They're here, they're finally here! Shit, man.<br /><br /><u><strong>PUBLIC ACID - DEADLY STRUGGLE 12"</strong></u><br /><br />Amidst a seemingly endless onslaught of bands, labels, and other opportunistic clowns vying for commercial gain via subcultural cannibalism, it can be easy to lose sight of what drew us to punk in the first place. But despite the deluge of bullshit, we know that occasional nuggets of ugly and raw authenticity will claw their way to the surface for the hardcore punk faithful. And folks, we have just such a nugget in Deadly Struggle: 8 tracks of pummeling aural turbulence on a 12" slab for those who desire reality over cosplay. Building off the shockwaves of 2020’s Condemnation, Public Acid’s sound—a skewed, arty amalgamation of bludgeoning hardcore, frantic, riff- soaked d-beat, harsh noise, and underground metal—has only grown more focused and furious. There’s the virtuosic rhythm section, possessing an inhuman combination of lightness of touch and neanderthal power; the blinding, riffs-inside-of-riffs guitar style; the density of sound, massively heavy and pock-marked with kaleidoscopic fuzz; the maniacal vocals, inventive in both their technique and their rhythmic cadences; and, of course, the deadly mid-paced parts. Deadly Struggle reminds us that while hardcore punk will never die, those who cheapen it absolutely will.<br /><br />Recorded by Sasha Stroud at Artifact Audio in NYC and mastered by Arthur Rizk for maximum impact, each record comes in a screen printed jacket with cover art by Thomas Sara immersed in a hypnotic layout by Matt Martin, plus a large fold out poster designed by Tower Kevin.<br /><br />There are 250 copies on BLOOD RED vinyl for mailorder while they last.<br /><strong>EU / UK FOLKS!</strong> Static Shock (UK) and Sounds of Subterrania (Germany) will have an exclusive GREEN VINYL version of this record limited to 250 copies. As of writing this email they are still in transit, so please be patient and snag it from these fine folks when the time comes so you can save on shipping.<br /><br /><u><strong>CANAL IRREAL - SOMEONE ELSE'S DANCE LP</strong></u><br /><br />"What you hold in your hands is not exactly for you. It is not a delight for your senses, nor sonic inspiration for transgressing your restraints. It is not your empowerment tool. It is manifestly theirs— a portal to their arena of power, powerlessness, joy, hate, anger, fear, and failure. None of it is yours. Still, can you plug in, tune in, lock in to their dial? Are you capable of not giving in to escape and instead absorbing it? Are you capable of asking for more? You want the channel? Here it goes: the channel is walk into the dark and dance. Bop and beg. Lean and laugh. Stare and stomp. Afterwards, go ahead and yell “I failed!” Ride along to the signal-notes that ring like sirens across the city warning you that an odorless noxious gas has just been released into the air. But don’t run. Instead, lean into the pulse. The channel is bop your head, bounce your ass, sing, wade, stomp, and scream.<br /><br />Canal Irreal has rescinded and revoked your access to the splendid metropolis. The channel is fuck you. The channel is don’t ask them about Chicago, you don’t know it. The channel is don’t ask them about the fish; the Lake has consumed them all. Walk toward the darkness. Listen to the whispers and less to the wind. Lift your arms up to the melodic swings. Bounce your feet to the snap of the snare and flow of the bass. But don’t lose yourself—lock in. Are you capable of asking for more? Find the canal, or be clicked out by the clicker. Hold on to the wavelength or go back to normie-land. Canal Irreal is not hard or dark, it’s a portal to the personal, to desperation and exasperation. Go ahead and scream: “Doy todo y mucho mas.” This channel is not for your liberation. But do please tune in. What channel are you on now? Canal de mierda. Canal de chingado. Canal de sobrevivir. Canal Irreal. Bienvenidos." -Mike Amezcua<br /><br />Each copy of "Someone Else's Dance" is housed in a stunning jacket along with an 8 page zine, both of which were designed by singer Martin Sorrondeguy.<br /><br />There are 150 copies on TRANSLUCENT RED vinyl for mailorder while they last.<br /><br /><u><strong>SEXPILL - IN DUST WE TRUST 12" </strong></u><br /><br />There's something to be said about the great state/nation/planet of Texas and it's ability to seemingly ooze vicious hardcore punk from the cracks of the land mass it claims. After a series of demos and storied live performances home and elsewhere over the course of nearly a decade, SEXPILL gives us "IN DUST WE TRUST" - the band's first venture onto the 12" format. Each slab harnesses twelve tracks of belligerent and noisy hardcore punk, capturing Houston's finest at their most maniacal to date, featuring brand new tracks flanked by some reimagined fan favorites from the earlier mentioned demo days. IN DUST WE TRUST. IN DUST WE MUST.<br /><br />There are 150 copies on OPAQUE RED vinyl for mailorder while they last.<br /><br />As always, you can buy <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and buy / listen / download <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />It's also worth noting I came across a few hidden copies of the CONDOR 12" - will I get them up in the webstore by the time this email goes out?

Read on for more info...<br /><br />"Melbourne, Australia’s most feared hardcore cyber-vandal cell returns to wreak havoc on your network and your dance floors with the four-track “Psy Wi-Fi” EP. Following up the tightly-wound attack as heard on 2021’s “Pick A Path” 12”, Hacker have defragged the hardware and blown the dust out, striking again with more slightly more expansive songwriting. “Psy Wi-Fi” marks the welcome addition of a pinch more metal in the guitars and a fistful more pummel in the breakdowns to their established blueprint of direct, charging hardcore riffs, a rhythm section that is as agile as it is powerful, and one of the most expressive, capable and rabid vocalists in punk today. Update your firewall all you want, Hacker is coming. Expect them.

I know, I know, I don't do pre-orders often but with the GOLPE US TOUR quickly approaching we wanted to get this rolling not only to further spread the word on those dates but also bestow some goddamn tunes on you all. And with the MONEY 12" being ready around the same time I decided to include it in this batch. Please note, these should be shipping around the end of the month, thanks in advance for your patience and understanding! And in case any of my wholsale folks are reading this, I will be emailing you all with your info once the records land. Now that we have that outta the way, let's get down to the nitty gritty...<br /><br /><strong><u>GOLPE - ASSUEFAZIONE QUOTIDIANI EP</u></strong><br /><br />It's with a great sense of pride that we announce the arrival of new material from Italy's GOLPE. Serving as the highly anticipated follow up to 2021's La Colpa È Solo Tua on the Sorry State label, Tadzio Pederzolli (the mastermind behind this one man band) has once again gifted us with an ace hardcore punk recording, upping the fervor and delivery in a way that most couldn't imagine after the already furious debut LP which he also recorded on his own during the pandemic. The Assuefazione Quotidiana 7" EP features five absolute pounders of tracks, giving us more of the D-Beat based hardcore punk listeners came to love from the initial release with nods to Italian classics as the foundation of it all, topped off with politically and socially charged lyrics challenging modern norms and injustices. Truly a breath of fresh air sonically and philosophically. Each record comes with a stunning fold out poster, two inserts with the lyrics in Italian and one with an English translation, all topped off with a striking and straight-forward layout featuring the art and design from Tadzio's mind, executed with the help of co-conspirators.<br /><br />There are 100 copies on RED VINYL for preorder while they last! <br /><br />EUROPE - please obtain this ass kicker of a 7" from the mad lad Ellis over at <a data-cke-saved-href="https://staticshockrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/featured" href="https://staticshockrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/featured" target="_blank">Static Shock Records</a>.<br /><br /><u><strong>MONEY - S/T 12"</strong></u><br /><br />MONEY? MONEY. MONEY are the Texas blackened metal punks who dropped that FINAL BAG Demo and 3 A.M. ETERNAL EP on us in recent years. It can be hard to keep up with the deluge of mostly bullshit that comes up on a daily basis but MONEY stands alone. Their "members of" list is impressive but it’s unnecessary in light of the blistering 1-2 of licks and rapid fire drums. And while the aforementioned releases came into being via cassettes on the great Roach Leg Records and from the band themselves respectively, B.I.R. is proud to have these 7 corrosive tracks on vinyl for the first time.<br /><br />Amphetamine fueled riffs for moral decline. MONEY. FFO: Darkthrone, Anti-Cimex, Sepultura, G-Zet. Remastered by Arthur Rizk, this collection of the initial efforts by MONEY is both for the well acquainted and those who might have missed the tapes when they dropped. Limited to 666 copies, half on COKE bottle clear and the other half on powder white vinyl. Each record comes in a jacket featuring art by Curse of Face and logo by Joe Chatt. Yee.<br /><br />Scum stats listed above in the description.<br /><br />And remember my mention of GOLPE's tour above? Here's the flyer! They'll be all around the east coast and midwest with the great ELECTRIC CHAIR. Not to be missed! The band will have plenty copies of the 7" to go around direct from them so if easier, please cop from the lovely Italians at one of their gigs!<br /><br /> <img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/17c0cc3b-f448-1d7d-be06-4605e7cf89e7.jpg" data-file-id="6722046" height="406" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/17c0cc3b-f448-1d7d-be06-4605e7cf89e7.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 406px; margin: 0px; width: 350px;" width="350" /><br /><br />I think that does it for now!

