Ritual "Your Touch"

7" - $8.00
STREET DATE: 11/21/25
CAT#: SDR-146
LABEL: Sunday Drive

The lines “Your Touch sets me free” and “Go ahead and let me down” are simple, yet vivid—two emotions pulling in opposite directions. This is what Ritual does best: creating a dynamic of feelings backed by the sounds of driving and melodic alternative-rock.

“Your Touch” is their first new release since Closing In dropped in 2023. Since then, they’ve been busy playing show after show and becoming a staple in Austin’s music scene.

These new songs stretch further than anything they’ve done before. They’re softer in places, heavier in other and layered with vast tones to create the most Ritual sounding songs yet.

01. Your Touch
02. Drag

Planet B "Cult and Culture Podcast - Bonus 7" Single"

7" EP - $14.00
STREET DATE: 11/21/25
CAT#: 31G159
LABEL: Three One G

Limited edition 7” from Luke and Justin’s band Planet B to go with the Cult and Culture Podcast LP. Includes a cover of Grandmaster Flash & Melle Mel’s “White Lines (Don’t Do It)” with guest vocals from Johnny Whitney (The Blood Brothers).

The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor. He is best known as bassist/vocalist for bands such as Dead Cross, The Locust, and Deaf Club, among many others. Justin has come to know and work with a broad spectrum of captivating personalities and brilliant minds, many of which are key figures in the realm of popular culture and cult followings alike. Guests include a broad scope of musicians, producers, authors, filmmakers, and anyone passionate about what they do. In its infancy, segments were shorter, 10-20 minutes, and would be recorded while on tour. Since then, Pearson has collaborated with producer and musician Luke Henshaw (Planet B, Sonido de la Frontera) to build the idea into a proper podcast, now recorded at Penguin Studios in San Diego. The focus is not intended to be in any one realm, and because guests are friends and family, the conversations are frank, informal, well-informed and genuine.

Negative Blast "Destroy Myself For Fun"

LP - $17.25
STREET DATE: 11/14/25
CAT#: 31G157
LABEL: Three One G

Negative Blast formed in San Diego during the depths of the pandemic when longtime buds Rainier Pesebre (vocals) and Alexander Jacobelli (guitar) began trading riffs and ideas in isolation. Jacobelli and bassist Patrick Callaway were touring buddies in their respective bands Lewd Acts and Hour of the Wolf during the early 2000s hardcore punk renaissance. Within two weeks of Rain and Alex jamming ideas, Pat relocated from Chicago to San Diego, cementing the songwriting core of the band.

Jacobelli, who operates Sunsick Studio in La Mesa, engineered and mixed the band’s early recordings, allowing Negative Blast to develop and release material quickly. Their first EP, The First Four Months, was followed by DEMO 002. Initial shows featured Sam Rich (Del Vipers, Riverboat Gamblers) on drums before the group began work on their first LP, Echo Planet, released through Quiet Panic Records.

Midway through the record, Callaway reached out to Mario Rubalcaba (Earthless, Hot Snakes, Rocket From the Crypt), who joined on drums. With Rubalcaba, the band released a split with LA hardcore act SWEAT via Vitriol Records. In 2025, drummer Hunter Martinez (Decent Criminal, Human Issue) stepped in as a permanent member. His energy is captured on the band’s 2025 full-length, Destroy Myself For Fun. Negative Blast’s live résumé includes sharing stages with Botch, Unsane, Deaf Club, The Bled, Finch, Darkest Hour, Swing Kids, Clikatat Ikatowi, Lower Class Brats, The Bronx, SeeYouSpaceCowboy, Loma Prieta, City of Caterpillar, High Vis, and 7 Seconds, among others.

Secret World "Tomorrow Is A Mystery To Me"

LP - $17.25
STREET DATE: 11/07/25
CAT#: SDR-144
LABEL: Sunday Drive

Secret World deliver hearty, hardcore rock ‘n’ roll with an earnest charm. Comprised of friends who connected through the Sydney and Newcastle hardcore scenes, Secret World members played in other bands like SPEED, Trophy Eyes and Downside before forming the group in 2023; soon releasing their highly-praised EP Guilt Is Good in 2024, led by the anthemic single ‘Living Less’. Now, Secret World are on the verge of releasing their second EP Tomorrow Is A Mystery To Me.

