SLOTH
songs are untitled

SERVANTS OF SATAN
Pazuzu; Bile of Belial; Fraz-Urb'luu Lord of Deception; Eee Yah; Lemure Blues; Baalzebul; The Dukes of Hell; The Dukes of Hell (radio edit); When I

I've been waiting for nearly 15 years for the infamous Servants of Satan to be unleashed upon the mortals. When I...oh yeah...when I first heard this magical masterpiece of mayhem I was working at a haunted house around Halloween time in 1995.  It then forever changed my way of life. I've always been a fan of the works of Satan i.e. the Sabs, Zep, Kiss, Hellhammer, Bathory, but this was something much more pure and evil than the black magik metal master James Patrick Page could ever conjure up. Still to this day when I...oh yeah...when I hear the Servants of Satan cut "Lemure Blues" I can ACTUALLY feel what it would be like to serve time in hell. See you on some random plane of hell, Athenar (MIDNIGHT)

WELUVPOT
Stoned Grown Grind
SH57  SLOTH "XV" 15 Year Anniversary 12"  (collaboration with SLOTH)  (107 black, 210 gram, all are gone)

Sloth celebrates 15 years of anti-music with this special, commemorative LP!  Boasting individually designed and handcrafted covers including a certificate of authenticity and a DIY lyric sheet; XV is as limited as limited edition vinyl gets.  The first ten copies were painted by  Derek Erdman, and SLOTH handled the rest.  Side A is littered with SLOTH style humor, tender piano reflections, noise and tongue-in-cheek lyricisms.  Side B is an extended, slow-motion dirge.  Truly a one time offer and a loving gift for all followers of this alien, three-toed gargantua!

SH55  MAEGASHIRA / SOWBELLY / OSSM split CD   (collaboration with Blue Grass Records)

MAEGASHIRA
  1.
Adapting to the Noose  2. Thanks, I'm Fine  3. The Man Who Named God  SOWBELLY  4. La Bate  5. The Portrait  6. Perfect Sleeping Weather  OSSM 7. The Beer Halloween  8. Where's the Groove  9. Good Grief

So, it’s another day of the same ol’ shit.  Your girlfriend left you; your boss is dogging you relentlessly and you come home to find your bottle of sippin’ sauce is running on empty.  Even worse, the liquor store is closed.  Somehow, you need release.  Hell, at the very least you need mood music.  Well, here’s the soundtrack that will get you through the tough times!  New Jersey, Michigan and Kentucky (in that order) unite to help you take on the wrongs of the world.  MAEGASHIRA fills your bottle with a Wild Turkey smooth stoner/sludge swing, SOWBELLY steamrolls your lowlife boss with down-tempo hate-doom and OSSM makes you forget that lousy tramp with a smoky blues caress.  It’s an epic hour’s worth of sludge to help you abandon a lifetime of bad days! 
2008  
SH18  RUE s/t 12"  (collaboration with Feast of Tentacles)  (300 black / 200 red/black)   

A.  The Escapist;  Flathead;  Complacence;  Shut Your Mouth;  Quash
B.  Born with Frostbite;  The Locus;  Stonersaurus;  70mg

And they said only Jesus and true believers could be reborn… I highly doubt you’ll see the members of RUE at a Sunday service anytime soon but it doesn’t stop the band’s self-titled debut from rising like a phoenix outta hot ash.  Their patented whiplash of hardcore, sludge and metal is given a second life on this finely sliced piece of vinyl.  See, where it all began if you sat it out the first time or experience it again if you’re a true member of the faith! 

Vinyl press of sold out 2003 CD release.

SH53  MOLOCH 10"  (collaboration with Feast of Tentacles)

A.  Thy Grief;  Who Is This  Who Is Coming
B.  Black Winter;  Repulsion

Unholy, agitated hate-sludge from the UKs rich breeding grounds!  Four tracks of feedback, depression, minor groove fluctuations and Strep throat screaming following in the trendsetting paths blazed by DYSTOPIA, CAVITY, SEVEN FOOT SPLEEN and GOATSBLOOD.  Your skin will need a guaranteed sandblasting after one listen!  So fortunately for you, a sandblaster is not included, thus leaving MOLOCHs fetid stink to follow you everywhere that you decide to show your ugly face from here to eternity!  Only true sludge extremists dare apply.
SH54  RAXINASKY "The Anti-apopathodiaphulatophobicoustical Days" CD  (collaboration with Amertume Records, Skyr Records, Nothing Positive Records, Ocinatas Records, HCB Records & Obscure Sombre Records)

1. Day 1  2. Day 2  3. Day 3  4. Day 4  5. Day 5  6. Day6

Confounding jazz-doom-sludge-grind-noise from Brussels guitar and drum duo that obliterates borders and decimates boundaries.  Primal urgency vaporizes minds in the wake of devastating blasts, buzzsaw riffs, downtuned doom crescendos and relentless larynx abuse.  Name a grind band that can throw acoustic interludes and an 18 minute track onto the same album and not make it suck; if you guessed anything other than RAXINASKY, you were sorely off the mark. 