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!!!!<br /><br />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".<br /><br />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.<br /><br />Also, if you happen to consider such a version too fancy, fret not - our friends at <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.sorrystaterecords.com/" href="https://www.sorrystaterecords.com/" target="_blank">Sorry State</a> 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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />All that said, you can order <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and order / stream / download <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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!<br /><br />-B.I.R.</p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-81417763276024544452023-08-11T09:00:00.001-04:002023-08-11T09:00:00.138-04:008/11/23 - Мир - MINDECISION 12" + GRAVEN IMAGE 12" repress out now!<div style="text-align: center;"><img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/_compresseds/87297aba-a803-3eff-e484-709a4c631335.jpg" data-file-id="6712150" height="300" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/_compresseds/87297aba-a803-3eff-e484-709a4c631335.jpg" width="300" /></div><br /><p>WHAT IS UP? Very excited to let y'all know that I got a new one and a repress ready to roll - both of which are decades old hardcore punk from the Old Dominion state. Isn't that something else? Welp, let's go for it:<br /><br /><strong>Мир - MINDECISION 12"</strong><br /><br />By now, it's not surprising that the dissemination of the hardcore punk movement in it's infancy seeped into the pores of nearly the entire planet. Of course, all the major cities worldwide developed burgeoning hardcore scenes that yielded the classics we know and love but there's something to be said about the less known spots on the map and their select inhabitants that were swept up in the fervor of it all, like some of those in the sleepy valley town of Roanoke tucked away in the tranquil Blue Ridge mountain region of Southwest Virginia. It was in that city, circa 1984, that four teenagers came together to form Мир or, for the non-Cyrillicaly inclined, simply MNP. The band name, pronounced "Mihr" per the and which translates from Russian to peace, was also the group's mission statement and driving force in their brief existence. Having played a slew of gigs locally and elsewhere alongside contemporaries like CORROSION OF CONFORMITY, SCREAM, BATTALION OF SAINTS and DEATH PIGGY among others, they left as quickly as they came, disbanding in the summer of 1985 before most of the members left for college. Thankfully, the band entered the studio earlier that year before calling it a day. The tracks that made up the criminally underrated and sparsely circulated "MINDECISION" cassette are a crucial entry into the annals of early Virginia hardcore punk history, featuring twelve cuts of scorching USHC executed by small town high school kids. Remastered from the original reels by Chris Corry, each record comes in a jacket adorned with the original cover art by drummer Lawson Jaeger, featuring a 12" x 24" insert chock full of live photos, flyers and other ephemera plus liner notes by guitarist Spencer Edmunds. <br /><br />There are 100 copies on WHITE VINYL for mailorder only while they last!<br /><br />Also, the GRAVEN IMAGE - STUDIO SESSIONS: '82-'83 12" has been freshly repressed on coke bottle clear vinyl and is limited to 175 copies. If ya missed out the first time around, get one of these while ya can!<br /><br />As always, you can snag <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and stream / download / snag <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />In distro news, the crown jewel of this update has to be the AMAZING new LP by France's DELETAR on the great Kick Rock Records. It's selling out from stateside distros left and right, get ya one if ya haven't already.<br /><br />In addition to that, there's a very diverse smattering of fan club slabs in the store, only one of which is remotely punk related. Take a look... OHHHH YEAYYYUH!<br /><br />Anyhow, keeping this one short and sweet. MUCH MORE TO COME BEFORE THE YEAR IS OUT like new slabs from PARANOID, PUBLIC ACID, HACKER and some others I can't announce yet. Expect pre-order info for a couple very soon... <br /><br />STAY COOOL,<br />-B.I.R.</p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-45996697202931313072023-07-07T09:00:00.001-04:002023-07-07T09:00:00.144-04:007/7/23 - INTENTION - BRAND NEW STORY 12" + WARTHOG 7" repress out now!!<p> </p><div style="text-align: center;"><img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/9f867b63-315b-e36e-346a-5baffe3e21cd.jpg" data-file-id="6706577" height="350" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/9f867b63-315b-e36e-346a-5baffe3e21cd.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 350px; margin: 0px; width: 350px;" width="350" /></div><p>To quote an anthem of a generation, "it's been a whiiiiiile" and another one that's like "hey hey I-I woah woah I'm still aliiiiive" etc etc but I am EXCITED to let you all know that not only do I have a long awaited repress ready to roll but there's also a Japanese hardcore scorcher in tow as well.

Very excited to announce this one that's been in the works for some time now - the initial release from HEAVEN'S GATE! Read on for more information and please note that this is a pre-order that'll be shipping on or around 2/24/23. GET SOME:<br /><br />Emerging from the swamps of “the other Bay Area”, Tampa, Florida’s Heaven's Gate debut with their first release, a self titled 12" released via Beach Impediment Records. Heaven’s Gate consists of Tony Foresta (Municipal Waste) on vocals, Mike Goo (Warthog) on guitar, Jeff Howe (Reversal of Man) on bass, and Paul Mazurkiewicz (Cannibal Corpse) on drums. Consisting of five tracks that merge an amalgam of hardcore, punk and extreme metal's most aggressive elements, this initial offering from HEAVEN'S GATE showcases a range of colliding styles that are to be expected from these veterans of varied approaches to heavy music. Recorded across 2022 by Jeramie Kling and Taylor Nordberg, mixed by Will Killingsworth and mastered by Joel Grind, this one sided 12" with a marvelously etched b-side adorned with the band's logo is set to drop Friday February 24th, 2023. Each record comes in a full color jacket featuring the intricate artwork of Alexander Heir (Death/Traitors, L.O.T.I.O.N.) and is available on limited translucent purple vinyl (out of 200 copies) and yellow vinyl (out of 300 copies) along with the standard black vinyl variant. Also available on CD in Japan from Break the Records!<br /><br />As always, you can buy <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and stream / download / buy <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>. <br /><br />Be sure to follow the band on <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.instagram.com/heavensgate_fla/" href="https://www.instagram.com/heavensgate_fla/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a data-cke-saved-href="https://heavensgatefl.bandcamp.com/album/heavens-gate" href="https://heavensgatefl.bandcamp.com/album/heavens-gate" target="_blank">Bandcamp</a> to keep an eye out for upcoming shows! Fingers crossed, we will have some advance copies of this slab ready for at least one of their gigs in the coming weeks.<br /><br />MUCH, MUCH, MUCH MORE TO COME THIS YEAR! I'll let y'all know more on that once these ship next month. In the meantime, please take care of yourselves!

