Cripple Bastards

And the onslaught begins! The weeks around Maryland Death Fest (lineup) mean tons of great shows from touring bands heading to the fest. One of the most exciting will take place on May 25th at Public Assembly when long-standing Italian grinders Cripple Bastards will team up with an unstoppable lineup featuring Swedish grinders Regurgitate, Australians The Kill, and New Mexico's Noisear (featuring Bryan Fajardo of Kill The Client/Phobia)! $15 gets you in the door (if you're 18+).

Noisear will welcome their new LP Subvert The Dominant Paradigm on February 1st via Relapse. The first track to surface from the LP, "Global Warning", recently surfaced on a label sampler and is available for download alone or in their sampler above.

Cripple Bastards recently dropped their 4xCD Age Of Vandalism boxset, which includes all of their previous tapes, demos, 7"s, and unreleased material from 1986 - 1993. That's 1,036 tracks of grindcore, so order it if you dare via Selfmadegod Records.

German thrashers Destruction will link up with Destroyer 666 to play BB King's on May 11th. Tickets go on sale January 5th at noon. The show is one of an ongoing tour, which will include a D666 date at Maryland Death Fest. Destroyer 666 is currently working on their new LP Siege.

Look for more MDF-related shows to be announced in the coming weeks.

Other non-MDF notable shows have also recently appeared. The Acheron will host The Osedax (mem-Psyopus), Misanthropic Noise, Backslider, and Curandera on February 5th. Two days later, Vilipend will team up with Pristina to play Precious Metal at Lit Lounge (on 2/7).
