California's pioneers CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER team up with FOAD Records for an incredible vinyl treasure finally giving the right treatment to their legendary "Life in grave" Demotape 1985 and to an accurate selection of ultra-rare/unreleased recordings ranging from their 3 piece line-up era (1985) to the "Convicted"/"Money talks" days. This release has been in the works for months until we found the top sounding masters in existence and restored them for the best possible audiophile result when pressed on vinyl. Side A includes the band's Demotape "Life in grave" adding 2 rehearsal tracks from the same period, one is a speeded up HELLHAMMER cover and one is a super-raw version of VENOM's "Welcome to hell". Side B is all focused on the "Convicted"/"Money talks" 4 piece line-up and includes various live recordings and a good sounding rehearsal 1986. All songs here are performed even faster than how they were played on their classic albums. This is how Goodbadmusic.com introduced "Life in grave": "1985 was a good year for music ? bands like SLAUGHTER, NYC MAYHEM, VOOR, WEHRMACHT, HIRAX, DEATH, REPULSION and CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER amazed me and they still blow me away today! Especially this one here with its youthful urgency, its unpolished power and enthusiasm. And stilistically, this was very refreshing. Could you say whether this is more metal or more HC? Does it matter to you?" Being this one of the most important FOAD releases to date, we also dedicated the right passion to the packaging: a stunning gatefold sleeve and most of all a 36 PAGE zine/booklet stuffed with rare photos, interviews, zine excerpts and gig flyers. If you're into any kind of fast music be it Thrash, Hardcore, Grind or Power Violence, you are MAD if you miss this!!!!

Assembled in Joshua Tree, Palm Springs and Yucca Valley, the album reflects all the emotion and wide open sounds appreciated by those who love collections recorded in the desert.

Grind Inc. – Sudden State Of Hate - CD-Digi

GRIND INC. started out as a side project of HATE FACTOR and NIGHT IN GALES members in 2001. The point was to make the most brutal music possible without neglecting groove and having shitloads of fun. Apparently, that worked out just fine and so the project became a real band after some time.

"SUDDEN STATE OF HATE" is GRIND INC.'s third album and was released through Germany's TWILIGHT VERTRIEB in 2008.

Repent – Condemned To Fail - CD

If you had to name one German band among the first of the second wave of thrash in the wake of the 1980s pioneers, it would be Repent. Forming in 1992 when this type of metal was not a trend anymore meant that you had to be totally convinced by what you wanted to do, sticking to it without compromise regardless of ephemeral fads.

"Condemned To Fail" is Repent's 4th album, released in 2019 by High Roller Records.

(EchO) ‎– Below The Cover Of Clouds - CD

The third album by the Italian band continues exploring dark fantasies of the talented musicians.
Demonstrating significant progress and development, (EchO) created a mosaic canvas on a melodic death doom metal base filled with outstanding melodies and intersections with different styles, with a touch of psychedelia and a perfect combination of fragility and brutality (both in music and vocals).
Carefully crafted arrangements ensured by the coherence and skills of the musicians are the unique feature of (EchO), that was perfected by Greg Chandler (Esoteric), who performed mixing and mastering in Priory Recording Studio.