SH51  RUE "A Heart Held by Demons" 12"  (400 black / 100 random colors)  

A. 
The Hardway; To Cancer
B.  Reek of Human; Gates 

RUE returns with their most accomplished material to date.  The ante has been upped in every way imaginable with sludge, metal and hardcore all taking a swing at your jugular!  Smoother singing, sicker screams, nastier riffs, and more soulful grooves…what else could the loyal RUE fan ask for?  How about a mind-blowing layout courtesy of artist Tom Denney?  Icing on the cake for a 12” packed with surprises.  Those dopesick over the wait for the new full-length will need an immediate dose of this shit straight to the veins!

SH52  SCHNAUZER / CROSSFACE split 7"  (collaboration with Scrap Metal & Rescued From Life Records)  (500 black / 500 orange)

SCHNAUZER  Total Lunatic;  Blasted Beyond Belief
CROSSFACE 
In My Blood;  Fighting Back

Parma and Cleveland lock horns in a no-holds barred civil war of metal, punk and hardcore.  Long running, dog-headed trio SCHNAUZER explodes with two new tracks of basement bashing punk/metal, reviving the rotten corpse of the legendary DEAD HORSE!  CROSSFACE counterattacks with a beer swilling punk/hardcore inferno built upon short songs and growl-a-long choruses.  Crack a beer and prepare for the onslaught!
SH45  SLOTH / SMG split 7"  (collaboration with My Cheap Ass Life)   (200 pressed on camouflage vinyl, all are gone)

SLOTH  Sloth is so Fake
SMG  Nuclear Worship;  Self-Destruction is Good for You;  Punk Rock Babylon Burns;  Destroy Personality

Ohio's strangest noise artists team up with Malaysia's quickest grinders, for a high noon showdown of Ok Corral proportions.  SLOTH's one contribution is some sort of stitched together, Frankenstein creation.  Their cut was literally too long for the 7" so it was chopped in half and disorganized by placing the first half on the left channel and the second half on the right!  Then the sound was switched from stereo to mono, to further fuck with your head.  In the end it sounds like SOCKEYE meets Crucial Blast's SAMUS as played by Alvin and the Chipmunks.  S.M.G. is SLOTHs polar opposites, pulverizing craniums with light speed powerviolence backed by the most scathing, cackled vocals heard since FLESH PARADEs Kill Whitey! 
2007  
SH50  SHALLNOTKILL / FANTASTIKOL HOLE / TEKKEN / MOON split CD  (collaboration with Ocinatas, NHDYST, Krusty le Clown, Wee Wee, 213 Records, Burning Emptiness, Skyr, Parade & Noisy Bear)

SHALLNOTKILL  1. Resilience  2. A bout de souffle   3. Entombed universe   THE FANTASTIKOL HOLE  4. Untitled  5. Untitled  6. Olof thunder-g en trois parties  TEKKEN  7. Die young = stay stupid  8. No think  9. Fast & hard  10. Assholes pimp  11. Don't want to be like you  12. Me, you, truth crew   13. PC shoes  14. Get out  MOON  15. (2007-03-22)= the joy of plenty and hope  16. (2007-03-20)= dr forbin  17. (2007-02-01)= dead and dreaming

A collaboration of the finest in French, underground inhospitality! SHALLNOTKILL (RIP) abandons their jittery hardcore past for a wayward future, delving into doom-laden twin guitar sludge and skyward expanse.  Sadly, their final set of recordings.  FANTASTIKOL HOLE erects industrial girders of GODFLESH, paving the way with flesh and a fog of factory smoke, only to see their structures jettisoned into space by TEKKEN’s carpet bombing of grind/punk tenacity.  MOON heals the pain of the aforementioned carnage with their hypnotic, doom-tinged Ashra freakouts.
SH49  RAW RADAR WAR "= =" CD  (collaboration with Traktor7)

