The review from the
DISORDER/ AGATHATOCLES – Split LP
OUT next on POWER IT UP the longer than expected vinyl version from the GÄSTEZIMMER CD.
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)

27. Wawan (HOLIDAYXSUCKERS/ Indonesia)
28. Chris Dodge (INFEST/ USA)

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.
Germany’s fastcore band No. 1 SANITYS DAWN founded in the early 90s. Well known after several worldwide releases (several albums and split releases, with bands like EXHUMED, MAGRUDERGRIND, YACÖPSAE, NYCTOPHOBIC etc.) After 8 years of waiting they recorded six new songs of Braincrushing FastCore Madness for the current EP. Although one can say, even after more than 20 years in the business scene, Sanitys Dawn has not diminished of hardness and speed. The 7 “EP comes in a noble inside-outside printed cardboard sleeve. Very nice presentation.
The DIE HARD EDITION is limited to 100 white copies.
Napalm Death – Utilitarian 2x 10” + Bonus 7”
The 2012 album Utilitarian from the legendary UK Grinders now reissued on double 10” plus bonus 7” via Power It Up, comes in a heavy cardboard gatefold sleeve with slightly different artwork.
Here the different pressings:

300 copies black vinyl (Available)
