Apologies for the lack of updates but the abundance google accounts and general tunnel vision dominate and confuse my state of being at all times.

Defeatist "Tyranny Of Decay" LPs have been out for a while now with orders shipping promptly. The last Defeatist show was in Brooklyn on December 17 2011. You can see pics along with snappy anonymous comments here:

Gross, right?

Sayyadina review in Decibel this month. Will post a pic this week. Still not sure what it will take to get a review for the D.E.R. record.

D.E.R. has a bunch of shit going on, new recordings, etc. Really the best grind band that no one has heard. Check them out here:

Where did the last two months go? Straight to my GI tract if these stomach pains are anything to go by...

Sayyadina's "Mourning The Unknown" LP is at the plant and should be ready to melt turntables imminently. Just got the test pressings and they sound sweet. I haven't given this record my undivided attention in a while and I think I forgot how great it is. Unrelenting speed and fury matched by the catchiest riffs. Possibly my favorite grindcore record ever. The three new tracks fit right into the mix. The only real change on this is that it's not a gatefold package to try to keep cost down on this thing.

UP NEXT! D.E.R. "Quando a Esperança Desaba" LP!! The artwork has been approved so this should go to press at the end of May.

Sayyadina will be in the U.S. for a few East Coast dates between Auditory Assault Fest and Maryland Death Fest.

In anticipation of Mourning The Unknown, I'm posting the interview Sayyadina did for Short Fast + Loud a couple issues back. This issue is still available at Six Weeks Records pick it up! Thanks to Punks Is Hippies for the scans...

No hope for the mutants.

Who makes records anymore? Really dumb people apparently. Really dumb people who have no interest in programming a website. Vinyl is the way to go...

First one out of the gate will be the long overdue LP version of Sayyadina's "Mourning The Unknown". Gatefold LP with three extra tracks from the same recording session. www.sayyadina.com

Not soon after that will see the vinyl version of D.E.R.'s "Quando a Esperança Desaba". Unrelenting Brazillian grindcore! www.myspace.com/derpunk

These should go into production sooner than later and then it's in the hands of the pressing gods. Fickle hands they may be...
