY!

i am also sending out free POTOP promos if asked. in case you are too lazy to check out the link, it's slow//heavy//ugly shit. we are currently finishing up the mixing, and a couple of releases are being talked about. support the underground, etc.

other label- related news:

- i'll be putting out the european version of DESPISE YOU - "west side horizons" LP. to me they are one of the first bands that come to mind when talking about negative, pissed off hardcore and i am extremly stoked on working with them on this one. i'm shooting for a march release date, more info to come.
- planning on sending the DAZD/ ORDER OF THE VULTURE split 7" at the same time. OotV sent me the new song, this record will be a true feast for the necro punks. DAZD have also recorded their new album, it sounds incredible. the songs are drifting between old stoner metal/rock and thrashy crust with an occult approach. feel the darkness.
- BILL SKINS FIFTH have finished their new material, and are looking for labels. check out 2 new songs here.
- ELODEA have regruted the bass player from the cult slovenians PIZDA MATERNA and are doing an italian tour in march. new songs have also been written, so keep an eye on them if you like your music dark and sludgy. the "cataclysmic" cd is still available through me for 5e.

- i figured out how to set up a mailing list, so feel free to subscribe.

05 december 2007

- the IRON LUNG/ THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE 12" and THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE 7" are done. they are stocked in germany, at my friend lars/ REACT WITH PROTEST, who helped me out a ton with this one. they are not ready for orders though, since i have the covers at my place. we'll figure out how to put them together these days. i am computer-dumb, so if you can help me out with setting up a mailing list, you will receive e-mail notifications when they're done, meaning a chance to order limited version.

14 november 2007

- the shirts are here and ready to be shipped. available in S, M, L, XL (i think i did a few XXL too), but ask for availability before ordering to make sure i still have it.

01 november 2007

- i'll be doing 50 each of the following designs for DESPISE YOU and THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE:

kid sniffing glue + gun, black ink on white shirt

shoko asahara, silver ink on black shirt

if you want really small/ big shirts- let me know, and i might get you one if you get in touch before i send them off to the printing place. they will be done next week, so don't order yet.
one shirt including shipping to anywhere in the world + paypal fees would be 12.5 euros / 18$. order with friends and save some cash on shipping- 2 shirts ppd are 22 euros/ 32$.
check the distro, i offer 10 cds for 55 euros including shipping,. free stuff with decent sized orders, etc. the more you buy- the less you pay, oh my!

01 october 2007

-the site is somewhat functional, still under construction though.
-masters for the IRON LUNG/ THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE - "broadcast negativity" 12" and THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE 7" have been mailed to the pressing plant, meaning it should be out soon, since the covers are already printed. crushing, raw, and negative hardcore all the way. the split 12" will be one time pressing of 330 copies, with silk screened + stenciled covers, while the 7" is limited to 500 copies. both releases will have "special" packaging, available only through me and the bands. trades will be very few to none, because of high production costs, and because distro is moving crazy slow due to me living in macedonia. if you want to buy anything, i'm willing to cut down sweet deals.
-DAZD/ ORDER OF THE VULTURE split 7" has been postponed until OotV record some new songs. ugly punk metal along the lines of HELLHAMMER, AMEBIX, GISM, DEVIATED INSTINCT...
-the MOSS 7" is titled "sewer monolith" and will be pressed in quantity of 1000 on heavy, black vinyl.
-i am still looking for people who are willing to write for a zine that will accompany a compilation 12" with lots of ugly hardcore bands. i want to make it a group effort, so get in touch!

12 august 2007

- changing servers, working on a new website.
- the planned MOSS/ DISCLOSE 7" is apperantly going to be a full MOSS 7", dedicated to kawakami-san. the B side of the record is going to be recorded this winter during their session for the new album. the EP is supposed to be out early next year.
- it looks like i'll be finaly sending the IRON LUNG/ THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE 12", THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE 7" and DAZD/ ORDER OF THE VULTURE 7" to the pressing plant. i'm sorry about the delay, but i had some trouble with communication through the pressing plant, and the summer slowed me down a lot.
