Sickener/KarnalxBunt split demos and "Ear Bleeding Noise Massacre" comp cassettes should be ready by this weekend-tapes are enroute at the minute, just need to assemble covers and inserts. Should have a big cartel up and running by this weekend too.
We recorded with Ciaran Parnell last weekend too: in the next few months we'll be releasing; a split cassette with DESIRE from Indonesia (on Zombie Attack Records from Sweden), split 7" with ESTEL (self-release by both bands), split 7" with CSMD from Holland (on Deathbiter/No Fucking Labels) and split 7" with WoTH.
In February we'll be touring the UK with Toecutter (feat members of Diet Pills) and Ireland with FUBAR (Holl).
That is all.

So, due to the delay with the tapes, I decided to put the demo tracks online for the time being. They're currently streaming on our Bandcamp here.
Cheers to everyone who turned up to FILTHFEST last weekend, and to Underground Movement, Demented and xSteox for organising it. If anyone has any photos of us from the weekend, let us know! A review of the weekend's madness, by our friend Jonathan Keane, can be found here.

New Band Interview For Profane Existence Magazine
(*****Interview conducted by Sean Fitzgerald via email*****)
Location:
Dublin, Ireland.
Members / Instruments:
Fitzgerald
Redmond
Ó Claonadh
Ó Briain
What are your songs about?
The pain of constant living, basically.
Depression, negativity, self-hate and the
stresses and strains of everyday life in this
poxy fuckin’ city.
What drives you to write music?
Negativity. Having jobs/bosses that we
hate. Having your efforts and achievements
sneered at and derided. The state this
country is in at the minute due to the
actions of a small few. The long dynasty
of corruption and cronyism that not only
permeated Irish politics since the dawn
of the state but infests almost all aspects
of everyday life! There exists a culture in
Ireland (and perhaps the rest of the world)
where mediocrity is celebrated and any
attempts to break with the culture of apathy
and ignorance is met with scorn. Ireland is
a country where banality is enforced as an
identity. The general frustration surrounding
this and life in general in Dublin City.
What do you feel sets your band apart
from others?
Although we’re essentially a Powerviolence
band, we tend to float between genres
somewhat, and we seem to have
accidentally stumbled across a ridiculously
low-end sound to boot. That and a love
of BLACK SABBATH and Doom Metal in
general! The vocal style isn’t the traditional
PV style either. We are fans of death, thrash
and black metal so the caustic grating vocal
styles that are cornerstones of those genres
were a big influence.
What have you put out?
At present we’ve nothing released aside
from a track on CVLT Nation’s downloadonly
“Underground Irish Mixtape.” We
recorded in March for a split demo with
the band our vocalist used to drum for,
KARNALxBUNT and a track for a grindcore/
noisegrind compilation I’m putting out called
“Ear Bleeding Noise Massacre,” both of
which will be out mid-June.
Future plans?
We have a few months’ break between
gigs, which we’re going to use to write for a
couple more releases we have in the works:
In League With C10 10 minute cassette,
a split 7” with CSMD which will be a corelease
between Deathbiter Cassettes and
Vinyl and No Fuckin’ Labels and hopefully a
split 7” with Mental Funeral Doom stalwarts
Wreck Of The Hesperus.
