for the patience over the past couple of weeks. Keep an eye on the site
for updates. Also, Trancelike Void will be performing their first live

definitely don't want to miss if you have the chance! See the flyer below
for details.

2/1/10: yesterday's catalog update came complete with some erroneous Paypal code that wouldn't allow the new items to be added to the cart. That issue has been resolved entirely due to my lovely wife who agreed to help when I was ready to burn the PC at the stake. Everything should be back to normal. Again, my apologies to those customers affected and my thanks to those that continued with the order anyway. Your support is appreciated!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- We are very proud to officially announce two new projects that will be released in the coming months. A mCD release from Trancelike Void and a full length album Lux Divina. A date has not yet been established for the TLV release, but the Lux Divina album is slated for a September 9th release along with the debut full length from Darkness Undying. We are also planning a Darkness Undying CD release show for September 18th in Columbus. It will mark the first time the band has played here in a couple of years, so you will not want to miss out. More details will be posted as they become available.
- We are also trying to address the issue of the missing images in the catalog section. We're removing and re-adding images one at a time, so it may take a while.

4/29/09: a quick update on the Molested reissues:
- the layout for the CD version is complete and in house. We expect to send this to press by the end of the week. We will post a release date once we have confirmation from the printer.
- our copies of the LP version have finally arrived from Germany and are available in the Catalog section. We would like to state up front, unfortunately, that it was apparently a rough trip for the sleeves and the majority of them have bent corners and, in a few cases, some wear along the side. It isn't significant, but the sleeves are not in mint condition as we would have hoped. The vinyl was not adversely impacted in any way.
- we finally have copies of the Marblebog / Vorkuta 7" available. As was reported earlier, the USPS STOLE about 200 copies of the gold vinyl version, leaving us with approximately 50 total.
We would like to send our thanks and immense gratitude to Jeffrey and Autopsy Kitchen. Once it became reality that the Postal Service was unable (unwilling) to do anything about their own felonious activity and would not be returning our inventory, Jeffrey insisted on sending us a portion of the Red/Pink Marble copies from his own stock to help us recoup our costs. That certainly wasn't necessary or expected, but he did it anyway. While it is already widely known, we would like to reiterate what a class act Jeffrey is and how much we appreciate that he was willing to stand with us through this bullshit. As cliché as it may sound, the gesture will not be forgotten. Thanks again, man.
