We’ll be there, doesn’t matter how shitty the music.

We have a little amount of Dead Western’s lovely TOUR ONLY EP “Wrap Your Loving Arms Around Me” in stock.

This is a 7-track-CD with live versions of the Dead Western Trio (feat. Troy Mighty, Kevin Corcoran and Jesse Phillips), recorded in Sacramento in October 2009, which was available on tour only.

Go and grab one here.

P.S.: The new ROKKO’S ADVENTURES is available now, too!

People get ready, the one and only Zappa-Coverband! With members of Tarentatec, Schnaak, Feindrehstar, Osis Krull and Anus Butterfly they will punk the F Zippy and keep it real (prog and fusion approaches may pretty much fuck off). On tour in preparation of the Zappanale Festival:

AUG7TH – Erfurt @ In The Woods*

Be there… check for updates: DEAD WESTERN

Fellas, we know nobody buys records. But you should at least listen to some good music, right?

We offer a brandnew label-compilation for free via Mediafire!

It’s called “If you wanna dance like a man, clap your hands and die!” (A degenerate online compilation for the generation 2.0) and features tracks of Don Vito, Capillary Action, Dead Western, Pavilion Land, Schnaak, Gnarled Bikers, Osis Krull, Dyse, The Season Standard, Zarboth, Tarentatec and The Zonnhaider’s Club. The tracks are completely different ones than those of our CD-labelsampler “Freedom to Chaos” (2009).

DOWNLOAD THE COMPILATION!

Enjoy the music, burn it, feed your ipods and tell your friends…
but don’t forget: You can buy music, if you like it. And it’s much better to listen to some good old vinyl than to indulge in this crappy mp3-zombie-sound.

Contradictions as we like it!

Absolutely WONDERFUL video by PAVILION LAND, the new project of MARTIN KETELHUT (The Zonnhaider’s Club). Befriend him on MySpace, he’s only got 14 friends.

Bloodily awesome line-up!

More info: HERE.
High fives to Marcel and Oliver!

NO COMMENT…

Many changes in the Cap Action Camp. Besides a totally new line-up, tourplans and the long-awaited new album “Capsized” (scheduled for February 2011) is taking shape.

P.S.: Lauren, Spencer & Sam… you beautiful, incredibly gifted people. We will painfully miss you and hope you will come back soon. :)

To quote Mr. Jon Pfeffer of Capillary Action:

“What with Myspace all of a sudden becoming the Detroit of the Internet, we’re taking part in an e-version of ‘white flight’ and joining the Facebook craze”:

DISCORPORATE RECORDS

One of the most important underground label, agency and home needs our help!!!

Dear Exile On Mainstream fellows, bands, fans & friends, it´s hard to find the right words, for what happenend to probably the most familiar record label on the planet, so we will use Andreas´ and Beates words, which were very sad and hard to read for everyone, that once got connected to the very special Exile family:

»Dear fans of Exile On Mainstream, When we returned from Roadburn Festival we found ourselves in the worst nightmare we can imagine: A water-pipe burst flooded our hole house and the office with two feet of water. We have no power, no heating, no internet, no phone at the moment… All our computers are fucked as well as the whole office interior (half of the record collection included!) We are busy and fighting at the moment to clean up the mess. This will take some time and we can only ask you to be patient with us.«

Andreas didn’t ask for this help. Let’s be a  community!
Go here: THE EXILE TRUST

We’re sad to announce the cancellation of CAPILLARY ACTION‘s Europe-Tour in August/Septemner because of personal reasons.

This also includes the ZAPPANALE FESTIVAL. Bummer!

Mastermind Jonathan Pfeffer is writing a new album right now which will be recorded by the end of the year. Prepare for… something… extraordinary.
