Enjoying this very much this evening. Free download, highly recommended if you're into your metal/hardcore.

From Metal Ireland:
What really sets the band apart from their fellows is a deadly serious approach to both sound and presentation. The group has clearly take pains to produce riffage that is as bleak as humanly possible, with delayed, sustained guitar and a penchant for noise/ambient samples being deftly mixed in with good, old-fashioned crunch.

The ‘dirgecore’ label they’ve acquired is pretty close to the mark, and it’s clear that a lot of effort has gone into ensuring a guitar tone that’s so filthy it sounds like it’s half decomposing but which still retains plenty of depth.

For the most part, the record is full of fast, hammering sections of anger and populated with guitar chords that unsettle right down to the pit of your stomach.

The Ghetto Quietly boys are launching their second record tonight in The Cavern @ The Good Bits, which promises to be supermega. The 10" vinyl is a split between A-FORCE and EOMAC, both of whom are playing this evening, and is available with admission for a very reasonable €10 (€7 without).

SSTN affiliates DIGGER will be playing their first Dublin set promoting their recent Brookfield Grime EP on SSTN, as well as up and coming DJ ANTHROPE and Ghetto-superstar BLUEFOOD. International flavour for the night comes from BAOBINGA (UK).

Don't miss this!

October gig postponed

Wednesday, September 08, 2010 0 comments

Looks like our October extravaganza (mentioned last week) will have to be postponed. Venue have jacked up the price and hit us with stipulations (after having already agreed terms sometime ago), which have combined to make the gig untenable at this point. Tis a real shame, we were pretty excited about that one. We shall reschedule soon as possible!