Only a few days left in the year so I figured we'd unleash the North American pressings of two of my favorite SCANDI SLAMMERS that came out this year before 2023 rears it's inevitably ugly head. So let's go, shall we?<br /><br /><u><strong>VIDRO - GLÖD 12"</strong></u><br /><br />And here we have it, the North American pressing of VIDRO's brilliant 2nd 12" titled "GLÖD." Featuring an amalgamation of members that span the globe from Brazil to the USA to their sonic and geographical home of Stockholm, Sweden, VIDRO have been churning out quality hardcore punk in recorded and live settings for five years now with no apparent signs of letting up anytime soon. Previously released on Germany's Kink Records near the outset of 2022, this North American pressing serves both as a means to alert the uninitiated of what they've been missing along with providing a taste of what is to come. Each record comes in a jacket with a large poster, featuring design work and art by VIDRO guitarist Lucas Lima. <br /><br />There are 100 copies on RED VINYL for mailorder while they last.<br /><br />European friends! Please order this record from <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.kink-records.de/catalog/" href="https://www.kink-records.de/catalog/" target="_blank">KINK RECORDS</a> in Germany as they are handling the pressing of this one on your land mass.<br /><br /><br /><strong><u>INDRE KRIG - DESTROYER EP</u></strong><br /><br />Released earlier in the year on the magnificent Adult Crash Records out of Copenhagen, Denmark, Beach Impediment is pleased to handle the North American pressing of an absolute, bonafide international hardcore punk ripper... the "DESTROYER" EP from INDRE KRIG! Six tracks of razor sharp musicianship with truly memorable hooks and riffs to match it, this platter keeps up the reputation K-Town has garnered for generating quality punk music over the course of multiple decades now. Each record comes in a pocket sleeve embellished with particularly striking art by the living legend we call Nicky Rat. <br /><br />There are 100 copies on RED VINYL for mailorder while they last.<br /><br />European friends! Please order this record from <a data-cke-saved-href="https://adult-crash.com/wp/" href="https://adult-crash.com/wp/" target="_blank">ADULT CRASH</a> in Denmark as they are handling the pressing of this one on your land mass.<br /><br />Will these stellar bands be coming over to North America in 2023?! Stay tuned to find out :)<br /><br />Got a slight smattering of distro items too. It's no surprise I'm a distro coward this day and age due to so many that do it so much better and a general lack of spare time, but shit, man, every now and then I gotta snag some stuff. Like the reissue of Public Acid's debut 12" release "EASY WEAPONS" on the stellar LVEUM label. I would say to be sure to snag a copy of the CONDEMNATION EP with it if ya hadn't already buuuut that one is officially out of print as of the other day when I mailed the last copy off to our country's heartland. But hey, expect something new from these lovely folks in 2023.<br /><br />In addition to this, the geniuses at Black Water have given the first couple LP's from PDX kings LONG KNIFE the reissue treatment as well! The long awaited repress of the "CURB STOMP EARTH" LP still ain't here (fingers crossed for sometime on January) but if you slept on these I highly recommend snagging them in the meantime. Yes.<br /><br />Check the store for some other random and not so random slabs - some fan club funnies, some marked down stuff, yadda yadda. Might even put my dog on there. </p><p><strong>**Oh and JUST A HEADS UP - I will not be shipping anything until the first week of the new year. Thanks for your understanding and patience!**</strong></p><p>And with that, I wanna thank y'all for another great year. The pitfalls and annoyances that come with releasing records this late into the 21st century are plentiful so the bands that trust me with their art and the wonderful folks that enjoy the releases more than make up for all that bullshit. Additional shout outs to the stores and distros that keep it going with their tireless work, the folks behind the scenes recording, mixing, mastering, transferring long forgotten reels, etc for these releases and my lovely pressing plant right here in Virginia that makes shit happen for me. Thanks and see you again in about a month or so for a very special pre-order... cheers!<br /><br />-B.I.R.</p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-63918410771821410302022-11-25T09:00:00.004-05:002022-11-25T09:00:00.229-05:0011/25/22 - New Releases: THE CHISEL / MESS Split 7" & GRAVEN IMAGE - STUDIO SESSIONS: '82-'83 12" OUT NOW!!<p> </p><p> <img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/cec21334-d3a5-2a1a-dd8d-9c0a6272c92f.jpg" data-file-id="6480097" height="248" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/cec21334-d3a5-2a1a-dd8d-9c0a6272c92f.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 248px; margin: 0px; width: 250px;" width="250" /><img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/139d5950-7582-d550-7d3c-ace3b9d0cb65.jpg" data-file-id="6480101" height="250" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/139d5950-7582-d550-7d3c-ace3b9d0cb65.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 250px; margin: 0px; width: 250px;" width="250" /><br /><br />HEY! Got a couple new ones I'm dropping on y'all the week of the beginning of the obnoxious holiday vortex that'll unfold for the next 6 weeks or so. As abysmal as that might be, these records are both butt kickers despite being 4 decades apart in their creation. With that said, let's get on with it:<br /><br /><u><strong>GRAVEN IMAGE - STUDIO SESSIONS: '82-'83 12"</strong></u><br /><br />In the summer of 1982, an already burgeoning scene in Richmond, VA saw the arrival of some new blood in the form of GRAVEN IMAGE. Taking both inspiration and influence from the hardcore punk explosion that was well underway all over the world, these youngsters who met at a local skate ramp channeled their aggression through the no bullshit hardcore punk that they churned out in their few years of existence. Having shared the stage with a veritable who's who of punk at the time (BAD BRAINS, MINOR THREAT, NECROS, C.O.C., VOID, THE FU's, etc) throughout the Mid-Atlantic, the band's explosive live performance fronted by the powerful and charismatic Dwayne Curd was evidence that they could hold their own when billed with the aforementioned titans of the genre. "THE STUDIO SESSIONS: '82-'83" features the entirety of GI's recorded studio output - first from the "YOUR SKULL IS MY BOWL" session circa fall of 1982 that became the extremely rare and sought after split tape with fellow local juvenile upstarts HONOR ROLE, and lastly from the "KICKED OUT OF THE SCENE" EP session that was recorded in 1983 and released the following year, plus some previously unreleased tracks from each of the studio outings that yielded these 22 tracks of USHC fury! Carefully transferred and restored from the original reels, each record comes with a 12 page booklet chock full of photos, flyers and even some liner notes from guitarist Nick Smilek and drummer Joey Boisineau. For admirers of early American Hardcore and not much else.<br /><br />There are 100 copies on MAROON VINYL available for mailorder while they last.<br /><br />EUROPE! Please purchase this one from <a data-cke-saved-href="https://mendeku.com/en/" href="https://mendeku.com/en/" target="_blank">Mendeku Diskak</a> as they are handling the European pressing of this slab. <br /><br /><u><strong>THE CHISEL / MESS Split 7"</strong></u><br /><br />Bloody fucking hell! Two of modern Oi's finest together on a slab, you say?! You bet your ass! THE CHISEL (London, England) and MESS (Guadalajara, Mexico) have teamed up to deliver quite the sonic melee of a split 7" featuring two new ones from each group that showcase the balance of proficient songwriting and brute force that both bands have gained a well deserved reputation for over the past couple years. And as the The Chisel Boys' reiterative chorus resounds through the speakers while you're spinning this platter, you'll know that it's true - you truly ain't seen nothing yet as this is but a taste of what's to come from both of these stalwarts of the genre. Featuring art and layout by the great Nicky Rat, this record is a one time pressing so snag it while ya can or don't! COME ON NOW!!!<br /><br />There are 300 copies on WHITE VINYL available for mailorder while they last.<br /><br />As always, both releases can be purchased <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and streamed / downloaded / purchased <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />There ain't much else to report at the moment! FINGERS CROSSED we will have the INDRE KRIG 7" and VIDRO 12" ready to roll next month alongside the highly anticipated repress of the LONG KNIFE - CURB STOMP EARTH LP. Stay tuned...<br /><br />Peace!<br /><br />-B.I.R.</p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-56938730541899664782022-09-13T09:00:00.001-04:002022-09-13T09:00:00.168-04:009/13/22 - LONG KNIFE - CURB STOMP EARTH LP OUT NOW!!<div style="text-align: center;"><img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/ad45e438-f8b2-4df1-e8f9-812731e349ce.jpg" data-file-id="6448373" height="275" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/ad45e438-f8b2-4df1-e8f9-812731e349ce.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 275px; margin: 0px; width: 275px;" width="275" /></div><p>Greetings! I'm excited to deliver the news that the long awaited 3rd LP from PDX hardcore punks LONG KNIFE is finally available to the masses! If you were lucky enough to snag a record release copy at their hometown gig with RIXE last month or stumbled across the recording on the band's very own <a data-cke-saved-href="https://longknife.bandcamp.com/" href="https://longknife.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Bandcamp page</a> then you're well aware of wallop packed in this platter. Let's get right down to it:</p><p><b><u>LONG KNIFE - CURB STOMP EARTH LP</u></b></p><p>"The third chapter in the decade long existence of one of the most depraved Portland hardcore bands ever. If you know, you know, as LONG KNIFE has channeled and perfected the POISON IDEA sound, though if you pay attention to their catalog, you can see how they have evolved into their own beast over the years, making the PI comparisons trite. Every song on this record offers something different, whether it’s keyboards, horns (yep), what sounds to be operatic gang vocals, or just straight up hardcore bangers. This LP still maintains the intensity, insanity, and aggression these maniacs are known for, though there seems to be a bit more melody thrown in under the chaos this time. The riffs, solos, bass licks and Colin’s vocals/lyrics are just as awesome as ever. And of course, the lyrics are just as cynical, disturbing, and well written as we’ve come to expect. There is no slowing down for these guys and the Earth is ready to be curb stomped again and again with LONG KNIFE’s fucked up pummeling songs for these fucked up times. Each record comes in a deluxe package - thick jacket, printed inner sleeve and a huge poster plus stunning cover art by Alina Radetsky."<br /><br />There are 100 copies on TURQOUISE VINYL with special screened sleeves available for mailorder while they last. You can purchase it <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and purchase / stream / download it <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />It's also worth mentioning that this is a split release with <a data-cke-saved-href="https://blackwaterpdx.com/" href="https://blackwaterpdx.com/" target="_blank">BLACKWATER RECORDS</a> who has their own variant of the record for all of you completists out there. Holler at Keet if orange is a far more palatable color for ya! Word on the street is he might even have a few more of the record release version kicking around on his site as well...<br /><br />Loads of distro updates! Here's a little glimpse of what we're working with:<br /><br />TOTALITAR - 1998-2002 12"<br />OUTPATIENTS - READMITTED LP<br />SYNDROME 81 - PRISONS LP<br />RIGOROUS INSTITUTION - CAINSMARSH LP<br />SAMHAIN - THE HORROR OF LODI 12"<br />HORRENDOUS 3D - S/T EP<br /><br />+ E V E N M O R E ! ! ! Take a deep dive via the Big Cartel link above.<br /><br />That does it for now on the new release front! Up next, before the year is out I am hoping to have these two out that are currently in production:<br /><br />GRAVEN IMAGE - STUDIO SESSIONS: '82-'83 12"<br />THE CHISEL / MESS - Split 7" (US press)<br /><br />Stay tuned for an exact release date as these items come into existence! Hopefully that'll be soon, pressing plants willing...<br /><br />After that (and hopefully before 2022 is out, we shall see), expect domestic pressings of two recently released Scandinavian rippers - Sweden's <a data-cke-saved-href="https://vidro.bandcamp.com/music" href="https://vidro.bandcamp.com/music" target="_blank">VIDRO</a> - GLOD 12" and Denmark's <a data-cke-saved-href="https://indrekrig.bandcamp.com/" href="https://indrekrig.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">INDRE KRIG</a> - DESTROYER EP. More on that as it develops along with more archival releases (some I've already announced and some I haven't), more modern releases, etc etc etc. <br /><br />As always, thanks for your time and I hope all is well for you and yours. Enjoy the tunes and take care!<br /><br />-B.I.R.</p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-48598877905444764592022-07-22T09:00:00.002-04:002022-07-22T09:00:00.153-04:007/22/22 - PHANTASIA - GHOST STORIES 12" OUT NOW!<p> </p><p style="text-align: center;"><img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/9326690d-60d2-b8f9-2d54-22e921444a91.png" data-file-id="6432117" height="300" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/9326690d-60d2-b8f9-2d54-22e921444a91.png" style="border: 0px; height: 300px; margin: 0px; width: 300px;" width="300" /><br /></p><p><br />Howdy gang! We got a new one on deck - the debut 12" from NYC's <a data-cke-saved-href="https://phantasia.bandcamp.com/" href="https://phantasia.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Phantasia</a>, available NOW for order! More on all that below. We were hoping to have some more slabs ready for ya but there are various projects in various stages of limbo that I will not bore ya with. With that said, expect some more before the year is out, yeah? On to the matter at hand!<br /><br /><u><strong>PHANTASIA - GHOST STORIES 12"</strong></u><br /><br />Pastels by candlelight, a spilled bottle, cigarettes burnt to the filter, the outline of a face being tanned by a flickering neon light, the vinyl debut from NYC's Phantasia is hard to get out of your head. A polytropos of black lace tinged beachfront kitsch melted together with the clever gloom of prime-era American indie, all topped by the wavering and haunting vocals of what could be likened to a baritone Siouxie Sioux. Elements of death rock, pure pop, punk, and rock and roll are all here fighting for space amongst lilting synths, reverb-soaked guitars, and muscular drumming. Recorded and mixed by Sasha Stroud, this captures both the spirit of their influences — the Feelies, Alaska y Dinarama, Bruce Springsteen, and Pylon — but holds nothing back in terms of what these songs are capable of sounding like in the 21st century. Each record comes in a jacket adorned with art by Phantasia's own Dylan Cameron.<br /><br />Words by Jonah "Birdass" Falco.<br /><br />There are 100 copies on PURPLE VINYL for mailorder only available <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here </a>and <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here </a>while they last.<br /><br />UK FRIENDS - the living legends at <a data-cke-saved-href="https://staticshockrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/featured" href="https://staticshockrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/featured" target="_blank">STATIC SHOCK</a> have multiple copies of this record including a good grip of them on purple vinyl, go snag since that postage cost will be way less barbaric than the one coming from me! <br /><br />EURO FRIENDS - In other across the pond news, the fine folks at Germany's <a data-cke-saved-href="https://neu.soundsofsubterrania.com/" href="https://neu.soundsofsubterrania.com/" target="_blank">SOUNDS OF SUBTERRANEA</a> also have copies for those not looking to break the bank. More to come on this front!<br /><br />Loads and loads of distros, stores and other record selling entities have copies en route as we speak, so keep an eye or two peeled for that.<br /><br />Despite my vows to stop doing a distro there's a little bit of activity here and there as of late... we got the long awaited Gentleman Jesse single from Third Man Records that serves as a companion piece to the "Lose Everything" LP that B.I.R. released back in November of last year, the first slab from legendary local label Zero Degree records in nearly 40 years - the L'AMOUR / BEEX split 12", some vintage French Oi via the D.E.M. Demo 7", some classic Midwestern American hardcore punk in the form of the Violent Apathy 7" from Radio Raheem and No Idols, some varied fan clubbery and whenever the USPS allows it I will have some hot slabs from PDX's finest Black Water, so check back in at a later date should ya need some Syndrome 81, Rigorous Institution, or any of that. <br /><br />In the coming months, if the various set backs holding stuff back at the moment subside we'll FINALLY let loose some hits like the LONG KNIFE - CURB STOMP EARTH LP (a split release with the aforementioned Black Water), the GRAVEN IMAGE - STUDIO SESSIONS '82-'83 12", the US press of THE CHISEL / MESS Split 7" and hopefully the RED CROSS - NO MESSAGE 12". There might be a few others as well but your guess is as good as mine the way shit is these days! <br /><br />Stay tuned! Please be well in the meantime.<br /><br />-Mark / B.I.R.</p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-35951399696222677682022-03-15T09:00:00.007-04:002022-03-15T09:00:00.154-04:003/15/22 - New releases from MERCENARY and PEACE DECAY OUT NOW!!<p> <img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/ffbe0c78-b5fe-3110-e6c4-3719b177e628.jpg" data-file-id="6294406" height="250" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/ffbe0c78-b5fe-3110-e6c4-3719b177e628.jpg" width="250" /> <img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/7c0f2b81-f8cc-c4d1-f7cc-ca631b41bb8e.jpg" data-file-id="6294410" height="250" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/7c0f2b81-f8cc-c4d1-f7cc-ca631b41bb8e.jpg" width="250" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Yo, I hope y'all have been well! Here's the first offerings from the Beach Impediment Label for the year 2022. Let's do it:<br /><br /><u><strong>MERCENARY - DEMOS COLLECTION 12"</strong></u><br /><br />While this is titled “Demos Collection,” it’s actually a discography–the collected works of one of the most ferocious hardcore groups to come out of the Southeast in the last decade. Mercenary’s noisy, heavy riffing blends Scandinavian and Japanese influences, and the drums blaze a frantic d-beat. It’s the vocals, though, that propel their recordings into the stratosphere. Vocalist Michael “Ruby” Rubenstein was at his most unchained in Mercenary, and his performance here has been likened to a “Neanderthal’s battle cry.” While modern science has concluded that Neanderthals were complex primates capable of art and symbolic thought, they were probably terrifying to face in a struggle for survival. While they had some enticing opportunities, the band never committed anything to vinyl save a comp track. They broke up in 2015, leaving behind two tapes and achieving legendary status for their pummeling live performances in Atlanta.<br /><br />In 2021, Ruby passed away unexpectedly, a devastating loss for friends, punks, and music dorks around the world. This album is not only a brutal slab of tuneage, it’s also an important artifact representing Ruby’s life and his love of music. The tracks on this LP have been remixed and remastered to better capture the band’s intensity, and the album comes with a foldout insert and a photo of Ruby in action along with stark cover art by Joe Della. If Mercenary flew under your radar the first time, you missed out. Snag this once and future bonzer now. Proceeds from the sales of this record will go to a mural in memory of Ruby as well as the <a data-cke-saved-href="https://atlantaharmreduction.org/" href="https://atlantaharmreduction.org/" target="_blank">Atlanta Harm Reduction Coalition</a>. Limited to a one time pressing of 500 copies.<br /><br />100 copies on SEA GLASS VINYL for mailorder while they last!<br /><br /><u><strong>PEACE DECAY - DEATH IS ONLY... 12"</strong></u><br /><br />Here we have it, the debut release from the Austin, TX hardcore punk powerhouse known as PEACE DECAY. "Death is Only..." features six tracks of the blazing and pummeling hardcore ferocity you'd expect from a group consisting of current and former members of VAASKA, SEVERED HEAD OF STATE, GUERRA FINAL and many more acts the great nation of Texas has bequeathed to us, the hardcore faithful, over the past few decades or so. Mastered by Jack Control at Enormous Door, each record comes in a full color matte jacket adorned with cover art by vocalist Enok Vazquez and also features a stunning 11" x 17" collage by Barcelona visual artist and analog collagist JFKollages. Much like death, this initial offering from PEACE DECAY is only the beginning. <br /><br />100 copies on OPAQUE BLUE VINYL for mailorder while they last!<br /><br />It's also worth mentioning that the 3rd press of the BEEX - THE EARLY YEARS: 1979-1982 12" has finally arrived as well! 250 copies on a SMOKY VINYL, snag em while ya can! And while we still eagerly await the arrival of the 2nd press of the SOCIO LA DIFEKTA - KRESKI EP (hopefully only a couple more months at most), I came across a few straggler copies with slightly damaged covers that I've put up at a reduced rate for those who don't care about things like imperfect print material, corners dinged in transit, etc etc. <br /><br />As always, you can obtain copies of these records via the<a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank"> Beach Impediment Records Big Cartel</a> aka OL' FAITHFUL.<br /><br />You can stream / download these records AND purchase them via the <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Beach Impediment Records Bandcamp</a>.<br /><br />Be on the lookout for new slabs from LONG KNIFE, GRAVEN IMAGE, PHANTASIA, RED CROSS, WHITE CROSS and many more through out the year that have yet to be announced but will be soon enough, like an absolute shit kicker of a split that I just sent off to be cut the other day. Stay tuned!!!<br /><br />Record bullshit aside, please continue to stay safe and navigate this strange new world the best you can. It's pretty much two years to the week since this shit all went down and what a stretch of time it's been. It's nice seeing shreds of normalcy return and we can only hope for some permanence to that. Time will tell.<br /><br />Be well, stay safe, keep rocking,<br />-B.I.R.</p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-23115096620370906792021-11-19T09:00:00.001-05:002021-11-19T09:00:00.156-05:0011/19/21 - GENTLEMAN JESSE - LOSE EVERYTHING LP + SOCIO LA DIFEKTA - KRESKI EP OUT NOW!!<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIsFFJF7HWpZUqWqYUbizoKeQ_ADPA50mdflGcEF5toh9Ciel7gHSMTKGUG4GVSaA0Cm_3ULS8jFw-BwjznRz6OA0cFRrqw9tm3nCxTT-yMEW-2Zcfyz1zumc4aWkVVFZ7ICzOl9rtvWY/s1200/GJLP.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIsFFJF7HWpZUqWqYUbizoKeQ_ADPA50mdflGcEF5toh9Ciel7gHSMTKGUG4GVSaA0Cm_3ULS8jFw-BwjznRz6OA0cFRrqw9tm3nCxTT-yMEW-2Zcfyz1zumc4aWkVVFZ7ICzOl9rtvWY/w320-h320/GJLP.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgABvoaMHnLKcgfq0FkIWtEGB71uazT9Fs4CPyPl-OsF20htVmSYKvbijOFQAHaWcz59he2WlEg-z-4NPYMiVrYSvz-jmoovtKGvP1W6G1YOPmYd-QyscU0c1zVW1Dylz0865Y3rN2zKY8/s1200/SLDEP.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgABvoaMHnLKcgfq0FkIWtEGB71uazT9Fs4CPyPl-OsF20htVmSYKvbijOFQAHaWcz59he2WlEg-z-4NPYMiVrYSvz-jmoovtKGvP1W6G1YOPmYd-QyscU0c1zVW1Dylz0865Y3rN2zKY8/s320/SLDEP.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><br /><div><br /></div><div>Happy days, my friends! Here we have it - the final entries into the Beach Impediment catalog for the year 2021. A mixed bag if I do say so myself! It was an interesting year to press records, that's for sure, and I'm thrilled to see it out with these two! Proceed for more information on these titles + some other news.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>GENTLEMAN JESSE - LOSE EVERYTHING LP</u></b></div><div><br /></div><div>After ten long years away from the studio, Gentleman Jesse returns to us bearing a new ten-track album that benefits greatly from the wisdom and heartbreak that a decade of life on this planet affords. An album titled "Lose Everything" is bound to have its dark side, and behind the powerful melodies and jangly guitars a hint of sadness hangs in the air. But Jesse makes a bad time a good listen—after all, he's responsible for tunes like Carbonas' "Phone Booth" and his debut single "I Don't Wanna Know." While age tends to water down the output of older musicians, it's had the opposite effect on Jesse. Gone is any semblance of kitsch or power-pop convention. Also gone are his band—he's flying solo this time. What remains is a dazzling, mature earworm of a guitar-pop album. Each record comes in a matte jacket adorned with the photography of Riley McBride and also includes a lovingly assembled booklet featuring lyrics and original woodcut prints made by the Gentleman himself.</div><div><br /></div><div>There are 200 copies on JADE VINYL available for mailorder while they last.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>SOCIO LA DIFEKTA - KRESKI EP</u></b></div><div><br /></div><div>Tokyo, Japan's SOCIO LA DIFEKTA have bestowed upon the international punk community a barn burner of a slab in the form of this, the "KRESKI" EP. Featuring members of regional greats like UNARM and MALIMPLIKI among others, this smashing debut contains 6 tracks of rabid yet precise hardcore punk topped off by the dual vocals of Nanae and Iŝimura catapulting their fierce howls in the Esperanto language. Recorded by Shigenori Kobayashi at Tokyo's legendary Noise Room, each record comes in a stunning DIY print sleeve along with a fold out insert chock full of the lyrics and their translations into Japanese and English; all of which was designed and laid out by bassist and renowned visual artist Ippei Matsui.</div><div><br /></div><div>There are 100 copies on BROWN VINYL available for mailorder while they last.</div><div><br /></div><div>You can purchase copies <a href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.</div><div><br /></div><div>You can stream the records in their entirety and purchase copies <a href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.</div><div><br /></div><div>The following titles have been repressed since we last spoke as well:</div><div><br /></div><div>PUBLIC ACID - CONDEMNATION EP</div><div>CONDOR - SINGLES 2017-2018 12" (500 copies on WHITE VINYL)</div><div>BEEX - THE EARLY YEARS: 1979-1982 12" (250 copies on YELLOW VINYL)</div><div><br /></div><div>We're hoping to have the 3rd press of the MUJERES PODRIDAS 12" in the coming weeks, stay tuned!</div><div><br /></div><div>On a more personal note, as an update to those who were following the situation since I posted the GoFundMe back in March of this year, Mikey Rodriguez of WHITE CROSS, RED CROSS, MOD SUBS and many other bands over the years lost his fight with liver cancer earlier this month. I had the distinct pleasure and honor of getting to know him while working on the White Cross and Red Cross projects over the past year and a half. He was a friend and will be missed dearly. In honor of his passing his family has started the Michael Rodriguez Memorial Fund to collect charitable donations for the children he left behind. In the event you feel led to do so, donations can be sent via PayPal or Venmo to @kimrod10 or snail mail to:</div><div><br /></div><div>Michael Rodriguez Memorial Fund</div><div>c/o Kim Rodriguez</div><div>PO BOX 221</div><div>Studley, VA 23162</div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks again to all who donated to help with his medical bills earlier this year, I can vouch for the fact that he was truly touched by such kindness coming from so many strangers.