1. Double Equals  2. Never Forgive Action  3. Greed Redux  4. Crucify Me  5. Lack of Fire Discipline  6. Vampire Command  7. Rupture:  8. Process  9. Riven Tarmac  10. Supreme Truth  11. Shining Path  12. TV Death  13. Time is the Best Revenge  14. Your Prime Directive  15. Truckloads of Ammunition

A brutal mix of hardcore, sludge and crust from Boston’s RAW RADAR WAR (aka SEPTIC YOUTH COMMAND).  Featuring the militant vocals of crooner turned psycho Jonah Jenkins (ONLY LIVING WITNESS, MILTOWN and MILLIGRAM), R.R.W. bulldoze mind and body, letting loose a torrent of audio lead on the senses.  Blazing punk crescendos ignite circle pits but always remain wary of the doom mindset with downshifts into turgid swamps of sludge-y mud n’ muck, lending the band a true Jekyll/Hyde persona.  The most visionary crust-doom record you’re like to hear this decade and not for the faint of heart!

Artwork by Guy Wetherbee.  Cover printed by Flexovit Press.
SH48  HEY COLOSSUS "Project: Death" CD  (collaboration with Jonson Family Records, Rimbaud Records and Under Hill Records)

1. Do They Ever Return?  2. I Am the Chiswick Strangler  3. 45 Pounds  4. Frozed  5. Rope Assassin  6. The Book of Disquiet  7. On the Pleasure of Hating  8. Grow Still at Last

UK’s Hey Colossus return with a vengeance!  Eliminating nearly all shades of moody melody only to replace it with hard-charging, consistently doom-laden riffing… this new Colossus record is a largely different animal from II.  The majority of the former album’s atmospherics have been placed in the background; shifting focus to a leaner sound with jaws locked on a feral groove.  Dingy production throws an additional layer of grime under the fingernails as FLOOR’s hypnotic thud turns to silly putty in the hands of CAVITY and MOHO’s filthy, scream-blasted bile.  Shower not included! 
SH47  CONSULAR "Don't Cross the Swine" CD  (collaboration with Abort the World)

1. Introduction  2. Snakeater  3. Open Your Mouth  4. Torn Face  5. Prisoner  6. Living in the Land of the Blind

Feedback as religion; such is the motto of Florida’s CONSULAR.  On their debut they show their love for long defunct, fellow statesmen CAVITY, squealing their way through 6 meaningful blasts of low brow groove, stop/start riff-fests and piercing, endless guitar noise.  Wrathful vocals rain down a constant tongue lashing as the band remains locked into a forceful bludgeon.  While less Southern than their elders, CONSULAR is no less possessed in sending a spear of fearsome sludge straight through your eardrums.
2006  
SH46  VOG s/t CD

1. The Stepping Stones of Humane Survival  2. Odin's Will  3. Like the Sky Above  4. A Man of Action  5. Transcending the Bullshit  6. Liar Cheater Thief  7. Whatever Works

The first and only record from Virginia’s now deceased psychopaths.  Those wishing Dax Riggs would cut the artsy bullshit and make friends with the ACID BATH members again, say hello to your new favorite album.  Scattershot, death/grind speed surgery combines with epic Southern sprawl, catapulted into the cosmos by Steve Kerchner’s (SEVENTH GATE, LOST-IT) schizophrenic mix of crooning and screeching.  Recommended listening for the criminally insane. 
 
  SH44  elysiüm / MONARCH split CD  (collaboration with Murder Records, Solitude Records, 213 Records, Throne Records, Parade Records, Amanita Records, Wee Wee, Fidelio and Amertume Records) (all are gone)

elysiüm  1. Amen Jesus je t'aime  2. Short Message  Menteurs  3. Ame Sainte  MONARCH  4. Amplifier Death March

Talk about your polar opposites, it’s like night and day on this one!  This French pairing brings together the skull exploding grind antics of
elysiüm and the super slow motion doom of MONARCHelysiüm splatters gray matter with four cuts in 10 minutes of noxious, hyper speed grind frenzy.  Scathing vocal outbursts pulverize your body into a glorious, lifeless state as the no nonsense riffing and tenacious blasts carry your corpse into the tomb.  Fans of early NAPALM DEATH, 324 and BENUMB will chomp at the bit over this insanity.  Meanwhile MONARCH eclipses the sun with a 58 minute dirge featuring some of the sickest female vocals ever committed to tape!  Hopeless droning, dredging riffs and a fetid air of misery impact with all the subtlety of a rusted knife to the groin.  If BURNING WITCH is too fast for you, then MONARCH should fit just right! 
SH43  HEY COLOSSUS / dot(.) split 12"  (collaboration with Jonson Family and Blind Date)  (1st press 411 black / 109 hand-numbered color, 2nd press 322 black, all are gone)

