We put out a lot of great records in 2007 and are planning to put out more in 2008. But we first need to make room for them and also raise some funds, so we are having a big sale on our web site. Everything that came out in 2007 is on sale and so is a bunch of other releases as well. If you downloaded some of the releases and have been meaning to buy them but have not had the chance, or if you have been meaning to get some of the last few releases but keeping putting it off, it would be much appreciated if you did it soon. Your support helps keep the label going. Now onto some news...

Haram
We are now taking pre-orders on Haram's second full-length, Drescher. Now with three guitarists, Haram takes a decidedly spacious approach with this nine-song album. Haram's latest work supplements their grinding, early material with a technique that is anxious to meander around and explore a terrain informed by brooding melancholy and wry observation. Unrelenting and forward, Drescher shows Haram possessing a mature, tempered confidence that only comes with experience and do-it-yourself resolve. You can order it from our web store. The vinyl is a split release with ADAGIO830 records in Germany and there are two color choices for it: yellow or blue. If you live in Europe, please pick the vinyl up from them via their web site
