Description:
Last year I purchased the remaining stock from a few distros and record stores that closed down. Now I have too many boxes of 7"s. I am offering this lot of 30 EPs at a reduced price with free Media Mail shipping in the US. The bands play various forms of crusty hardcore, grind, and raw metallic punk.

AFFRONT - Fallen Stars 7" (1999 Phyte Records) Hailing from Washington, D.C. Affront put together their second release. The music is hard and fast youth crew but with lots of melody and catchy elements. The songs are very melodic, but Affront never loses their fast aggressive attack. The energy level runs really high, and the singing is shouted with plenty of sing-a-long parts and even the occasional 7 SECONDS style oohh and ahhh chorus parts. You're guaranteed to hear a lot of influences from BATTERY and GOOD CLEAN FUN.

ALTARS / HALLA 7" (2010 King Of The Monsters) Pressing of 263. 'A long time friend dropped me a line out of the blue a few weeks back, asking me about the label. I explained to him my recent decision to restart the label after a few years hiatus and he in turn asked if I had heard of his latest project, ALTARS. My eyes immediately widened as the only thing I had been able to obtain by them prior was a one-sided 7" released on Down in The Ground Records entitled "Ewig Verloren". I had no idea that someone I knew was responsible for the cacophonous and violent musical outbursts committed to that release. He went on to explain that they just recorded for a split single with a band from Iran (!!!) called HALLA (Allah spelled backwards) and we immediately forged a plan to release this project onto the world.' - King Of The Monsters website 'Barbaric and piercing black metal / noise from two of the undergrounds best kept secrets. Altars hail from the U.S. and have previous releases on Youth Attack, Down In The Ground and Occult Contemporary. Halla is an anti-christian, anti-islam, anti-religion, anti-human, anti-EVERYTHING black metal project from Iran, a place that could easily get them killed for their views. This is about as lo-fi and raw as it gets.'

ANODYNE - Berkowitz 7" (2001 Alone Records AL-015) Noisy math hardcore from Boston.

BREAD AND WATER / REASON OF INSANITY - Split 7" (2000 Burrito Records 14) Reason of Insanity Play fast aggressive hardcore without losing that toe tapping quality. The vocals are brutal and harsh, and their artwork is classic cut and paste punk. Bread And Water have political lyrics and they play straight forward hardcore with a bit of melody. Their main vocalist is a woman, and her voice is supplemented by the occasional burst of distorted growling.

CHRONICLE A/D - Enough Rats In The Walls...And The Empires Fall 7" (2004 Hyperrealist HR008) This three piece features members and ex-members of Antischism, Initial State and Karst playing a powerful mix of dark, brooding hardcore and classic peace punk with dual vocals and definite political overtones.

EXALTED - Eyes Rolled Back 7" (2009 Deer Healer DHR-008) A gushing, dripping army of disease lurches a few final steps before sprinting towards a village doomed to filth, sickness, and the merciless attention of its attackers. Hapless citizens cast aside their pitchforks and submit to the inevitable— their eyes roll back and bulge in virulent defeat. The Grim Throng has come, has slashed, has hammered, has fed. On this fierce, hissing release from Deer Healer, Exalted scrapes the Earth pure with this ravenous assault on humankind. Black metal from Chicago.

HUBRIS - Base Desire 7" (2011 Cricket Cemetery numbereight) (Members of State Violence, ex Death Rats) Laying down a litany of anger against an unjust world, Hubris comes thrashing up from the lost landscapes of Washington, DC to herald a terrifying battle cry for the pound of flesh owed to the dispossesed. Blown out and brutal beyond description, this solemn mob hurls the razorwire along the spine of such other unappologetically angry crust merchants as His Hero is Gone, Tragedy, and From Ashes Rise. Pressing of 300.

HUMAN MESS - Uncaged Animal 7" (2008 No Way Records NW-24) Hailing from Bakersfield these punks blast out 5 tracks on their debut 7" entitled, "uncaged animal". That's exactly what this record is, lashing out with raw, pure, violent mayhem! To get close to what this sounds like, you could take early POISON IDEA and mix it with THE GERMS and you wont be too far away. This band also shares members with CONTAMINATORS and LOSER LIFE so you know they know what they're doing here.

HYBRIS 7" (1999 Scorched Earth Policy SEP04 / Tomte Tumme Tott ttt7) We are very glad to release this record by this totally awesome, mindblasting band. Their demo blew us away and this is even much better. Imagine a totally intense, insane full on mayhem metallic hardcore record in the veins of Uranus and you have probably an idea what this is like. In fact they sound a lot like Uranus. Listen, this is fucking Armageddon!!!

INFANTICIDE - Sonic Punishment 7" (2008 625 #216) Some of the most ferocious Scandanavian grindcore you have ever heard. Seriously unrelenting blastcore that puts to shame the current tech-grind trends. 10 songs of total obliteration that recalls the classics of grind - includes a brutal UNSEEN TERROR cover.

KINJITE 7" (2001 Pop/Counter/Project) German hardcore.