HEY COLOSSUS  Kittens
dot(.)  
Black Acid

Its an international sludge extravaganza as UK transcendentalists HEY COLOSSUS team up with Japans enigmatic filth legends dot (.)!  One extended cut from each act.  HC offers up Kittens; their heaviest, most psychedelic masterpiece yet.  Burnt-out feedback, howling vocals, shambling heft and a godly 70s groove provides a cerebral mind-fuck in the hallowed tradition of ELECTRIC WIZARD, CAVITY and CHURCH OF MISERY. dot (.) contributes the equally oppressive and impressive Black Acid; a guttural, slow-motion doom jam that squeezes life from hearts akin to BURNING WITCHs quicksand inferno seasoned with a slight BONGZILLA groove twist! 
SH42  SON OF JOR-EL / ERIK LARSON split 7"  (collaboration with Underdogma, Heretic and Son of Jor-El)  (525 black)

SON OF JOR-EL  (Bow Before) the Blood Lord
ERIK LARSON  
Cat Nap

Cutthroat, 7 action home to some of sludge, doom and stoner rocks most notorious personalities!  SON OF JOR-EL boast the sludge lovers dream line-up of CT (RWAKE), Big Metal Dave (DEATHCRAWL) and Corey Bing (ULTRALORD, etc.) as they unleash (Bow Before) the Blood Lord; a cosmic, combine harvester of doom, metal and 70s swing that sucks up every living thing within a 1,000 mile radius.  Meanwhile on Side B, Erik Larson (ALABAMA THUNDER PUSSY, BIRDS OF PREY, KILARA, etc.) drops Cat Nap; a gritty ,whiskey soaked gem full of cigarette ripped singing and southern doom thunder, aged to perfection like any good fifth of Jack!  Worshippers of the riff get down on one knee and say hello to your new altar.

SH39  ULTRALORD "Act I" CDR  (self released by Ultralord)  (all are gone)

1. Misery Sweet Misery  2. Under the Gallows  3. Dragon Milk  4. How Long Has it Been  5. Black Maggot  6. The Great Mourning

Miscreants unite!  From the ashes of FISTULA rises ULTRALORD, the dirtiest of the dirty, the sickest of the sick and so on and so forth.  On ULTRALORD's debut former FISTULA & MADMAN MUNDNT personnel align forces to plunder the sunken depths of crusty thrash and pillage the village of dooms long sought missing link.  Ever wonder what happens if you leave your instruments soaking in a vat of LSD?  Act I attempts to answer that question with a donnybrook consisting of psychedelic guitar solos, chopped-up thrash tempos, bloody knuckle lysergia and screams of oblivion.  ULTRALORD isn't just music, its pure rage defined!

Recorded by Don Depew at ANTEUP AUDIO

SH38  MADMAN MUNDT "For A Day Or A Lifetime" CDR  (collaboration with Madman Mundt)  (all are gone)

1. Kali Bomb  2. Billy Mummy  3. Morning Never Came  4. Acreta  5. Threat Level  6. Wall Of Spiders  7. Daggers Of Megiddo  8. Salt Lick  9. Kabanda

MADMAN MUNDT may have been one of the most eclectic bands to ever walk the planet; standing as a roaring tempest of noise-rock, crust, doom and metal!  One minute you're wrestling with a heathen SABBATH sludge riff and the next your head is getting split in two with a squealing, Am-rep power surge.  Vocalist Mark DAngelo is no less schizophrenic; ranting and raving with a ferocity that wires together the synapses of David Yow, Jello Biafra, King Buzzo and Mike D. Williams, turning them into a haphazardly stitched together, Frankenstein nightmare!  Think The JESUS LIZARD with a terrifying crust/doom psychosis, additionally sporting demonic art wizard Scott Stearns on guitar.  