Arriving on September 19 via Last Ride Records (AU/NZ), Sunday Drive Records (USA) and Ice Grills (JP), Tomorrow Is A Mystery To Me builds upon Secret World’s rock ‘n’ roll foundation with the urgency of hardcore punk and hook-laden choruses drawn from alt-rock sensibilities. While the EP is filled with emotive storytelling and extended anecdotes, it paints a clear picture of a band who are intent on seizing this moment, pushing forward with purpose, and giving it their absolute all.

Lead single ‘Good Faith’ features Sydney rock royalty Shogun (Royal Headache, Antenna) and fuses punchy and melodic vocals, leading into an infectious stadium-sized hook. Elsewhere, the ravaging ‘Repeat Offender’ is gritty and unapologetic; while the breezier riffs of ‘Everywhere Now’ trade aggression for reflection - a love letter to the hardcore scene and the friends they’ve lost along the way, blending grief with gratitude and everything in between.

Tomorrow Is A Mystery To Me was produced, recorded and mixed by Fletcher Matthews (Dear Seattle, Trophy Eyes) ** and mastered by Mike Kalajian at Rogue Planet (Quicksand, Saves The Day). Despite the clean sound, the EP still retains the energy of a sweat-drenched pub that’s packed to the brim, filled with sing-a-longs beside friends and strangers that you’ve just met. There’s no doubt that Secret World songs are made to be experienced live, with the band already selling out their own headline shows in Australia and playing alongside internationals like Basement, Drain and No Pressure.

Secret World are soon taking to the United States for the first time, touring alongside UK champions High Vis; and also playing at Furnace Fest with pioneers like Jimmy Eat World, Dropkick Murphys and Knocked Loose. Armed with a new EP and a raucous live show to boot, the band are charging into new territory - louder, sharper, and more sure of themselves than ever.

TRACK LISTING:
01. Good Faith
02. Repeat Offender
03. Action
04. Can You See?
05. Through The Night
06. Everywhere Now

Massa Nera "The Emptiness of All Things"

LP - $17.25
STREET DATE: 10/31/25
CAT#: VIS028
LABEL: Persistent Vision

Our present moment sees us grappling with the rise of end-times fascism, the annihilation of collective, shared meaning, and the looming threat of climate catastrophe. It is within this landscape that Massa Nera release their urgent, genre-defying 3rd LP, "The Emptiness of All Things."

Having been given a commission by the Gabriela Lena Frank Creative Academy of Music to create a work that addresses the climate crisis, Massa Nera embraced experimentation, confrontation, and musical malfeasance in an attempt to capture the hellish inanity that defines our reality. Where once their songs bounced, they now alternately lumber and convulse. Their former impulse towards dance has mutated into a desire for destruction.

Lyrically, Massa Nera has shunned autobiography in favor of something more character-driven, more literary, more speculative. They offer a snapshot of capitalistic delusion and existential paralysis, rooted in the anxieties and fractured psychologies of the here and now. In short, "The Emptiness of All Things" is a lyrical call to arms, delivered not as a rallying cry but as an obituary. It is a mirror held up to the abyss, reflected back at the listener without pity or mawkish sentiment.

Despite this, the band has not abandoned melody. The predominant mood of ugliness is counterbalanced by passages of beauty, longing, and even undisguised gentleness. This gentleness, however, is not in service of an unearned, misplaced optimism. It is offered in the spirit of reflection, allowing listener and band alike to take a breath as they stare into the void.

"The Emptiness of All Things" was recorded and mixed by Matt Michael (No Man, Majority Rule) and mastered by James Plotkin (Khanate). The LP comes packaged in a gatefold jacket with newsprint poster insert and limited colored vinyl.

TRACK LISTING:
01. A Body
02. Pelerin
03. Avalon Cove
04. The Best is Over
05. Mechanical Sunrise
06. City of Mines
07. Lavender
08. Death Shall Flee From Them
09. The Emptiness of All Things
10. New Animism

MARKETING POINTS:

• New genre bending album from New Jersey experimental screamo / post-hardcore collective, MASSA NERA.
• Past releases include their split 12" with Quiet Fear, the Secret Voice compilation "Balladeers Redefined", and 2022 album "Derramar | Querer | Borrar".