LTW / BEASTS OF NO NATION 7" (2012 Cricket Cemetary CC#014) One label from the chocolate city, Washington, D.C., called Cricket Cemetry has done it again. They are about to release a killer split with LTW // Beasts of No Nation on May 21st. The LTW song is actually two songs in one, entitled “Lake Drug/Joy of Lying and Cheating,” and clocks in at around four minutes of pure blazing hot distorted awesome fury. The band are in the pocket from the get go – the screeching sound of feedback gets their part started. Then LTW began to bruise you all over with their punishing onslaught of speed and chaos. What really makes these songs work is how the band allow them to breathe in so much oxygen of originality, hence all of the wicked tempo changes! Hot damn, next up is the Beasts of No Nation song “Impunity,” which yanks your body and says, listen to this now motherfucker!!! There is nothing weak about this tune, and it reeks of demented melody that will stick in your thought pattern. The singer of Beasts of No Nation delivers the goods and the lyrics are on point. While listening to this record, I realized there must be something in the history of this town that gives so many of their bands that special unknown factor that makes their music so killer.

MUTILATED VETERANS / VASTATION 7" (2015 Morbid Reality Records MRR 020) Mutilated Veterans is the side project band formed by Dopi from Machetazo (rip) and Ramon from Looking For An Answer. Both bands playing raw Brutal Death Crust Punk!

NIGHTBRINGER - Fight Like Hell 7" (2012 self-released) Michigan hardcore. Drawing influence from the slashing riffs of "give notice of nightmare", crashing open chords in the chorus and a splash of bit crushed distortion for emphasis, "fight like hell" is an all out burner dedicated to living at maximum intensity until your last breath, putting fear in the hearts of those who would oppress the human spirit.

NO SYSTEM - Dead Bands Tell No Tales 7" (2009 No Way Records NW-33) No System were a Boston, MA hardcore band from the mid-'80s and featured Al Quint of Suburban Voice fanzine fame on vocals and members of PTL Klub on the instruments. They used a style similar to the earlier Boston bands like DYS, Deep Wound and FUs, and on this recording, did a cover of the classic Discharge song "Doomsday."

OTOPHOBIA - Source Of Confusion 7" (1999 Burrito Records #11) Originally from Atlanta, Georgia Otophobia eventually moved their mix of grindcore and crust to Philadelphia, PA. Some of the memebers eventually went on to form Endless Nightmare.

REDFLESH - Raw War 7" (2012 Video Disease Records VD-13 Debut 7" from these Copenhagen monsters and it is a ripper! The best way I could describe this is to imagine Von covering GISM and recording a demo in a cardboard box. That may not be the right thing for everyone, but I LOVE this kind of stuff. These 3 neanderthals crash and bash their way through 4 songs filled with metallic riffs, sloppy guitar solos, tribal drumming, and the grunts and howls of a man possessed. This is the soundtrack to a war that no one asked to be a part of.

RUNE 7" (2000 Clean Plate Records CP 33) Technical grind band from Ohio.

TELLUSIAN - Scania 7" (2013 Pillowscars PIS005) After the expiration of technical hardcore band Crowpath, Tellusian now rise to prominence in the Malmö, Sweden metal scene. Though some applauded Crowpath's efforts to integrate their Dillinger Escape Plan-esque sound into Sweden's predominant melodic death metal, Tellusian should find their path less traveled, thanks to their Botch influences. Crowpath mates Erik Hall (drums) and Henrik Ivarsson (vocals) joined forces with guitarist/producer John Nilsson and bassist Robert Fuchs to record Scania, their two-song debut seven-inch. "Eight Years of Rest" sports the varied tempos and chord changes that made Botch's We Are the Romans an absolute classic, with dashes of the Fucking Champs' epicness. "Carnevále" is more brooding in sections, again with colourful progressions and an under-layer of Kiss It Goodbye's restive chaos.

THETAN - Welcome To Whine Country 7" (2012 Anti-Corp ACM026) The remaining members of SANCTIONS hold it down in this new 2 piece power-violence explosion. Ripping out 10 tracks of bass/drum mayhem in just under 12min.. Proving that raw savagery needs no frills!

THETAN / BIBLE THUMPER 7" (2013 Burnt Bridges Records) Nashville Tennessee's THETAN destroys your speakers with 4 tracks of spastic, frantic, borderline psychotic hardcore. Short rapidfire bursts of mayhem only subside long enough to make way for noisy fucked interims. Flip the record and New Brunswick's BIBLE THUMPER raze all in their path with feedback laden blasts of fire and brimstone. Pausing only momentarily before returning to their bludgeoning style of caustic hardcore. No guitarists were harmed in the making of this record!

WILLING FEET 7" (2011 Mercy Of Slumber MOS 003 / Peace And Quiet Recordings PQR-009) Raw brutal minimalist evil punk. In the vein of ILDJARN with a static hiss of noise. Totally aggressive and mean. Limited to 300 copies, split release with Peace and Quiet Recordings.

WORLD BURNS TO DEATH - Human Meat 7" (2002 Prank Records 052) Blasting thrash ferocity torn out of Austin, Texas, World Burns To Death Debut 7" EP featured members of Severed Head Of State and Scorched Earth Policy. Ram-charging a raw Japanese punk influenced sound, an intense punk declaration against the insanity of war, this is one of the band's rawest releases. Repress on clear wax.
