WEHRMACHT “The complete beer soaked collection 1985-1989” 6 X tape boxset and SLANDER “Calunnia” 12″ …pre-orders start NOW!!

Posted in Pre Orders, Releases, Slander, Wehrmacht on June 26th, 2017 by foadmaster2022

As we’re approaching the end of June, the time is finally coming for our open air summer festival “United as one Part. 3“, with exclusive Italian appearences by D.R.I., Wehrmacht, General Surgery, Deafness By Noise also keeping the spotlight on local heroes such as Slander and First Brawl. To make this event even more unique and interesting we have prepared two special relaases for 2 of the bands performing there… Online preorders for both are starting now, they will be obviously premiered and first sold at the festival, we’ll start to ship them around July 10th as soon as we’ll be back from OEF.  The bands that we chose for our United As One focused assault are Portland’s undisputed pioneers of shark endorsed ultra-fast Thrashcore madness… no one else than our shoebros WEHRMACHT, with a limited 6x Tape boxset edition of the highly acclaimed “Beer soaked collection 1985/1989” that we originally released on vinyl 3 years ago…

… and then the new 12″ by one of the most promising revelations of today’s Italian Hardcore scene… SLANDER!  If you thought that Venice, California was the only Venice that needs to be mentioned when you talk of HC, now you also have to cope with the franticly growing scene of the original Venice city (Venezia) in the north East of Italy.. in the last decade it delivered a bunch of good underground acts and has consolidated an unbelievably strong base also thanks to the cult “Venezia Hardcore Festival” that brings together thousands of HC maniacs from all over Europe.  The band that better represents this manic Hardcore rebirth is with no doubt SLANDER, that have quickly reached a solid follow up after a demo, an EP, a split LP and a full length album, also thanks to countless tours and their completely insane live performances. This new 12″ is the final punch in the face showing their power and intensity.

 

So preorders for WEHRMACHT “The beer soaked collection 1985/1989” 6x tape boxset limited to 200 and SLANDER “Calunnia” one-sided 12″ limited to 300 copies are up now.  Once again: they will be premiered at our festival on June 30th, you will have to be patient on the final shipping date as from next week we’ll be at Obscene Extreme in the Czech Republic and we’ll start to ship this batch of preorders and the next one (to be announced really soon.. stay tuned!) after July 10th.

More in detail about each release:

POISON “Höelle und Vernichtung – Complete discography 1984/1987” Boxset OUT NOW on FOAD Records!

Posted in Poison on June 20th, 2017 by foadmaster2022

At last! One of the most anticipated releases in F.O.A.D.‘s history is ready and it finally invaded our warehouse!!! Poison “Höelle und Vernichtung – Complete discography 1984/1987” boxset is here and it’s ready to go… there are only 30 copies left of the diehard edition on splatter vinyl with extra backpatch and A1 poster so blast at the speed of light! Please, be patient because this mammoth is HUGE (each copy weighs 2,4 Kg) and will take a while to send out all preorders, of course we’ll do our best to send them all out within a week or two… And this is just the beginning! This scorching hot summer will see a streak of releases by F.O.A.D. Records, so keep your eyes open, the next batch of preorders will be announced in few days and then another will follow!

All the existing POISON recordings from 1984 to 1987 + an extensive choice of unreleased material, over 5 hours of pure infernal armageddon from one of the most ancient pioneering Black/Death Metal hellhounds of the mittel-European scene of the 80s. To make things fair for those who had already got our previous POISON vinyl releases, this boxset is somehow completing the series because “Sons of evil“, “Bestial Death” and “Awakening of the dead” on it are featured on CD only, while all the rest (that has mostly never been released before) is included on LP. Quoting the band’s master-mind of evil Uli “Angel Of Death” Hildenbrand: “When F.O.A.D. contacted me the first time to discuss the possibility of a complete re-release of all those ancient tapes, I basically thought they were nuts – and told them so – however; through sheer tenacity they managed to convince me that it was about time for a really professional overworking of the material – hence the re-release of the first 3 demos and now THIS: basically everything you always wanted to know about POISON but were afraid to ask for! Seriously; this box has it all – the best sounding-material available, all lovingly remastered and re-designed (with a little help from yours truly); all of it taken from the original masters, some of it never released before! Even I myself was amazed by the results – which is something that happens very rarely – so, if you are a fan and you want to experience the story of the band from beginning to end, here is your perfect time machine! So if you’re ready for some 5-6 hours of poisonous pleasures – IMMERSE YOURSELF!”

This monster comes in an embossed deluxe box and includes 5 x LPs, 2 x digipack CDs and a 60 page hard cover book collecting all their existing photos, flyers, artworks, ‘zine excerpts and more! Every recording has been ripped from the master-tapes provided by the band and maniacally restored and remastered. More in detail about the contents:

LP1 : “Into the abyss” (remastered by Uli Hildenbrand)

LP 2+3 (gatefold) : Full 1986 Live set in rehearsal (previously unreleased)

LP 4 : The First Gig 1985: “Live Terror” (extended version featuring the complete show, as the ’80s cassette edition wasn’t complete)

LP 5 : Final Gig 1987 and earliest rehearsals 1984 (previously unreleased, including songs that were completely unknown to date)
