九狼吽 Clown - Human in Confusion - LP .
IN STOCK - Superb package, Heavy vinyl, gatefold, printed inner sleeve, Sugi artwork - limited to 500 copies only - very limited stock - treat yourself with a copy athttps://blitzrecords.bigcartel.com

"Nagoya city, one of the cities which raised up Japanese Hardcore to a world-class level, has 九狼吽(CLOWN) in its core. They play aggressively, and it’s not too much to say that they represent Japanese Driving Hardcore Punk at it's best. And this is their newest record. Nagoya City is probably more well known in recent years for D-Clone but there's bands flying under the radar such as the almighty Clown who play tough-as-nails metallic hardcore - real bad ass stuff. 

Clown is pissed off to the fuckin' max, bad ass hooks left right and centre...play loud, drive fast and bang your head.

Absolut/Paranoid – Jawbreaking Mangel Devastation - 12" USA.

Absolut/Paranoid – Jawbreaking Mangel Devastation - 12" USA.
IN STOCK NOW  - VERY LIMITED STOCK - USA only version - brilliant full colour gatefold cover - nearly sold out from the label - would cost £24 to get a copy from over the pond -I will have 5 copies only if want to indulge - available at http://blitzrecords.bigcartel.com/
ABSOLUT (Canada) and PARANOID (Sweden) team up to unleash this split 12" of JAWBREAKING MANGEL DEVASTATION! comes with full color artwork by the legendary Japanese hardcore punk artist SUGI and comes in a gatefold sleeve. Its limited to 500 (400 black vinyl and 100 transparent orange). If you've heard either band before you know what to expect. ABSOLUT plays devastating HC punk influenced by late era Cimex and other punk bands with a metal tinge to them. The vocals on this are relentless. PARANOID hailing from Sweden have members from many other Swedish kang bands and are in my opinion one of the worlds best current punk acts. Taking influence from the countless raging Swedish bands they grew up with but also taking plenty of cues from Japan and combining them into a barrage of intense hardcore punk that will leave you numb!
