Posted in Nausea, Plutocracy, Terrorizer (L.A.) on January 29th, 2026 by foadmaster2022Welcome to a new series of F.O.A.D. releases, the first of 2026. Unfortunately, we had to skip a month and start again from here due to significant delays in delivery from the printing plant for Gore Beyond Necropsy and Sore Throat generated by Xmas congestion… but that’s the way it is and there’s not much we can do about it. The important thing is that you have received your orders and enjoyed our year-end noisy atrocities! To kick off 2026 in the best possible way, we thought we’d assault you right away with a tornado of sonic brutality of the most ballistic and ferocious kind… The theme for this month is pioneering Californian grindcore, with four releases by three titans in the genre: NAUSEA LA, PLUTOCRACY, and TERRORIZER LA. For Oscar Garcia’s NAUSEA, we are pleased to announce the completion of two anthologies (both on vinyl and CD) that we have assembled over the course of more than 10 years of feverish work, reconstructing their non-album recordings from 1987-1992 and 1998-2006. In addition to these, and staying within the same family, given the high demand we have decided to release the fifth reissue of a true F.O.A.D. classic, the TERRORIZER compilation “Before the Downfall” on double LP+CD, this time with purple artwork (are you collecting them all?). And finally, another legend of the 90s grind/powerviolence scene: PLUTOCRACY, with the reissue of their rare 12“ entitled ”Off the pigs“. A t-shirt bundle is also available for them.
So, to sum up: NAUSEA ”World struggle – Extended edition” (Complete demos and rehearsals 1987-1992) 2xLP+7“ and 2xCD digipack, NAUSEA ”Exile to confinement – The forgotten demo years collection” 2xLP and 2xCD digipack, PLUTOCRACY “Off the pigs” LP and TERRORIZER “Before the downfall” 2xLP+CD are all available on pre-order at www.scareystore.com As usual, we have made several discounted bundle offers for those who want to get multiple releases together. To conclude, our usual recommendations: we advise you not to wait too long if you want to get your hands on the limited editions (splatter/marble). Take last month as an example: two out of 3 are already sold out… And one last thing: please don’t bombard us with unnecessary requests such as substitutions in orders already placed, address changes, payment changes – all this delays our daily work, delays the shipments themselves, and causes us a lot of stress. Once an order is placed, be patient and you will receive everything as soon as possible.
More in details about this month’s blasting artillery:
NAUSEA “World struggle – Extended edition” (Complete demos and rehearsals 1987-1992) gatefold double LP+7″ and double CD digipack (F.O.A.D. 388)
LOS ANGELES GRINDCORE at its finest! Expanded and upgraded version that collects all the band’s recordings from 1987 to 1992, with over 1 hour of extra material compared to the previous edition released in 2013. A lethal mix of old school grindcore, crust and touches of death metal with inevitable references to TERRORIZER’s legendary album “World Downfall”. Fact is that about a third of the songs on Terrorizer’s “World Downfall” were actually material from NAUSEA, singer Oscar Garcia’s previous (and current) band. This new version includes the cult split tape with TERRORIZER (1988), the “Psychological Conflict” EP (1990), the ultra-rare “Mind Dead” (demo 1990), “Tumor” (1992 demo), “Breed” demo (1992), various rehearsals from 1987 to 1990, and the “Live crime” tape (1991). 49 TRACKS!! This is raw, doomy and corrosive death metal tinged GRIND with whirlwind blast beats and those incredible moshing riffs that became so influential when World Downfall gained its deserved success. GATEFOLD LP with bonus 7″ (feat. two rare rehearsals 1987), completely revamped artwork and a 16-page booklet with flyers and excerpts from fanzines of the time.

PLUTOCRACY “Off the pigs” LP (F.O.A.D. 406)
Formed in 1988 in Redwood City, California, Plutocracy are hands down one of the most iconic and unique names in West Coast powerviolence. Multi-vocals, angular riffing, neck-breaking tempo changes, rap inserts, noise grafts. All perfectly stitched together on a top tier grinding PowerViolence backbone. Recorded in 2010 and originally released in a scarcely circulated pressing very sought after by collectors, “Off the Pigs” is the last studio effort from this legendary unit, a bloodcurdling scream of street life, anti-authoritarian mindset and unrest mentality. Plutocracy defy the strictest definitions, a one-of-a-kind band that is impossible to pigeonhole, standing in the same category as Spazz, Crom, Agents Of Satan and No Le$$. This new edition of “Off the Pigs” is accompanied by a very limited t-shirt.
