Cobretti & more at AZ Köln Kalk tomorrow Wed. 16th

Another fine show
put together by the fine folks of Hit&Run
and Kraake Konzerte
at a fine location aka the AZ Köln Kalk.
More info on the fb-event-page.

We do have one exclusive info for you though. Sandblaster Distro will be attending and we'll be bringing a few collectible out of print records that are not listed on the Distro page and probably will never make it onto it as we're right in the middle of putting something new together that will smoothen out your shopping experience a lot. Also there will be some extra special stuff only for you folks. Stay tuned and in the meanwhile get your asses out here tomorrow!!

One - Two - Get Lewd

Check out the info on the upcoming LEWD ACTS euro-tour I stole from Deathwish inc.:

Though it's been rumored for awhile now it seems that Lewd Acts have been officially reactivated. After releasing the brilliant "Black Eyed Blues" album in 2009, the band abruptly went on hiatus while on tour in 2010. Since then, Lewd Acts members have been active in bands Loma Prieta, Griever, and more.

Here are the latest dates, more coming soon:

08/03: Hasselt, Belgium @ Muziekodroom
08/05: Port, UK @ Hevy Festival
08/08: Vienna, Austria @ Venster
08/11: Berlin, Germany @ K19

Maybe we get a little more of the below, haha. Well, I saw them 2 times on their break-up tour through europe in 2010  and was pretty impressed by the energy they put into their live-set. The music is intense as it is but combined with their on stage ferocity it definitely is something you don't wanna miss.

Get into it!!

Black Widow

Is the title of the new BURNING LOVE 2 song 7" out on High Anxiety Records. More info here.
Available at your favorite vinyl dealer. Stream the b-side song on Brooklyn Vegan.

The song "Hateful comforts" form their upcoming LP "Rotten thing to say" is available for your listening pleasure on Alternative Press.
Stay on the lookout for its release on Southern Lord Records and meanwhile go see them live if you can. For now I only know about these North American dates but I think I heard something about a euro tour.

Hang 'em if they're high in europe

Chicago Vegan Straight Edge band Noose are starting their euro tour soon. If you don't already know their two 7"es on React! Records you should definitely check out their tunes and the blog. Total early Boston rager. Fast, aggressive and uncompromising. What more could you ask for?
If you can you should go see them. I would so like to see them play but unfortunately they tour a circle with a radius of about 500km around my hometown. Major Bummer!!!


Just in time for their tour the new 7" "Depraved indifference" on Refuse Records will be ready but you can already pre-order from refuserecords@gmail.com and all you collector nerds can look forward to a special tour edition of their "The war of all against all" 7"on React! next to the special tour edition of the new platter.

Here you can read what Refuse Records had to say about the tour and 7" on another blog

Support that shit! It's crucial and you know it!!

Give + No Tolerance Tour

You must be living under a rock if you don't already know GIVE. It already took me a while to check them out but I'm glad that I did. I'm not the biggest fan of Revolution Summer Era DC Hardcore but this band really does a great Job incorporating that style into their own sound. So thank you Trapdoor-Tourz for working on their euro-tour. At the moment I can't find any official info on confirmed dates but word on the street is that they will be playing Bremen, Germany on Sept. 22nd and Münster, Germany on Sept. 23rd. Rumor also has it that they will bring No Tolerance with them. They have a 7" out on Youngblood Records that's heavily influenced by early Boston Hardcore. And I also hear some Confront in there. You can't go wrong with that.
Keep your eyes peeled
