SEVEN MINUTES OF NAUSEA “Cancel the rose” LP+CD (F.O.A.D. 326)

Third chapter in FOAD’s annihilating mission to re-issue all the early 7MON material enriched by an incredible amount of rare and unreleased recordings. This LP includes two classic Ep’s from the legendary years when TNT&Records from Germany and Psycomania Rec. from Scotland were putting out on 7″ some of the most classic Noisecore ever landed on this planet.. “Cancelled” EP (1991) and “Noise of the rose” EP (1991): complete rough tape sessions with a lot of never heard before outtakes added, freshly ripped from Mick’s masters. While “Cancelled” is still part of the period when the band was a duo based in Australia, “Noise of the Rose” is the first work from when Mick moved to Germany and reformed the band with a local lineup, which included Matthias of End of Silence/Ecocentric Records, among others.  Straight from the LP liner-notes: “the story behind this LP begun when Matthias Weigand delivered us a huge box of 7MON reels to transfer in the studio, to check exactly what was included in each one of them. We found out that most of them were the masters of the early Eps released by TNT &Records and then Ecocentric Records. When we started to discuss about a possible series of 7MON releases on LP to re-build the band’s discography from the early times, Mick came out with the fact that he had recently unearthed the complete sessions of each EP, that were much longer than how they were originally released on 7”.. (continues on the LP). 
Bonus CD including:
1) Cancelled (original version from DAT master)
2) Noise of the rose (original version from DAT master)
3) Cancelled unedited (uncut rough mix tape)
4) Noise of the rose unedited (uncut rough mix tape)
5) Noise of the rose (alternate mix)

THOUSANDS OF TRACKS!
Started in 1985 in Australia by Scut and Mick Hollows and mutated through different incarnations revolving around Mick’s figure, 7MON still smashes eardrums nowadays. These two legendary EPs shaped an entire genre, and countless bands have sprung from the anti-musical extremism conceived by these two maniacs. If there is a noise heaven, 7MON certainly deserve a place at the top of it!  LP with special PVC sticker and 24 page booklet with lyrics and scans of the original 7″EPs

REGURGITATION “Bathrooms rule! Complete recordings 1986/1987″” gatefold LP (F.O.A.D. 098)

New Jersey’s REGURGITATION were the first musical incarnation of James Plotkin (later in O.L.D., Khanate, etc.) and a true cult in the late 80s tape-trader scene. Those familiar with O.L.D.’s debut album, “Old Lady Drivers,” released on Earache in 1988, will probably remember that the cover had a sticker that read “Insane Mega-Speed Thrash with crazy vocals. Highly original hardcore from the former members of REGURGITATION.”  Well, this is that band and here you have their complete discography transferred from the original reels and mastered by the genius of James Plotkin himself.   13 songs of superfast Death/Thrashcore (or simply early Grind) with those distinctive and caustic vocals that later became a trademark of O.L.D. Forget the poor quality bootlegs you may have seen around, this collection is without a doubt the most comprehensive and best sounding offering. It compiles the two demos “Organic backwash” (1986) and “Bathrooms rule” (1987) + “Pesticide” from “Speed Metal Hell Vol. 3” and some great soundboard live recordings. The LP is housed in a thick gatefold sleeve that includes extensive liner notes by J. Plotkin and Jon “Metalion” and includes a fanzine-style booklet with photos, original cassette artwork, rare flyers and zine excerpts.

As always, the summer season is one of the most hectic for our entire team, busy on multiple fronts between various festivals and related travels, as well as the usual warehouse work related to mailorder. In spite of everything we are also keen to keep our production chain going as we have an endless multitude of projects and releases in the pipeline. So also for August we have prepared you an incendiary month, totally focused on the most annihilating sonic extremism, with a parade of complete grind/noise decimation. From Japan two releases awaited by many, the complete discography of cult old school grinders I.R.F. (Infinite Radical Freaks), which puts together all their splits, demos and compilation tracks + 24 unreleased tracks, and the brand new album by noise heroes FINAL EXIT, celebrating their 30th anniversary. Going further back in our time machine, we have the third installment of our 7 MINUTES OF NAUSEA reissue series, this time focusing on “Cancelled” 7” + “Noise of the Rose” 7”. And at last but not least, by popular demand, we thought we would make available a new pressing of the REGURGITATION discography (pre-O.L.D.) originally released on F.O.A.D. in 2016. So to summarize, the 4 threats to your auditory health for this month are: I.R.F. “Discography & unreleased songs 1995-1997” LP+CD, FINAL EXIT “Born in hell” LP, SEVEN MINUTES OF NAUSEA “Cancel the rose” LP+CD and REGURGITATION “Bathroom rules! Complete recordings 1986-1987” gatefold LP.