After maaaaaannnnnyyyyyy delays I'm elated to FINALLY have this one available to y'all! An end of summer banger if there ever was one as exhibited by the tunes and the wonderful cover art. Oh and finally got some much needed 7" represses too, wow! Let's get right to it, bud:<br /><br /><strong><u>MUJERES PODRIDAS - MUERTE EN PARAÍSO 12"</u></strong><br /><br />Hailing from what could arguably be called one of the epicenters of great modern punk music, Austin's MUJERES PODRIDAS have broken their studio silence of a few years to deliver an absolute monster of a debut 12" slab. Considering the personnel in question here have served time in groups like CRIATURAS, VAASKA, KURRAKA in addition to already churning out two excellent releases in this current project, it comes as no surprise that "MUERTE EN PARAÍSO" exhibits 11 tracks of punk perfection with tight musicianship that can hold its own before being catapulted even further via the unmatched vocal delivery of Dru Molina, frantically spewing vitriolic acid in the Spanish language. Recorded at Deep Space 3 on Halloween of 2020 and mastered by Dan Randall at Mammoth Sound Mastering, each record comes in a glossy jacket adorned with stunning full color art and a fold out 11"x17" insert, both of which were designed by the bands own Phil Gonzalez.<br /><br />There are 100 copies on CLEAR VINYL for mailorder that can be ordered <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a> or <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />You can listen to the record <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>. Also check out the music video for the track "OVNI" <a data-cke-saved-href="https://youtu.be/m9u65RzEAXY" href="https://youtu.be/m9u65RzEAXY" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />In repress news, the <b>WARTHOG - S/T EP</b> is finally available once again! Got a good grip of copies on a limited translucent blue vinyl which can be copped in the webstore of your choice. It's crazy to think it's been 5 years since this behemoth of a slab came out - time flies but also crawls at a snail's pace. UK / EU folks, you can get your copies from Ellis at <a data-cke-saved-href="https://staticshockrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/featured" href="https://staticshockrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/featured" target="_blank">Static Shock</a> who has also repressed this modern day classic!<br /><br />And the <b>PUBLIC ACID - CONDMENATION EP</b> is once again available to the masses! The repress took a lot longer than we expected and a fair amount of copies got claimed by wholesale customers during that wait but we have a decent grip of em available! In the event we run out by the time you click this email, the always dependable <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.sorrystaterecords.com/" href="https://www.sorrystaterecords.com/" target="_blank">Sorry State</a> got an ass load of em so mosey on down there should ya need to...<br /><br />Speaking of represses, dog willing, I am hoping to have the following titles replenished within about a month's time:<br /><br />CANAL IRREAL - S/T 12"<br />BEEX - THE EARLY YEARS: 1979-1981 12" (yellow vinyl, /250)<br />CONDOR - SINGLES 2017-2018 12" (white vinyl, /500)<br /><br />I don't think I'm gonna do a mail out for those but keep an eye on your socials or whatever they say. In the meantime, if you got a keen eye / are good at Googling you can still find first press copies of the CANAL IRREAL and BEEX floating around here and there.<br /><br />In distro news, I'm sure it's the 69th time I've sworn off acquiring anything new BUT I just had to get some copies of the new new SCREAMING HUMAN SCUM 7" because it's a ripper made by a ripper. I've also added loads of titles to the 12" and 7" budget bins and marked down some older B.I.R. titles in the name of making way for a metric shit ton of new releases in the coming months. Peep the <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">Big Cartel</a> for more info on all of this.<br /><br />I think that about does it. Here's what's next on the agenda, definitely (hopefully lol) looking like the first two will be out before the year's end and I reckon we shall see regarding the others:<br /><br />SOCIO LA DIFEKTA - KRESKI EP<br />GENTLEMAN JESSE - LOSE EVERYTHING LP<br />MERCENARY - DISCOGRAPHY 12" <br />PEACE DECAY 12" <br />GRAVEN IMAGE - DISCOGRAPHY 12"<br />RED CROSS - NO MESSAGE: 1981-1982 12" (no, not that RED CROSS, this is pre WHITE CROSS)<br />WHITE CROSS - DISCOGRAPHY 2x12"<br /><br />+ some other assorted bangers TBA<br /><br />Much love! Please keep staying safe and making informed and intelligent decisions for the sake of those in our respective communities that depend on us to do so. <br /><br />-B.I.R.</p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-58626324072181170462021-06-25T09:00:00.002-04:002021-06-25T09:00:00.176-04:006/25/21 - NEW RELEASES from CANAL IRREAL, PSICO GALERA and BEEX OUT NOW!!<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p><p> <img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/5fb6f437-b392-22cc-f26e-a386a09c26ef.jpg" data-file-id="5934958" height="150" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/5fb6f437-b392-22cc-f26e-a386a09c26ef.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 150px; margin: 0px; width: 150px;" width="150" /><img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/f1c5c7a4-3a5f-166a-fea7-a17967168196.jpg" data-file-id="5934962" height="150" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/f1c5c7a4-3a5f-166a-fea7-a17967168196.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 150px; margin: 0px; width: 150px;" width="150" /><img data-cke-saved-src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/eaa3dea0-69ad-975e-dc52-52b46ecb9b96.jpg" data-file-id="5934966" height="150" src="https://mcusercontent.com/12614d981298b7e3090fd69bc/images/eaa3dea0-69ad-975e-dc52-52b46ecb9b96.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: 150px; margin: 0px; width: 150px;" width="150" /><br /><br />Well it's been a minute but I'm rather pleased to let y'all know that there are three new Beach Impediment releases officially out as of today! Thanks to all who preordered a few weeks back, there's still a few copies left of both the PSICO GALERA and BEEX 12"s on color for those who dig such things. We also recently repressed the LAFFING GAS 12" one more time - 150 copies on blue vinyl so snag it while ya can if you've been sleeping on it. Here's the usual spiel:<br /><br /><u>PSICO GALERA - LE STANZE DELLA MENTE 12"</u><br /><br />Flailing hardcore punk from Italy filled with lightning fast riffing, locomotive propulsion, all topped with tormented and blown out Nerorgasm(o)-ic vocals. Lying somewhere between a notion of what Wretched would have been trying to do on their second LP and what the lost secretly groove-laden EPs of early 80s Japan a la Bitousha were able to pull together, Psico Galera have made a very new splatter on an old canvas. Over the top guitar leads, slippery tempo shifts, and hints of melody amongst the tuneless torment allow this to hang together as a singular blast of modern punk.<br /><br />100 copies on YELLOW AND BLACK MARBLED VINYL for mailorder while they last! Still some leftover from preorder at the moment...<br /><br />Europeans - please order this title from <a data-cke-saved-href="https://staticagemusik.bandcamp.com/" href="https://staticagemusik.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Static Age Musik</a> who pressed it over in your neck of the woods!<br /><br /><u>CANAL IRREAL - S/T 12"</u><br /><br />The Beach Impediment Label is proud to present the debut release from Canal Irreal. This 12" brandishes 9 tracks of absolutely driving hardcore punk rock with the unmistakable bullhorn vocals of Martin Sorrondeguy, steering this careening blur in and out of tightly written musical corners. Featuring members of Sin Orden as well, there is a lot of Chicago punk rock DNA in here manifesting itself as aggression draped in burning, melancholic guitar leads and an unpredictable hazy melodic wash. Like Greg Sage ghost writing a Naked Raygun track while vacationing in Southern California! Recorded by guitarist Scott Plant and mastered by Jonah Falco, each record comes in a UV Gloss jacket adorned with art by Martin.<br /><br />150 copies on PURPLE VINYL are SOLD OUT (had a bunch damaged in transit too, long story) - still plenty on black though!<br /><br /><u>BEEX - THE EARLY YEARS: 1979-1982 12"</u><br /><br />In August of 1978, the young and burgeoning scene of Richmond, VA was rocked to it's very core by the untimely and tragic death of Ralph Harper - the frontman for one of the area's earliest punk bands known as RICKY AND THE WHITE BOYS. The city mourned the loss of their 23 year old comrade. Once the grief had subsided enough, Ricky along with a couple of the other members of the White Boys ultimately decided to form a new outfit to pick up where they'd left off. After a slew of auditions with hopeful candidates, they found their new band leader in the form of a Jersey transplant named Christine Gibson who's voice and personality were like none other they'd ever encountered. Earning their band name (which was in honor of the prominent beaks of the majority of the band) via the popular vote of the crowd at their first live gig in December of that same year, what followed was a blur of gigs throughout the Mid-Atlantic region and the creation of catchy and timeless punk songs that went hand in hand with Gibson's inability to even remotely suffer anyone's bullshit - be it from a smart ass in the crowd or within the ranks of her own band. While the latter would lead to some lineup changes in these formative years, little did all involved know that it was the beginning of a rock and roll odyssey that carries on to this very day. This record compiles the band's first couple studio sessions that yielded a pair of classic early American punk singles: 1979's " (My Heart Goes) Beat Beat b/w He Obliterates Me" on Wasp Records and 1982's "Butch b/w Empty House" on the great Zero Degree Records along with unreleased tracks from each session that have been lovingly remixed and remastered by Chris Corry. Each record comes in a stunning gatefold jacket featuring never before seen photographs, flyers and other imagery from four decades ago along with liner notes by founding guitarist Richard "Ricky" Buchanan, all of which give those who are curious a glimpse into the formative years of the mighty BEEX. <br /></p><p>100 copies on PINK VINYL with exclusive poster for mailorder while they last! Still some leftover from preorder at the moment...<br /><br />We've also added an option on the Big Cartel for those that slept on the L'AMOUR 12" to get it with this BEEX 12" at an extremely discounted rate, so jump on that if you're feeling wild!<br /><br />As always, you can buy these releases at the <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">Beach Impediment Records Big Cartel</a>. In addition to buying them at the <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Beach Impediment Records Bandcamp</a> you can also stream these releases there as well.<br /><br />While the distro is slowly being phased out, I've wrangled a few recent items that might tickle some fancies:<br /><br />HAKUCHI - BEST WORKS 1991-1994 12"<br />KALASHNIKOV - S/T EP (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, CLASSIC!)<br />JUNTA - DOD TID EP<br />WARCHILD - NO VICTORY IN DEATH EP<br /><br />+ loads of other stuff that's in the midst of being marked down. GET IT WHILE THE GETTIN'S GOOD, BOSS.<br /><br />Thanks again for all the preorders thus far / orders that will roll in today! The plan is to start shipping these out at the beginning of next week. Your patience is appreciated in advance! In other news, here's what will hopefully be out by the end of summer:<br /><br />MUJERES PODRIDAS - MUERTE EN PARAISO 12"<br />SOCIO LA DIFEKTA 7"<br />Represses of the PUBLIC ACID 7", the CONDOR 12" and some other fun stuff :)<br /><br />followed by some titles I'll announce next time that will HOPEFULLY see the light of day before the year is out. With that said, record pressing plant turn arounds are starting to look pretty grim so we shall see. That aside, hope all is well for you and yours - thanks for reading and take care!<br /><br />-B.I.R.</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><p></p>BEACH IMPEDIMENT RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15564738698712144297noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953737071765494283.post-34261136787749337932021-01-15T09:00:00.003-05:002021-01-15T09:00:00.955-05:001/15/21 - THE CHISEL - COME SEE ME / NOT THE ONLY ONE EP OUT NOW!!<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinXZ1rGsBZ7MLQf6IX7HdhFB-rhvLxBZZGtpbOxKZoByzfjh0imu5IYbu4aqOP6_xwZvmpUirvKiD5vqdwpzNOPKl8nPHtpUP29_m_UfVk9o3Geg39jY-18lIjwUrBjLYtkRTFIaag_-E/s1200/a4282651030_10.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinXZ1rGsBZ7MLQf6IX7HdhFB-rhvLxBZZGtpbOxKZoByzfjh0imu5IYbu4aqOP6_xwZvmpUirvKiD5vqdwpzNOPKl8nPHtpUP29_m_UfVk9o3Geg39jY-18lIjwUrBjLYtkRTFIaag_-E/s320/a4282651030_10.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p>Hey there folks,</p><p>Kicking off 2021 with North American pressing of this absolute shit kicker of a single, compliments of London's own THE CHISEL! Let's not waste another second and get right down to it:</p><p>"Chisel this, Chisel that" -- it's on my phone, it's on my hard drives, it's on my turntable, it's on my t-shirt, it's on my instagram, it's on my blogspot, it's tattooed on my forehead, my own parents renewed their wedding vows to "Rat Runnin Scared." I pressed stop. I unplugged my headphones, turned down the volume, and snapped that god forsaken single in HALF. Enough was enough! But see me, yeah. Once the music stopped only one thought rang through my head: What Have I Done? Where once there was explosive energy there was now a void. Lucky for me, the 5 loveable lads from Blackpool, Croydon, Acton, Chingford, and Guildford KEPT IT MOVIN, and just when I thought all was lost they brought me back in. Three more blasts of full fat extra saturated deep fried limb swinging confrontational uplifting chisel chiselling punk for that special space in your life. Enough said? No. Cos they've done it again."</p><p>-Jonah Falco, 2020</p><p>There are 150 copies on red vinyl for mailorder. 99% of them were sold via Bandcamp preorder last month BUT I have a few extra that will be up in the Big Cartel while they last!</p><p>You can purchase it <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/6953737071765494283/3426113678774933793#" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/">here</a> and stream it <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/6953737071765494283/3426113678774933793#" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/">here</a>.</p><p>Available in the UK / EU from <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/6953737071765494283/3426113678774933793#" href="https://www.lavidaesunmus.com/">La Vida Es Un Mus</a>.<br />Available in Japan from <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/6953737071765494283/3426113678774933793#" href="https://blackholekuroiana.bandcamp.com/">Blackhole</a>.</p><p>So the plan was to have the repress of the PUBLIC ACID - CONDEMNATION EP ready alongside this buuuuuut as the saying goes when man makes plans Dog laughs, or something... long story short the center labels took twice as long as they usually take and then FedEx lost said center labels in the post holiday shipping vortex, hence delaying said repress til the plant does their next cycle of 7" pressing.

