Internal Rot/Mutilated Cop Split EP Available Now

Melbourne’s murderous monarchs of global grindcore face off with noise monger newcomers from the Pacific Northwest in a battle to their twisted mangled death.

Internal Rot have rightfully roosted on the throne of the worldwide scene for the last decade or more, gaining strength after strength on each release. Showcasing their relentless speed and unbridled aggression. Four new tracks and keeping it in the NA family, two Widespread Bloodshed covers.

While this might be Mutilated Cop’s first official release, as a side project from members of Seattle’s Caustic Wound, they should be familiar to the real heads. 24 crusty micro blasts of old school ENT-styled noisecore excoriating authority systems in a blinding rage. D̶e̶f̶u̶n̶d̶ Decapitate the police.

Dephosphorus "Planetoktonos" LP Now Available

 DEPHOSPHORUS aims to expand listeners’ consciousness, fostering a vision of a sustainable future where humanity not only survives but thrives in harmony with its biosphere - and even with AI. Much like the anarchic utopia imagined by Iain M. Banks in The Culture books, this future is one where technology and humanity coexist symbiotically.

Their latest effort, “Planetoktonos”, is the band’s fifth full-length release, a ferocious collection of 9 cosmic, menacing tracks that pay tribute to the energy and dynamics of trailblazing acts such as Anodyne, Nasum, Playing Enemy, Breach, Knut, Leviathan and Bolt Thrower.
“Planetoktonos” - a Greek word coined by the band, roughly translating to “Planetkiller”- brings DEPHOSPHORUS closer than ever to their ideal sound. Mindfully forged in the positive atmosphere of Ignite Studio, mastered by sonic guru James Plotkin (OLD, Khanate), ensuring every detail hits with impact.

As always, DEPHOSPHORUS explores science fiction and cosmology through an existential and political lens in both the lyrics and aesthetics of “Planetoktonos”. Several tracks, along with the album’s title and artwork - designed by Graphic No Jutsu - are inspired by The Expanse novel series by James S.A. Corey, a near-future universe where humanity has colonized the Solar System but faces the unknown consequences of encountering alien intelligence and technology. Other tracks delve into reflections on cosmologic and existential themes, spanning Dyson spheres and the persistence of life to the toxicity of defeatism and the looming threats of rogue AI or superintelligence.
“Planetoktonos” delivers a boundary-pushing sonic journey, sparking the imagination and inviting listeners to explore new dimensions of thought and sound.

PSUDOKU "Psudoktrination" LP Now Available

Not even the most advanced recommender systems will ever accurately predict your preference for this integration between sparse, echo effected grunts and metallic clanks dominated by fast space grind drumming and complex electric strings. Space junk special effects pollute the atmosphere while the occasional wah pedal magnifies the radioactivity of the barre chords, in order to psudoktrinate all audience members that are capable of staying receptive for several seconds at a time.
