|
| Brand new LP! From scenepointblank.com: 'So yes, Blacklisted released an album that will
alienate their fans. It didn't alienate me though and actually turned Blacklisted into a band I've
always enjoyed into my favorite hardcore band going. A slot that's been left vacant for quite
some time. The slow burn, the tune down guitars, the hammering drums, the uses of non-
hardcore instruments like a piano, a trumpet and whatever the hell a rain stick is, the personal
lyrics yelped by George; I love it all. I usually don't care when a band progresses this far but
when it is done right, it can be awesome. And No One Deserves to be Here More Than Me is
awesome. So please let go of all your preconceived notions you've had about Blacklisted and
listen to this album with an open mind. You will realize that not only did Blacklisted release
one of the most talked records, they also released one of the best albums of 2009.' Colored
vinyl in stock.

their hometown the 'City of Pop' you won't find any of that here. If you heard Bukkake Boys'
self-released first EP, Splendid Thoughts, then you're already a fan. If not, prepare yourself for
some of the most violent and aggressive hardcore you've heard in a long time. This one is all
frantic riffs, vocals that sound like they're going to eat you alive, and one of the meanest-sounding
drummers out there. 7 songs and not a second wasted.
|

face-ripping new extremes. Recorded across three continents, the basic tracks were laid
down at Polymorph Studios in Oakland, California by producer Dan Rathbun (Tragedy, His
Hero is Gone, Talk Is Poison), then completed vocals in Perth at Bergerk! Studios, assisted

roar to the aptly titled 'Grind To A Halt'.

|
| MEMORIAL - The Creative Process/Berlin LP (Flightplan/Photobooth) EUR 12.50 |
|
| The group began when RENEE HEARTFELT disbanded. Other than the name change though,
the sound has virtually stayed the same. Memorial employ the same post-hardcore dynamics
practiced by Renee Heartfelt. Which basically means if bands like Quicksand, Texas Is The
Reason or Samiam make you swoon then you will probably dig what Memorial got going on.
The band’s debut was originally supposed to be two seperate 7-inches with Revelation Records.
Which considering the band’s sound would seem like a perfect fit but for whatever reason that
never materialized. Here we finally have the band’s first eight songs compiled onto one sweet
looking LP, The Creative Process/Berlin. The emotionally charged vocals of Peter Appleby are
the focal point for Memorial just as they were for Renee Heartfelt. But while Renee Heartfelt
seemed to be distancing themselves from their roots/influences, Memorial seem quite delighted
to indulge themselves. The band takes a more natural approach with their songs and there is a
definite nod towards their past as Memorial retain a harder edged exterior.
Photobooth Records is pleased to bring you the lost copies of The Creative Process/ Berlin.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, this record never saw the light of day when it was released
back in '08. This was limited to 500 copies and is hard to come by. On colored vinyl.
|
|

former and current members of Throwdown, Eighteen Visions, Enewetak, Welcome To Your Life,
Amendment 18, Culture, Until the End, Monument To Thieves and Adamantium. What you get
is 'short, fast, pissed hardcore and punk with the signature orange county metallic hardcore of
the late 90's early 2000's'. 15 fast and pissed off songs drawing influences from bands such as
Ruination and Ringworm. Colored vinyl in stock.
|
|
| NO FRIENDS - s/t LP (No Idea) EUR 11.50 |
|
| So this is what happens when you lock Tony (Municipal Waste) and Sam, Richard, and
Alex (New Mexican Disaster Squad) in a cement mixer. No Friends seethes and boils
with the same unbridled fury that defined mid-'80s hardcore while also drawing strongly
on the melodic elements pioneered by Dag Nasty and Descendents. Cynical,
misanthropic and critical, this record exists in the grey area between a punch to the
throat and a desperate hug from an old friend. Vinyl version includes download code.
On colored vinyl.
|
|
| NOT SORRY - Moving On 7" (LifeLine) EUR 4.50 |
|
| Not Sorry is a straight edge band from Seattle, WA. Influenced by the sound of the late
'80s Revelation Records bands along with contemporaries from the late '90s, their
purpose is to play stripped down, fast hardcore. Their lyrics not only make kids want to
sing along but to think about the world around them and how they choose to treat others;
human and animal alike. EP includes MP3 digital download. On colored vinyl.
|
|
| ON POINT - Look Me In The Eyes demo tape (Hard Press) EUR 4.00 |
|

