Lie Cycle - Demo

Lie Cycle are a sludgy crust hardcore band from Perth, Western Australia. Another great band from my local scene and this is their first demo tape. Limited to only 20 copies so if you want one I'd go grab one of the last copies from Coffin Cut Records before it sells out.

Warthreat - Demo

Warthreat are from Perth, Western Australia and play noisy as hell d-beat with lots of echo on the vocals.  This is their demo tape, self released and limited to 50 copies though I've heard a second pressing is on the way. Sounds like a total wall of noise but the more I play it the clearer it becomes. Looking forward to hearing what comes next from these guys. There's a hand full available from No Patience or you can wait for the second press to get released.

Iron Lung - Exposed

I was lucky enough to see Iron Lung play last night in Perth which is where I picked up two versions of this tour 7". It's a one sided record with three songs which includes a Sex Vid cover. The red vinyl is the second press and the glow in the dark vinyl is the third press.

Sonic Youth - Dead Moon Rising

Recent re-master of Sonic Youth's classic album from 1985. I think this was the first album I bought of theirs, not when it first came out mind you, I'm old but not that old. The collaboration with Lydia Lunch on the last track "Death Valley 69" is easily one of my favorite Sonic Youth songs. This was done by ORG Music, the same folks that did the Nirvana vinyl reissues. They make some really amazing sounding vinyl, when you hear an audiophile pressing like this it's such a difference to some of the cheap paper thin vinyl some labels press. The orange 180 gram vinyl is limited to 200 copies. You can get it from Insound or the Sonic Youth webstore.

Low Threat Profile - Product #2

I've had this for awhile but it's been buried under stacks of other records and I'd almost forgotten about it. No doubt everyone's heard all about this band by now, a Power Violence super group with members of Infest, No Comment and Lack Of Interest. This is their second release aptly titled Product #2. Recorded in 2000 with vocals laid down 10 years later. The white vinyl was limited to 100 copies for mail order from Deep Six Records but there's still some black copies available.

Nerveskade / D-Clone - Split 7"

Here's a split 7" made for the Nerveskade / D-Clone tour of Japan by Hardcore Survives. Fucking amazing 7" of noisy as shit D-Beat hardcore, both sides rule! Looks like some were sent out to distros with this pink cover and there's a different tour only cover on red vinyl.

This is what the tour 7" and cassette look like. Someone in Japan please grab me these and I'll definitely reward you.

Burial Hex / Zola Jesus - Split

This 12" has been out for awhile but I just snagged a copy before it sold out. Put out by Aurora Borealis, this was the second press on clear vinyl limited to 350 copies. I bought it for the Zola Jesus side but ended up really enjoying Burial Hex's creepy horror electronics. I'd love to hear more but with 46 releases out so far, it's hard to know where to start. With my compulsive collecting habits that could be a really bad idea. The Zola Jesus side is one 19 minute long song titled Julius & Ethel. It's pretty different to her last few releases, with this being more experimental electronics. Very dark stuff and Nika's distinctive vocals sound like a wailing ghost.
