Victim of Circumstance EP available now

The debut EP from Buffalo's V.O.C. is available now on the bandcamp and the webstore. Not much to say other than these dudes fucking rage. Saw them in Buffalo a couple years ago before Matt joined on bass and was taken by surprise. Inventive guitar riffs and killer drum work and now add that crushing low end that epitomizes the WT sound. Not looking to reinvent the wheel or anything but there's enough creativity and catchy riffs to keep things refreshing. The dudes just get it.

Black and white foldout sleeve with insert, comes on random colored vinyl that looks fantastic. No two are alike!

Promo barf: "The debut EP from Buffalo's grinding maniacs, Victim of Circumstance. Featuring members of Water Torture, this foursome screech and blast their way through 11 short assaults of grinding hardcore."

Water Torture "Pillbox" LPs in stock - Preorders all shipped

Water Torture "Pillbox" LPs are finally in stock. All the preorders were shipped out last week in the order in which they were received, thanks for your patience. Wholesale orders and trades are heading out currently so keep an eye out at your usual distros.

Next up is the debut EP from Buffalo's Victim of Circumstance. Blazing hc/grind from members of, you guessed it, Water Torture. Test presses have been approved and the packaging is already in hand so this should be out in a couple weeks.

Facada LPs have shipped from Europe and should be in stock very soon. So much still to come in the next few months from Nerve Altar including the second PSUDOKU LP! A co-release with 625 & Crucificados, this new outing from the mysterious mind behind Parlamentarisk Sodomi, Brutal Blues and BSR eschews the grindcore elements form his sound almost completely. A true prog deep space exploration conjuring the likes of King Crimson, Naked City and Magma.

Also there are copies of the new Haggatha/Moloch Split EP in the distro. Two of the best on one little beastly slab.

Water Torture debut LP "Pillbox" now avail for download and preorder

Water Torture's first full length is now available to download. Vinyl is running a little late but should be in stock by mid-August. Preorders are available but not imperative.

Water Torture's long awaited first LP crushes all those foolish enough to stand in it's path. Low end grinding despair and cavernous noise collage fuse together in the Rustbelt collective's unique twist on grindviolence. Branching out from their previous work, down tempo sludge is juxtaposed with intense blasting and solemn interludes of mechanical noise. Feedback drenched hymns of self loathing in a desolate, futile existence.
