DEATH
Unadulterated disco-not-disco brilliance, undisputed dancefloor juggernaut and surely, SURELY, a summer anthem in the making (OK, so it's an anthem already, but just wait 'til festival season!), "Let's Make Love And Listen To Death From Above" gets another outing after originally being quietly released on Sub Pop back in August 2006. This CD single also includes the baile funk remix from fellow Sao Paulo residents Bonde Do Role (originally on the Sub Pop 12" import).
"Till Death Do Us Party" explodes out of the package with eight tight, fresh tracks sure to shake up dance parties, boom boxes, car stereos and basement shows across the land. Full of hope, heat, and a sense of urgency, the songs offer a vision of the world where pleasure and politics are one in the same. In the universe of Pony Pants, radical bedroom romps, volatile social disobedience, and courageous utopian dreams occupy the same plane of resistance and deviance. Pony Pants has shared he stage with such acts as Parts & Labor, Veronica Lipgloss & the Evil Eyes, Hott Beat, nO things, Fur Cups For Teeth, Genghis Tron, Shellshag, and Rah Brahs. RIYL Le Tigre, Erase Errata and Numbers.
Debut EP from this Manchester based five piece who've been peddling their own brand of dandy-rock across the city since the start of 2006. The EP features four tracks: the title track is an insight into the chaos of a band hurtling towards destruction, "Preensters" rails against the shallowness and desperation of figures that writhe in the darkness around them, "Leaving Soon" is a heartfelt plea from a character who is trapped in the daily grind of 9 to 5, and the EP finishes with the leftfield pop of "(My Girlfriend Is Like A) Trojan Horse".

This CDEP features two great hardcore bands from their own respective sides of the US. Death Threat are a hardcore band from Connecticut who have toured with Agnostic Front, Hatebreed and others.

Vocals that drip acid, guitar and drums that bludgeon the listener into submission - Engrave are back with a new album that creates an aural Hell on Earth! A hybrid of hectic breaks, mania beats and noise attacks exploding from each song combined with innovation and technical skill like that found in bands like Converge, Cave In, Botch or Grade.
Slapshot are one of the best bands to emerge from the hardcore scene around Boston, and "Sudden Death Overtime" is one of the albums that affirmed their position. These guys know how to play (listen to their heavy version of the Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit" for proof) and are suprisingly melodic at times. Features two extra live tracks.
Larry Wallis ex of the classic period Pink Fairies returns with a guitar driven album with tracks dwelling on sci-fi, The Fairies, hippies and tribal gatherings, with Mick Farren supplying some of the lyrics. Larry Wallis was once described as 'like Hank Marvin on acid' and this album amply supports this theory. Also included is a rerecording of his classic "I'm A Police Car" where he really lets loose for nearly eight minutes.
"Death Is Infinite" shows Himsa have progressed into an original metal-hybrid band that has it's roots firmly planted in the hardcore scene. The combination of speed and technical precision in their music leads to mind-numbing changes and hints of harmonic thrash metal not seen before from a band in this genre.
