Pollution - Nasty DNA LP

Pollution are a raw hardcore outfit featuring members of Unearthly Trance. Their debut album entitled "Nasty.DNA" was previously only available on CDr format, but Feast Of Tentacles stepped up and released this ugly sucker on vinyl as well. Pollution are a harsh, raw, dissonant hardcore outfit with some AmRep influences who remind me of classics such as Born Against and Rorscach. If you like your hardcore clean and buff, this won't do the trick for you.

Order this in the UK for £9 postpaid, in Europe for £12 postpaid or £15 postpaid for the rest of the world by paypalling to feastoftentacles@hotmail.com. While you're at it, they're also still taking pre-orders for the upcoming Thou / Mohoram Atta 12" which you might want as well.

The 2nd installment in the Clone Series is upon us, which is a compilation of bands playing a cover of one of their old hardcore, punk, metal or rock favorites. On this 2nd Volume, it looks something like this: *Moloch - lighnting strikes twice (Rorschach)*On Pain of Death - troops of doom (Sepultura)*Golden Gorilla - absentee debate (Unbroken)*Aguirre - like weeds (His Hero is Gone) *Loss - the fog (Goatlord)*Thou - well fed fuck (Born Against) *Shadow of the Torturer - judgement of the dead (Pagan Altar) *Hey Colossus - institutionalized (Suicidal Tendencies). Something for everyone I guess, and for only $12€ you can't really go wrong with this.

The Clone "Play Slow . Die Fast" Volume 2 LP is limited to 400 copieson 185g black vinyl and 200 copies on 190g blue vinyl. All records come in an embossed cover with stamped oval diecut, a full colored 12" sized inlay and a 12-paged 9"-sized booklet with info on every contributing band. Order this now from Blind Date Records, and if you still haven't ordered Shadow of the Torturer "March into Chaos" LP from them, I advise you to order the 2 as a package and save some cash!

Thou / Salome - Split LP

Thou shall not kill...easy for now. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife...tough One. Thou shall not purchase this record...a damn shame. Because what we have here, is two of the Greats pressed onto one piece of vinyl to worshop the power of the Riff. Thou and Salome teaming up is definitely one of the best split albums of the year (on paper, haven't heard a single note of it, but who cares), and will hopefully deliver some amazing sludgy doom metal to get us through the winter.

The Thou/Salome split LP is limited to 1000 copies, 900 on black vinyl, 100 on red vinyl reserved for pre-orders, so make sure that's you. Or, you could whine and complain about the euro-dollar currency, the steep shipping and whatnot ofcourse. I for one applaud the times that the cool releases come from this side of the pond, because normally it's us Euros who have to import everything. There! International customers have to pay...€17,00 shipping included. Not too bad I guess.

Pre-order this Split LP from Vendetta and while you're at it, they'll throw in the Salome 's/t' LP for a nice discount price, and you might also want to pre-order another upcoming split LP by Omega Massif and Mount Logan.