Recorded by Don Depew at ANTEUP AUDIO.  Illustrations by Scott Stearns.
SH37  BOULDER "Degenerates" 7"  (collaboration with My Minds Eye Records & Outlaw Recordings)  (500 black, all are gone)

SH36  MIDNIGHT "Complete and Total F**king  Midnight" CD  (collaboration with My Minds Eye Records & Outlaw Recordings)  (1,000 pressed, all are gone)

from s/t mini LP
: 1. Funeral Bell  2. All Hail Hell  3. Servant of No One  4. Unholy and Rotten  5. I am Violator  6. Hot Graves  7. Long Live Death  from 7”:  8. White Hot Fire  9. Endless Slut  from unreleased 12” EP: 10. Lord in Chains  11. Strike of Midnight  12. Take You to Hell  13. ...On the Wings of Satan  from 7” comp: 14. Turn Up the Hell  previously unreleased: 15. Death Sentence

All hail the heroes of Hell!  Not since VENOMs heyday has a band kicked out such a deliciously evil record.  MIDNIGHT not only resurrects VENOMs decomposing corpse, it breathes life into the fucker via the dragon breath boogie of vintage MOTORHEAD and the crusty chops of DISCHARGE!  All cuts were performed, deformed and ravaged by Athenar, in the midnight hour!  Beware MIDNIGHT is the ultimate weapon of heavy metal devastation!  
SH35  HEY COLOSSUS "II" CD  (collaboration with Jonson Family Records)  

1. Red Giant  2. Horsehead  3. Take It  4. Vengeance  5. Raise the Flag (This Planet's Ours)  6. Europa

Forget the whole post-doom movement, HEY COLOSSUS laugh at it and tell it to go stand in the corner…dunce cap and all.  On II, the UK juggernauts prove you can still pack melody into your sound without sacrificing essential aggression.  Heavyweight guitar tonnage duels with vibrant atmospherics, showcasing everything from sparse clean texturing to full on riff-sludge assaults!  Psychedelic anesthesia, jerky noise-rock and seething doom grooves implode the cerebral cortex in the ultimate showdown of heralded, genre mash-ups.  UFOMAMMUT’s "Snail King" in a blender with UNSANE’s "Occupational Hazard", you ask?  Well, you’re not too far off.
SH34  KING TRAVOLTA s/t CDR  (self released by King Travolta)  (hand-numbered edition of 50, all are gone)

SH33  KING FIRE GOAT "Live May 13th 2002" CDR  (In a slim DVD case, all are gone)

1. Live May 13th 2002 KING FIRE GOAT was Steve Barcus-vocals, Bahb Branca-bass, Corey Bing-drums, Ryon Davis-guitar, Mike Duncan-noise, B.D. Neaville-noise & Jeremy Wilson-dun dun drums

Its a one-off, all-star, live bash on KING FIRE GOATs first and only disc!  If you thought Clive Barker had dreamt up some weird shit with Hellraiser, you aint seen anything yet.  Pinhead would piss his pants if he heard anything like this.  KFG are the audio equivalent of a classic slice n dice picture!  This live set is a horrifying realm where terror lurks around every corner and nothing is as it seems.  Blood drenched power electronics collide head-on with the sweet stench of tried n true, tarpit sludge!  Features the baddest of the bad Shifty alumni including members of FISTULA, NECRODAMUS, MADMAN MUNDT, KING TRAVOLTA & BLACK MAYONNAISE.     
2004  
SH32  RUE / ALDEBARAN split CD  (collaboration with Parasitic Records)  (all are gone)

RUE  1. You Say One Thing  2. Shit Talker  3. Lengthy Delusion  4. Throes of Life  ALDEBARAN  5. They Bend the Trees and Crush the Cities  6. The Obscene  7. Aldebaran Red  8. Tower of Famine

Ohio and Oregon go to war against shitty music in this classic, 2004 mountain mover of a split!  RUE launches the first offensive with four tactical sludge nukes.  Expanding on the neck-snapping formula of their debut, the band lays down a steady stream of hard driving sludge/doom, smoothed out by a more pronounced Southern groove.  ALDEBARAN supports RUE’s right flank with a corrosive volley of psychedelic singed, DOOM airstrikes.  Equal parts spacey reconnaissance and city leveling assault; the band’s shock n’ awe antics incinerates the already charred corpses of all the bullshit, trend metal posers previously wasted by RUE.  A flawless massacre by both esteemed regiments!
SH31  NECRODAMUS s/t CDR   (collaboration with Necrodamus) (all are gone)

1. Warlords Of Chaos  2. Nine Rows Of Teeth  3. Infectious
Blasphemy

Legendary Ohio misanthropes go undercover for three tracks of occult metal.  Disguised under pen names; members of FISTULA, KEELHAUL, MADMAN MUNDNT, etc. raise slit wrists to the sky and summon the black magic of the elder heavies.  CELTIC FROST infecting the lethargic sludge of FISTULA?  HELLHAMMER stuck in a torture chamber with RUE?  Hell, if you guessed either of the above put yourself on the list as a future NECRODAMUS cultist.  While summoning the devil on your own is a time consuming affair, with this disc at your side, youll be bedfellows with the dark lord in no time flat!    

