HELTA SKELTA, AND KITCHEN'S FLOOR IN PERTH

Helta Skelta's first show in over a year! Kitchen's floor in Perth. Cold Meat demo CS should be ready for this show too

ROCK BOTTOM

Customers in the US chasing Helta Skelta records hit up Phil at Rock Bottom Records.

"Domestic release from Perth's best kept secret Helta Skelta (aside from Prag whom they share a singer). Musically its a mix of Wire demo's, classic Aussie punk (The Victims), and some early 80's hardcore thrown in for good measure (I'm thinkin' Middle Class). They have LP coming out on Deranged hopefully in the near future. 329 copies pressed with Risographed printed covers."












Also got in copies of the new BRANDO'S ISLAND 7" and it's fucking good.

HELTER SKELTER

Another track from the new LP. Preorders up for people in the US now, but we'll be handling distribution for people in Oz. US tour soon

DISTRO: DIÄT - POSITIVE ENERGY

ADAGIO830: Brought together by a shared enthusiasm for bleak UK punk and a history of playing in hardcore bands, Berlin based DIÄT have created a sound that they have described, perhaps not entirely seriously, as ‘tough new wave’.  Fans of Crisis, Killing Joke and The Mob should be pleased by the band’s unlikely synthesis of depressive drift and cranked, accelerated energy. Recorded last Winter while huddled in a practice space overlooking the industrial landscape of frozen East Berlin, the album finds Diät reining in the threads of malignant enthusiasm still peppered throughout their earlier recordings to focus on the cynicism and dejectedness that binds them as a band.  Intending to create an album that showcases each song individually and plays out like a mixtape, Diät have boldly attempted to create a sound of their own - the sound of checking your account balance to see if you’ve been paid yet…but you haven’t.