Deaf Club "Contemporary Sickness (2025 Reissue)"

7" EP - $8.75
STREET DATE: 10/31/25
CAT#: 31G107
LABEL: Three One G

Deaf Club is a savage sound bath dripping with sardonicism: a blastbeat-centric hardcore punk assault channeling crust, thrash, and grind (un)sensibilities. Succinct pauses, surreal frequencies and effects, breakneck pace and sharply hurled vocals characterize the band’s aesthetic, which seems as though it is rooted in a sort of nasty-sound-meets-highbrow-message ethos. Fueled by the onslaught of society’s insanity and driven mad by tinnitus, Justin Pearson (The Locust, Dead Cross, Planet B), Brian Amalfitano (ACxDC), Scott Osment (Weak Flesh), and Jason Klein (Run With The Hunted) approach music as an opportunity to confront our collective sicknesses. We’ve got to try to listen, lest we all frolic headfirst towards the bright side of death, dragging this pillaged planet down with us. So whether you think the music is a radical disruption to the airwaves or just headache-inducing noise, you can feel free to tell them the brutal truth-- they can't hear you anyway.

01. Boyfriends of Christ

Spiritiste "Excommunication Hymns"

LP - $15.95
STREET DATE: 10/31/25
CAT#: PRO-106
LABEL: Protagonist Music

From Louisiana’s capital city of Baton Rouge come Spiritiste, an occult-influenced emotional hardcore band. Spiritiste's politically charged debut album, Excommunication Hymns, is a rage-filled effort that rallies against religious and political oppression, and reflects on the emotional trauma of trying to survive in the current fetid political climate/environment. Still, across these ten very expressive, cathartic tracks, the band does ultimately retain hope for a better world.

Sonically, Spiritiste have crafted a fresh, but identifiable, sound with dynamics that shift between steady and composed to chaotic sonic bedlam. Spiritiste draw upon core influences that include '90s hardcore bands like Shotmaker and Portraits of Past, but also salute noise rock mainstays Jesus Lizard and Chat Pile, and contemporary screamo acts like State Faults, Habak, and Frail Body.

Recorded and produced by Matt Bear, and mastered by Alan Douches, Excommunication Hymns presents a fully realized vision out-of-the-gate and establishes a musical call-to-arms for those marginalized and traumatized by a deeply rooted authoritarian culture.

TRACK LISTING:
01. Tumor
02. Sympathetic Resonance
03. Now I Am Become...
04. The Dead Travel Fast
05. Children of Kali
06. Transagion Prayer

Believe in Nothing "Rot"

LP - $20.65 / CD - $12.00
STREET DATE: 10/31/25
CAT#: CRR254
LABEL: Church Road

Due for release on 31st October 2025 via Church Road Records, Rot is Believe In Nothing’s full-length debut and the culmination of their bleak creative vision. It chisels into granite their counter-intuitive approach to heaviness: equal parts chaos and control, volume and restraint, with layered textures collapsing under their own weight. Where earlier singles hinted at suffocating tension, Rot dives headlong into the abyss, using pressure, space, and psychological decay to conjure a world that feels like it’s been burning for years. The title track, “Rot”, already a staple in their live set, appears at the end of shows for a reason: a final, devastating statement that refuses to comfort. A cracked mirror held up to the slow, grinding death of the familiar which leaves no closure, only aftermath.

TRACK LISTING:
01. Complete Desolation
02. What Would You Do?

Leaving Time "Loop / Live Beneath"

STREET DATE: 01/16/26
CAT#: SDR-154
LABEL: Sunday Drive

Just a year after their debut LP, “Angel in the Sand”, Leaving Time returns with a new two-song release, “Loop / Live Beneath”. Recorded earlier this fall at Matt Talbott’s (Hum) Earth Analog Studios with Zac Montez (Whirr, Cloakroom, Turnover), the band expands their sound with their longest tracks to date, and both surpassing five minutes.

Despite their length, ‘Loop’ and ‘Live Beneath’ feel significant and melodic with Leaving Time writing their most expansive songs in their discography. Rather than leaning on a slow build, the band creates a dynamic in each that makes the songs slide away, with a strong foundation of melody that linger after they end.

TRACK LISTING:
01. Loop
02. Live Beneath

Raein "Forme Sommerse"

LP - $17.50
STREET DATE: 10/24/25
CAT#: VIS027
LABEL: Persistent Vision

Following a triumphant return to live performances and several vinyl reissues last year, Italy’s RAEIN presents a brand new album, "Forme Sommerse" (Submerged Forms). Their first new music in ten years, "Forme Sommerse" consists of two seamless side-length songs across nearly thirty minutes - an emotionally complex, dynamic and graceful hardcore record from start to finish.