Vocals - Necoreus.  Vocals - Dr. Necronambezium.  Guitar - Necrodamus.  Guitar - Octovaughn.  Drums - Carlito.  Recorded at Rock-Solid Recording.  Illustrations by Scott Stearns.

SH28  SLOTH / RWAKE split 7"  (collaboration with Sloth & Rwake)  (200 black, all are gone)

SLOTH  Death Metal bands shouldn’t say “thank you”, because it’s not very “Death Metal”;  Same thing with Black Metal;  Why do you treat us like animals, Save A Lot;  Kurt Cobain shot himself because he discovered his wife is a Jew;  There should be birth control in government cheese;  Bungee jumping mishaps are funny;  Tom Arnold is not, “he’s just a Jew”;  A swarm of killer bees attack a bunch of zombies;  Tribal confusion caused by zombie plague;  Topless African women bring to naught the zombie plague; The part before the next two parts “I got tired of making up titles”;  I enjoy me some retards parades “especially when they turn violent”; 1 Belgian beer glass, 1 Polish beer glass & 1 Jagermeister shot glass

A.
Ramesses II  
B.
Master (Your Demons)

A sonic 7 offering of obliterating, sludge/death/grind/doom H-Bombs from ex-ELECTRIC WIZARD brigade, RAMESSES!  Panzertank powered grooves careen through a war torn landscape of growling vocal shrapnel, brief grind air strikes, 70s sniper guitar licks and volatile, rhythmic landmines.  RAMESSES frontline assault is flanked by the battle scarred imagery of veteran visual commander-in-chief Scott Stearns; who adorns both sides of this massacre with his graven, artistic artillery!  Bunker down and prepare for the fight of your life!!

SH24  MIDNIGHT s/t 7"  (collaboration with My Minds Eye Records & Outlaw Recordings)  (333 black, all are gone)

A.
White Hot Fire  
B.
Endless Slut

Two tracks of riff ripping; crust-covered satanic metal from the extreme undergrounds most mysterious entity, Athenar!  This is a chaotic donnybrook harnessing the iron clad fists of VENOM, MOTORHEAD, BOULDER and DISCHARGE, then swinging them relentlessly into a wall of cinderblocks.  With bloody stumps, this behemoth somehow manages to pick up a guitar and throw riffs n solos at you faster than a stealth bomber!  BOULDER alumni Terri Hanchin and Mark Gibbs hammer out flesh searing leads on White Hot Fire.  Essential listening for metal maniacs!      

Recorded by Don Depew at 609 Recording.

SH22  FLESHPRESS s/t CD

1. Rise of the Superior  2. ...All Things Broken   3. Trust No One - Coming Home  4. Jumibian Bongoloid  5. (       )

Reissue of Finland bruisers FLESHPRESS’ debut LP, originally released by Kult of Nihlow in 2002, first time available on CD.  Mind numbing psychedelic sludge is the order of the day and this record finds the band hitting their full stride.  The end result mimics the effect of SLEEP dropping blotter acid with GRIEF!  Lung-scraping screams of rage force their way to the frontlines of an eternal, slow-groove battle for possession of your soul.  The smallest twitch of blues and smoldering space-rock infuses these rotten dirges with nerve frying dynamics.  One of the most underrated sludge/doom juggernauts to ever roam the Earth!

Expanding on the downtrodden gospel preached on Hymns of Slumber, FISTULA rise from the depths with nine skull crushing cuts of swampy sludge!  This is the perfect soundtrack for that last, high-stakes game of Russian roulette.  Idiopathic is a monument celebrating your probable demise.  Hellish riffs, deathbed screams and ten tons of rhythmic weight makes sure you wont be picking up that Bible and trying to reconcile with a higher power before going down in shame.  Sadly, this is the final full length featuring thee classic FISTULA power trio of Bing, Branca & Brittan, but the boys couldn't have gone out on a better note!

FISTULA
2. Hybrid  3. Goatskin  4. Amore De La Gorila

This was originally going to be a 7", but it turned out FISTULA has no concept of time (and how much of it is allotted to a 7"), so we went with this mini 3" CDR format instead.  SKK' s offering would sound great at any wake, especially yours.  As for FISTULA, they crank out a pair of knuckle draggers before they end it with a heartfelt moment, don't drop the soap while playing this one.
