Deep Six Records: News

Slated for Feburary, 2012:

Low Threat Profile- Middle Aged Casualty 7"
Reduced down to it's original two-piece core with Bob on drums and Matt on guitar/vox, LTP deliver another nine scoops of vanilla hardcore with a dollop of whip cream and a "f*ck you" on top.

Manpig- The Grand Negative 12" and CD
The back story on this one is way too long to get into so let's just cut to the chase. This is an '05 re-recording of the '92 original recording that was lost by the studio. Drumming by RD Davies and guitars/vocals by Matt Domino. There are 17 tracks on the 12" with 3 extra tracks on the CD. The CD also contains the original instrumental rough mix with bass being played by Dave Ring. Classic DRAWBLANK procrastination at it's finest!

Just a reminder that we have releases on vinyl that you can only find in CD format from their original label pressings. Recent rereleases include Looking For An Answer- Eterno Treblinka, Gatefold 12" on red marble/splatter vinyl, as well as all of Landmine Marathon's full length releases. Recent rereleases include their newest release, Gallows, 12" on turquoise and white marble vinyl and their first release, Rusted Eyes Awake, 12" on puke green marble/splatter vinyl.

The lacquers have just been cut for two upcoming releases. The first is a new LP from the hardest working fastcore unit in Idaho, Hummingbird of Death! The second release is a split 7" with Sidetracked and Self Inflicted. Hooray for new releases and double hooray for new bands on Deep Six!

9/9/11:
As some of you may already know, several moons back some really lucky buckaroos at Scion were given a grind/thrash/metal bomb and Scion let them run with it. In turn, they've sponsored countless shows across the nation. On March 5th, 2011 they hosted the Scion Rock Fest in Pomona, California. Check out their high quality video footage of the bands that played, including our very own Bastard Noise performing "Earth on a Stretcher" and "Pincer's Movement" as well as an interview. No joke... this is high quality audio and video!

9/6/11:
We've had a few delays for releases set to be ready on September 5th but expect them to be ready this month sometime. They are the following:
Bastard Noise- Skulldozer 12" and CD
Cripple Bastards- Frammenti Di Vita 12" and bonus 7"
Looking for an Answer- Eterno Treblinka 12"
Reproach- The Bitter End 12"

Extortion represses ripe and ready for the pickin'! Get them now before they're out of print again and you have to wait painful amounts of time in hopes of another repress. Here's what we got:
Extortion/Agents of Abhorrance 7"
Extortion- Control 7"
Extortion- Degenerate 12"
Extortion- Sick 12"

3/18/11:
Fast Asleep from Santa Cruz, CA are added to the Deep Six family. They like it in your face and in your liver. Riffs flow like a river of IPA and a hangover is imminent. Fast Asleep plan on recording in June and you can also check them out on the upcoming Reality part #5 7" coming soon. Get it? Live it. Get Livid. Fast Asleep!

2/23/11:
Extreme Noise Terror has very sadly lost one of their founding members, vocalist Phil Vane. The band has not released any details as of yet but they have confirmed that one of the inventors of crust has passed away at the young age of 46. Deep Six Records is incredibly bummed to lose such an innovative and enthusiastic, die hard punk.

2/11/11:
Weekend Nachos are currently working on their latest full-length, "WORTHLESS", which will hopefully be done by the springtime. Faster, heavier, and more hateful than ever before!