What a journey it's been and who knows just what the hell is in store for the last month and some change of it. Now normally I'd feel kinda weird dropping releases a couple days before that stupid ass holiday at the end of November, but with everything the way it's been let's just shun tradtion go for it! Not to mention that if you're traveling willy-nilly for the aforementioned stupid ass holiday to share enclosed close quarters with others during a pandemic you're just kind of a piece of shit anyways and I hope you miss the email. All that science and reality talk aside, year nine of the label has been rather fulfilling and these last two slabs also bring us to a grand total of 50 entries thus far. Here's hoping for 69 (that's 19 more) before it's all said and done - anyways much to come in 2021 AKA year 10 of this circus. Keep your eyes, ears, etc peeled starting in January but as for the here and now... "let's rock."</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><u>PUBLIC ACID - CONDEMNATION EP</u></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">"Woo-wee! Public Acid, folks - the undisputed pride of North Carolina! Or is it Virginia now? A bit of both perhaps?! Ah hell, is acknowledging geographic location really even relevant when it comes to top shelf hardcore punk? The dead fucks that made those borders and boundaries wouldn't know shit about riffs anyway. In the couple years since their self released 12" came into being, the band has gigged all over the country (back when that was an option) and expanded their catalog further via a flexi and some cassettes, garnering much deserved attention and adoration from those fortunate enough to be enlightened with those scenarios and/or physical formats. But that was the old world and what matters here and now is that the "CONDEMNATION" EP is 6 urgent blasts of punk music that result in a sonic whirlwind that few others have previously concocted. In a genre that has become dominated by embarrassing posturing, this slab is a much welcomed breath of fresh air in an age of suffocating and uncertainty. Recorded and mastered at Artifact Audio in NYC by Sasha Stroud just before the shit hit the fan, each record comes in a folded sleeve both designed and screen printed by Public Acid collaborator and comrade Thomas Sara."</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">There are 100 copies on TRANSLUCENT PINK vinyl for mailorder while they last.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><u>MOMENT OF FEAR - COVID SESSIONS 2020 EP</u></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">"From the ashes of a pandemic stricken Long Beach, CA comes MOMENT OF FEAR!

