Windhand: Announce New Album 'Soma' - Out September 17 on Relapse Records
Confirmed for Roadburn Festival 2014 Listen to the 'Soma' album trailer here!
After surging the DIY circuit with months of touring, their own IPA, a critically acclaimed self-titled release last year and a split with label-mates Cough this year, Windhand have confirmed they’ll be taking the main stage at next year’s Roadburn Festival in Tilburg, The Netherlands on Saturday, April 12. Soma is nothing short of transcendent. This record is for more than just doom-metal fanatics—this is an epic record for all fans of guitar driven rock and roll.
On Soma, Windhand successfully make syrupy slow, downtuned doom hooky and anthemic. Propelled by singer Dorthia Cottrell’s beautifully haunting bellow, Windhand’s dual guitar attack sounds like the glorious misfit offspring of Black Sabbath and Nirvana. An easy candidate for heavy music record of the year. The album was recorded and mixed by the band’s own Garrett Morris at The Darkroom and mastered by James Plotkin in their hometown. Take a sneak peak of the album here.
Formed in 2009, Windhand (Asechiah Bogdan - Guitar, Parker Chandler - Bass, Dorthia Cottrell - Vocals, Garrett Morris - Guitar, and Ryan Wolfe - Drums) play what has been described as a tinnitus inducing mix of eerie psychedelia and haunting ambient doom. 2012 saw the release of their self-titled, debut LP via Forcefield Records and was critically acclaimed by Decibel, Pitchfork, CVLT Nation and many more.
Vinyl is available in Blue (Limited to 300), Deep Purple (Limited To 100), Blood Red (Translucent) (Limited to 1,000) Pre-Order HERE

Limited edition RED import vinyl with a sugar scratch-n-sniff cover. Only 245 copies made. Includes a copy of the CD.
Described by Sweden's national tabloid Expressen as "a perfect union of Front 242 and the B-52's," electronic punk group Cat Rapes Dog is back with their first album since 1999. The new album, dubbed Life Was Sweet, is the seventh Cat Rapes Dog studio release and first on label Artoffact. The band gets right to the point and stays true to their punk rock roots, rarely pausing and skipping all filler. The album clocks in at a "fits on vinyl" 35 minutes, but in this short space Cat Rapes Dog will tell you to go out and vote, give you a lesson in religion, and baffle you with a sense of humour all their own. Manic electronic synth lines meet over-the-top male and female vocals on nine tracks of pure DIY weird.

‘From Beer to Eternity’ is the 13th album of the US Industrial-legends! Their previous studio album ‘Relapse’ entered the charts all around the world. The new album will be released in 5 formats: standard CD, Digipak (+2 bonus tracks), 2 different Gatefold 2LPs (+ 1 bonus-track) & limited Fanbox! The Gatefold 2LPs (black & clear) will be limited to 500 units each, while the Fanbox is limited to 1000 worldwide and comes as a mini coffin including: the digipak, a rosary, prayer cards, prayer candle (with Ministry branding).
The CD was written last December (2012) prior to the death of the band's guitarist, Mike Scaccia. "This was one of the most creative MINISTRY tracking sessions ever. The band was on fire! We were having fun, we were coming up with great ideas and experimenting with everything we've ever wanted to do, from STONES-y blues to dub and, of course, heavy guitar-based rock. It was too easy. No fighting, no problems. Nothing goes that well without the floor eventually falling out." - MINISTRY mainman Al Jourgensen says. "It was the most emotionally difficult project I've ever done, but it was the most rewarding," Jourgensen continues. "Mikey was amazed with the songs when he was working on them, and I know he's looking down at us now and he's totally stoked with what we came up with."

When you count out the original Blues men from the United States, the Paul Butterfield Blues Band is arguably the finest example of raw Blues essence. With white harmonica player Butterfield at the center, the racially integrated group started as one of the first authentic and genuine Blues combos. They were the real deal – and paved the way for the upcoming Blues music movement in a in time when hit charts were still separated by colour of skin.
Their first and eponymous album from 1965 contains a mix of electric Chicago style Blues and Rock & Roll: raw, brazen and powerful, beautifully weaved together by Butterfields harmonica and scorching vocals. And more to their credit: the Paul Butterfield Blues Band single-handedly helped introduce more white listeners to the band's influences, such as Muddy Waters and B.B. King. On 180 gram audiophile vinyl.
Metal Church - Human Factor
Metal Church's 4th album is often cited as their best. Breaking through in the-mid eighties within a blossoming Thrash Metal scene, these guys from Seattle stuck to their guns while other bands were polishing their sound to meet popular demand. The Human Factor (1991) excels in chugging riffs, melodic breaks, pulsing beats and furious vocals – a true Thrash classic. The lyrics stand out in their substance: singer Mike Howe tackles political and social subjects on "Date with Poverty," "Flee From Reality" and "The Final Word." On 180 gram audiophile vinyl