Bastard Noise is always up to something, so here's what's up, directly from bassist and vocalist, Eric Wood:
"Bastard Noise has recently visited the recording studio (in late January) documenting its new line-up of ARTZ/CONNELL/WOOD with four of seven new compositions set in stone (another basic tracking appointment is needed this month of february to finish just the "raw" bass and drums). All initial recording is being done @ TRENCH STUDIOS (PHOBIA/D.I.S./EXHUMED among others) and once the basics are "captured", the files will be taken to master producer MICHAEL ROZON ("ROGUE ASTRONAUT" / "THE RED LIST" / "A CULTURE OF MONSTERS" ) for bass overdubs, vocals, mixing and editing. Six of these tracks will end up on our brand new upcoming full length 12" LP/CD to be titled "SKULLDOZER" and one epic piece will be featured on the upcoming CREATION IS CRUCIFIXTION/BASTARD NOISE split 12" EP.
Aimee, our brand new vocalist/electronics member is doing amazing work as the "new skull" and has given our line-up the freshest energy we have felt in a very long time! She is a "total keeper"!
BASTARD NOISE also has another full length 12" LP release upcoming that is ALL lost M.I.T.B. tracks now adopted by this modern line-up. Only WOOD's original bass track and CONNELL's original drum tracks have been kept and now the additional work has begun to complete this long awaited session. Initial tracking was done over thirteen years ago and the final recordings will feature WOOD, CONNELL, BEATTIE (NO COMMENT / M.I.T.B. / LOW THREAT PROFILE / DEAD LANGUAGE), new BASTARD NOISE member AIMEE ARTZ (PROGERIA), AMBER ASYLUM founder and vocalist/violinist KRIS FORCE, and NOLAN (THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE) - this is also being worked on simultaneously. As well an ALL electronic 12" split LP between ACTUARY/BASTARD NOISE is moving slowly towards a release date."

On April 2 & 3 Reproach will be recording their new LP "Hopeless" at the legendary Studio 195. 14 new songs, clocking in at around 15 minutes probably. From the mouths of Reproach: "We really worked off our ass for the new material, poured our heart and soul into it and they're some of the most pissed off songs we ever made. Andrei Bouzikov is taking care of the full color artwork so you know it's gonna be killer. Deep Six will put it out on vinyl in the USA and Crew For Life is doing a CD version for all the Japanese thrashpunks out there! Not sure yet about a European release."

1/27/11:
Phobia has been hard at work as usual and has a stream of new releases in the works including a split with Jesus Cross, a US release of their split with Gadget, a four way split with PLF, Suffering Mind, and Audio Kollapse. Last but not least, Phobia will also be releasing a seven inch on Deep Six in the near future.

Today is the day that This Comp Kills Fascists Volume 2 on double vinyl is out! Extortion, Lack of Interest, Despise You, and many more are on this compilation.

The long awaited El Rostro de la Muerte from Hirax has been released and has been well worth the wait. It's rare that I get excited about a metal release because so much of it tends to be not a confused mess of not-very-metal boredom. Thank goodness (or evilness) that Hirax made sure to not only stay away from boring metal, they wiped it off the face of the earth with this new release. Hands down some of the best metal I've heard since I was a kid. Fresh, over-the-top, and totally bad ass!!! Check out our Sounbytes page to get a feel for what I'm ranting and raving about.

Reproach is doing a European tour opening for Municipal Waste and Victims (damn lucky fuckers!). What an incredible bill! Check out our Tours page for all the shows and locations.

Weekend Nachos' newest release, Unforgivable, is finally out on Deep Six Records. The only problem is all of the distributors bought so many copies that Deep Six is already sold out of them!!! However, here is an easy way to find where to order them. Google the following words: Weekend Nachos, Unforgivable, distribution. Plenty of distributors will pop right up.

Hirax is tenatively scheduled to release their full length entitled El Rostro De La Muerte on vinyl and CD on Deep Six Records at the beginning of June 09. Also, for those Hirax fans out there, Youtube has a lot of live performances of Hirax for your viewing pleasure. Check them out!

Reproach, from the land famous for beer, chocolate, and its multilingual citizens, will be releasing more mayhem on Deep Six Records. In May 09 look for the re-release of their self-titled LP. This will be a split release with Holy Shit! Records. Don't worry, new stuff will be following as another split release between Deep Six and Holy Shit! Records will be putting out the new Reproach LP (date not set in stone yet).

3/28/09:

Weekend Nachos is currently working on their next release, which will be their 2nd full-length, Unforgivable, to be released on Deep Six Records in May (hopefully just in time for Maryland Death Fest). A CD version will be available as well, in addition to the 12" vinyl. Shows, as always, are few and far between as they need to focus on practicing and recording right now, but a summer tour is in the works, as well as appearances at 3 upcoming fests: Midwest Fuck Fest, Maryland Death Fest, and Dudefest.
They have also posted a new merchandise blog.