Greetings friends,<br /><br />I hope you're all staying safe in this strange new world we find ourselves in, dominated by a global pandemic with no signs of slowing and a powder keg of police violence coming to a head with protest and resistance, the likes of which we haven't seen for many decades in my country and many others. It feels much longer than the 4 months that have passed since the last time I sent one of these out. At any rate, I hope you are all well and are doing what you can to strengthen your communities in these trying times. Speaking of which, a huge thank you to all who participated in the silent auction of B.I.R. test presses I did a couple months back. I was able to funnel around $2,200 into local groups here in Richmond, VA that are helping in light of the aforementioned crises we are facing. With this in mind, for the next week and a half the total of each band's downloads of their respective new releases will be going to local causes that mean a lot to them and require help with the current nightmare reality we find ourselves in. I will detail that below in a second. Continued solidarity with all risking their well being in the name of progress and the eradication of antiquated and inherently violent thought has steered our country since its inception. Thanks for reading... now onto the real reason you're here:<br /><br /><u><strong>DAME - S/T 12"</strong></u><br /><br />"At long last, as a follow up to the 7" on the band's own Charm School label a few years back, we are granted the debut 12" by Boston's DAME. Though currently spread out geographically, the quintet were able to capture these modern classic tracks of post punk / gothic brilliance at Side Two Studios before the world turned upside down on us all. Equal parts melancholic and haunting, these seven tracks permeate the deepest corners of your psyche, refusing to vacate for quite some time. Each record comes in a full color jacket along with a fold out 24" x 24" poster insert, both of which feature art by guitarist Anna Cataldo."<br /><br />There are 100 copies on BLUE VINYL for mailorder while they last.<br /><br />***Also, from now until Friday 8/7/20, all money from the downloads of this record will be going to the F2L Relief Fund per the request of the band. You can find more information on this organization <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.f2lrelieffund.org/" href="https://www.f2lrelieffund.org/" target="_blank">here</a>.***<br /><br /><u><strong>LONG KNIFE - NIGHT OF THE HUNTER b/w ROUGH LIVER 7"</strong></u><br /><br />Well shit, PDX's 21st century Kings of Punk have graced us with yet another slab of the hardcore punk perfection that they've been crafting for quite some time now! The world we live in has changed considerably since 2017's "Sewers of Babylon" EP and that is reflected in these two songs that serve as a precursor to the band's forthcoming and long awaited full length. While keeping to the tried and true hardcore punk formula that has served as a sonic vessel for numerous trips around the circuit there are some far more rocking elements in the mix this go around which is just a taste of what is to come. Each record comes in a full color glue pocket sleeve featuring a rather arousing back cover.<br /><br />There are 100 copies on CLEAR BLUE VINYL for mailorder while they last.<br /><br />***Also, from now until Friday 8/7/20, all money from the downloads of this record will be going to Don't Shoot PDX per the request of the band. You can find more information on this organization <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.dontshootpdx.org/" href="https://www.dontshootpdx.org/" target="_blank">here</a>.***<br /><br />As always, you can purchase physical copies of these records <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and download them from <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />Peep the webstore for some new items that are currently in there AND others on the way that have been insanely delayed due to the pandemic. Haven't been doing too much distro acquisition because there are others who do it better honestly - SHOUT OUT TO SORRY STATE AND FEEL IT (among others)!<br /><br />Obviously, no touring band news to report. Check back in like 2-3 years for that I'd say. Wear a fucking mask.<br /><br />UP NEXT:<br /><br />PUBLIC ACID 7"<br />MOMENT OF FEAR 7" (ex RELIGIOUS WAR)<br />WHITE CROSS Discography<br /><br />+ loads more in the works.<br /><br />Stay safe, y'all!<br /><br />-B.I.R. </div>

Well top of the bloody fokkin' mornin' to ya! The Beach Impediment label is here to bestow upon ye some Saint Patrick's Day cheer in the form of three brand new releases that you can blast before and after we're all quarantined due to being respectful and attentive to the needs of those in our populace with compromised immune systems in the face of this global pandemic! Read on for more information on that along with the latest (and greatest) distro items and mark downs, a re-up on the Beach Impediment canvas tote bags and lotsa other crap! To quote Lep in the Hood, "a friend with weed is a friend indeed but a friend with gold is <a href="https://youtu.be/USKaDV4yZcw">the best I'm told</a>" - that has nothing to do with these releases btw, I just got that flick on my mind due to the holiday at hand, ya feel me? But yeah, it's looking like I'll be outta work for at least the next couple weeks and plan to get these out to y'all ASAP starting tomorrow! ANYWAYS:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><u>MURO - PACIFICAR LP</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It's been a few years, countless miles of international touring that has exhibited their energetic live show to those lucky enough to witness it, and an incalculable amount of hours spent in rehearsal perfecting a breed of auditory frenzy that is all their own... and at long last we, the hardcore punk faithful, are rewarded with the great MURO delivering to us their latest LP titled "Pacificar." Many would have fathomed a follow up to 2017's "Ataque Hardcore Punk" to be quite the unthinkable feat, but these 11 tracks prove that MURO are far from a flash in the pan like so many others in this day and age and that they don't take the creation of their contributions to the greater punk canon lightly. As a testament to their unwavering work ethic and approach to presenting their art how they see fit, all print material was made by the band and friends at their Casa Rat Trap Collective in Bogota, Colombia and features a series of alternate versions of cover art a la The Execute's 1983 self titled EP compliments of the band's own Carlos Velásquez and Wilson Melo. It's a privilege to kick off yet another decade of hardcore punk with a release of this caliber. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There are 150 copies on WHITE VINYL for mailorder while they last!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Europeans! Please order this from <a href="http://adult-crash.com/wp/">ADULT CRASH RECORDS</a> in Denmark if you haven't already.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><u>LAFFING GAS - IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE GULCH LP</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Nearly four years after delivering a handful of demos along with a live tape then seemingly dropping off the radar release wise, Bloomington's LAFFING GAS swing back at any and all credulous hardcore punk enthusiasts who might have forgotten about them or thought they'd just run their course and faded into obscurity as so many tend to do. "It's a Beautiful Day in the Gulch" showcases 10 blazing tracks of classic Midwestern hardcore punk, the vibe of which is more in debt to the revolutionary aural offerings of the early Touch and Go and/or Version Sound labels or even Kick N' Punch Records as a slightly more modern reference than what the region has become synonymous with in more recent times. Each record comes in a stunning glossy jacket featuring art and layout by the band's guitarist Kora Puckett. Limited to 500 copies.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><u>VANITY - RARELY IF EVER b/w WE'RE FRIENDS 7"</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The second of two brand new singles that one of NYC's greatest will be gracing us with during this balmy winter and their first recorded output since the release of their highly praised "Evening Reception" full length, the Beach Impediment Label is honored to be an even minuscule component in releasing yet another slab for the almighty VANITY. With a track record of releases that spans the past 7 years, the style and approach of the group has (much to the dismay of some yet absolute delight of others) arguably seen it's fair share of metamorphosis over the course of this particular project's run. Yet amidst the sonic evolution exhibited by VANITY as their catalog has progressed, the expertise in conceiving an ever so catchy ditty still holds true as is evident with the A-Side "Rarely if Ever" - a track that is guaranteed to remain embedded in one's head for quite some time. "We're Friends" closes it all out on a triumphant and decidedly rocking note, bebé, leaving those who've been on this journey thus far yearning for what comes next. Limited to a one time pressing of 500 copies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I also went ahead and put together a little Vanity VALU PAK of sorts, for more on that check out the entry for the "Evening Reception" LP for more information on how to get that and the new 7" for a niiiiice priiiiice!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I also went ahead and did ONE MORE RUN of the Beach Impediment tote bags since the first batch disappeared so quickly. These ones are black with a greyish ink and definitely the last time that design will be used. Shout out to the homie Nolan, hit him up <a href="https://www.instagram.com/malokul202/?hl=en">here</a> for your screen printing needs.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In case you haven't heard, MURO had their European tour canceled in light of the global pandemic a good week into it and are currently stranded in London trying to get tickets back home to Colombia. To help with the unexpected travel fees, Paco over at La Vida Es Un Mus will be aiding the band in selling their leftover tour merch with the hope of recuperating some of the money lost. In the event it's easier for you to do so feel free to order the new record from LVEUM <a href="https://www.lavidaesunmus.com/">here</a> and help the band directly in this time of need.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
On the GIGGIN' front, keep your eyes peeled for WARTHOG at K-TOWN FEST along with a Northern European tour come June. LAFFING GAS will be touring select parts of the states come May in support of the new record, more on that as it develops. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Stay tuned for information regarding upcoming releases from the likes of PUBLIC ACID, DAME, LONG KNIFE and a slew of others (both current and long gone) that I'll fill ya in on at a later date. In the meantime, please stay safe and look out for one another in the midst of this pandemic!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
The Beach Impediment Records Fall 2019 releases are finally available to the public! In addition to those absolute gems being ripe for taking after a slew of delays (go fucking figure), a few out of print titles (some for only a little while and others for a long while) are available once again as well! There's also some information that will make the more fashionable among you absolutely giddy! Read on for more on all that:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<u></u><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><u><strong>HAIRCUT - SENSATION EP</strong></u></u></div>
<u>
</u><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
After turning some heads with their debut 7" entitled "SHUTTING DOWN" released on the high quality Feel It Records label back in 2017, HAIRCUT have finally unleashed their follow up with the "SENSATION" EP. Four tracks of pummeling hardcore punk that retain the velocity and ferocity of the band's previous output whilst adding a decisive dose of meat and potatoes to the sonic formula, all the while Juliana belts out lyrics in both Spanish and English at a feverish pace. As we collectively sit on the cusp of entering the 2020's within a matter of months, HAIRCUT is a wonderful reminder that when it's done with equal parts precision and passion there's just no room for the gimmicks, posturing or other eye roll inducing baggage that tends to afflict the genre of hardcore punk, be it regionally or internationally. Such purity can stand on its own two feet and present itself loud and proud which is something that all enthusiasts can take great delight in as this genre cascades into yet another decade of continuation. Each record comes in a glue pocket sleeve with art and layout done by Colombian punk artist Juan Sebastian Rosillo. Limited to 500 copies.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are 100 copies on BLUE VINYL for mailorder while they last!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<u></u><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><u><strong>LARMA - S/T LP</strong></u></u></div>
<u>
</u><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Can one ever have enough quality mangel in their life?! Beach Impediment is proud to not only be handling the North American pressing of this bombastic debut by Sweden's LARMA but to also answer that lingering question with a resounding "HELL NO!" Considering the folks in this band have been responsible for a large portion of the top tier raging hardcore punk to come from the greater Scandinavian area via their previous endeavors in the likes of SKITKIDS, HERÄTYS, INFERNÖH and loads more over the past couple decades, it's not even remotely surprising that the contents of this 12" are a remarkable regional tutorial sorts worked into a proper ass kicking from start to finish. Eleven tracks of kang punk hysteria that is not for the faint of heart. Each record comes in a UV gloss jacket featuring cover art by the band's own Jonas Pungen. Limited to 500 copies.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<u></u><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><u><strong>LOOSE NUKES - BEHIND THE SCREEN EP</strong></u></u></div>
<u>
</u><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
United by the confounds of the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, LOOSE NUKES is truly an East meets West hardcore punk detonation of immense proportions. Consisting of one half of Pittsburgh's late great BLOOD PRESSURE along with other residents of the Quaker State that have served time in the likes of SICKOIDS, DARK THOUGHTS and countless other Philadelphian greats over the years, the pedigree is undeniable and, as one would guess, the tunes themselves are high caliber in both their composition and raw delivery. "BEHIND THE SCREEN" is eight tracks of smoldering hardcore punk in just over nine and a half minutes. If you're looking for some kinda new spin on the olde wheel, it might be best to just keep walking / scrolling / etc. But if ya got a hankerin' for well executed hardcore punk, well shit bud, you've arrived! Each record comes in a double sided fold out sleeve a la the Cheetah Chrome Motherfuckers - Furious Party 7" adorned with art by resident Nukes crooner Jim Shomo. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are 100 copies on PURPLE VINYL for mailorder while they last!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

