I'm Better Than Everyone are manning up and reissuing Eyehategod's fourth album on vinyl sometime in August. We're not sure whether it's going to be any different to the version that came out almost a decade ago, but, hey, any EHG news is good news at the moment.

Servus,

good news is Michael Jackson is dead and the LOSER LIFE - FRIENDS WITH A DEMON LP is finally out on TAKEN BY SURPRISE RECORDS!!

First press are 1000 copies, 800 on black vinyl (mourning the late Farrah Fawcett) and 200 on sick looking silver wax (available only in the TBSR mailorder or from LOSER LIFE on their upcoming European Tour) housed in a massive gatefold jacket with artwork by DEREK ERDMAN (www.derekerdman.com). I can't be happier with how this record came together.

There is a US press available on LIFE'S A RAPE from Bakersfield, CA. I don't know the exact pressing numbers et al. so US punks, skins and distros get in touch with Colin.

Too much grind for any one mind

Selfmadegod Records have taken it upon themselves to release the somewhat ridiculous 'Age Of Vandalism' Cripple Bastards boxset. Out on July 16th, this four-CD package contains remastered versions of all the Bastards’ releases from 1988-1993 and includes hours of unreleased recordings. The damn thing contains a whopping 1,036 songs, so if you think you’re up to the challenge pootle over to the Selfmadegod site for the inevitable preorder.

Relics - We Owe Ourselves This LP

added by Alex Deller on Tuesday June 23 2009 in New Releases

A deafening assault of thundering bass, complex drumming and intricate guitar work, all in a dynamic fury of heaviness and speed that explodes from this Western Mass three piece's first LP release. A follow up to their split 7" with Furnace, this is Relics' first recorded output as a three piece and is not for the faint of heart. Limited pressing of 300 with hand assembled packaging, this vinyl release comes with an MP3 download coupon. 300 Pressed. 100 Green, 200 Black.
