dead truth records: 2x xbishopx 7"

xbishopx - bless the dead 7"
this 7" came out in 2007, one year after their first full length "suicide party" but was actually recorded as a demo in 2004. the three songs are quite heavy and they obviously stood true to their sound as "drugs" is pretty much in the same vein. as an extra cover song you get the most apparent band covered there is for an edge band. almighty minor threat!
lovely three-way colour split. didn't find pressing informations. dead truth records.

xbishopx - asylum
this is their latest release from 2009. the two songs on side 1 is regular xbishopx quality. short, heavy, direct, dynamic. you gotta love it! side 2 contains a further seems forever cover song "pictures of shorelines". the singer gets even melodic. chanting actually :) surprising but cool, somehow.
clear green vinyl. didn't find pressing info, either. dead truth records.
since their "drugs"-release has really grown on me, i'm excited to get the whole vinyl discography of them. the only piece that's missing is the "suicide party" 12". unlike the other stuff (all released by dead truth records) "suicide party" was released by seventh dagger records and is sold out, unfortunately. ebay seems to be the obvious solution. so i got to wait until it shows up...
