Work on Pine Barrens' debut LP "Kingmaker" is well underway. Here's a sneak peak at the cover by Steve Larder:
Sound samples coming soon, but in the meantime, please refamiliarise yourself with their demo.
Also coming up is the 15-track debut by Beg, which is somewhat of a grind supergroup.
Beg is Smith from Afternoon Gentlemen on drums, Geith from Art Of Burning Water on guitar and Ed from At A Crawl yelling. Sounds totally blistering.
Hygiene Records out of North Carolina are doing a run of 100 CDRs, and then hopefully we'll follow up with a run on vinyl.
Good Throb have a new 7" out on Muscle Horse. You should totally buy that because they are great.

Art Of Burning Water LPs out now!
"This Disgrace" is totally ready to roll. "Love You Dead" should have the proper sleeves done by the weekend.
You could therefore say that the fourth album is out before the third, but please don't.
Saturday 12th January at The Urban Bar in London will be the "official" launch gig for these. Got Brighton the following Thursday. Come on down!
------------------------------------------------------------------
31/12/12
Well, 2012 was agreeably strange, here's hoping 2013 will be just as interesting!
This year we squeezed out a bunch of seven inches which was a bit easier on the wallet and didn't take up too much room.
Was an absolute honour to "work" with Grace, Good Throb, Hark, Hot Graves, Tide Of Iron and Whitehorse.
Here's what's 2013 has in store for us (probably):
Art Of Burning Water - Love You Dead LP
Art Of Burning Water - This Disgrace LP
Not one but two albums will be unleashed on vinyl. These are the band's third and fourth albums.
SuperFi and Swarm Of Nails are co-releasing these, with Riot Season also helping out with "This Disgrace".
The winter tour was great fun, we got treated like kings and I think we played well.
Hark - Mythopoeia CDR
It looks like the 7" is sold out from the band and the labels, so we'll be making a CDR version for their upcoming gigs.
There will a couple of live tracks from a recent French radio session in addition to the two existing tracks.
Executive Distraction Tasks - Finished With Grind CDR
A super limited DIY release became even more limited when my share got lost in the mail.
I'll be getting the materials together soon to make a short second run available.
You can get a digital version over at Grindcore Karaoke here.
Pine Barrens / Wode - split 7"
Pine Barrens - Kingmaker LP
Pine Barrens and Wode are from the Manchester area and make black-metal influenced hardcore punk that I cannot get enough of.
PB's album will also see the light of day. A big bunch of great UK labels are making that happen.
Artwork is in progress for both of these, and the songs need a bit more mastering work as far as I know.
Beg - s/t CS
This is some vicious and smart grindcore that bridges the old and new skools.
Somewhat of a supergroup, with Geith from AoBW, Smith from Afternoon Gents and Ed from At A Crawl / T.I.T.T..
This should make it to vinyl at some point too.
Lupins 12"
These guys are a totally killer power-trio from London in the classic noise-rock vein, with an emphasis on the rock there.
We were going to do a 7" with them but the songs have turned out quite long so we'll see how that goes.
Skylark / Meadows - split 7"
The UK scene is great right now, epitomised by these two youngish bands teaming up for this split.
SL make noisy, abrasive post-hardcore in a Shotmaker style while Meadows bow down to the altars of sludge and powerviolence, sometimes at the same time.
Pretty sure this is still on the cards but I don't think the songs have been written or recorded so it's a way off.
New distro additions:
Abolition / Hang The Bastard - Split 7"
American Heritage - Sedentary LP
Endless Grinning Skulls - Fear Ignorance Control 7"
Grinding Halt / Daighila - Split 7"
Sete Star Sept - Vinyl Collection 2010-2012 CD
and we have a bunch of shirts (Despise You, Moss, Noothgrush) too.
I think that'll do for now. Thanks for your continued support!

Good Throb 7" is very basically nearly totally done! Just got to stamp and fold stuff, but order away!
Check out the sleeves, with sicko art by singer Ellie and meaningful collage by bassist Ash.
Art Of Burning Water went to Ireland last week and it was tiring but wonderful. Thank you Ireland.
Listen to Wolfbait, we played with them twice and they were amazing. Tape on Art For Blind imminently.
See the gigs page for the rest of the tour dates around England and Wales.
Tour version of "Love You Dead" will be available, and "This Disgrace" may well be too.
We have a gap in our tour on December 7th. Might be filled pretty soon, but if anyone can help, let me know.
Sadly City Dweller have called it a day, so the 7" we were helping out with isn't happening.
Listen to what could have been: I Will Become Unique
The Good Wife, the sporadically active but always sleazily brilliant Southampton band also seem to have kicked the bucket.
Not sure what will happen to their LP recording but hopefully something from it sees the light of day.

There are some issues with the covers for "Love You Dead" but we'll have a tour version ready for these gigs.
"This Disgrace" won't be ready in time. Hopefully it will be for the England leg.
We have a gap in our tour on December 7th. Might be filled pretty soon, but if anyone can help, let me know.

Hark 7" out now!
Ex. Taint frontman Jimbob Isaac returns with his new unit Hark. Their debut seven inch 'Mythopoeia' is released on July 30th, through the Destructure/SuperFi labels.
The Welsh progressive-power-sludge trio carry Taint's torch forward, passed on from their legacy that began in 1994.
With fresh chops and almighty riff power, Hark continue to fuse punk attack with Sabbathian dirge, and decorate post-whatever angularities with classic rock flourish.
While Isaac's vocals expand on his tried and tested palette, his lyrics continue to shatter prose with bleak metaphor and acerbic spittle.
Former Whyteleaf rhythm section Nikolai Ribnikov and Simon Bonwick, the Hark engine, bring an OCD approach to song craft, and endlessly creative pummel.
Their dynamic chops, and blood lust for riffs meld with Isaac's honed and equally determined musical vision.
'Mythopoeia' is strictly limited to 300 copies. Each sleeve is lovingly hand screened, and numbered by Jimbob, who is also the creator of the suitably crushing artwork.
With plans for recording their debut full length at the end of the year, Hark will be making every effort in 2013 to make a mark as slab-like as their logo.
Listen to the two tracks here and see more info at the release page. I will have inserts by the weekend and will be sending out orders then.
