As you might have expected, July on F.O.A.D. Records equals total ear-deafening grind/noise! It’s the month of the Obscene Extreme Festival and our releases are designed especially for this fantastic event, which we have been attending since the very first edition and which has always seen the massive F.O.A.D. booth soaring in the special area dedicated to all extreme distros and labels. For this month we have outdone ourselves again, preparing no less than 5 releases that will delight any maniac of the most annihilating and disgusting sounds. First and foremost we have the colossal anthology collection of the Swiss masters FEAR OF GOD, which for a number of reasons has been in the works for a good 15 years (!!)… a mammoth work that collects all their existing recordings + a DVD with 6 shows filmed at the time, all packaged inside a hard cover book, of the same deluxe format we adopted for DISCHARGE “Noise not music”. Next to such an important milestone in the history of anti-music, we thought of adding two more chapters to our effort in reissuing the entire discography of Sweden’s legendary gore-grinders REGURGITATE… it’s the turn of “Sickening bliss” and “Deviant”.And to draw from the current grindcore scene – you will also find the newest album by our Japanese friends KANDARIVAS, a true bulldozer of blasting grind/deathcore with their unique imprint drawing from traditional taiko sounds and their attachment to the legendary Kanda shrine in Tokyo. Finally, by popular demand-we also add a new pressing of DISHARMONIC ORCHESTRA’s “Repulsive overtones? 1988-1989” Gatefeld 2xLP+CD (with different cover and booklet colors than the first edition), these Austrian death/grind pioneers will perform on the OEF stage, make sure to check them out!
So, to recap – this grinding July on F.O.A.D. Records consists of: FEAR OF GOD “All your fears” Book + 3xCD + DVD set, REGURGITATE “Sickening bliss” LP/MC and “Deviant LP/MC, KANDARIVAS ”Rhythms of obliteration“ LP, DISHARMONIC ORCHESTRA ”Repulsive overtones? 1988-1989″ Gatefeld 2xLP+CD (2nd pressing)… all 5 are available for pre-order via www.scareystore.com As always we have also come up with limited bundles for those who want to grab these new releases all together at a discounted price, and a bundle with 5x REGURGITATE tapes. Usual recommendations: hurry up if you want to secure the splatter-colored diehard versions and don’t bombard us with requests like order substitutions, address changes, etc.. Of course if you are planning to come to Obscene Extreme Festival you can contact us to reserve and pick up titles directly at the F.O.A.D. booth, and even if you don’t want to book anything we are very pleased if you stop by and visit us!

REGURGITATE “Sickening bliss” LP / MC (F.O.A.D. 349)
“Sickening bliss” is the final album by Regurgitate, released in 2006, now finally back on vinyl and for the first time ever also on cassette tape! 26 tracks of bludgeoning bowel-erupting insanity… Sounding like the perfect compendium of their whole career, this album is a gory stream of awesome riffing, laid over belligerent drums and topped by ominous ghoulish vocals. This is goregrind as it should be! No room to breathe, just plain, unadulterated and inhuman brutality!! LP with printed inner sleeve. MC with two sided Jcard and pro-printed tape (black print on bone white shell).

REGURGITATE “Deviant” gatefold LP / MC (F.O.A.D. 348)
Originally released in 2003 by Relapse Records, “Deviant” is a monolith of 27 boneshaking grinding shots, delivered with Regurgitate’s trademark merciless brutality. Incorporating a touch of Swedish ultracore, Regurgitate made their riffs tighter and vocals focused primarily on raw screams rather than gurgling growls. The result is an album that sounds 100% Regurgitate while coming out fresh and renewed, supported by the impeccable production of Soundlab’s mastermind Mieszko Talarczyk (RIP). Memorable, fast and inspired, “Deviant” is a 32 minute splatter feast that will leave you asking for more… blood!! LP housed in a super-thick gatefold sleeve. MC with two sided Jcard and pro-printed tape (white print on marbled black shell).

KANDARIVAS “Rhythms of obliteration” LP (F.O.A.D. 395)
Fueled by the invincible energy of Tokyo’s ancient Kanda shrine, KANDARIVAS combine the best tactics of old-school grindcore with a face hammering death/hardcore vibe and traditional elements that spring from the very heartbeat of Japan’s legendary taiko drums. Enhanced by a surprisingly powerful production, “Rhythms of obliteration” reaches the peak of Kandarivas with a high-impact sound that does justice to the uinqueness of a band that shatters all aural boundaries. After several EPs and splits, KANDARIVAS with this debut full length keep on their patch marching at their own insane (blast) beat, unleashing another obliterating storm of fury and creativity!! Come with insert including lyrics and photos.

DISHARMONIC ORCHESTRA “Repulsive overtones? 1988-1989” Gatefeld 2xLP+CD (F.O.A.D. 280)
2nd pressing
New pressing with different colors on the artwork-layout. Housed in a thick gatefold jacket including bonus CD and full colored booklet…
The most exhaustive collection of early grinding works from this Austrian extreme metal legend! The roots of DISHARMONIC ORCHESTRA, everything they recorded before their classic debut album “Expositionsprophylaxe”.
43 songs – over 100 minutes of music compiling the following works:
– Split LP with Pungent Stench (1989)
– “Successive substitution” 7″ (1989)
– “Requiem for the forest” Demo (1988)
– “The unequalled visual response mechanism” Demo (1988)
– Rehearsal/Demo 1988
– bonus private rehearsal 1988 (totally unreleased!)
Grindcore inspired death metal in their own highly original style, blending angular, dissonant riffs with a unique rhythmic approach. From the very early demos and rehearsals showing the early steps in their inclination to channel heavy, lilting sounds in a deadly blender of hardcore edginess to the bone-crushing split LP and 1st EP recordings perfectly fitting the late ’80s Nuclear Blast death/grind panorama with cult bands such as Righteous Pigs, Defecation, Atrocity, Disastrous Murmur and Pungent Stench… Ripped from the band’s archival sources and remastered at Toxic Basement Studio for the most deafening sonic impact.
