DOOM - FUCK PEACEVILLE
Reissue of this legendary Doom record with completely new artwork. When their former label Peaceville Records was sold to the major-label Music for Nations and with that the licences to the first Doom record, they decided to record all their early stuff again. The title was "Fuck Peaceville", it was released by Profane Existence and sold almost 10000 copies. This version is sold out and rare. The original member Bri Talbot made a new master of all 37 songs, and "Fuck Peaceville" was re-released by Twisted Chords now. Additionally the artwork was improved and looks much better than the original. Doom was founded in 1987 and in their first phase they were around until 1990. In this period they released the "War Crimes" LP, the "Bury the Debt-Not the Dead" split LP together with No Security and the "Total Doom"-CD. The legendary "Police Bastard" 7" of that time is nowadays the bestselling Crust single of all times. The band was not really convinced of the sound of the "War Crimes" LP and so "Fuck Peaceville" was their chance not only to irritate their old label, but to record the early songs with a much better sound. "Fuck Peaceville" contains 37 songs in 64 minutes. Besides the ironic "Bastard File In the Urethra of Paul Halmshaw" it has all the hits like "Police Bastard" and "Slave to Convention". It is angry , fast and direct Crust Punk, and together with Discharge is the inspiration for most bands in this genre. They have short lyrics directly screaming out what has to be said. After their split Doom members were in bands like Extreme Noise Terror, Napalm Death, Dirt, Sore Throat and Police Bastard. The double LP has a fold-out-cover, a poster and comes with download coupon!

RUINS - INCIDENTS
Ruins from Bielefeld release their first full-length LP on Twisted Chords. After a demo and a split LP with Kyrest, Ruins now unleash an outstanding record which is in line with today's en vogue neocrust bands like Alpinist, Fall of Efrafa or Kylesa. Still, it's not simply another clone of Tragedy and the likes. This monster combines gloomy, uneasy atmosphere, rich sound walls, technical skill and incredible power. The record starts slowly and captivates you immediately, it casts a spell and you can not escape. Grim, epic, exciting and filled with a desperate voice, accompanied by ear-splitting melodies. Members of Patsy O'Hara, KPX and Shoyu Squad play in Ruins, the band tours endlessly and these five songs with nearly 33 minutes playing time will ensure that it won't be forgotten any time soon. Mixed at Tonmeisterei Oldenburg, mastered by Brad Boatright (From Ashes Rise).. The record comes with beautiful dark artwork, double-sided A2 lyrics poster, a black inner sleeve and a download code.

ACROSS THE BORDER - FOLKPUNK AIR-RAID
Right in time for the band's 20th anniversary and three years after the reunion album "Loyalty", Across the Border release their new album. "Folkpunk Airraid" dares to step back to the beginnings of the band: more classical folk and less punkrock with some more acoustic influences. So arise wonderful folk-punk anthems, that do not forget where they come from and never seem to be too soft. Catchy and danceable still having outbreaks in the direction of classic punk rock with electric guitars and sing-a-longs. In 2011 Across the Border are versed in playing their instruments, integrating a half-dozen guest musicians with mandolin, flute, violin and trombone, have two guest-vocalists and a lot of great new songs. 17 songs with almost 50 minutes playing-time, including the magnificent Rio Reiser / Ton Steine Scherben-cover "Übers Meer". Hit after hit, without any fillers. The Plastic Bomb fanzine wrote: " Every folkpunk-band has to be measured at Across the Border" and that is exactly the point: Across the Border are far from standing still, proving that even 20 years of band history are not enough. The CD comes with beautiful artwork, including a 20-page booklet!

