SS-20 “Secta suicida siglo 20” LP, SS-20 “Ojos infantiles” LP, SS-20 “Cadaver exquisito” LP, ATAVISTIC “Retrospective: from within to clear-cut conscience” 2xLP and SIEGE “Drop dead – Complete discography” gatefold 2xLP…out NOW on F.O.A.D. Records!!
Finally it’s time to unleash the last batch of F.O.A.D. releases for 2023. In the past twelve months we managed to put out 52 RELEASES (44 on vinyl, 3 on CD, 4 on MC and 1 book)!!! This is our all-time highest result, exceeding by far all our expectations. We look forward to the next year as a chance to improve ourselves and set the bar higher, even if it will surely be a very difficult goal, considering the insane pace we kept! Now back to the records…
As told before, this month was totally dedicated to some hardcore classics. We got into the most dangerous streets of DF, Mexico, to resurrect the complete recordings of SS-20, one of the most iconic and genuine female fronted Latin American bands ever, channeled into three LPs filled with raw, noisy and snotty punk hardcore. Then we got into ultra-fast territories with Atavistic, an often forgotten Britcore gem, with a double LP set which gathers their early recordings, a full throttle blasting galore of British brutality. Last but not least, we released a new version of Siege discography. There is not much to say
about this.. one of the most reverred and important extreme records of all time, the list of bands influenced by them is endless. The definition of “classic”.
All pre-orders have been sent out (along with tracking-numbers notifications), we are just finishing the last wholesale orders. As always we want to sincerely thank those who have continued to support us
through the years and also those who have recently approached our label, those who have helped us by providing useful material, contacts or even simply constructive advice. And of course all the bands past and present who let us release their music!