Pre-orders are available now through www.scareystore.com and the out now date has been set for August 19.  As we have anticipated we are very busy on the summer festival front, we’ll do our best to answer promptly to your requests and process shipments as quickly as possible, but given the constant travels and the amount of commitments we have to deal with, we ask for your patience and remind you of our usual recommendations that we repeat in every post: try to limit as much as possible requests such as address changes, last-minute additions or substitutions, anxiety about having tracking numbers, etc.. we’ll do our best to get your order to you as quickly as possible. Also remember that diehard versions usually go very fast, so don’t sleep on it because they may run out in a short time. As usual we have made available a ltd. discounted bundle with the 4 colored/splatter versions for those who want to buy them in bulk. It won’t last long, so you know what to do!

It is no secret that we’re going through a very difficult time, certainly the hardest since F.O.A.D. Records exists. We want to thank all of you who contacted us asking if we’re doing ok and how we are facing the state of emergency here in Italy. Despite everything, we are happy to tell you that we’re all fine, F.O.A.D. Records and our mailorder www.scareystore.com are fully operational and hard-working, we have managed to ship ALL your pre-orders. Therefore, as planned, The GEROGERIGEGEGE “Piss shower girlfriend” picture LP, SAW THROAT “Indestroy (extended)” 2xLP, SEVEN MINUTES OF NAUSEA “Our conscience will not acclimatise” LP+CD are OUT NOW!!

We still have a few ltd. editions of 7MON and Saw Throat, but they won’t last for long. Also, we’re down to the last 50 copies of “Piss shower girlfriend” so you know what to do!!

More in detail:

The GEROGERIGEGEGE  “Piss shower girlfriend” picture LP  (F.O.A.D. 193)

A totally unreleased album with lost & found recordings by the undisputed Japanese ultra-noise master!! Quoting Juntaro himself to let you understand how this whole project started: “And, I’d just found excellent unreleased tape of Gero at home. I can’t remember this recording and date. Date, maybe, the end of ’80 or early ’90. I think you and Gero’ fans really like this recording. Side A for 15min. Side B for 15min. I named this record is… PISS SHOWER GIRLFRIEND!” In front of a message like this we at F.O.A.D. Records certainly could not back down, so here it is.. “Piss Shower Girlfriend” – the first picture disc ever released in Gero’s boundless discography.  Japan’s sickest senzuri noise perversion.

It’s all here, brief song introductions, his typical “1,2,3,4” and then an avalanche of ear-pinching horrorific noise ferocity of the most sheer and annihiliating type topped by lacerating screams…  you are warned! 13 songs in total. Picture disc in strong PVC bag, limited to 400 copies, 200 with fluorescent pink & blue sticker and 200 with fluorescent violet & green sticker. Watch the trailer HERE

SAW THROAT “Indestroy (extended)” 2xLP gatefold + 24 page color book (F.O.A.D. 180)

The ultimate edition of this masterpiece of apocalyptic heaviness! Originally released in 1989 as the band’s third album (considering the fact that Saw Throat is nothing else but a further stage in the legendary Sore Throat saga), and with a marked musical shift towards the more sinister sound of bands like The Swans, Saint Vitus, Amebix and Gore, “Indestroy” was envisaged as a one song concept LP with a lyrical emphasis placed on enviromental issues (3 decades BEFORE the current publicity seeking populism of mainstream popstars and media celebrities pretending to give a fuck about the planet). Improvised and recorded over a period of three weeks, the resulting album become not only the crown jewel in the band’s history, but the final nail in the coffin of them being an ongoing concern as the three core members concentrated on their own bands and all moved on.

