xDisciplex A.D. - Heaven And Hell [Facedown]

I'm still catching up with the records I've been receiving over the past month or so, this one I got in a nice little trade for a Danzig drug free shirt that I haven't been able to fit into since 2005, cheers for this Boardy.  This record came from the same press as the white LP I picked up from a guy on ebay for less than three quid earlier in the year, according to discogs.com this is out of 400, the most common, but only by 50.  I was fine just owning one copy of this, I can stomach that, I have one copy of the No Blood, No Altar Now LP and I haven't got a sick compulsion to collect every variant of that, but now I have two out of the three colours of Heaven And Hell I'm going to have to find the missing one from the set now aren't I. 

Total pressing info:
250 x white vinyl
350 x clear vinyl
400 x red vinyl

I've already got a Shockwave obsession, I've always been a big fan of Disciple but never really had much of their stuff on vinyl, I feel another collection brewing in me.  "To the bitter end I will survive."

Against The Current


EARTH CRISIS - To The Death (Century Media)
Earth Crisis. Now there's a band. Like Integrity they have a solid back catalogue bar one or two records. They reformed a little while back now and this new record "To The Death" has been out for a while too. I did a cheeky download of it when it was released and never really gave it any attention. I blasted it in the van with the lads recently and it is a corker. Production wise (courtesy of Tue Madsen) it's very thick and overproduced, but this plays well to ExC's sound perfectly. You've got songs about the amount of casualties the drug dealers cause through gang shootings and the drugs they actually deal, songs about drunk drivers and vegan til death. Classic Crisis. Karl's vocals sound even better on this record, when I first heard them I thought he sounded like a barking dog, certainly one of the most recognisable voices in hardcore.

In related news, I hear the drummer from Fallout Boy is filling in on their current tour, fair play for still being vegain sXe mate.
