INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY ACTION FOR ROJAVA!
https://www.epidemicrecords.net/store/19-epidemic-records
Order from this link: 25% of all the sales of all Epidemic Records releases and merch will be donated to the humanitarian aid organization CADUS e.V. and the Jinwar Free Woman’s Village.
We join the collective effort of many other labels of friends and partners from all over the World in support of the population of Rojava.
All orders from Today until Saturday 26th, 1 full week.
Here’s a collective statement from all the labels involved.

PUNKS FOR ROJAVA! Solidarity is a weapon!

The current level of brutality in the world is shocking and leaves us speechless. As incomprehensible as it all may be, we cannot let ourselves fall into a state of shock. We need to transform our speechlessness into cries of protest. It is time to give voice to our rage and fight the conditions in the world that are making us sick and leaving others dead. It is time to take a stand!

We cannot lose our solidarity in this cold world because it is our weapon in the fight for a humane existence.

In order to help break the silence and to show solidarity with the people and the revolution in Rojava, we – a collective of DIY Record Labels from all over the world – will be donating 25% of our proceeds in the coming week to the humanitarian aid organization Cadus and the Jinwar Free Woman’s Village. Because ours is a collective struggle.

Get active and take part in demonstrations and protests. The fascist aggression of the turkish army is also an attack upon us and our ideals.

It may seem small, but it’s a start!

FIERCE, metal band based in Trieste, Venice and Padova (Italy) announce their debut full lenght.
The album, titled “Eclipsed From The Duat”, follows a demo (2016, Reabsorption) and an EP (2017, Ashes).
This new work is going to be released by Epidemic Records, Shove Records (both from Italy) e the danish Rakkerpak Records.
They unveiled a first piece of this new work in the summer, with the single “V.I.T.R.I.O.L.” and now Fierce is asking the single  “The Ruins Of A Dying Kingdom” to represent the sounds of this new album.
The band comment:
“The Ruins of a Dying Kingdom is about the realization that all the things we thought defined us, like our education, values, social position, personality and so on are just a product of what is expected from us and what we’ve been told to be in this life. The bewilderment that follows could be devastating, because we no longer know where to turn to find ourselves and what to do to give a meaning to our existence. If we had enough courage to leave these safe ruins behind and insist in our quest in the outer darkness though, we could be lucky enough to catch a small glimpse of that light that will act as a beacon, making us understand that the destruction happened at the beginning was the best thing that could ever happened to us and the only way to start becoming what we really are.”

The single comes out as a lyric video, which is warming up the arena for the official album release: October 25th it wil be available digitally and the preorders for the vinyl edition (to be available in December) will start on the same day.

On top of what already appears as one of the best metal releases of the year, an amazing album artwork by ViewFromTheCoffin.

Fierce has for shows coming up in November:
1/11 Lubiana (Slovenia) – Orto Bar
2/11 Pula (Croatia) – Monteparadiso
8/11 Perugia (Italy) – TBC
9/11 L’Aquila (Italy) – Garbage Live Club

Melodic hardcore punk metalheads La Armada from Chicago are coming to Europe this summer.
They have just announced a bunch of shows in July and August, with appearances at  some of the main events and festivals.
They are ready to bring their signature latino infused hardcore punk sounds to the Old World, along with their outspoken and clever political message.
Their album “Anti-Colonial Vol. 1, out via Creep Records (US) and Epidemic Records (Europe), is a call for resistance in reaction to increased visibility and power in the hands of the “alternative right”, religious extremists and white supremacists in the United States and worldwide.
La Armada is a mix of wild, sharp and heavy riffs, angry vocals, irresistible breakdowns; a thrash / hardcore / punk crossover with politically meaningful lyrics.
An explosive sound, ready to detonate. Europe: get ready!
