Posted in Cripple Bastards, Mindrot, Psykoosi, Rupture on October 20th, 2025 by foadmaster2022

Another month of atrocious F.O.A.D. sonicrimes is in the books! The radical switch we made from a September all focused on Japanese metal to an October dedicated to extremism tout court with four releases spanning fast hardcore, crust and grind was met with great success. Thanks to everyone who supported us preordering them. As always, we are perfectly on schedule, so all pre-orders have already been shipped and most of the B2Bs have been sent to our usual distributors around the globe. You know who they are, so if you usually buy from them, you can expect them to receive these titles shortly.

So to sum up: MINDROT “Demo 1990” LP, RUPTURE “Baser apers years” gatefold LP, CRIPPLE BASTARDS “Misantropo a senso unico – 25 anniversary edition” gatefold LP+CD, and PSYKOOSI “Our so called future” LP on F.O.A.D. Records are all out now. There are very few copies left of the diehard splatter vinyl versions, we will leave the bundle available for a few more days for those who want to buy them all at a discounted price, don’t sleep on it! Next month will be truly special, with again 4 releases: an ultra-iconic name in British hardcore, an incredible rarity from the furious years of Italian hardcore punk, and two great surprises from the Yugoslavian underground of the 80s. Stay tuned!

More details about this month’s apocalyptic four:

MINDROT “Demo 1990” LP (F.O.A.D. 396)
For the first time ever, Mindrot’s 1990 demo is finally available on vinyl!

A perfectly balanced mix of crust and doom metal with some unexpected evocative interludes, this demo is the desperate soundtrack for a decaying world. Ten songs of utterly ferocious apocalyptic music for fans of Dystopia, Winter, Deviated Instinct, Bolt Thrower and Amebix! LP with insert including lyrics and photos/flyers from that period.

Posted in Cripple Bastards, Mindrot, Psykoosi, Rupture on October 3rd, 2025 by foadmaster2022

One of F.O.A.D.’s best-known strategies is that our release schedule jumps from different musical genres with a versatility that very few underground labels have. And this time, the change is totally radical: last month we delighted you with classic Japanese heavy metal, at times more doom and at times more thrash oriented, now everything is taken to the extreme with an October entirely dedicated to hyper-fast hardcore, grindcore, crust and the like.  It’s difficult to put what we’re about to announce in order of priority, but probably the most eagerly awaited release is the LP reissue of the 1990 demo by Californian heavyweights MINDROT, on vinyl for the first time! A true monument of apocalyptic doom/crust in the unique style and mood of that band and that specific period.  Then, still from the early 90’s, one of our favorite bands: the Aussie potheads RUPTURE! Their “Baser apes” EP on Slap A Ham Records remains one of their most iconic, deranged and schizoid outputs.  Finally, here’s the expanded reissue with the remastered original mix on side A and the “Righteous apes” mix on side B, with a Negative Approach cover as a bonus.  Then a big celebration at F.O.A.D.: October 2025 marks the 25th anniversary of the most loved/hated and game-changing album by CRIPPLE BASTARDS, “Misantropo a senso unico”. An excellent opportunity to bring it back into our catalog with a special edition featuring a wealth of extras such as OBI strip, poster, bonus CD, and much more. And last but not least, a new revelation on the international grindcore scene, a Finnish band living in a time machine stuck in 1988 when Earache Records was churning out the first grindcore milestones and Napalm Death was playing at the Mermaid three times a week, annihilating brains with hits from “Scum” and “FETO”.  We are talking about PSYKOOSI and their album “Our so called future”,  a collection of their demos/live recordings for the first time on LP.  So, to sum up: MINDROT “Demo 1990” LP, RUPTURE “Baser apers years” gatefold LP, CRIPPLE BASTARDS “Misantropo a senso unico – 25 anniversary edition” gatefold LP+CD, and PSYKOOSI “Our so called future” LP on F.O.A.D. Records are available for pre-order via www.scareystore.com.

As always, we have prepared a limited bundle for those who want to purchase all four diehard versions. Please note that these titles are expected to sell out fairly quick, so the offer and availability will not last long. And one last note: please do not bombard us with unnecessary requests such as changing items within an order, changing addresses, changing payment methods, or anxiously asking for tracking numbers. These things slow us down, cause stress, and prevent us from working smoothly and staying on schedule.  Please be patient and, once you have placed your pre-order, give us time to prepare it, ship it, and update its shipping status.

RUPTURE “Corrupture” gatefold LP + flexi 7″ OUT NOW on FOAD Records!

Posted in Releases, Rupture on July 15th, 2013 by foadmaster2022

A dream coming true, RUPTURE’s “Corrupture” on FOAD Records! This 1993 ultraFAST Hardcore milestone had never seen a vinyl reissue in 2 full decades, making it almost impossibile to find copies of the original 10″ pressing at a reasonable price. Here at FOAD we are very proud to release the best sounding version of one of our favorite records ever, housed in an high quality gatefold cover which features all the lyrics and a collection of reviews and quotes about these Aussie ape fuckers. The audiophile treatment received by “Corrupture” adds more punch to the obsessively fast sound of Rupture, making all these classic songs like “Human Race”, “Fucken Old Cunts”, “A Is For Asshole” and “OD On THC” more powerful, nasty and pissed. Every note here drools with filth, desire to offend and totally anti-PC attitude, standing out in the Hardcore history as one of the best examples of one-of-a-kind band. Rupture were unique, “Corrupture” was unique. Now you have the chance to hear it like never before, finding out that you can bring new life to 26 classic songs making them sound more aggressive than ever. As soon as you’ll open your copy you’ll find another gem: a doublesided flexi 7″ EP with Rupture’s pre-“Righteousfuck” rehearsal demo recordings (11 songs, 1 of which never heard before), unreleased until today!

NOTE: “Corrupture” has been pressed in 300 black copies with black flexi EP and a “green goblin” die hard edition of 100 splatter vinyl records with white flexi EP. Due to a mistake by the pressing plant we have only 80 white flexi EPs, so the other 20 die hard copies will feature the black one, while the last 20 regular records will be sold without the bonus EP. In two words : ACT FAST!

DIE-HARD “green goblin” edition with white flexi 7″:

BLACK VINYL edition with black flexi 7″:
