Heavy X-Mas or Black Mass or whatever…

I’ll take a small break during the holidyas, so stay tuned till the next year and spread the word!

Meanwhile, enjoy Twisted Sister with “12 Days of Christmas” and Spinal Tap’s classic “Christmas with the Devil”:

 

New single released by DJ Phoney

Instead of standard beatbuilding, Phoney took production work a step further. This is a one-man-band approach that tributes the classic field of funky libraries and suspense soundtracks. Especially the fans of Mr. Tarantino should give it a try…
The video has been shot and cut by Nicolas Hautop, who is also responsible for the Drake Records trailers (Pt. I and Pt. II).

Download the track at Phoney’s Reverbnation page!

ASG sign to Relapse

North Carolina Stoner Punk (or whtever you want to call it…) act ASG has recently signed a deal with Relapse, thus becoming label mates with the likes of Red Fang, Black Tusk, Howl and Baroness, to name a few. A new album, produced by no other than Matt Hyde, is to be expected at the end of 2012.
A Southern US tour has been confirmed already, as well as a special appearance  at next year’s Hellfest in France.
Stay tuned for more and enjoy the video for “Right Death Before”, the first track of Win Us Over (Volcom Records, 2007):

New video to be completed by Red Fang

Red Fang (from Portland, Oregon) have just completed the video shoot for their song “Hank Is Dead”, taken from this year’s critically acclaimed album Murder The Mountains. Some stills can be seen at the band’s Facebook page. The video will be aired in a few weeks and was directed by Rob “Whitey” McConnaughy, who was also responsible for the “Prehistoric Dogs” as well as videos by Turbonegro and Mudhoney.

A free downlaod of the track “Number Thirteen”, also from Murder The Mountains, is available here. The song is featured in a new video game called Rocksmith.

These sisters show no mercy: 7″ by Doomsisters

Wow, I just dropped the needle and a few seconds later it’s all over! Well, not really, but French Grindcore outfit Doomsisters keeps the pedal to the metal most of the time.

Double edged French Crust: Human Compost-Geraniüm split 7″

This one’s a real gem if you’re into Crust with some melodic overtones. Two excellent French bands carved into vinyl as black as their sound. It came out in 2010 already, so maybe you heard about the bands earlier…
