OUT REALLY SOON—YACÖPSAE – Gästezimmer 8″ EP

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)
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.

EMILS – Demo ’87 EP now available for presale

EMILS – Demo ’87 EP 

Limited DIEHARD EDITION in violet vinyl!!
The mid-80s there were these rumors about a new band from Hamburg. Were behind the EMILS perhaps SLIME? If you read the band name from back to front, then these rumors get natural food. And the spelling of the band lettering was very inspired by SLIME. But in the end that was nonsense, of course. There were no overlaps. The mid-80s began the first german bands to orient themselves on Ami-Hardcore. SPERMBIRDS, Skeezicks, Jingo De Lunch, H.O.A, UNWANTED YOUTH, SOS. The EMILS crossed on their demo hardcore punk and also metal. D.R.I. had just invented the crossover. The EMILS quickly became popular. Also because they had German lyrics, which were also very critical and directly and did not mince his words. They were directed for example against the Church, Neo-Nazis, nuclear power (Chernobyl was just explodes), compliance and also against the stupidity in the own scene. Early 1987 they recorded the legendary 5 track demo at the “Dissenter Studios”. This is the first time you will get these tracks are on vinyl. The cover comes with the original Demo Cover Artwork,

DIE HARD EDITION is limited to 100 copies in violet vinyl with different fron cover
