8/25/15 - NEW 7"s from EEL, CONCEALED BLADE, and AJAX OUT NOW!!!


We meet again! B.I.R. is back with 3 new releases on the 7" format. There's not much else to say so I'm just gonna get down to it:

EEL - S/T EP

After a bit of down time since their last record, EEL has emerged from whatever local Pittsburgh landfill they came from with some more sonic blasts of the blown out noise infused hardcore punk pounders that they’ve made themselves known for with their past few releases. This particular slab features three original rippers followed by a DISORDER cover to close it all out. Each record comes in a full color glue pocket sleeve featuring some stunning cover art by Denis Boardman of the legendary UK band DOOM. Also included is a 14”x14” poster with a rather intricate black and white collage done by the band’s own 1984.

There are 150 copies on translucent red vinyl for mailorder only while they last.

CONCEALED BLADE - DEMO 7"

Braddock’s CONCEALED BLADE caught many off guard when their Earth shattering demo became available in early 2015 and now Beach Impediment is proud to bring it to the masses on the 7” format. Featuring members of BLOOD PRESSURE, HOUNDS OF HATE, and NO TIME, this recording is a relentless one full of the kind of riffs and vocals that bring late 80’s NYHC to mind while retaining a modern yet tasteful vibe all its own. For fans of hardcore and just simply “not for the fucking weak,” as they say.

There are 100 copies on clear vinyl for mailorder only while they last.
UPDATE 8/26/15: CLEAR VINYL IS SOLD OUT!

Available in Europe from HARDWARE RECORDS

AJAX - S/T EP

NYC’s finest follow up their demo and 7” on Katorga Works, along with their appearance on the HARDCORE: GIMME SOME MORE compilation, with what could very well be their best material to date! The four tracks on this new recording continue to exhibit the band’s perfected blend of USHC combined with the best of Sweden with harsh vocals barked over TOTALITAR influenced riffing. Saying that this release is essential would be an understatement. Each record comes in a full color glue pocket sleeve adorned with artwork by Shiva Addanki.

All copies are on black vinyl.

Available in Europe from STATIC SHOCK RECORDS
