Bath Tour Washout |
siN's metal news reports: BRICK BATH have
posted the following message on their official website:
"Hey everybody we figured it was time to
let you know what's going on...
Due to being stiffed by more than a few
promoters and lack of support from our record label (not to mention the
hurricanes and soaring gas prices), the band had no other options then
to cancel the rest of our tour dates for the remainder of 2005. [see full

| Th'
Legendary Shack*Shakers |
Press Release reports: Following critical
accolades from Mojo, Q Magazine and Billboard with their first two albums
Cockadoodledon't and Believe, Th' Legendary Shack*Shakers will release
their third-full length recording Pandelirium this February, their second
LP on Yep Roc Records (home to artists such as Paul Weller, Bob Mould,
Marah and The Reverend Horton Heat).
Featuring tracks such as "Ichabod!," "No
Such Thing," and "Somethin' in the Water," Pandelirium is a collection
of twelve songs that draws from the rustic charm of cotton-field hollers,
funeral marches and murder ballads and the unhinged energy of Texas polkas,
southern blues, spaghetti western anthems and gritty, punky sound bombs.

Earache reports: Intense Degree - 'War In
My Head' Out Of Print MOSH 9 Available To Download Mansfield's finest Superfast
Hardcore band of the late 80's shared countless stages with the leading
lights of the newly spawned UK grindcore scene, Heresy ,Napalm Death, Doom,
Bolt Thrower etc all over the UK in the 86-87 period, and attracted the
attention of famed Radio 1 DJ John Peel -who booked the band into the BBC
studios for a well received session, first broadcast in March 1988. The
band were less metallic sounding than their contemporaries, concentrating
instead on super swift HC based material, and in drummer Frank they boasted
one of the fastest in the scene. Intense Degree were also notable for having
a female bass player, which was unusual for the time, Bolt Thrower aside.
Earache became good friends with the band
and arranged for them to record their debut LP in Birdsong Studios, Worcester
in October 88. Studio owner Steve Bird deserves an honourable mention in
the history of Grindcore for recording the B-side of Napalm Death's 'Scum'
and all of the 'From Enslavement' album- most engineers were perplexed
by the unlistenable noise that grindcore bands unleashed in the studio,
but Steve was actually encouraging and even made the bands vaguely listenable,
all with a zero budget. The resulting album 'War In My head' became the
9th Earache release (mosh 9) and was originally available on vinyl LP only
but is now online at metaltracks to download in mp3 format. -
