This is it, another mindblowing F.O.A.D. month is in the books and we’re happy to have started 2025 in the best possible way. As was foretold, it was an all hardcore punk clash, with two Italian bands, one Chilean and one Swedish mangel cult – spanning the 80s, the 2000s to the present day. We said these four new titles would be ready by Jan. 20, and here we are right on schedule: ASOCIAL “Kolsvart framtid” gatefold LP, ROUGH “Rude 1982-1983” gatefold LP, ARTURO “Conversazioni” LP and S.A.P.U “Curao, volao y con bajón” LP are out now on F.O.A.D. Records!
All preorders have been shipped, except for the packages containing the ROUGH T-shirt+LP bundle, which has been delayed a bit by the T-shirt printer but should arrive today, so the remaining orders will also be fulfilled asap. Please note, there are very few copies of the diehard versions left, especially of ASOCIAL and ROUGH, so as always our advice is to act fast. Next month we will be covering hardcore territories again, and in particular a great specialty of our label… JAPAN! Yes, there will be no less than 4 Japanese hardcore ragers of the kind you can only expect from F.O.A.D., we’ll reveal them in short with trailers… stay tuned!
And now more in detail about this month’s releases:

ARTURO “Conversazioni” LP (F.O.A.D. 361)
TORINO HARDCORE!!! After releasing a collection of the band’s early works (singles and demos from the 90’s) we are honored to welcome ARTURO back to the F.O.A.D. roster by reissuing their debut album “Conversazioni” (2001) for the first time on vinyl, coinciding with their return to the stages after more than a decade! 20 tracks of rapid and original hardcore, backed by their always young and energetic atmosphere and the unparalleled inimitable style that makes Torino’s underground sound so unique. “Conversazioni” was also the first recording with Gigio (from TOHC legends Church Of Violence) on vocals, adding his unique approach combining the aforementioned school with a Bad Brainish vibe. Recorded at the legendary “Acqualuce Studios” from which all TOHC classics of the 90s and the first two CRIPPLE BASTARDS albums “Your Lies In Check” and “Misantropo a senso unico” came from! LP with insert and OBI strip.

S.A.P.U “Curao, volao y con bajon” LP (F.O.A.D. 345)
After releasing Chilean punk gems such as Ignorantes, Ediöndö and D.P.C.D., F.O.A.D. Records is proud to unleash another totally underground beast all to be discovered.. S.A.P.U!!
Raw, sloppy tupa-tupa hardcore punk from Chiguayante, Chile delivered with genuine anger and don’t-give-a-fuck-attitude.. Recommended if you like the fuzziest side of South American punk (Ignorantes are the first comparison that comes to mind) spiced up with some Scandinavian Rapunk influences – think of Skitslickers or Huvudtvätt. This is their 2019 full length for the first time on vinyl. LP with insert including lyrics and band photos. Check them out at C.Y. Fest 2025 in L.A., USA!
