Hey gang, me again! The slabs keep coming and I keep letting em loose, feel me? This time around the long-awaited US press of a Swedish mangel crusher. Read on if you dare!!!!
Here we have it, another chapter in the story of one of Sweden's greatest practitioners of modern raw hardcore punk - 偏執症者 (Paranoid)! The latest of the Northern Wind of Brutal Hell Mangel, this session was released earlier this year on the 7" format by Sweden's Not Enough Records but we are excited to give you all the 12" version of the absolutely obliterating S.C.U.M. EP! Recorded at the now legendary Studio Mangel in Frösön, Sweden with the mix and mastering being handled at LM Studio in Osaka, Japan by Ippei Suda and featuring additional vocals by Jacky and noise design by Statuszero recorded in Japan, this one sided slab packs 6 ear ringing blasts on the A-Side and features an absolutely stunning etched B-Side by Oik Wasfuk. Each record comes in a full color jacket adorned with a ghastly collage along with an obi strip, an insert and a stark poster measuring 18" x 24".
And for you, the mailorder fanatics, there is an exclusive deluxe version of this record. It comes on pink and black splattered vinyl, wrapped in a three color screen printed sleeve - a striking addition to an already all around stunning record. Limited to 100 copies for those that are into such things.
Also, if you happen to consider such a version too fancy, fret not - our friends at Sorry State will have an exclusive pink vinyl version that is also limited to 100 copies. Please note that it more than likely won't be up bright and early when I send this email, they might not be up til they open their store later in the day. Please don't punish those nice folks and just check back later.
Europe - as mentioned in the description, the great Not Enough Records in Sweden released these songs on 7" back in July. In the event shipping is a bit too daunting, my feelings won't be hurt if you just wanna cop that. Also, the band will have copies very soon, so stay tuned if that's a cheaper option.
All that said, you can order here and order / stream / download here.
On the distro front, I recently got copies of the two KINETIC ORBITAL STRIKE 7"s that seem to have sold out quickly from other outlets. Don't snooze, get em! Also got a couple more DELETAR 12"s floating around as well.
That'll do for now. You'll be hearing from me again in the coming weeks with some Italian hardcore punk and real deal Texas shit in tow. Til then, be well!
