NEW MAILORDER ARRIVAL!!!

IMPLORE-Depopulation-LP

„Depopulation“ is the first album of this very young band, that in its less than 2 years of existence has already toured Europe several time, as well as the US and even Mexico. „I have never seen such a dedicated and passionate audience like in Monterey“, Dubko recalls, „we were treated like metal gods“. The band recorded with Earthship’s Jan Oberg at his Hidden Planet studios in Berlin, and Christian Bass from Heaven Shall Burn behind the drumkit once more. The album’s 16 tracks clock in at just under 30 minutes: „Depopulation“ has everything you want a solid grindcore album to have: gnarly riffs, super fast blast beat attacks, harsh, feisty vocals and that particular Swedish guitar tone we all love so much.

NEW TAPE ARRIVALS!!!

EXTORTION-Obsess-Tape

New collection Tape of totally 70 tracks of 7″s, 5″es, split 7″es, split Lp with Cold World, Demo tracks and some unreleased tunes. Extortion set out to make ears bleed pure powerviolence that worships at the altar of bands like Crossed Out, Neanderthal and Infest. Their songs whip up into a frenzy of blast beats and growls and slow down into agonizing sludge bits.

SKELETAL REMAINS-Condemned To Misery-Tape

“Everything together has grown on this new release we feel it’s a big step up from Beyond The Flesh. The difference between Beyond The Flesh and Condemned To Misery is the mild technicality of it all. You can really hear the progression of the guitars from the riffs down to the solos. The drums play a big part in the technical aspect of Condemned To Misery. For the guitars we didn’t really shoot for technical, it all just sort of came out that way for some of the songs. The drums is what we really wanted to stand out and thanks to our friend Carlos Cruz, he made it happen. The listeners should expect progression, growth and aggression but over all still the old school vibe we tried to Deliver on Beyond The Flesh!”

SKELETAL REMAINS-Beyond The Flesh-Tape

After a phenomenal demo tape, SKELETAL REMAINS from California (USA) release their first full length album. “BEYOND THE FLESH” is classic Death Metal from the rotten crypt and awakes the spirit of late 80s/ early 90s Morrisound stuff. If you like the early hymns of Gorguts, Pestilence, Death or Morgoth surely you’ll freak out with Skeletal Remains !

Almost 25 years of YACØPSÆ … Time for a tribute? Not at all! The band still like the AMEBIX slogan: “No gods, no masters”! Nevertheless, YACØPSÆ was always well-known for brewing out some freaky ideas (just check their huge output and you’ll know what we mean), so the concept of a “Guest room” EP was born, whilst we were hanging around somewhere and joking about how to celebrate the “next” anniversary! Actually, no big deal … Eventually, the band invited a bunch of different people from around the globe to “sing” for them. 15 tracks, each one lasting about 30 seconds, and placed twice (subdivided in two sides: male/ female). All participants had to create own lyrics and to record the vocals by their own. In addition, each person needed to write down a few neutral sentences about the very first encounter with YACØPSÆ, and sending a photo. Basically, the whole idea is not that new or original, though the list of our guests is impressive, so here we go:

