The new album from Ken Mode is available as a 2xLP on three different vinyl colors. Relapse in North America has them all at the moment, and if you are a fan of furious, hardcore-fueled metal, you should pick at least one of them up. Entrench on black, green or orange vinyl at relapse.com. Tweet

The early works of Converge (recordings from 1991 – 1994) are now available on vinyl. This is $25 from bluecollardistro.com and worth every penny, obviously. Tweet

Based on their last few releases, Southern Lord seems intent on redefining itself as the go-to label for blackened, crusty, d-beat hardcore. This is the label that pretty much jettisoned black metal and doom into the spotlight (for North American hipsters at least) so it’s pretty fantastic to see them continuing to expand the depth [...]

We are really digging everything this band is putting out right now. Following up on their Caged/Sick Punk 7″ we wrote up a couple weeks ago, we’ve caught wind of this LP that collects their first three EPs and a pair of songs from other, early releases. You could try to track those releases down, [...]

Don’t know a lot about this band other than that I love this track and their lead singer makes male pattern baldness and mustaches look fucking hardcore (proof). A tip of the hat to invisibleoranges.com. Go order yours for £4 from lavidaesunmus.com. 1/26/2013 UPDATE: Thanks to a tip from our readers, we can now point you [...]

Let’s jump right into Tape Tuesday with this cassette edition of the recent full length effort from the noisy French hardcore unit Sofy Major. We were sent this double LP last year by the label that released it, and the raging metallic din completely blew us away. If you’d prefer a more micro-sized version, then [...]

If you haven’t bought your first record of the year yet, there’s no use waiting around for something better to come along. Converge is as good as it gets, and this collection of rare early material from the band has been out of print for years. Remixed and remastered by Kurt Ballou, available on three [...]

Brutal Panda has reissued this rock n roll masterpiece from Northwest headbangers Harkonen on the vinyl format for a whole new generation of kids lookin to get psyched. Dudes from this band went on to play in These Arms Are Snakes and Helms Alee and you can hear the frenetic yet focused energy of those [...]

It seems like every great rock group must release their rock opera. A defining moment for any band worth their salt; this band’s version is sure to be, well, fucked up. Guitars, hardcore, blood, nude stagedives and more guitars… if you have not come around to loving this band yet – I’d say it’s about [...]