TRACKLISTING:  01. SOLDIER JOHN 02. AWAY 03. FUCKED UP WORLD 04. OUT OF CONTROL 05. ACROSS THE BORDER I 06. ROSEMARY 07. SILENT AND SLOW 08. MARRY ME OR BURY ME 09. ACROSS THE BORDER II 10. WHAT IF MEN 11. THE ANARCHIST 12. BUCKFAST 13. IRISH AIR-RAID OVER GERMANY 14. ACROSS THE BORDER III 15. SLEEPERS AWAKE 16. AFTER THE RAIN 17. UBERS MEER

ACROSS THE BORDER - HAG SONGS
Re-release of the first, long time sold out Across the Border album from 1994 with new artwork and one exclusive bonus track. "Hag Songs" was the great opening for Across the Border: a danceable, wild mixture of classic folk and punkrock. Think of the Pogues and the Levellers teaming up with fast guitar songs and political lyrics far beyond any irrelevance. On the recording of "Hag Songs" Across the Border was a seven piece band with guitar, bass, drums, mandolin, violin and accordion. This album presents some of their all-time-hits like "Follow Your Girl (Soldier John)", "Dance Around the Fire" and the anthem "Can't Love This Country". For the 15th jubilee of "Hag Songs" the album is now re-released with all original songs and one new, exclusive version of "Can't Love This Country" featuring Chaoze One. A mixture of folk-punk and hiphop, you've never heard before. The CD comes with new artwork, 16 page booklet including all lyrics, photos and liner notes from the German punkrock-author Klaus N. Frick. 15 years later "Hag Songs" is still a fantastic album full of hits combining heart, mind and rebellion to an amazing ensemble!

TRACKLISTING:  01. FOLLOW YOUR GIRL (SOLDIER JOHN) 02. I CAN'T LOVE THIS COUNTRY 03. YOU SQUAT MY HEART 04. THE DANCE AROUND THE FIRE 05. TEARS 06. THE SEED 07. GHOSTS OF THE PAST 08. BEAUTIFUL WORLD 09. HAG SONG 10. A NEW ENGLAND 11. IN OUR HAND 12. I CAN'T LOVE THIS COUTRY 2.0 FEAT. CHAOZE ONE

M.D.C. - HEY COP, IF I HAD A FACE LIKE YOURS
MDC are one of the few living legends of punkrock, who are still true today. Beside "Millions of Dead Cops" the "Hey Cop!." record was one of the best and most essential MDC albums.

Dave Dictor and Matt Freeman, who today has great success with Rancid, can beo heard on this record. "Hey Cop!" is now re-released on this German indie label with new artwork.

M.D.C. - MILLIONS OF DEAD COPS/MORE DEAD COPS
I guess (and I hope that) there is no need to say more about MDC than just the name of the band. We all know and appreciate MDC as one of the most important hardcore bands to come out of the USA. "Millions of Dead Cops", the first MDC LP from 1981, was responsible for the cult around the band and the best hardcore songs ever (take for example "Born To Die", "John Wayne Was A Nazi", "Kill The Light" and many more). Therefore we are really proud to re-release this wonderful record on one CD with the "More Dead Cops" album as a bonus.

TRACKLISTING:  01. BUSINESS IS ON PARADE 02. DEAD COPS I-II/AMERICA'S SO STRAIGHT 03. BORN TO DIE 04. CORPORATE DEATHBURGER 05. VIOLENT REDNECKS 06. I REMEMBER 07. JOHN WAYNE WAS A NAZI 08. DICK FOR BRAINS 09. I HATE WORK 10. MY FAMILY IS A LITTLE WEIRD 11. GREEDY AND PATHETIC 12. CHURCH AND STATE 13. KILL THE LIGHT 14. AMERICAN ACHEIVEMENTS I-II 15. JOHN WAYNE WAS A NAZI 16. BORN TO DIE 17. MULTI DEATH CORPORATION 18. SELFISH SHIT 19. RADIOACTIVE CHOCOLATE 20. NO PLACE TO PISS 21. KLEPTOMANIAC 22. CHICKEN SQUAWK 23. PECKING ORDER 24. PAY TO COME ALONG 25. (R)EVOLUTION'S IN ROCK
