THE LOWEST FORM & WARTHOG out right now!
Good evening,
Are you tired of having the same corny cobs for every meal? Well, get fresh and pick your teeth with these...
THE LOWEST FORM - Negative Ecstasy LP w/ download (LUNGS-049)
A swirling, nasty hardcore punk record by one of Britain's finest ensembles. Negative Ecstasy takes the listener (that would be you, duh) through an aural obstacle course of thuggish pounding and piercing feedback wash. Get dirty. Where would we all be without a couple fuzz pedals? Probably listening to Vivaldi or something refined. No thanks. "I want to bash my brains out, bleed all over your drugs and watch you smoke 'em up as I drift off to the inevitable. THE LOWEST FORM is it, bruv." -Martin Ken
WARTHOG - Prison 7" w/ download (LUNGS-051)
It blows my mind that a single person, let alone a group of people, is able to get anything done in New York City. It's a non-stop claustrophobic hustle. You gotta fight just to get to the train that will probably be delayed and covered in a stranger's blood. Isn't everyone a stranger? Maybe it is that very environment that influences some of the best music of the Americas. It would certainly explain WARTHOG's brutish hardcore punk wildness. Our boys are gearing up to hurt some people. Get mean.
Recorded and mastered at the same sessions as the Exterminate Me 7" on Katorga Works.
These, as well as many other perfect IRON LUNG RECORDS concerns can be obtained at ironlungrecords.bigcartel.com
For the European folks we are happy to announce that, in a very short time, some of our releases will be available through lavidaesunmus.com
Thank you for being you.

TOTAL CONTROL - 'Flesh War' single from Typical System!!!
-->
TOTAL CONTROL ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM TYPICAL
SYSTEM
OUT JUNE 24TH ON IRON LUNG RECORDS
HEAR NEW SONG “FLESH WAR” HERE

Finally, a new deep cut from Melbourne’s visceral post-punk band Total
Control. Typical System, their second LP, was written, recorded, created
over the past two years and is set for US/Worldwide release via Iron Lung
Records on June 24th and self-release in Australia/New Zealand on
June 20th.
LISTEN TO “FLESH WAR” ON BANDCAMP
HERE
Total Control emerged from Australia’s dynamic punk scene in ’08,
releasing a succession of 7”s that developed from an aggressive post-punk band
sound to studio forays into electronic forms from minimal wave to house. Their debut LP, Henge Beat, was commended as one of the few records released in
2011 that evaded the ease of classification and competent tribute act status of
most modern bands.
Subsequently, they have released three very different records: a split
12” with Thee Oh Sees, a 7” single on Sub Pop and a house remix 12”. Typical System develops on the incongruent
demands of their debut LP and ensuing releases, a further development on their
continually evolving sound.
