intoxicantations (2012/A389)
HARDCORE/METAL/CRUST. Their most crushing execution yet, "intoxicantations" is a 10-track crust- and doom infused journey through vice and sin.

Every second was used beautifully to create a monster of a record. Comes with a poster insert. Must-have for fans of AMEBIX, BOLT THROWER and BURNING WITH. Vinyl includes a digital download card.

IMAGES
five (2010/PHOBIACT)
HARDCORE-PUNK. A fierce, powerful, and hard-hitting album from these Hannover punk chargers. A monstrous blend of driving tuneage, blasted with socially and politically conscious lyrics, and a strong sense of rage, hope and rebellion. After their 7" this is yet again a mix of modern hardcore ala MODERN LIFE IS WAR and emotional stuff like AUTISTIC YOUTH and HOT WATER MUSIC - rough, pissed but still melodic and with a lot of hooks and singalongs! In the end IMAGES sounds like IMAGES. Featuring members of CAVE CANEM, NOVEMBER 13TH, KIDS OF THE BLACK HOLE etc..
