The new LP from industrial synth punk legend Schkeuditzer Kreuz "No Life Left" is in store now and ready to ship.
A cold, bleak, industrial, punk meditation on a cruel world and lives fighting that world only to be inevitably crushed by the gears of the death machine.
The whole album rumbles with the beat of the death machine that craves blood to lubricate its mechanics and the melody of tanks crushing skulls.
Throw in an Anti Cimex cover and you have the ultimate dystopian punk party at the end of times.
It's a grim listen. Believe me. But it hits a lot of familiar notes for anyone who's hated their boss, a heartless government and a corporate landscape that uses people and the environment like resources to grind up.
There's some sort of subconscious communion of punks and outsiders that can be felt on this record, as on all of the best punk.
Here's what CVLTNATION says about this release:
I’m Canadian, but I spent six years living in Los Angeles, and in the last year I lived there, there was a mass shooting in my neighborhood. Just a couple blocks from my home, a young man murdered his family, and shot up my surrounding streets, ending up on a college campus where he murdered four people, including a father and daughter. They were the streets we walked with our toddler, where we’d raised our teenage daughter, where we played and shopped and felt safe. Now they were surrounded by sirens, a horde of helicopters overhead, and bullet holes in windshields. Listening to people who didn’t live where I lived and didn’t feel what I felt argue about whether more or less guns would have made a difference was maddening. It felt so disrespectful to the lives lost and the sense of stripped-away safety for people to immediately make it political — but that’s what America does to keep the status quo in place.
So listening to the chaotic sounds of industrial synth crust // d-beat raw synth punk multi-machinist SCHKEUDITZER KREUZ perfectly captures the disgust and fear I felt watching the country descend into yet another Libs vs Cons debate.
“Second Life” is his latest single off his upcoming record No Life Left that’s out via Bad Habit Records and Sorry State Records on August 25th, 2023
Encierro "Doomsday Still Bleeds Red" LP
Seven songs of dark crust played in the key of despair. Encierro formed in the wake of Australia's savage Black Summer bushfires, an intense and catastrophic fire season that consumed large parts of the country in late 2019 and early 2020. The cover artwork for this LP is inspired by this horrific event, which wiped […]
Oratory — Inner Pyre 7 inch
After the great plague, Oratory reformed with a clear vision to forge Sepultura's Chaos AD with Celtic Frost, Discharge, Neurosis and Abscess into some hardened weapon-grade steel in the form of three songs. Hence the Inner Pyre EP spews forth from the gates of Brisbane City, resulting in some of the best extreme songs to […]
Gudgeon — Self Titled LP black vinyl
How does one describe Gudgeon? They have existed as a band for nearly a decade. They have been jamming and writing songs that whole time. In isolation, they evolved. Like some sort of Galapagos Island music project. Their closest relatives would be the already weird and outsider brands of punk. Think Nomeansno, Man Is The […]

Our buddies in Rockhampton / Yeppon are having a Palestine benefit gig with the best punk bands from the Rocky area playing. If you`re around that area, get along. Regional Queensland is a hostile enviroment to any underground culture so give these cats some support.

Also there`s a big Drum and Festival in Nambour. With an after party at the Presynct.
Transmission over.
New Mural for the upcoming Gaoled show. Painted by the big Swak.
Every young hardcore punk kid that comes through the shop is losing their shit about this show. It`s really 4 of the best current heavy bands in Australia. Expect brutality and madness. But also expect the best friendly vibes you`ve ever experienced. It`s the dichotomy of Nambour underground music on full effect.
Brought to you by the pillars of underground insanity @teamglassesrecords @antivision.aus and us.
Get your tickets asap. We`ve been getting close to selling out the Black Box. This might be the first one we do? Don`t miss out.

We now have a sock section. As a teenager one of the greatest places to go was the oddball t-shirt shop in the old half empty mall. 15 different Iron Maiden designs, those shirts with every classic UK punk band printed all other the front, velcro wallets with a weed leaf and rasta colours. Anything your young heart desired. In an effort to replicate that vibe, here`s some Misfits, Slipknot, Mayhem and Cannibal Corpse socks. Instore and on the webstore.
Gig announcement. Hear ye, Hear ye. Medieval peace punkers are touring on their new record Confere, released on Relapse Records.
Joining them will be @slowcutband @workquestionmark (launching their 1st tape) and @flail.sludge
