DISTRO UPDATE

108 - A New Beat From A Dead Heart LP (Deatwish) - 10 Euro
No one can deny that fake fashion posturing and lifeless clone music are on the verge of killing heavy music. On an undeniable rampage, 108 is shocking listeners back to consciousness and getting them thinking again, feeling again, and banging their heads in defiance at the near-death of heavy music with message. Their first proper studio album in over a decade, "A New Beat From A Dead Heart" was recorded and engineered by Kurt Ballou (Converge) at Godcity Studios.
86 Mentality – Final Exit EP (Deranged) - 4 Euro
On their third 7", DC's 86 Mentality play another six tracks of oi/street punk inspired hardcore that takes cues from bands like New York hardcore alumni Life's Blood and local DC legends Iron Cross.
Allegiance - Desperation LP / CD (Rivalry) - 10 / 12 Euro
With its sophomore full-length, "Desperation," Allegiance has tossed much of its youthful idealism aside and embraced a stripped down, bare bones, all-out attack on the listener instead. The album embodies the weight of frustration that comes from giving everything you've got, only to be left with an unsatisfying vacuous feeling of what to do next.
Ambitions - Exile EP (Bridge 9) - 4 Euro
Ambitions is a band that's hard to define, with influences ranging from Quicksand and Fugazi to Bad Religion and Face to Face, you hear strong roots in hardcore, but a unique sound that is all their own.

"There's not much to say about Blacklisted that hasn't already been said. Uncompromising. Thick-skinned. Honest. Real. This seven song limited live EP features one of the best in the only form that can give you an accurate picture of what this band's about, the live show."
Bored to Death - Self-titled EP (Sorry State) - 4 Euro
Hailing from Sapporo, Japan, Bored To Death named themselves from a song off Government Issue's "Legless Bull" EP and seem as if they would fit right in with Dischord Records' early singles with these eight tracks of fast hardcore punk.

Back with their debut full-length, Richmond, VA's Bracewar keep to their formula of modern, moshy hardcore played at great speed, much like Outbreak, but this time around adding a little more mid-tempo punch, while still managing to harness the intensity of their EP.

With roots in both Connecticut and Boston, Living Hell debuted in 2006 with 'Pavor Nocturnis.' A dark and grizzled EP, 'Pavor Nocturnis' resonates influences from the heavier side of hardcore, a metallic approach that calls to mind bands like Judge, Integrity and Ringworm.

Pissed Jeans - Hope For Men LP (Sub Pop) - 12 Euro
After much ado, the debut Sub Pop full-length from Allentown, PA's Pissed Jeans is set to go, with ten songs of dirty low-fi punk that takes the most vile aspects of bands like The Jesus Lizard and Flipper to create their own mix of volatility and humor.

Poison Control - Violent Years EP (Deranged) - 4 Euro
"The Violent Years" 7" is Poison Control's first and, in all likelihood, their last release due to this Boston band already calling it quits. Featuring ex-Cut The Shit members, they play solid mid-tempo US hardcore with a serious Regulations and early Southern California feel.
Pressure - Death's Head EP (6131) - 4 Euro
After releasing the critically acclaimed 'Beasts' EP last year, Pressure had a lot to live up to with their follow-up release. 'Death's Head' features two new original songs of riff driven hardcore and an amazing cover of Bad Brains' 'Pay To Cum' which more than lives up to expectations.

After releasing two crushing albums, including the highly praised 'Into Oblivion' album (Deathwish Inc./Reflections 2005), Rise And Fall have returned with 'Clawing,' their new three song EP on Deathwish Inc.

Soul Control - Involution LP / CD (Rivalry) - 10 / 12 Euro
Drawing influences from bands such as Burn, Bane, Quicksand, 108 and Into Another, Soul Control breathes fire back into a long-dormant style of hardcore. Lyrically, the album concentrates on self-evaluation, introspection and taking a deeper look at what composes the self.

For fans of Regulations and Insurgent Kid. Think of Black Flag, Circel Jerks and Decendents.
Total Abuse – Sex Pig EP (Deranged) - 4 Euro
The first vinyl offering by ex-Snobs will not disappoint. Their demo made some waves and these new tracks step it up a notch; just as raw and fast but way more controlled. Basic primal HC with loads of speed and hooks that's been compared to a mix of DRI and early Boston HC like Deep Wound.