However, the reception and cult status has grown over the years. And so, after digging through many old cassettes, the original rough mix instrumental version of the album was located featuring a different running order, and a heavier/more guitar orientated and less polished sound. As a historical artifact, this was the version vocalist Rich listened to while writing all the lyrics the night before he was due to record them. There are also some sound effects and small parts that never made it to the final version. Either way, as one of the last truely great recordings of the 80’s, this as now unheard version of the “Indestroy” album is for the first time made available to the public domain housed in a thick reverse board gatefold jacket with fully restored original artwork, extensive liner notes and a stunning 24 page full colored lyric and artwork booklet.

SEVEN MINUTES OF NAUSEA “Our conscience will not acclimatise” LP+CD  (F.O.A.D. 182)

Second chapter in F.O.A.D.‘s annihilating mission to re-issue all the early 7MON material enriched by an incredible amount of rare and unreleased recordings. This LP includes two classic Ep’s from the legendary years when TNT&Records from Germany was putting out on 7″ some of the most classic Noisecore ever landed on this planet… “Your father was a poser… and what’s about you??” (1990) and the split with AxCx (1989) called “We’ll just have to acclimatize ourselves to the post nuclear area“: complete rough tape sessions with a lot of never heard before outtakes added, freshly ripped from Mick’s masters. Straight from the LP liner-notes: “The story behind this LP begun when Matthias Weigand delivered us a huge box of 7MON reels to transfer in the studio, to check exactly what was included in each one of them. We found out that most of them were the masters of the early Eps released by TNT &Records and then Ecocentric Records. When we started to discuss about a possible series of 7MON releases on LP to re-build the band’s discography from the early times, Mick came out with the fact that he had recently unearthed the complete sessions of each EP, that were much longer than how they were originally released on 7″.. (continues)“.

To give you an idea of how longer these sessions are, the split 7″ with AxCx was 6′:35″ on the original TNT&Rec EP, this extended version clocks at 17′:18″ with more than ten minutes of extra noise! The bonus CD includes both the original EP versions transferred straight from the reels with a somehow sharper sound and the extended rough tape edits from Mick’s archives. The total of tracks included on this collection is countless, just think about the fact that the TNT editions had respectively 552 (“Your father was a poser..“) and 241 songs (Split with AxCx), nobody dared to count the complete sessions included here but we’re probably exceeding 2000!! These two legendary sessions shaped a whole genre and countless bands spawned from the “musical” extremism concepted by two Australian guys in the 80’s. If there’s a heaven of Noise, Seven Minutes Of Nausea is surely deserving a place at the top of it. LP with a special PVC sticker on the front cover, bonus CD, square A2 poster with the stunning “Your father was a poser…” art in its original colors and 20 page lyrics booklet!! Watch the trailer HERE

As many of you have noticed over time, here at F.O.A.D. Records we like to alternate various underground genres, making monthly thematic release lines… there have been months entirely dedicated to Italian Hardcore, others to Japanese, others dedicated to Death/Thrash to the most classic Metal, Punk and so on. An inevitable constant that is part of our most radical and extremist component is our love for Noisecore, and already more than once we have focused entire series of releases on this, as one of our favorite niches.  So for this March 2020 we return to what is well tested ground for us, and each of the bands we are going to talk about already has a story of friendship and continuity with F.O.A.D. specifically, Japan’s noise king Juntaro is a friend who in addition to having already had records out on F.O.A.D. in the past,  has always helped us in putting together projects with other Japanese bands, same goes for Rich Walker, we are at the 4th Sore Throat release and thanks to his help we have been able to bring to light the fantastic boxset/book “Noise not music” by Discharge and then Matthias Weigand (7MON, TNT & Rec, Ecocentric Records) with whom there is a story of collaboration and friendship that has lasted for almost 30 years…

In short, this month’s release schedule it is a bit like working in the family for us, and we are happy to announce the following: The GEROGERIGEGEGE “Piss shower girlfriend” picture LP (a totally unreleased album with lost & found recordings from 3 decades ago!), SAW THROAT “Indestroy” 2xLP gatefold (extended version with 1 extra LP filled with an unreleased rough tape version of this milestone of doomy UK apocalypticore) and SEVEN MINUTES OF NAUSEA “Our conscience will not acclimatise” LP+CD (2nd chapter in our series dedicated to early 7MON, this time based on “Your father was a poser…” and the split with AxCx plus plenty of bonus material from the same era). They’re all up for preorders and we’ll never stop in recommending you to act fast if you want to catch the ltd. diehard versions, as always they are expected to finish very quickly.

