Posted inFear Of God,Interviews,Releaseson July 18th, 2012 by foadmaster2022

As previously announced, the “silence sucks” grind battlefield of the Obscene Extreme Festival has been set as the official release ground of this ageless Noisecore classic, and we did it! From today this is also available via mailorder and we already shipped most of your pre-ordered copies. The limited diehard edition was sold out in a breathe even if we extended it to a few more copies (36 instead of 30) as some extra tshirts and patches surfaced from our ex warehouse. We also added an extra (xeroxed) sheet of the original never-seen-before backcover, hand numbered, to make the bundle even more special and unique. The regular edition consists of a picture disc 7″EP housed in a high glossy laminated gatefold cover with die cut, and includes a replica of the original sticker. It’s limited to 270 copies and you can order it here:

As previously mentioned, this is one of the most vital and important releases in the whole history of whatever you can point as Grindcore, Noisecore and extreme -core. In order to give you a better portrait of how this was conceived and the background that generated such an impressive blast of primordial brutality, we asked a few questions to Erich Keller, the band’s scream-out-lungs voice and also mind behind the Megawimp zine,Good Bad Music blogand the pioneeristic Off The Disk label, that back in the late ’80s brought to light some highly influential HC milestones (INFEST above all). What we got is a dynamic and detailed retrospective not just about FOG but also about many other interesting topics…here we go:Read more »

Posted inBlasfemia,Interviews,Releaseson March 24th, 2011 by Giulio Foad

Second and final part of an interview to Ramon Restrepo by Giulio the Bastard. Besides playing bass and singing inBLASFEMIA, Ramon is the frontman of raging hardcore speed violenceRESTOS DE TRAGEDIA, and singer of total South American black metal pioonersPARABELLUM(1983!!), so shrieky, lewd and horrendous to put Dead-era MAYHEM to pose on the bandwagon of the “corpse paint” sissies….

GTB- What are you currently doing? Are you still active playing music and what is your current musical activity focused on?

Ramon- Currently I alternate between my metal band (Ramónsolo) and the Hardcore unitRestos De Tragedia(RDT). I am working on my boxset discography collection which includes, among others, the CD with my other songs from 1989 that were recovered in 2009 and were not included neither in Parabellum’s or Blasfemia’s discographies. This boxset will also contain a book documenting the story of all the bands I played in. Regarding the other member of Blasfemia, drummerLuisFernando Cano, he did not play with any any other group after Blasfemia, and is now dedicated to his family and profession.Read more »
