You tasteful s.o.b.'s now have the opportunity to dull your senses with the hype street sounds of WHITE WARDS, GAS CHAMBER and NUDES. Iron Lung Records provides here:
WHITE WARDS - Cigarette Burns LP w/download (LUNGS-044)
Continuing in Olympia's tradition of haphazard mangling, WHITE WARDS have finally managed to record a proper LP and it is one mean motherfucker. It's a gritty, nasty Mecht Mensch doing push ups in the Jan's Rooms basement. US hardcore played the way it ought to be. Ugly.
700 copies will grace the planet packaged in high quality materials made in the United States of America. Some on white vinyl, the rest on standard. Art and sounds by Jake Dudley.
GAS CHAMBER - Hemorrhaging Light LP + Flexi w/ download (LUNGS-054)
Buffalo hardcore has always made a significant yet largely misunderstood contribution to the furthering of musical mastery. And "Hemorrhaging Light" is no exception. With the same 7 notes that everyone else uses, GAS CHAMBER have managed to completely turn mere punk music into a tense, trans-formative journey. Very rarely in punk do we get to have a complete life shift in the space of one album. This is incredible music.
500 copies on black vinyl housed in a heavy duty reverse board jacket with a bonus flexi disc. Sounds by John Angelo. Art by Craig Sheperd.
NUDES - Stain 7" w/ download (LUNGS-057)
Get grimy and low to sensationally uncomfortable hardcore punk music. NUDES lives beneath the street. NUDES is that dirt you swept under the rug. Well guess what, that shit doesn't go away. It disperses and envelops. Sooner or later your life will be nothing but dirt. It's all you'll be able to hear and think on. NUDES loves you. NUDES wants you in their world, under their rug, enthralled and crawling.
"Stain" comes packaged in a big foldout poster sleeve along with a digital download that includes the band-made video for "Bleach Stains". All on black vinyl. Sounds by Dave Harvey. Art by Maryjane Dunphe.
SHOP SHOP SHOP (buy things in the) (and yes that is 1 of 108 NEEDLES 7"s on green/black marble.
Coming very soon (like next week): GAG - Locker Room 7", FLESH WORLD - A Line In Wet Grass 7" and a S.H.I.T. repress on fancy vinyl.