band that has come and gone. Awesome band from O.C. Cali with enough energy to fill
your cup of coffee and more. I have a small quantity of their sold out demo tape.
|
|
| ONE CHOICE - Forever War LP (Seventh Dagger) EUR 11.50 |
|
| Featuring the vocalist of former So Cal heroes Collision as well as other all-stars from the
area, One Choice continue to fly the flag for the straight edge, offering up a full-length's
worth of fast, pissed off hardcore in the vein of early Strife and Judge, with this album
featuring guest appearances by Scott and Karl of Earth Crisis, Greg Bennick of Trial,
Mike Hartsfield of Outspoken, Andrew Klein of Strife and Toby Morse of H2O.
|
|
| OUT TO SEA - The Soul Of Mankind 7" (Just Another Day) EUR 4.00 |
|
| Hailing from outside of Dallas, this Texas hardcore outfit delivers six tracks of premium
melodic hardcore with a slightly metallic edge. Musically their sound reminds me of Shai
Hulud, but a little bit more melodic – perhaps Kid Dynamite-esque at points. They've got
it all, good sing-along parts, some fast-paced two-stepping parts, and of course good
breakdowns. For a demo recording Out to Sea is well on their way. Take note now.
|
|
| PEGASUS - s/t 7" (Six Feet Under) EUR 5.00 |
|
| This is the second pressing of the very limited Pegasus EP. Very reminiscent of Leeway from members

|
| REACTIONARIES - Ingenuity LP (Deranged) EUR 12.50 |

'70s psychedelia with some serious European soul, Deranged Records swooped in to bring
the world this eight-song record, recorded on the momentum of a European tour with The
Damned.
|
|
| REGULATIONS - To Be Me LP (Deranged) EUR 13.00 |
|
| Umea, Sweden's Regulations continue to up the ante on melodic punk, taking another step
forward in their melody and songwriting, but keep the aggression and driving early-L.A. punk
sound, taking cues from the Circle Jerks and the Weirdos.
|
|
| REMISSION - Accept LP (Amendment) EUR 12.00 |
|
| With these 9 songs, Remission delivers us a sound reminiscent of late 80's and early 90's
bands such as Verbal Assault, One Step Ahead and Uniform Choice, but with a unique
touch that makes this record a very progressive piece, with both awesome vocal and guitar
works. Lyrically this album is absolutely powerful and insightful, but direct at the same time.
It goes from personal topics like true love and self-criticism, to social stuff like brutal
consequences of Pinochet's dictatorship in Chile, the illusion of patriotism, social
discrimination and imposition to believe in a dude with long hair, by our parents and society.
These lyrics encourage you in a positive way to think for yourself and to struggle for what
you think is fair in this sick world. Remission live shows could give you an idea that hardcore
is more than music. This is an amazing record, and I only have a finite amount of copies (300
pressed), so get this now. On colored vinyl.
|
|
| RESOLVE - Won't Stand By LP (Just Another Day) EUR 10.00 |
|
| Resolve is a five-piece straight edge band from the St. Louis area that plays pure late '80s
youth crew hardcore, in the classic style that bands like Youth Of Today and Turning Point
did. The songs are fast, energetic, full of catchy sing-alongs and deal with life from a positive
perspective. With lyrics about the meat industry, the power of oil corporations in the USA,
intelligent design, but also about being different and making a positive change, Resolve
makes clear that the have something to say. On colored vinyl.
|
|
| RISE & FALL - Into Oblivion LP (Deathwish) EUR 12.00 |
|
| 'Into Oblivion' captures the kind of all-encompassing emotional darkness and white-knuckle
violence that few bands ever artistically achieve. From the unbridled ferocity of 'Forked
Tongues' to the sonic desolation of 'Ruins,' the album is truly jaw dropping. For fans of
Pulling Teeth, Trapped Under Ice and Lewd Acts. Now available again on colored vinyl.
Vinyl version includes digital download.
|
|

