RAW POWER “You are the victim / God’s course” digipack CD out now on FOAD Records!!

Posted in Raw Power, Releases on April 15th, 2013 by foadmaster2022

Shortly after launching the head-splitting 32 song cyclone that is Cripple Bastards’ “Live to hate people” CD, we are proud to announce another classic of crushing, unrelenting Italian Hadcore… RAW POWER “You are the victim / God’s course” is finally here and ready to ship!!

R.P.’s first legendary debut 12″ (1983) in its best sounding version ever, enriched by an incredible extra feature: the completely unknown/unreleased “God’s course” Demo 1982 (14 songs) that we recently found in TVOR’s archives, recorded even before Mauro Codeluppi joined the band, and seeing his brother Giuseppe and Silvio trading vocal duties delivering embryonic versions of their early anthems.

 

“You are the victim” has been transfered from the original reels and remastered at Toxic Basement Studio (for those following FOAD, a guarantee of quality!), still mantaining the raw and energetic impact these Italian HC champions are well known for.  Deluxe digipack CD with 12 page booklet filled with early day photos, flyers and rare excerpts.

CONCRETE BLOCK “Twilight of the Gods” digipack CD, PRE-ORDERS START NOW!!

Posted in Concrete Block, Pre Orders, Releases on April 10th, 2013 by foadmaster2022

Pre-orders for CONCRETE BLOCK “Twilight of the Gods” digipack CD are open, we’ll start to ship on April, 21st 2013. Brand new album delivered by these merciless bone-breakers hailing from Torino, Northern Italy. CONCRETE BLOCK carve a new chapter in sheer brutality and demolish the bars set by today’s Hardcore revivalists delivering a death raid that combines the slow paced groovy Sludgecore heaviness of Crowbar with a solid taste in good old thrashin’ Crossover/HC (think of Crumbsuckers, Sepultura and early day Corrosion Of Conformity).

A Carnivore cover ends the onslaught and proves from which background these outlaws come from.. 8 songs of full-throated rage, backed by a magnificent production. All this served in a FOAD-styled deluxe digipack with 12 page booklet. Hands down the most promising band in today’s Italian Metal/Hardcore scene! 

 

CRIPPLE BASTARDS “Live to hate people II/I” digipack CD out now on FOAD Records!

Posted in Cripple Bastards, Releases on April 8th, 2013 by foadmaster2022

Imagine a live set starting with “at the end of show, I’ll get the one that threw this bottle and I’ll fuck his mother” and culminating into a riot, broken PA and desperate sound technicians and promoters threatening to call the cops. It’s not an ordinary live album, it’s the first official Cripple Bastards’ live full length, the insane follow up to “Live to hate people” 3″ MCD (1998) including – on popular demand – the highly debated Rovereto show interrupted by a furious riot and anarchists throwing bottles on stage. This has been captured by a crystal ultra-powerful soundboard recording, and besides the fun fact of all the insults and gags between the songs, you also get the best sounding CB live performance ever, strenghtened by the band vs audience hostilty of the whole set!

This also includes as bonus the older “Live to hate people” vol.1 originally released 15 years ago as a 3″MCD and now completely remastered. All together 32 songs of rabid Fastcore/Grind in the total hateful spirit this band has been delivering for 25 years with no compromise and remorse!! Deluxe digipack with 12 page booklet including photos, flyers and liner notes. An ominous appetizer for those who anxiously wait for the band’s upcoming 5th studio album, to be released later this year on Relapse Records. WAR ON EVERYTHING HATE/GRINDCORE SINCE 1988!

FEAR OF GOD “As statues fell” gatefold LP and ltd. picture disc LP out now!!

Posted in Fear Of God, Releases on March 21st, 2013 by foadmaster2022

The wait is over, FEAR OF GOD “As statues fell” gatefold LP has finally been delivered at FOAD Rec‘s headquarters and it’s a fucking destroyer!!

As previously announced, there are 3 different versions available:

– die-hard ltd. picture disc LP (200 copies)

 

– white vinyl (250 copies)

– black vinyl (250 copies)

..all of them served in a thick, glossy UV varnished gatefold jacket that is an accurate reproduction of the original sleeve as it came out in 25 years ago on Off The Disk Records.  And once again about the contents: remastered from original mastertapes, spiced up with 9 additional tracks, it now sounds better than ever before. The clean A-side recording is a tour de force with non-stop over the top brutality and highest speed-drumming – no triggers, no overdubs, just extremely brutal power. This was clearly the band’s climax as a live band. The B-side represents the impact on the audience: dirty, raw, violent – like a bunch of rabid dogs jumping off the stage to rip the audience apart. If their debut 21 track Ep (1988) tore you a new asshole, this 33 song version of “As statues fell” will leave you floored with its anti-tank gun gracefulness!
