NEW STUFF UP FOR SALE

Order at http://painkillerrecords.com/catalog/
Listen at http://painkillerrecords.com/



PKR-043: VACCINE - Dead Inside 7"
Vaccine return with their newest 10-song 7" of razor sharp hardcore. A relentless assault of blast beats, buzzsaw guitar and politically-charged misanthropic lyrics. Undoubtedly their most aggressive release to date.
First 200 on red vinyl

GET HIGH - Demo 1996 LP (split release with the band)
The most unsolicited re-release in Boston Hardcore history. The term ?underrated? came into the modern lexicon due in part to the hype that was never once inspired by GET HIGH. But let?s put it into context?at a time in the late 90s when Boston and hardcore in general was either jamming youth crew revisited, burly mosh or screechy arithmetic-core, GET HIGH came out with a raging demo of Swiz/Soulside/Shawn Brown-era Dag nasty-core with AF drumming and Ginn-inspired guitar playing. Central Massachusetts spawned, this record owes more to the extremely high amount of plastic in the waters of the Twin Cities than all of the aforementioned influences combined. But, with members of Fit For Abuse, Opposition, Dive, Dropkick Murphys, Hatchetface/Bound and many others since then, what else were you expecting? Contains their 5-song 1996 demo tape plus two outtakes from that session, and three unreleased 1997 tracks intended for a never-realized split 7" with Close Call.
Limited to 289 copies on 180g vinyl, housed in a screen printed sleeve with poster insert.

+ some new distro stuff and label restocks: PRISONER ABUSE LP 2nd press, BRUISERS Independence Day 12" reissue (top notch package on this one), FATHEAD SUBURBIA demo 7" (pre Sheer Terror ca. 1983), PROWL new 7" (ltd/200), BLOODKROW BUTCHER 7" (got the last 10 copies), CAGED ANIMAL 7" and maybe a few other things.

VIOLENT FUTURE 7" is sold out through us (check Revelation or Deathwish for copies), and the following are down to the last few copies: MFP 7", STAB 7", MAMMOTH GRINDER 7", VACCINE 5", NO FAITH LP

This is probably a little out of place on this board, but I figure there are probably a few skids on here that will be into it...

BLACKTASK was a Philadelphia metal band that existed from 1983 to 1987. Heavily influenced by  Venom, Motorhead, early Slayer and a dash of punk, their initial releases ? a three-song demo tape (1984) and a self-released four-song 12" EP (1985) ? were a crude, no-fi bash fest that dealt with only the most uncompromising subject matter, such as killing enemies and smashing your fucking face. The 12" EP has languished on want lists and the depths of die-hard collections for years, and we're happy to bring it back to the masses for the first time.

This limited edition reissue LP contains the eponymous 12" EP backed with the full five-song session to their Spikes To The Wall demo tape for 9 songs total. Includes a repro of the original lyric sheet and an 11x22" poster collecting various original write ups, reviews and rare photos. 555 pressed on black vinyl.

If you're into raw/extreme metal like Venom, Hellhammer, Bathory and the likes, or the crude sounds of early South American metal, this LP is well worth your time. Check youtube if you want to test drive before you buy.

New Hoax 7" out now, some new distro items added, etc etc.

http://www.painkillerrecords.com/catalog/products_new.php

Interesting trades considered - painkillerrecords@gmail.com

PKR042: HOAX - s/t 7"
HOAX prove again on their 3rd 7" E.P. why they are one of the last bastions of true hardcore spite and genuine danger. Mosh-heavy songs of empowerment and anger are forged using a degraded distillation of vintage Alan Blake style riffing backed with driving, militaristic drums, and the feral anomie typically reserved for a vocalist like Mike IX Williams. Discipline comes from within. Comes in a matchbook style fold-out sleeve with 12 panel poster insert. 200 yellow vinyl for mail order.

We also just repressed the MAMMOTH GRINDER Obsessed With Death 7", another 300 copies this time with a proper printed cover. This one's just about sold out, so don't sleep.

PKR-040: STAB - Nation Rising 7"
The UK pressing of STAB's debut EP sold out in a flash, so we decided to press up some more copies on our side of the pond. After a positive response to the demo released early 2011, STAB continue to look back at 80s UK Hardcore whilst dissecting the now, turning their backs on the current wave of whinging punk prophesying end times to justify inaction and indifference. Bringing their cultural backgrounds together amidst recent events such as riots, failed protests and the isolationism of their island home, STAB attempts to pierce both sound waves and minds with this record.
Limited to 375 copies.

PKR-039: CITIZENS ARREST - Soaked In Others Blood 7"
Recorded 20 years after the break-up of these cult favorites, with their entire original membership intact, and with early member Ted Leo reinstated on second guitar, CXA achieve the quite rare feat of delivering a reunion record that fits solidly in the tradition of their classic releases. Soaked In Others Blood sounds like it could have come between their first 7"and their lp -- perfectly encapsulating the elements that have made them a legendary band in the present day. At least a dozen bands on the Painkiller roster have been directly influenced by Citizen's Arrest's past releases, and we're proud to bring you a new release on equal footing with their legacy.
Red vinyl available for mailorder only

PKR-038: NO FAITH - s/t LP
Grinding, noise-saturated reality, likely to damage your hearing and your brain. 3/4 of fan-fave VACCINE as well as 1/3 of the legendary SQRM join forces to attack with violent blasts of power punctuated and couched with harsh and bleak bursts of noise. Lyrics provide commentary and observation on the political climate in Ireland, thankfully free of preachy solutions.
Clear/white vinyl available for mailorder only

OMEGAS - NY Terminator 7"
The Omegas latest 5-song E.P. helps to make the longstanding case, that at any given time, there will always be a couple good French Canadian bands (VioVod; Capitalist Alienation; etc.). This band is the New York <--> Montreal connection (look it up) performing the kind of tunefully skanktastic cuts made famous by basically any band on the NY Thrash comp in 1982. It's 2011 though, and Painkiller brings you another slab of Omega-ish braincell smashing destruction.

First 150 on white vinyl for mailorder

GIVE - Pedal Pushing 7"
One of three GIVE singles released this fall on a spread of labels, but this one is obviously the best because we released it. The Washington Post (or Times) called them "not-quite-hardcore" for a "not-quite-hardcore" town which is weird because Boston (the town of Rival Mob -- alternately, the Town of Hardcore for Hardcore) likes them very much. This would fit in nicely in the DC scene of '86-'89 with a lot of jangled guitar interplay, uplifting and honest vocals, and of course a recording via the great Don Zientara @ Inner Ear studios.

First 150 on green vinyl for mailorder


UP NEXT:

NO FAITH - s/t 12"
Members of Vaccine and SQRM getting together to make some noise-laden blasts of hardcore.

CITIZENS ARREST - Soaked In Others Blood 7"
Vinyl pressing of CXA's recent digital-only 4-song ep.

LATER ON:
Hoax 3rd 7" and some other stuff that sounds like hardcore music.
