First - I still need to get in touch with Brandon from Brandon FL - email me at architeuthis@comcast.net -
about your order - I can't read your address at all.
Next, the good news is that both the Resurrectionists LP and the Positive
Noise/Xtra Vomit 7"s are in and all finished. They're $11/$3 with an order or $14/$5 ppd. I can't trade the Resurrectionists LP
right now, since I'm getting copies slowly and need them for mailorder. The Positive Noise/Xtra Vomit 7"s are up for trade though
and they rip. Check the Releases section for better descriptions of both records.
Upcoming records - I will be co-releasing the Drainland LP - ugly HC from Ireland, co-releasing the Xtra Vomit/Tropiezo split 7" - MI
grinding anger vs. Puerto Rican fast punk. I'll also be co-releasing an LP from Cloud Rat from MI - very intense HC like a grindier
more crust influence Cursed with shuddering vocals. Very good stuff. The Panzram and Autarkeia 10"s are in the lineup, but it
will be a month or more before they are even recorded, so no dates on those. I've also got a few little things up my sleeve.
Merkit will be touring Europe again this summer from June 18th to July 4th - we'll be at Trashfest, Cry Me a River Fest and shows
all across Germany, Czech Repupblic, Netherlands, and Belgium. Come say hi.
I'm still buying collections of records - get in touch and I'll make an offer.
Peace, Nevin
One quick note - I got a mailorder from Brandon, living in Brandon FL about 2 weeks ago - if anyone knows him
please tell him to contact me. There was black ink all over the return address of the letter and I can't read the address, and
it's not written on the inside of the letter either. Please let him know I'm not ripping him off, I just can't read the address.
Also, Brandon if you read this, I'm out of the Zann - Desert LP (someone bought it just before your letter came in), but do have
copies of the Zann/Burial Year LP if that's a cool replacement. architeuthis@comcast.net
Just a few bits of news - the Resurrectionists LP is done and is on the way. Should be another 2 weeks in the
mail, so I'll send out an email when it arrives. The Positive Noise/Xtra Vomit split 7" is at the pressing plant - lets say 3 weeks
on that one since the covers aren't done yet either. It sounds great - crushing sides from both. The next two releases
planned are a Panzram 10" and an Autarkeia 10". Autarkeia is my new band w/ Robbie from Jiyuna, John from Merkit, and Aysia from
Raytown. It's kinda epic/sad/venomous stuff.
In other news, I've started doing the consignment thing. I'll be carrying 2 labels so far - React With Protest from Germany (www.reactwithprotest.org)
and Where's that Deerhead? from Montreal (www.wheresthatdeerhead.likeweeds.org). Let me know if you'd like me to carry your stuff
and I'll let you know what I can take.
And remember I like to buy used collections, so if you've got records to drop, let me know and I'll make an offer.
So it looks like I tend to update the news every 5-6 months. PLEASE NOTE
that the distro is updated with every order that goes out or new record that comes in, so its
always up to date. Anyway, in label news, I should have the Resurrectionists LP out in a month
or maybe sooner. It's being pressed in Germany and is co-released with Parade of Spectres
and Moment of Collapse and maybe an Israeli label. Maybe you heard the Resurrectionists split
with Merkit - if not it's German beast stuff just like you'd expect - swirling wild guitars
pummeling blast beat ridden drumming, and multiple vocalist mania. Overpowering in the great
German tradition. More when it comes out. It may cost a little more than my usual releases
due to the shipping from Germany and all. I have 2 other 7" things in the maybe happening
category, but they're not definite. If you want to sell your collection of records or
distro, get in touch. I'm always buying good records, and I'll give you the best price I can.
Peace, Nevin
The Merkit/Resurrectionists split 7" is out at last. I finally
updated the releases section of the site, so you can see it there. Also, as always lots
of new trades/used stuff/buys in the distro.
In other distro news, I finally figured
out how Paypal charges fees. They charge me %2.9 plus $.30 for each transaction. From
now on, I'll be charging exactly this amount if you want to use paypal. I prefer cash/check/MO
which is cheaper for you and doesn't give jerky companies money.
In distro news - If you've been getting the email updates from me, I usually attach a list
of random records I have in stock but aren't on the website. Those are usually collections
I get and don't want to describe each one and make a sticker for it in the distro bins and type
them up on the website. I'm going to put everything on the site in the next week, but it
just won't all have a description. I just haven't been able to keep up with all the
describing and stickering. Things have grown more than I thought they would and that's just
something I'll have to not do to every single copy record that I get in. Most of the
trades or records I get multiple copies will still have a description on them.
Lastly, if anyone is selling collections or lots of records, just type them up and send me a
list. I'll try to make an offer, and I try to offer as much as possible while still being
confident of making the money back plus a little more to release records with.
Peace, Nevin
