Meltdown "Self Titled"
Format: 7"EP, Digital

Meltdown's newest effort, a three song 7"EP aptly titled "Meltdown", is the bands finest hour to date. Affirming their place among the upper echelon of hardcore's best new bands.

Recorded by Jay Maas @ The Getaway Group (Shipwreck a.d.), "Meltdown" showcases their continuously evolving precision/power. Their trademark machine gun guitar riffs, unrelenting double bass, and bone shaking breakdowns are more infectious than they've ever been. While their poignant lyrics and vocal rage continue to ring louder and clearer than ever. Sonic qualities that are all complimented by stark cover artwork by Aaron Horkey (The Hope Conspiracy, Isis, etc). And this is just the beginning, as Meltdown are currently writing a new album, to be released later in 2008.

Blacklisted "Heavier Than Heaven, Lonelier Than God"
Format: CD, LP, Digital

Whether it's with their infectious hardcore urgency, or uniquely powerful lyrics, the true grit of Blacklisted will move you. They carry a soul and energy unlike any other hardcore band. Picking up the torch that contemporary legends AN/GUTG once proudly carried. Merging a violence, honesty, and emotional outpouring into one untamable and inspiring hardcore animal.

Recorded and engineered by Kurt Ballou (Converge) @ Godcity, "Heavier Than Heaven, Lonelier Than God" is Blacklisted's most dynamic release to date. This latest effort carries a psychological darkness merely hinted at in their previous "Peace On Earth..." release, diving head first into the jaws of their introspective abyss. This bold leap has sharpened their teeth and reaped great creative rewards. Songs like "Stations" and "Touch Test" erupt with shocking state of emotional electricity, while the abrasive melancholy of "Circuit Breaker" and "Wish" possess the ability to haunt listeners for a lifetime. All these qualities showcase Blacklisted's continuing evolution as a band, and also distance them far from the rest of the hardcore pack. Cementing their reputation as one of the only true lone-wolves of their hardcore generation.

J. Bannon "The Blood Of Thine Enemies"
Format: 7"EP Only (One-sided, etched B-Side)

"The Blood Of Thine Enemies" is the long awaited debut solo recording from J. Bannon (Converge, Supermachiner, etc). "The Blood..." is a minimalist six minute emotional dirge unlike any of his previous musical/artistic efforts. Haunting in it's simplicity, this release foreshadows his anticipated "Wear Your Wounds" album, due out on Deathwish later in 2008.

Meant to be a stand alone piece, "The Blood..." is exclusively available as a one sided 7"EP (w/ a beautifully etched B-side) and will not be included on any other J. Bannon release.

This bootleg was circulating for a bit with an improper tracklisting, so consider this the definitive version.