|
| SCEPTRES - Flatline Generation b/w The Tow 7" (Dirge) EUR 4.00 |
|
| Second single by this jagged, female-fronted post-punk band whose members are spread
across the lower half of the UK. If you liked their first (extremely limited) EP on Dire you'll
love this one as the band returns with more of the same intricate guitar work and smart
and catchy female vox. This time, however, the songs get a little bit longer and darker;
these two tracks are more dynamic and far more confident, the the band finding their own
unique voice somewhere between the propulsive punk of the Rezillos and the jagged
rhythms of first-wave post-punk bands like Swell Maps.
|
|
| SIXES - s/t 7" (Ed Man) EUR 5.00 |
|
| This is the first vinyl put out by Olympia, Washington hardcore band, Sixes. This debut
release features four new songs of crushing, political 90's hardcore. The album contains
meaningful political lyrics, epic sing-a-longs and plenty of chances to tear it up. Sixes
brings a new edge to a nostalgic trip back to simple brutality of 90's hardcore. Fans of
early Integrity, Chokehold and Catharsis will undoubtedly enjoy this.
|
|
| SLAVE SCENE - s/t 7" (Deranged) EUR 5.00 |

|
| THURNEMAN - Tegelsten För Tegelsten 7" (Sorry State) EUR 4.50 |
|
| 3rd EP by this Stockholm, Sweden quartet, and it blows their other two outstanding efforts
out of the water. Defying easy sub-sub-genre categorizations, Thurneman take the raw
materials of straightforward 80s hardcore--blistering drums, frantic riffing, and hoarse,
shouted vocals--and flesh them out with creative song structures and unique atmospheric
touches. This potent combination of aggression and catchiness brings to mind early
80s classics like Hüsker Dü's Everything Falls Apart LP as well as Scandinavian rippers
like Headcleaners and Missbrukarna.

| Despite previously only releasing one EP, Eastern Pennsylvania's Title Fight has been
on an upward trajectory, with a melodic, yet passionate and aggressive sound

| VACANT STATE - Internal Conflict 7" (Deranged) EUR 5.00 |
|
| This second EP from northwest hardcore heroes Vacant State continues to show the band's
love for early-'80s hardcore like Void, Last Rites and Negative Approach, with four short blasts
on the A-side and one five-minute crusher on the B-side with absolutely no flat irons.
|
|
| VAPID - Practically Dead LP (Deranged) EUR 14.00 |
|
| Nearly two years after the 'Do The Earthquake' EP, Vancouver, Canada's Vapid bring out
their debut album. Rough and bittersweet, or just plain spiteful, pop songs with a couple
steamrollers thrown in for good measure. The Go-Go's ditch the glossy production and
record 'Too Tough To Die.' LP includes digital download. On colored vinyl.
|
|
| WAY DOWN - Ghost Please Die 7" (I For Us) EUR 4.50 |
|
| Rising from the ashes of their previous fun band 'Power Rangers Of Hardcore', WAY DOWN
now take it seriously with influences from Verse, Have Heart and Modern Life Is War.
This first official recording contains 4 songs plus one intro. Digital download with one bonus
track included! On colored vinyl.
|
|
| WREAK HAVOC - s/t 7" (Monument) EUR 5.50 |
|
| Wreak Havoc formed in the summer of 2008 with the intentions of writing restless anthems.
Rising from the ashes of several bands from the northeastern Ohio area, Wreak Havoc has
the drive to become a staple in the new generation of hardcore playing fast, intense hardcore
with bitter, honest lyrical content. For fans of American Nightmare, Panic, Modern Life Is War,
Frostbite, Raised Fist and Ceremony. On colored vinyl.

|
| XGRACEX - final demo tape (XGraceX) EUR 2.50 |
|
| These songs were supposed to come out as the new XGRACEX EP. Unfortunately, the band
broke up, but they came up with the (very good) idea of the 'final demo', which was available
at their last shows and limited to 100 copies. I got the leftovers, but they won't last long.
These are some of the nicest guys around and I've always loved the fact that they didn't
confirm to standard SXE/youth crew clichès. They were passionate and outspoken straight
edge, and these are their last songs. They'll be missed.
