Some of you may dig this. My friend Kieran has just put out his very first release on his upstart label, Slaney Records. The release is the first in a series of splits. I worked with him on getting things together for over a year. The first release was supposed to be between Scars (I reviewed them here long ago, remember?) and Forte.

Scars had their shit together, but Forte kind of dicked us over. Not intentionally, I don't think, but we just kept waiting and waiting and waiting, you know. Eventually Greg mentioned having to re-record a bunch of things due to their singer bailing, and them not having money, and so on. So it all just fell apart. I feel bad for Scars because they're stand-up dudes and had recorded some exclusive stuff for us. Hopefully Kieran can get something going with them soon.

Anyway, here's a flyer:

And here are links to both bands:

http://www.myspace.com/savindicator

The Vindicator stuff is all new, and it sounds killer! As does Metal Witch.

http://www.slaneyrecords.com

He sold off a huge chunk of his collection to start this label, so give him some business. He's a really great dude.

Both very cool bands, should be a really good split.

Fuck me, how about "The Dog Beneath the Skin" on Vindicator's mypace? One of the best new thrash tracks I've heard in ages.

Devoted Walnut, if you can put your Blur records down for one second, make sure you listen to it.

I think I have heard Vindicator before. My OCD isn't very fond of splits, but I will seriously consider purchasing this one. Sounds great. Kudos to your friend.

You are the first person to make me laugh today. Thank you good sir. Will listen.

EDIT: oh yeah I forgot, I need the newest version of flash to listen to songs on myspace. Sorry to Vindicator.

Possibly, times are hard at the moment but I'm paying a cheque in today so I'll have a root around for spending money...

Pretty much the story of the world. I would buy it, but like you I have no money.

But since they are not some obscure band form the 80's, they suck.

What a sad day for the extreme metal section of the forum, considering the above two posts are the most interesting this forum's been for months.

Why the hell does everybody take what I say so damn seriously? I know I am not the funniest person ever, but damn I can joke around too. Jesus christ.
