So, it has been a fair while since our last newsletter so we thought it was about time for an update on releases, gigs, festivals, plans and the like… we will try and keep this brief 🙂

RELEASES OUT NOW:

ACCIDENTE – Amistad y Rebelión (DOWNLOAD)
Amazing female fronted anarcho pop punk from Spain! One of the best albums we’ve heard in a long time, free download and well worth a listen.

AUTONOMADS – One Day All Of This Will Be Gone… EVERYTHING NOW! (CD)
Highly anticipated second album from Manchester’s finest anarcho dub punks.

EPHEMERAL FOETUS / PISS ON AUTHORITY – Fallacy (Split CD)
6 track split from two great bands, just as good live and well worth supporting. Good bands and good people.

NU POGODI / CHOOSE YOUR POISON – Fuck My Womb, I’m Calling In Dead (Split 7″)
Enough blast beats and screams to turn your stomach, split release from Leeds to Chicago.

DISCO//OSLO – Disco//Oslo EP (7″)
Great melodic punk from Germany, great friends of Pumpkin Records and help us out in more ways than you could imagine. Their album is also out now on LP on Pumpkin.

RELEASES COMING SOON:

BSDC’s fourth release, this is a 12″ single with two vocal cuts and two dub cuts.

HELLO BASTARDS – S/T (12″)
Over 20 tracks of raging hardcore punk and crust in a gatefold vinyl sleeve.

OI POLLOI – Multiple Oi-Gasms (7″)
3 brand new tracks from a band who need to introduction, still smashing venues all over the world and still keeping it real 🙂

FAIR DO’S – Trying Times (CD)
Some of the tightest melodic hardcore around, mastered by Jason Livermore at the Blasting Rooms (NOFX, Propagandhi, Rise Against, Hot Water Music).