Are you ready to face the catastrophic effects of this month’s nuclear noise detonation prepared for you by FOAD Records? After 31 years since we started the label and 10 years of releasing records, CDs and tapes on constant basis, we can easily admit that today’s announcement is without doubt the most extreme and anti-musical monstrosity that we have ever put out on vinyl… not just Noisecore, but Noisecore of the most extreme type. So you are warned, you need steel armored ear drums to face this sonic extermination! 7 MINUTES OF NAUSEA “Thrash culture as bora” LP+CD and NOISE / BIXERA Split 7″ are both OUT NOW!! All your preorders will be sent this week.

More in detail about each release:

SEVEN MINUTES OF NAUSEA “Thrash culture as bora” LP+CD (F.O.A.D. 141)

First chapter in FOAD‘s annihilating mission to re-issue all the early 7MON material enriched with an incredible amount of rare and unreleased recordings. This LP includes the band’s first 2 EPs “Our culture is boring” and “Thrashbora” – the complete sessions with a lot of never heard before outtakes, freshly ripped from Mick’s master tapes. Straight from the LP liner-notes: “The story behind this LP begun when Matthias Weigand delivered us a huge box of 7MON reels to transfer in the studio, to check exactly what was included in each one of them. We found out that most of them were the masters of the early Eps released by TNT &Records and then Ecocentric Records. When we started to discuss about a possible series of 7MON releases on LP to re-build the band’s discography from the early times, Mick came out with the fact that he had recently unearthed the complete sessions of each EP, that were much longer than how they were originally released on 7″. So we opted to start with a LP including these extended “Our culture is boring” and “Thrashbora” sessions ripped from Mick’s tapes. Anyway, since the sound on the reels from which the Eps were produced is somehow more “in the face” and sharper on the high frequencies we decided to add a bonus CD showing you both versions: the complete (longer) session ripped from Mick’s cassettes and the EP edit transferred from the reels.”

Started in 1985 in Australia by Scut and Mick Hollows and mutated through different incarnations revolving around Mick’s figure, 7MON still smashes eardrums nowadays. Their first EP “Our culture is boring” was released in 1988 and immediately tore down all the walls of music conception. 351 songs, melted into a blurr-fest of drums, bass and shouts. An endless stream of blasts, grunts, feedbacks and to the point political lyrics, pushing forward the boundaries of the then newborn loud cousin of Grindcore, Noisecore. In 1989 Mick and Scut delivered their second effort (recorded in fall 1988), this time on flexi disc. “Thrashbora” follows the steps of its predecessor, sounding even noisier and fiercer. These two legendary EP’s shaped a whole genre and countless bands spawned from the “musical” extremism concepted by two Australian guys in the 80’s. If there’s a heaven of Noise, Seven Minutes Of Nausea is surely deserving a place at the top of it. LP with a special PVC sticker on the front cover, bonus CD and 20 page lyrics booklet!

Limited to 300 copies all on color-in-color vinyl (black into coke bottle green)

==================

NOISE / BIXERA Split 7″ (F.O.A.D. 142)

Complete Noise/Grind terrorism from Brazil. Long time aural butchers NOISE deliver 16 ultra brutal stabs in the face, originally written in 1996 and re-recorded in 2015 sounding even sicker and harsher. You perfectly know what to expect from them: an inhuman dose of monster growls, screams, cacophonic distortion and lightning fast drums. Recommended if you like FEAR OF GOD, TUMOR, V.N.A., SORE THROAT and other eardrum molesters of that kind. BIXERA complete the onslaught with a morbid and gory dose of old school Grindcore that will catapult you back to 1988-1991. It reminds of early REGURGITATE, STENCH OF CORPSE, GORE BEYOND NECROPSY, IMPETIGO and other putrid aberrations combining primitive deathly Grindcore with Gore and Splatter imagery and pitchshifted puking vocals.
