Posted in Ediondo, Janky, Kagada De Perro, Military Shadow, Releases on April 5th, 2024 by foadmaster2022

F.O.A.D.’s production chain is unstoppable, and after a few months kept at the rate of 4 releases at a time, we increase further and attack you with a new round of no less than 5 vinyl threats!! For this batch there is no thematic common threads as we usually do, we have 4 different countries and far apart eras–from 1983 to the present day. What may be kind of the common point of it all is that it is raw and uncompromising hardcore, ranging from the more primitive and crude approach of KAGADA DE PERRO to the more metallic and apocalyptic moods of Tokyo’s MILITARY SHADOW.  We have two Latin American bands – Mexico’s KAGADA DE PERRO and Chile’s EDIÖNDÖ, two Japanese – MILITARY SHADOW and the extended reissue of the legendary JANKY, and dulcis in fundo a fantastic compilation from the former Yugoslavia: “BUKA I URLIK (1983)” featuring NECROPHILIA, HERPES DISTRESS and SOLUNSKI FRONT. So to get straight to the point.. a very international month spanning 4 decades and offering you the following gems: JANKY “Dead society 1983-1987” LP+CD (new edition), MILITARY SHADOW “The age of cobalt bomb” LP, V.A. “BUKA I URLIK (1983)” LP+CD, EDIÖNDÖ “Toxic love” LP and KAGADA DE PERRO “Victimas de horror” LP.

They’re all available on preorder via www.scareystore.com  As is now customary, we are also treating you with a heavily discounted bundle so that you can buy the diehard versions of everything in bulk and save a lot! Act fast because this is a short-timed offer that will expire on the release date (April 20) if not sooner.  What else to add? This month we’re attending the Mega Record & CD fair in Den Bosch, Holland, an unmissable event for us since over 10 years. You can find us in our usual double booth at number 128, and of course we will premiere these 5 brand new monsters right there, so if you attend the fair and want to grab them, come to visit us!  Finally a small request that we don’t get tired of repeating every time: as you can see we’re in a very busy month, 5 releases in a row, the fair in Holland that sees all our staff away for several days. Don’t bomb us with requests during the pre-order phase, especially unnecessary things like substitutions or additions of items, changes of address or second thoughts of any kind… these are dynamics that slow us down a lot, generate stress and don’t allow us to process shipments with our usual fast and well-organized flow. Thanks!
