About this product

The infancy of Atlanta, GA's Kinetic Dissent dates back to around 1984 with a small group of friends writing and recording initial ideas in a four-track home studio. Having immediately set out to be an all-original band, once solidified as Kinetic Dissent in 1987, the group quickly set out to work on a six-song demo, The Fall of Individualism, that same year. The core lineup-Dwight Irvin (vocals), Stephen Danyo (guitar), and Ed Reimer (drums)-was then joined by new bassist Troy Stephens and the return of early guitarist Rick MacConnell. As a five-piece, the band commenced performing live and subsequently recorded the four-song Controlled Reaction demo in 1988 at Audio Animations in Smyrna, GA.The strengths of that demo landed KINETIC DISSENTa deal with Roadrunner imprint Roadracer Records. The tag covered the band for one night at Musicplex Studios in Atlanta to demo four new songs that would eventually be re-recorded for their full-length debut. That album, I Will Fight No More Forever (1991)-the group's lone proper -remains an unsung masterpiece of truly unique and innovative progressive thrash metal. However, despite having opened for the likes of Death Angel, Pantera, Type O Negative, Fates Warning, etc., Kinetic Dissent never received proper tour support to promote the album. Danyo left, and the remaining quartet self-financed the recording of three new songs in 1992. Roadracer decided to pass, and within a year this promising young outfit had run it's course far too soon.Now, nearly three decades later, Divebomb Records is excited to present Controlled Reaction-The Demo Anthology a complete, 17-track collection of all of Kinetic Dissent's demo recordings. This marks the material's first time on CD, with several tracks being presented for the first time ever! Completely remastered by Jamie King Audio, the disc will be packaged with one of the tag's trademark th

They don't make them like this anymore, the well scrubbed Londoneering indiepoptastic quartet Hatcham Social consist of Toby Kidd, Finn Kidd, Dave Fineberg and the multitasking new boy Jerome Watson. YOU DIG THE TUNNEL, I'LL HIDE THE SOIL is Hatcham Social's debut album. Recorded at big mushroom studios in the north of England with the Charlatans singer Tim Burgess and Jim Spencer at the controls, this is a spiky, sparky collection of itching pop tunes which hark back to a time of musical innocence.

THE MOST IMPERATIVE DOOM METAL BAND SINCE THERGOTHON, EARLY MY DYING BRIDE AND CATACOMBS !!! The monumental modern funeral doom act, Adversvm, has joined the infernal horde known as the Moribund Cult! Established in Germany, 2015, Adversvm came forth with a mission, one which they have clearly accomplished To create art more sinister than black metal and death metal, and to manifest this sound with apocalyptic verses. InchDysangelionInch is the 2nd full-length recording from the tenebrous Titans and will serve as their debut on Moribund Records. InchDysangelionInch is a powerfully ominous offering; every note is drenched in darkness, creeping with the icy touch of the abyss and every beat is tell-tale of your doom! Shadowy, atmospheric interludes collide with utterly crushing and mesmeric death / doom passages. Highlighted against the dense structuring of mixed vocals and bludgeoning pulse, is terrifically tormented guitar work. Chorded ataxia suddenly rots, as transient austerity emerges, and then sloughs into murky, down-tuned dismal euphany. As a perpetually swinging transmitter of tempestuous conviction releases furious hearts from status quos paradigms, witness Adversvm's Apocalyptic awakening as InchDysangelionInch crushes All!A New ERA of DOOM Has Arrived!!!

After eleven years of releasing albums and touring the world, Khemmis' 5th full length record is a dense, blood-infused honey for the ear. A grand spiritual celebration of heavy metal, a concept album framed as a ritual of musical freedom that starts with the pounding rhythms of InchInvocation of the DreamerInch and culminates with the starlit exaltation of InchBenediction Tones.Inch
