A389's Anniversary Bash...

...will see the release of a bunch of new records from A389. And for those of us that cannot make said bash, these will be hitting the A389 webstore shortly thereafter.

Pictured above is the Integrity Kingdom of Heaven 7" which features all of the tracks that the Melnick era band recorded with drummer David Nicholi Araca (whose life was tragically cut short) for the first time ever on vinyl.  It looks great.

Integrity by A389Recordings

This little baby is the "Evacuate" Flexi 7" from Integrity. If you have never heard the band's take on this classic hardcore anthem from Negative Approach, then you are missing out... limited and probably a bonus item in the package deal.

Next up is Junior Bruce, the new vehicle for the formal vocalist of the almighty Bloodlet (and the criminally underrated Hope & Suicide), Scott Angelacos. The demo is pretty sweet; so, I am anxiously awaiting this record.

The other two records include the 7" from Unholy Majesty and the Young and in the Way 2x12"... all good stuff.

Integrity Detonate World's Plague 7 Pre-Order

This release looks to be awesome. If you have been paying attention at all to Integrity's output the last year or so, they have released some great music in the split with Creepout, the VVe Are The End single, and the LA Holy Terror compilation. Now, Detonate World's Plague 7 is a new shot across the bow from Dwid Hellion and his current writing partner, Orr.

Pre-orders are up for this release and includes the following:

• Transparent purple 12" vinyl ltd 250

• INTEGRITY "Thee DestroyORR" CD

• 12" long embroidered INTEGRITY iron on patch



The tracklisting for this LP follows:

• DETONATE WORLDS PLAGUE
• BEASTS AS GODS
• SERMON THIRTEEN
• ORRCHIDA
• VVE HAVE HELPED OTHERS ESCAPE
• ALLISNONE
• LUCIFER BEFORE THE DAY DOTH GO


The CD included in this package, Thee DestoyORR, compiles all the aforementioned output from the last year or so that has been co-written with Orr and is an awesome jumping on point if you have yet to hear what Integrity has been up to lately.

That tracklisting is:

• DETONATE WORLDS PLAGUE
• BEASTS AS GODS
• SERMON THIRTEEN
• ORRCHIDA
• VVE HAVE HELPED OTHERS ESCAPE
• ALLISNONE
• LUCIFER BEFORE THE DAY DOTH GO
• LOVE IS THE ONLY VVEAPON
• LET THE NIGHT ROAR
• VVE ARE THE END
• BENEATH BLACK FLAMES VVE RIDE
• VVAITING FOR THE SUN (acoustic)
• VVAITING FOR THE SUN (TO BURN OUT MY EYES)
• BLACK HEKSEN RISE
• NO POVVER (ZOUO COVER)
• INTERVIEW

In any case, this should prove to be an excellent release. Do not sleep on it, because Integrity records go quickly.

Order here.

Record Store Day Highlight II : Integrity

This made My Day

To celebrate Record Store Day (April 16th 2011) Organized Crime Records have teamed up with some shitbird bands to bring you the No Peace/ War 7" compilation. No Peace/ War was conceived nearly 2 decades ago by Dwid Van Hellion of INTEGRITY. The compilation was to include some of his favorite western hardcore bands paying homage to some of his favorite Japanese hardcore bands. Originally it was scheduled to be one of the seminal Blood Book 7" singles. Unfortunately No Peace/ War was indefinitely shelved due to unforeseen forces. Now 17 years later the compilation will finally see the light of day. Included on No Peace/ War are exclusive tracks by INTEGRITY, GEHENNA, VVEGAS, CAPE OF BATS and ROT IN HELL each covering their favorite Japanese hardcore songs.

You can pick it up on 04/16/11 one of these shops.

Integrity at Scion LA This Past Weekend

Here is some live video of Integrity from this past weekend. The set list was real good, and thankfully these are available for those of us unable to attend. Enjoy:

Devils Night Pre-Orders from A389 Records

A389 Records has a ton of new records coming out and the pre-orders go live for this next batch in two days:


















This is the US Version of the Integrity / Creepout split 7", which was previously only available from Japan. It will be a lot less money for those of us who waited for it to come out domestically.






















This is the Discography LP for Roses Never Fade (a project of members of Integrity and Pale Creation) all collected into an easy to get package. This is a haunting band, and it is awesome to see this coming out finally.




















