STEEL04 Suburban Lockdown "Locked In" CD $8.20
The first full-length from Orlando, FL's Suburban Lockdown, before
the Durty Mick album, "Locked In" is fifteen songs of short, sharp
shocks of speed, aggression, and melody, centered around themes of
working-class frustration, everyday life, and punk rock 'n' roll
mayhem. Steel Capped Records.

LFR074 War From A Harlot's Mouth "Transmetropolitan" CD $11.40
German metalcore masters War From A Harlot's Mouth follow up their
split with Molotov Solution on Twelve Gauge with this debut LP,
playing a mix of technical mathcore, grindcore, hardcore and
throwing in a pinch of jazz. The crew has played shows and festivals
relentlessly across Europe alongside the likes of Dying Fetus,
Cattle Decapitation, Ion Dissonance, Cephalic Carnage, The Red Chord
and more. Lifeforce Records.

LOIR34 Zolof The Rock & Roll Destroyer "Schematics" CD $11.95
After a collaboration with Reel Big Fish, Zolof The Rock And Roll
Destroyer went right back into the studio to record these ten tracks
of light, fluffy pop rock with plenty of keyboards and female
vocals, bringing to mind bands like Weezer and All-American Rejects.
Reignition Recordings / Law Of Inertia.

NEW FROM ARMAGEDDON LABEL

ARMA02 Dropdead "s/t (1993)" LP - Color Vinyl $13.80 / CD $9.80
Influenced by the old Japanese, European, and some US hardcore. An
extreme mix of fast and mid-paced parts with angry vocals and
personal/political lyrics. Limited edition, tour-only pressing with
a hand-screened cover now available. Armageddon Label.

ARMA01 Dropdead "s/t (1998)" LP - Color Vinyl $13.80 / CD $9.80
18 songs in a decidedly more Swedish HC vein, but with the usual odd
breaks and fast parts throughout. More melodic than the first LP in
some ways, and noisier in others. Limited edition, tour-only
pressing with a hand-screened cover now available. Armageddon
Label.

ARMA03 Dropdead "Discography 1991-1993" Color LP $13.80 / CD $9.80

NEW FROM DOUBLE OR NOTHING RECORDS

DOUB013 Fight Like Hell "Rabid As Wolves: Letters From The Dead" CD $12.65
Now remastered and reissued with four previously unreleased songs!
Relentlessly brutal, but backing an urgent message of positivity and
self-improvement, Fight Like Hell is one of the forerunners of
hardcore in the Mile High City. Their songs combine the fury and
tradition of streetwise, mid-'90s hardcore with the speed and energy
of classic bands like the Cro-Mags, all while maintaining a
contemporary edge and sensibility. The boys spent much of 2005 and
2006 playing shows and touring alongside the likes of Ignite,
Madball, Blacklisted and Hatebreed. Double Or Nothing Records.

DOUB012 Under One Flag "Red" CD $12.65
With a no frills, abrasive approach to traditional hardcore, Under
One Flag has single-handedly put their hometown of Columbus, Ohio
back on the map. With vicious live shows and a rabid fan base, Under
One Flag quickly set their sights on the rest of the world. Past
tours alongside such bands as Casey Jones, Palehorse, Die Young,
Know The Score and Will To Live have proved that Under One Flag is a
force to be reckoned with in the hardcore scene. Double Or Nothing
Records.

NEW FROM MUSIC VIDEO DISTRIBUTORS

MVD1026 Shelter "Beyond Planet Earth" CD $16.90
On their second full-length for Roadrunner, Shelter took a different
approach to the music of this record, incorporating more pop sounds
to their hardcore and post-hardcore sound. "Beyond Planet Earth"
continues the band's tradition in spirituality and musical progress.

and 1 video) and is a numbered limited edition of 2,000. Music
Video Distributors.

MVD1025 Shelter "Mantra" CD $16.90
In 1995, Shelter, fronted by Youth Of Today's charismatic Ray Cappo,
released their first album for the major label Roadrunner Records
entitled "Mantra." The record's artwork announced the band's strong
return to their Krishna roots. Indeed, songs like "Message To The
Bhagvat" come directly from this source. This reissue is digitally
remastered and contains 3 bonus tracks (2 audio, including a cover
of the Beatles "We Can Work It Out" and 1 video). Digipack is a
limited, numbered edition of 2,000. Music Video Distributors.

NEW FROM SEVENTH DAGGER RECORDS

SDAG013 The World We Knew "Exordium" CD $9.80
Over the last three years, Long Island, NY's The World We Knew
blurred the lines between hardcore, Scandinavian metal and grind,
incorporating elements of brutality, melody, speed and technicality
into their formula. This sound, coupled with a straight edge
philosophy, garnered them national attention and allowed them to
play shows alongside bands like Bleeding Through, Darkest Hour,
Through The Eyes of the Dead, The Warriors and many more. Seventh
Dagger Records.

SDAG012 The Wrath "Overcoming Failure" CDep $8.20
Salinas/San Francisco, CA's The Wrath follow up their CD on High
Fidelity Records with a five track EP, this time on Seventh Dagger,
and heavier and better-produced than previous efforts, with the band
working with Scott Crouse of Earth Crisis and Path Of Resistance
fame. They retained their straight edge convictions and express them
over heavy hardcore, not unlike that of bands like Hatebreed and
Full Blown Chaos. Seventh Dagger Records.

The Final Beatdown is the complete discography from the originators
of "Beatdown-Style" hardcore. It contains their demo, 7" and both
"New York's Hardest" compilation tracks and is 10 studio tracks in
all plus a complete live set from 1995 at The Wetlands in NYC, all

Laboratories.

TRIPM08 Robots And Empire "Omnivore" CD $9.80
Formed from the ashes of local heroes When Dreams Die and Drowning
Room, Poughkeepsie, NY's Robots And Empire bring a spaced out style

down sound that is influenced by bands like Failure, later-era Cave
In, Hum and Quicksand. Trip Machine Laboratories.

NEW FROM VICTORY RECORDS

VIC351 Between The Buried And Me "Colors" CD $11.40
"Colors" is North Carolina's Between The Buried And Me's fifth

Than Jake, The Offspring, Catch 22 and more. They will hit the road
after the release of "Southern California Street Music" with Hellcat
Records' Left Alone and Hopeless' Mustard Plug. Victory Records.
