Today marks the release of the first Discorporate-record from these supertalented maniacs from New York City. “So Embarrassing”, Capillary Action’s third album, is a genre-transcender that will blow you away as much as it’ll will leave you blessed and joyful. 11 masterpieces and an army of crazy musicians (incl. a string-, percussion- and brass-section) guide you through the celestial compositions of Jonathan Pfeffer.

The eastcoast of the United States has become the home and headquarter of a fascinating young scene of supernatural bands and personalities. Capillary Action is not only one of them, together with bands like The Dirty Projectors, Pattern Is Movement, Extra Life or Icy Demons they are the spearhead of this movement.

Capillary Action are still on a 3-month-tour through Europe (where people slowly become aware of this sensational movement) in an acoustic-quintet, with first Germany-shows in mid-May, and after coming back they immediately tour the states with Les Claypool (Primus).

Get a copy of “So Embarrassing” (our nomination for “Album of the Year – worldwide”) at our shop, your local dealer or at an amazing live-show of them Capillaries.

Finally it’s done… with blood, sweat and tears (of joy) we have finished the 500 steelboxes for the 5″+DVD-Release of German Noisecore-Band No.1 DŸSE. 100% handmade by André, Jari and Discorporate-Johannes! We have 100 copies of “Plaste” in stock here at the Discorporate Shop. The rest will be sold on tour only!

The early bird catches the worm…

Btw, we have a Snippet of two new DŸSE-songs (to be appearing at the PLASTE-Metalbox) up on our MySpace, along with the first rough uncut recording of GNARLED BIKERS (“The Slow One”) and a song from the Debut-EP of THE SEASON STANDARD (“Rappa2-01″).

After being on tour in the USA and UK for 5 weeks now – blowing hundreds of people seriously away – The CAPILLARY-ACTION-Acoustic-Quintet is going to hit the Old World’s mainland. These are the dates:

# Discorporate-Labelsampler Releaseparty

The invasion of the mad Frenchman! As of today our catalogue will be enriched by a CD of two musicians from Paris, going by the name of Zarboth.
ZARBOTH: It’s a free-noise-metal-jazz mix of whatever; it’s whenever; it’s cities, fields, rain, shoes, sun, water, laughter, east, yeast, night, love, Paris, German beer, cigarettes from anywhere; everywhere; friends, and from Pantera to Bill Frisell then beyond… Yes, dear people! Another crazy duo and a HELLA lot of fun!
Get a grab on that fantastic debut now at our Shop, your local dealer or live-shows of Zarboth and/or WeInsist!

Now available in the sweet, tiny and strictly commercial Discorporate-Shop:
ROKKO’S ADVENTURES!
This Fanzine from Vienna with the subtitle “Menschen, Tiere, Sensationen” is packed with stories about music culture (focus on noise/avantgarde), literature, science, modern art and lots of edgy stuff. Rokko’s Adventures is simply the best unordinary magazine that we know – excellent writing, black humor and a brave DIY-spirit – you can get it for peanuts in our shop. Rokko’s Homepage

Apart from this, you can now preorder the two new splendid Discorporate-releases at the Shop:

ZARBOTH – Zarboth (February 27th)
CAPILLARY ACTION – So Embarrassing (May 1st)

More on the new releases soon…

Oh my god! What can we say…
German Noisecore-Duo No. 1 just signed to Discorporate.
DŸSE, probably the best live band in the world, is a phenomenon in the scene for years now. Just with drums, guitar and their voices those two folks from Jena (Jari, formerly in Rodeo Queen) and Chemnitz (André, formerly in Volt) transmute every venue into a drop of sweat within seconds. An unbelievable amount of energy and fun on stage… and simply the most stunning exposure of the ABC in twisted Noisecore.
We are extremely happy to work with DŸSE as we are big fans of them and became friends immediately. Expect the release of very special items in Spring 2009.
You don’t know DŸSE? Haha, well -> CLICK!

[IMPORTANT NOTE: DŸSE still releases major outputs with our friends and partners of Exile On Mainstream Records. There was no coup or betrayal! Discorporate "just" releases special things like Vinyl or DVD.]