01. Julia (BÄD INFLUENCE/ Germany)

02. Katja (VÖLKERMORD/ Germany)

03. Alexandra (CROWSKIN/ Germany)

04. Mareike (UNHOLY HANDJOB/ Germany)

05. Jess (4-LOM/ Canada)

06. Diana (URSUS/ Colombia)

07. Martina (AUNTY PANTY/ Canada)

08. Ami (VÖETSEK/ USA)

09. Athena + Jeff (VÖETSEK + CAPITALIST CASUALTIES/ USA)

10. Melanie (THRASHING PUMPGUNS/ Germany)

11. Sanja (DEPARTURE/ Germany)

12. Leonie (SVFFER/ Germany)

13. Carmen (Not in a band/ Germany)

14. Sabina (HOLY MOSES/ Germany)

15. Peppels (STAHLSCHWESTER/ Germany)

16. Mirko (MONDIAL/ Germany)

17. Dany (DEAD/ Germany)

18. Flupp (CHAOSFRONT/ Germany)

19. Klaus (RAZORS/ Germany)

20. Karl Nagel (KEIN HASS DA/ Germany)

21. Fabian (PELVIC THRUST/ Germany)

22. IRATE ARCHITECT (Complete/ Germany)

23. Kerem + Alper (RADICAL NOISE + LIFELOCK/ Turkey)

24. Damon McCoy (ZABØGART/ Indonesia)

25. Bert und Jens (BIZARRE X/ Germany)

26. Giulio (CRIPPLE BASTARDS/ Italy)

27. Wawan (HOLIDAYXSUCKERS/ Indonesia)

28. Chris Dodge (INFEST/ USA)

29. CORROSIVE (Complete/ Germany)

30. Martin (EA80/ Germany)

Additionally, a bunch of 45 kids in the age between 3 and 5 years is singing “Brother Jakob” in five different speeches (German, English, French, Turkish, and Spanish). Think about where we got our name from, eh? Stoffel went to a friend’s kindergarten to organize the huge choir of cute and awesome kids, and to record the tracks, exclusively. The stuff will be used as intro, midtro and outro.

ISKRA-Ruins-LP

“Ruins” is ISKRA’s third studio album and by far their best one yet. Recorded February 2014, Ruins was engineered and produced in true DIY fashion by ISKRA’s own drummer Cody Baresich. The album was then mastered for vinyl at Sweden’s CUTTING ROOM by Martin Ankelius. “Ruins” contains 10 punishing songs with lyrics ranging from anarchist theory, military drone strikes on civilian populations, historic native american battles against european colonialism, and a yearning to be free from draconian laws. Combined with over the top riffs, devastating blast beats, pulverizing toms, and the occasional dive bomb this LP will leave your speakers smoldering. Not only is this one of the most intense records PROFANE EXISTENCE has ever done, it is also one of the most beautiful presentations we have seen in recent years. The stark mountainous cover resembles Middle Earth artwork but the real gem is the 11in x 11in 12 page booklet inside. Printed on glossy paper, this booklet contains not just lyrics but very thorough explanations of each song.

SAWN OFF-Same-LP

Last copies! 26 tracks, features some unreleased tracks from 1998 as well as all of their previously released material. It is an onslaught of aggressive hardcore thrash. The lyrics are angry political ditties about 21st Century life, and the delivery is brutal, ugly and uncompromising. They play some fast power thrash, some slower more brutal material, and some simply ugly sounding noise. Combine all of this together and you get some awesome hardcore. Vicious and mean.

CRUTCHES-Förlorad-LP

We get a whirlwind of madness and a new record filled with anger furiousity that’ll make you shiver. 10 new tracks of political d-beat raw MANGEL punk.” – word!

20150911_121615

BEYOND DESCRIPTION-A Road To Brilliant Future-LP

Full-throttle speedy thrash from Japan – fuck, this record rules. This is archetypal thrash, quintessential crossover, a perfectly balanced mix of metal and punk. It’s still mostly thrash in a punk sorta way, but the cut-off jean jacket vests and BC Rich guitars make it clear they’ve been listening to their Nuclear Assault records too. Metal riffs, punk riffs, double kick, high energy, 1-note two-second guitar solos and lyrics in Japanese – what more could you want? Fans of DRI, Municipal Waste, Strong Intention, etc will definitely dig this.

GRUMO/ IMPLORE/ AGE OF WOE-LIVE SHOW IN WEIMAR!!!

Gestern (14.09.2015), spielten “Grumo” (Death Grind aus Italien), “Implore” und “Age of Woe” in der Gerberstrasse 3 in Weimar. Wir von Power it Up waren mal wieder mit von der Partie. Nachdem wir am späten Nachmittag die Kulturstadt erreichten, ging es nach einem kurzen Gang durch die weimarer Innenstadt, ab zu dem Haus welches seit dem 17.März 1990 von linken Aktivisten besetzt wird.  Ab 20 Uhr füllte sich so langsam der Schuppen und eine gute Stunde später legten Grumo mit ihrem Set los. Die vier Jungs aus Modena (Norditalien) spielen Death Grind und heizten der Menge ordentlich ein. Nach einer kuzen Pause ging es dann weiter mit Implore. Hamma!!! Neben einigen neuen Songs von der Scheibe “Depopulation” , wurden aber auch ältere Stücke von der “Black Knell EP” gespielt. Ich war mal wieder mehr als begeistert von dem Brett was die 3 Typen an dem Abend lieferten. Es folgten Age of Woe… Neben einer gerissenen Bass-Saite lief der Auftritt aber auch astrein.  Nun leerte sich das Haus allmählich und wir ließen den Abend mit ein Paar Gläsern Whisky ausklingen.