This is the comeback record for Mighty Sphincter.























This is awesome, Seven Sisters Of Sleep rule, check out this video from them to see what I mean.
























This little tidbit is the bonus 7" if you purchase all of the above records in one package. Dwid from Integrity singing with Pulling Teeth doing a Mighty Sphincter Cover and Nick from Pale Creation doing the same in front of Mighty Sphincter themselves. Sure to be a neat addition to the collection.

Integrity live 7.17

Here is some live footage from Integrity on 7.17...

I wanted to go to this, but could not make it. At least there is video for those of us who could not make it.

Enjoy

Those Who Fear Tomorrow

Those Who Fear Tomorrow is one of my favorite Integrity albums; when the album was re-issued on CD, I reviewed it for Scene Point Blank (check out the review here if you are so inclined) and stand by what I said then, "A milestone in hardcore music and a must have record, Those Who Fear Tomorrow stands as one of the greatest hardcore albums ever."

If you like hardcore, metal, and whatever heavy music genre that kids listen to these days, this album is cornerstone for it all. This is your chance to own this on vinyl without paying exorbitant ebay prices for it.

Pre-order it at Organized Crime Records .

Three variations

200 on solid pink

320 on clear with black swirls (and Stephen Kasner bonus album cover)

680 on solid red and said Stephen Kasner album cover

These are sure to go quick. So, don't wait.

Integrity VVe Are The End 7" Pre-orders are up

Just thought I would drop a note showing the new Integrity 7" coming out on Magic Bullet is up for pre-order here. There is a t-shirt package available as well that comes with the 7" on Grey (limited to 100 copies). Otherwise the 7" is on black and one-sided with the iconic Integrity skull laser etched on the back.

Integrity's Onslaught Continues

Hot on the heals of The Blackest Curse, comes this little slab of vinyl via Magic Bullet.

The VVe Are The End / Beneath Black Flames We Ride single is two songs with an etched B-Side. It looks awesome. The songs are awesome. Dwid and company are definitely putting out quality recordings right now.

Next Week...Integrity The Blackest Curse

I am so psyched. The Blackest Curse from Integrity is finally out on Tuesday. This is another record to be excited about its release, and I surely am.

Here is the trailer for the album:

Integrity The Blackest Curse Pre-orders Are Finally Up

Yes, I am a little late with this, as this monster actually went up for pre-order on LP earlier this week. Three colors available from Deathwish here. Two other colors will be available for all the vinyl nerds.

The date for this to be in stores is May 25th, so it should be shipping very soon. I can't wait to hear this.

The Blackest Curse...

...will be seeing the light of day in May. I am extremely excited, having been waiting for this for years.

The Blackest Curse Is finally coming out...

...and so is a bunch of other records by Integrity.

The first here is the Red version of their 2003 record on Deathwish Inc, To Die For. This can be had from A389 Recordings under the Pre-Orders heading. Get it by itself or in a package deal that will also net a bonus Integrity / Pale Creation - split 7" (as well as a new 7" from Pale Creation, the LP from Caulfield). If you missed out on the Blue version of To Die For that A389 released earlier this year, now is your chance to not pay ebay prices for this 10".

This year is going to be a big year for Integrity releases as the band has already released the aforementioned Blue version of To Die For as well as the Grace Of The Unholy 7" (both on A389 Recordings) and the In Contrast Of Sin 7" repress on Organized Crime. Due out this year from Organized Crime are vinyl re-issues of the band's earlier Victory catalog including Systems Overload, Humanity Is The Devil, Seasons In The Size Of Days, and the first album from Integrity, the essential, Those Who Fear Tomorrow. If the In Contrast Of Sin re-issue is any indication of how these will look, these LPs will turn out great. A389 Recordings also has the US version of the Integrity / Creepout split that came out last year in Japan. British label, 30 Days Of Night is putting out the Integrity / Rot In Hell split double 7" sometime this year as well, which looks awesome. Magic Bullet is putting out a Record Store Day 7" from Integrity as well (which is coming soon on April 10th); so, be on the lookout for that.

There maybe even more than that, but this is what I have come across.

But...This release here is one I have been waiting for quite a while to hear.

The Blackest Curse will be the latest LP from Integrity, and I cannot wait to hear; luckily, it is finally coming out May 25th via Deathwish Inc. A flurry of releases to document one of the more legendary hardcore bands.