Plus, I recently brought back the classic "BURN OUT SURFER DUDE" T-Shirt design for one more run in that format AND did some tote bags as well. Quantities on those are a bit depleted from the initial rush on them a couple weeks back so if ya want one of em ya might wanna get on that soon. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There ain't too much else to report... got a few projects in the works that may or may not see light by the end of this year. If so you'll be hearing from me before the ROARIN' 20's (Part Two) go into effect but if not, I'll see y'all in the next decade with more hardcore punk junk!!! </div>

Hey all! The Beach Impediment Spring 2019 releases are finally available! PLEASE NOTE - these new titles will start shipping the first week of May, thanks in advance for your patience and understanding! Let's just get right down to it, ya dig?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<strong><u>CONDOR - SINGLES 2017-2018 12"</u></strong></div>
<br />
Maxime Smadja has held many positions of note in some of the more exceptional French underground groups of recent years. For instance, you might know him as the beastly beat keeper behind Paris Oi band RIXE or the song writer behind the ever so catchy BOSS but for those who have yet to be initiated this is CONDOR - a one man band and love letter of sorts to his homeland and the particular strain of Oi / Punk music that it started yielding well over three decades ago. Previously only available on a pair of scarcely pressed and circulated cassingles, Beach Impediment Records is ecstatic to further the circulation of these six songs on the vinyl format. Channeling the brightest moments of the classic compilation series "Chaos En France" (and really, anything else on the Chaos Productions label that's worth a damn) combined with an execution so precise and well crafted that it carries that undeniable trademark of Smadja's many other contributions to the genre of punk over his time in it due to it's attention to detail and adoration of quality. And as a special bonus this slab features an additional track that is exclusive to this release - a cover of "Vengeance" by the 80's Parisian Oi outfit D.E.M. Each record comes in a jacket featuring the stellar art of Beau Richie depicting what I'd assume must be a typical day in one of the abundant alleyways that weave through out the City of Lights, plus a killer 18" x 24" fold out poster insert. Be sure to catch CONDOR on tour this spring through out North America!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There are 300 copies on CREAM VINYL for mailorder while they last!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<u><strong>GAME - NO ONE WINS LP</strong></u><br />
<br />
At long last, the follow up to 2017’s "Who Will Play?" flexi has materialised in the form of "No One Wins" on the LP format. With influences and membership that span the world of hardcore punk, both stylistically and geographically, this platter sports 10 tracks of pummeling hardcore punk that incorporates metallic elements drawn from the near and far reaches of mid 80s international hardcore and thrash to the simplicity of domestic HC pestilence. Blended with a great finesse that is both tasteful and potent - which seems to be a rare feat to attain this day and age - and buttressed by a top notch mastering job by the great Arthur Rizk (SHIT "What Do You Stand For," Impalers "Cellar Dweller”, Power Trip ‘Nightmare Logic’) which only feeds the fire that is the base of these already enormous tracks. GAME is the conduit. Relatively new but sending sickening sounds into the New Wave of British Hardcore collective, decimating any and all willing to be destroyed.<br />
<br />
Seek further advice on Game's sound via the precedent set by Gastunk, Celtic Frost, Sacrilege, Death Side, and the Execute. Members of Arms Race, Fucked Up, Career Suicide, Shrapnel, Violent Reaction and Subdued.<br />
<br />
Each record comes in a UV gloss jacket adorned with a stunning collaborative art effort by Nicky Rat, Jack Sabbat and Taketo Ikegami along with a risograph insert. <br />
<br />
There are 100 copies on WHITE VINYL available for mailorder while they last!<br />
<br />
<i>UPDATE 4/22/19: WHITE VINYL is SOLD OUT!</i><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<u><strong>WITCHTRIAL - S/T 12"</strong></u><br />
<br />
With the passage of two years since the release of their demo, along with a hefty helping of gigs under their belts, Mid-Atlantic powerhouse WITCHTRIAL have at long last bestowed upon us all the absolutely thunderous offering that is their self titled 12" EP. Drawing equally on the cult sounds of mid-80's international hardcore punk and the early days of underground extreme metal, WITCHTRIAL has made it their duty to remind us that there'd be no HELLHAMMER without DISCHARGE and no BATHORY without GBH. This slab features 6 brand new cuts of the driving metalpunk madness that many a maniac has embraced since the group's inception. Recorded by Carson Cox and mastered by Will Killingsworth ensuring a sonic assault that is unmatched. Each record comes in a jacket emblazoned with a dazzling layout designed by Reuben Storey.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Hello and a happy new year to all of ya! Boy howdy am I just TICKLED PINK to start 2019 off with both of these slabs that are just the beginning of what is looking like a busy year. Let's get right to it:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<strong></strong><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong><strong><u>VAASKA - INOCENTES CONDENADOS EP</u></strong></strong></div>
<strong>
</strong><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
"A lot has happened in the three years since the "FUTURO PRIMITIVO" EP dropped in correlation with the band's 2016 Japanese tour and now VAASKA returns to a world that's worse off with what could possibly be their final statement in the form of the "INOCENTES CONDENADOS" EP. Six tracks of smoldering D-Beat based hardcore punk which could arguably be the greatest recording session of their 10+ years as a band. Mastered by Kenko at Communichaos Media Clay Station in Sweden AKA exactly who you want to be twisting the knobs on a project like this. Each record comes in a Discharge style pocket sleeve with collaborative effort imagery by Todo Destruido, Jack Blackmon and Ryan Fromdeland."</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are 100 copies on OPAQUE YELLOW VINYL for mailorder while they last.<br />
<br />
UPDATE: 1/22/2019 - VAASKA color vinyl is SOLD OUT!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<strong></strong><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong><strong><u>MURO - ATAQUE HARDCORE PUNK 12"</u></strong></strong></div>
<strong>
</strong><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
"What is there that can be said about Bogota, Colombia's MURO that can even remotely rationalize the true force of nature that they are both in the recorded setting and as a live entity? The initiated know the deal but for those that don't... welcome! Originally released by the outstanding Nordic based Byllepest Distro label in 2017, the "ATAQUE HARDCORE PUNK" 12" was repressed for the band's explosive appearance at NOT DEAD YET 2018 and the Canadian tour that followed shortly thereafter. Channeling the ferocity of other regional greats while contributing a take on the genre that is undeniably all their own, Beach Impediment Records is honored to aid in the North American advancement of this modern day South American hardcore punk classic. Each record comes in a DIY style paper sleeve containing two massive poster inserts, all of which was screen printed and assembled by the members of MURO at their Casa Rat Trap Collective in Bogota. Keep an ear to the ground as there will be more to come from this outstanding group in 2019."</div>

And we're back! It's been a busy year with not much to show for it... until now! As luck would have it all of these projects pretty much came together at the same time, thus they will be released as such! B.I.R. unloads 4 more slabs of all kindsa types today with more to follow next month! But for now, let's focus on the heavy hitters in question - READ ON!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>BLOOD PRESSURE - SURROUNDED 12"</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Say there was a Keystone State Wrestling Alliance of sorts that consisted of a plethora of regional hardcore punk bands instead of a gaggle of scantily clad lowbrow beefcakes in spandex... Pittsburgh's own BLOOD PRESSURE would surely be the undisputed heavyweight champions of this fictitious league that I envisioned whilst rocking a slash in that alley across from the Rock Room. Yeah, I was pretty hammered BUT who would object to such a notion though?! Hell, the proof is right here in the pudding buddy roe, which in this case is essentially just a bunch of pureed proteins and starches - AKA precisely the recipe of audibility that these yinzers have mastered and carried out time and time again. Two years away from the studio clearly didn't turn them into slouches by any stretch of the imagination. "SURROUNDED" supplies an undeserving world with ten tracks of seething and hate filled hardcore punk that is bound to tickle the fancy of any and all "real ones" or whatever. Cover art by the esteemed and ever so handsome Nicky Rat. BPHCFU b/w "WHAT YOU GONNA DO WHEN MOLE-A-MANIA RUNS WILD ON YOU?" </div>

