BBMA166.6 A special “10 Years Anniversary Edition” of Statements long sold out Kill Mode 7″ EP.
Originally released via Rat’s own Bloodless Records in early 2015: https://bloodless2.bandcamp.com/album/kill-mode
Statement have been THE name in vegan straight edge (hardline) metal in the 90’s, but then went quiet after their Split with Tears of Gaia & Extinguish in 2003.
This 7″ marked their “comeback” in 2014/2015 and showcased that even after 30 years (Statement was founded in 1984) they’re still No.1 in Vegan Metal.
Another 10 years later, we re-surfaced the “overpress” of the original 7″ Pressing and decided to re-label those as a “10 Years Anniversary Edition”.
So, here’s your last chance to get this piece of history on wax!
A percentage of the sales will be donated to https://www.huntsabs.org.uk/

1st Press/34: handnumbered records with re-imagined cover layout and labels.

BBMA163 The first official vinyl (re-)release of the legendary UK Vegan Straight Edge veterans ’95 demo & ’97 Sure Hand Records EP. This “album” combines specifically for this purpose re-mastered versions of the two very first recordings of Withdrawn (even with the addition of a short bonus track). Don’t sleep on this piece of history! Withdrawn (later re-named to Evanesce) is defunct since the mid ’00s, but their legend still lives on as members went on to play in bands like Slavearc, Unborn, Coughin’ Vicars, Salem Rages, Walk The Plank, Sheer Attack, SSS, Koreisch, Tunnage, Blood Green, Vorhees, Steadfast, Sick Fuckin O, Night Stalker, Meatlocker, Knockdown, …and probably many more 😉

BBMA157 the debut full-length by Belgiums hardest Edge-Metal outfit xINVICTUSx.
The last remaining edgemetal act from Belgium brings forth ‘Despair’. This nine-song blistering attack delves into this rotting world. Melodic yet raw, INVICTUS presents a manifesto of humanity’s uncertain path – an unpleasant exploration of the brutal hypocrisy, social indifference and inhumanity of mankind. Resulting in a grim world filled with emptiness, desolation and even suicide.
With entwining bursts of spitting blackness and haunting melodies, this latest offering from INVICTUS draws as much inspiration from a certain melodic death metal scene in Gothenburg as it does from the northern chilling winds of darkened thrones and dissected storms.

1st Press/300 with 100 copies on yellow swirl, 100 on green swirl & 100 on clear swirl.

This is a co-release with: Genet Records (Be), In My Heart Empire (Es) & x24x Edgewear (Be)