<b><u>VANITY - EVENING RECEPTION LP</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
"A lost episode of Fawlty Towers set in the present day astride a shoddy sofa in a den in Brooklyn: Instead of not “mentioning the war” the challenge is to swim through this LP without uttering or even entertaining the tiniest sniff of dearest Nanker Phelge. This proves far more rewarding than throwing a knee-jerk ticker tape parade for the open-tuned greyzone murk of Guitar-Centre blues musicians everywhere and frankly, that would be a lazy disservice to what you're about to hear. Rising up instead, we have the grandiose and pampositical return of the perfectly named, Vanity. Yes that’s a compliment, no it's not a real word. Energetic punk consommé indebted to rock and roll but coming across less like the deliberate broken chains of Vans slip ons and Target 501s swapped for sequins, strides, and scarves - but more like an effort forged in Billy Zoom’s living room on Warren Zevon’s gear as played by the Saints’ roadies in a bar that serves really, really, really cold beer. Coincidentally, I would endorse that as a suggested serving. Take a long hard look in the mirror, slyly lit so your cheekbones pop, and preen yourself ’til your skin peels off."</div>

Each record comes in a matte jacket adorned with stunning art by the remarkable Lauren O'Connor.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>L'AMOUR - LOOK TO THE ARTIST: 1978-1981 12"</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
When admiring a piece of cultural and historical significance it's not uncommon for the admirer to question where it all began; to trace it all back to the epicenter of the event that set it all into motion. If RICKY AND THE WHITE BOYS were the punk rock meteor that crashed into an unsuspecting Richmond, VA in the age of disco then L'AMOUR was the shock wave immediately following that fabled and chaotic impact event, forever altering the cultural landscape within the city limits. Formed in 1978 by a couple of disciples of rock and roll who'd had their lives altered by said genre / belief system in the years prior to that, Tom Applegate and Dave Stover recruited other like minded rockers to aid them in their aural conquest over the next few years that followed in the group's all too brief existence. In that time they left behind a trail of broken bottles, perhaps a few broken hearts, and definitely some perturbed club owners up and down the east coast. But most importantly, the fellas in L'AMOUR left us with documentation of their rock in the form of some long forgotten tapes. Nearly 40 years after the band entered the studio to lay down tracks for their first and only 7" single on the band's own legendary ZERO DEGREE RECORDS (a label that became synonymous with the release and widespread circulation of the early Richmond punk scene that was soon to follow), Beach Impediment is proud to not only re-release those classic songs but also bring to light a slew of previously unreleased tracks, alternate demo takes, and even a rare later era soundboard recording of the band live in their hometown that exhibits a grip of originals that sadly never made it into the studio before the band's untimely demise the day before Reagan took office. Lovingly transferred from the original 1/4" reels (some of which were a wee bit moldy after years of being M.I.A. but were thankfully salvaged via professional cleaning) along with a new mastering job, these tracks hit harder than ever! Members would go on to play in other classic and ground breaking Richmond bands like BEEX and THE PREVARICATORS. Each record comes with a fold out 12" x 24" double sided insert chock full of archival photos and flyers plus liner notes from Tommy the Rock himself that give the reader a glimpse into the counter-cultural explosion of the late 70's / early 80's in the land once known as Dixie. Electric guitars were (and still are) their only desire. Limited to 500 copies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
There are 100 copies on YELLOW VINYL for mailorder while they last! This edition also comes with a reprint of Tom and Dave's 1978 zine RICHMOND NEW RAVER scanned from the original master copy and chock full of reviews, rants, opinions, Patti Smith worship, and previously unpublished photos of THE RAMONES, THE CRAMPS, THE RUNAWAYS, and some local groups & rockers to boot PLUS reprints of three classic L'AMOUR flyers on thick card stock paper!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>STIGMATISM - S/T EP</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Ya know that Big City Records compilation "Montreal New York Connection 85 Live" with all the wild looking cartoon punks on it? STIGMATISM is the sonic equivalent of that big fella on the cover with the mohawk rocking boots and braces whilst letting off and undoubtedly blood curdling howl doing key bumps of meth with that flag toting skinhead from the back of the "United Blood" EP in a real seedy alleyway at like, 3:41 AM on a Tuesday. STIGMATISM is an infatuation with and/or an astute observation of the more, dare I say, "early man" aspects of that first wave of NYHC. Featuring an ex OMEGA and a native New Yorker united in their love of this particular style of hardcore punk, this demo recording has been slapped onto some slabs of plastic that can be played loud on a phonograph or utilized as a level plane for those aforementioned servings of meth. Each record comes in a glue pocket sleeve adorned with a design by the illustrious Spoiler. Limited to 500 copies.</div>

<br />
Greetings! Welcome to the first Beach Impediment Records new release post of 2018. I got a couple hot platters on deck for ya along with a good glimpse of the rest of the year in B.I.R. happenings so let's just get right to it:<br />
<br />
<u><b>FETISH - S/T EP</b></u><br />
<br />
"While one should hesitate to use the term "super group," it would be kinda hard to not consider utilizing some kind of label in that vein in regards to Portland, Oregon's FETISH. For starters if we're gonna talk about genre altering personnel within the ranks of this group, you'd have to note that this recording showcases the first time that Thee Slayer Hippy and Vegetable have come together to create ugly hardcore punk music since their stint together in the "War All The Time" era of the legendary Kings of Punk POISON IDEA three decades ago. It also doesn't hurt that 3/4 of PDX punk heroes LONG KNIFE (Colin Jarrell, Scott Goto, and Chris Reid respectively) are in the mix as well along with later era PI guitarist Brandon Bentley. Their debut track "TAKE THE KNIFE" showcases the sheer power of this group and is just a sign of what is to come with the band's full length record that will hopefully see the light of day later this year. On the flip side, a stirring rendition of LOVE's classic track "A House Is Not A Motel" closes this one out leaving us hungry for more. Each record comes in a glue pocket sleeve featuring cover art by the talented Joe B."<br />
<br />
There are 200 copies on OPAQUE RED VINYL for mailorder while they last.<br />
<br />
UPDATE: Color vinyl is SOLD OUT from Beach Impediment but the band will have plenty of copies at their soon to be announced record release show in Portland.<br />
<br />
<u><b>WITCHTRIAL - DEMO 2017 12"</b></u><br />
<br />
Rather than let it remain exclusive to a small run on the cassette tape format, Beach Impediment is proud to give the 2017 Demo by the Mid-Atlantic metalpunk power house WITCHTRIAL a proper go on vinyl. While the members of this band are known to many for creating a slew of well done hardcore punk outfits in recent years, their venture into this particular realm of the heavier and far more grisly has proven to be a worthy one as evidenced through these four tracks. Featuring a new mastering job by Will Killingsworth (the ferocity of which is truly magnified on a 45 RPM 12") along with striking cover art by Alex Heir and logo by Guilherme Bacellar. Limited to a one time pressing of 500 copies on black vinyl.<br />
<br />
As always, these releases can be purchased from the <a data-cke-saved-href="http://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" href="http://beachimpedimentrecords.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">Beach Impediment Records Big Cartel</a> and streamed / downloaded over at the <a data-cke-saved-href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" href="https://beachimpedimentrecords.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Beach Impediment Records Bandcamp page</a>.<br />
<br />
The following distros / stores should have copies of these records soon, if not already: SORRY STATE RECORDS, GRAVE MISTAKE RECORDS, FEEL IT RECORDS, PUNKDISTRO (Germany), BLITZ RECORDS (UK), PHOBIA RECORDS (CZ), PUNK AND DESTROY (Japan), RECORD BOY (Japan), HELL'S HEADBANGERS, JOINT CUSTODY, REPO MAN RECORDS (Denmark), DISK UNION (Japan), VINYL CONFLICT, MATERIAL WORLD, DESOLATE RECORDS, EXTREME NOISE, NECKCHOP RECORDS, DISTORT REALITY RECORDS, and a few more that are in the works.<br />
<br />
And as always, both releases are available for wholesale from EBULLITION and REVHQ.<br />
<br />
In other news, this past January we had the inaugural release on our cassette tape imprint label ANONYMOUS CAVE with the BATTERING RAM - LET ME FIGHT WHERE I LAY... CS. Most of the copies have sold but I have a few more up in the webstore for those interested. Here's the information on that one:<br />
<br />
"For the inaugural release on the Beach Impediment cassette only imprint label ANONYMOUS CAVE, we're proud to bring you the BATTERING RAM - LET ME FIGHT WHERE I LAY... CS. This group is a real tour de force or some shit, featuring the Brothers Radigan aka Biff and Big Ev coming together to share three heavy metal / hard street rock originals that (along with the mystical powers of narcotics) might very well make the listener think they're in a seedy London alley circa 1982, sprawled out on top of a pile of rubbish, suckling sour milk directly from the teat of one of them fabled Filth Hounds of Hades; along with a ZZ Top cover to close it all out and send ya the fuck off. Each tape comes enclosed within a black and white card stock J-card adorned with art by Andy Fletcher. Limited to 200 copies."<br />
<br />
You can also stream / download the cassette over at the <a data-cke-saved-href="https://anonymouscavecassettes.bandcamp.com/releases" href="https://anonymouscavecassettes.bandcamp.com/releases" target="_blank">Anonymous Cave Bandcamp page</a>. And on the off chance that any of you will be seeing BATTLE RUINS in Germany this coming weekend, I'd imagine Brendan will have copies of the tape for sale at that gig as well.<br />
<br />
It's also worth noting that both the EEL - NIGHT PARADE OF 100 DEMONS LP and LONG KNIFE - SEWERS OF BABYLON EP have been repressed and are once again available!<br />

Well, well, well... I'm excited to be closing the year out with this one - the magnum opus by some of Pittsburgh's finest miscreants, beer drinkers, and hell raisers AKA James Rose and his EEL boys. More on that below along with some tour dates coming up soon in the northeast, a fair amount of which are with the legendary VARUKERS. So yeah:</div>
<br />
"Polish Hell, Pittsburgh's EEL have once again crawled out of a dimly lit basement a few blocks from Gooski's to offer up their most forceful effort yet. "NIGHT PARADE OF 100 DEMONS" is the culmination of a band spending half of a decade perfecting their particular interpretation of the microcosm that is punk. The end result is eleven tracks of violent and destructive commotion that seems to mirror the world that has always surrounded us but is becoming far more apparent as of late. Once again, these freaks of nature achieve their prime objective - bombarding the listener with a relentless barrage of their rust belt style noise drenched hardcore punk... an all out aural assault. Each record features stunning black and white cover art by the legendary Japanese hardcore artist Kazuhiro Imai accompanied by a stellar piece on the reverse by Luke Kislak."<br />