“It’s been ten years since our last recording. Ten years of change. It wasn’t a given we’d manage it again; clearly, what once was has cut deep—and stayed. We moved instinctively, as we always have, condensing these ten years of shifts and distances into half an hour of music. When we reflect on reality, it’s its submerged forms that move us; this record, true to tradition, is a tribute to what can’t be seen and to what compels us.”

Founded in 2002 in Italy, the band released a dizzying amount of music, across multiple splits, EPs and albums, while extensively touring the world during their original run. Reformed in 2023, Raein is considered to be one of the leaders in emotional post-hardcore, carrying a similar spirit and sound as bands like Orchid, Saetia, Pg.99, and others. Melding melody and discordance into something truly beautiful to experience.

"Forme Sommerse" comes packaged in a matte, full color gatefold jacket with printed inner sleeve and limited colored vinyl.

TRACK LISTING:
01. Primo Movimento
02. Secondo Movimento

MARKETING POINTS:

• The first new music from Italy's RAEIN in ten years
• Follows popular reissues of "Il N'y A Pas De Orchestre" LP and Collection LP in 2024 on Persistent Vision
• European tour and festival dates to be announced for October/November 2025

Mastiff "For All the Dead Dreams"

LP - $20.65 / CD - $12.00
STREET DATE: 10/24/25
CAT#: CRR255
LABEL: Church Road

Whether spreading plagues, turning the Earth to ash or teetering on the precipice of depression, you can always count on Kingston Upon Hull’s premier misery merchants Mastiff to ruin your day. Now well over a decade into their parade of embittered misanthropy, the East Yorkshire quintet have definitively burned their mark into the UK’s extreme music scene with a fistful of mangled hardcore and sludge riffs and an endless well of spite.

Mastiff’s reputation as a ferocious live entity only continues to grow, as they have spent the last few years racking up appearances at prestigious heavy music festivals like Bloodstock, Damnation, Incineration and DesertFest to name but a few, as well as sharing stages and touring with the likes of Avatar, Palm Reader, Conan, Black Tongue, Cult Leader, Calligram, Iron Monkey, Raging Speedhorn and many, many more.

As for recorded output, following two critically acclaimed albums on MNRK Heavy (High On Fire, The Callous Daoboys, Underoath, Darkest Hour etc), as well as their track ‘Acid Breather’ appearing in the multi-million-selling video game Cyberpunk 2077 and its Netflix anime spin-off Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Mastiff have finally and proudly joined the hallowed roster of Church Road Records for the release of ‘For All The Dead Dreams’, a blistering five-song assault of pummelling and aggravated hardcore.

Once again recorded and mixed by the incredible Joe Clayton at Nø Studio and mastered by the legendary Brad Boatright at Audiosiege, ‘…Dead Dreams’ sees Mastiff at their most brutish, sounding like Nails, Harms Way and Gatecreeper thrown into a cement mixer and poured straight into your ears. If the band’s previous album ‘Deprecipice’ felt as blunt and ignorant as heavy music gets, revel in horror as Mastiff collectively grunt ‘Hold my beer’ and dish up 15 minutes of unrelenting and unforgiving punishment.

The final two Unbroken EPs “Fall On Proverb” and “Absentee Debate” are now collected together on one 12” ep release entitled “fin.”

These records marked the band’s closing statements, capturing both the raw intensity and the emotional weight that defined Unbroken’s sound. At the time, they stood apart in hardcore for their dark, and more punk approach, shaping a wave of bands that followed. Decades later, their influence is still felt, not just in the music, but in the way they showed hardcore could be both brutal and vulnerable, yet deeply human.

LP - $19.40
LP UPC: 725305742041
STREET DATE: 10/03/25
CAT#: IOD-X07
LABEL: Iodine Recordings

MILTOWN's debut full-length, TALES OF NEVER LETTING GO, has finally been released. Limited edition "Pitch Black" (513) and "Glacier Blue" (297) vinyl are available now.

Featuring JONAH JENKINS (Only Living Witness), BRIAN McTERNAN (Be Well, Battery, Ashes), MATT SQUIRE (Ashes), JAY CANNAVA, and ROB DULANEY, these sessions were recorded at the legendary Long View Farm Studios (Bad Brains, Quicksand, Killswitch Engage) in December ’97 and January ’98.

The band broke up before the songs were mixed and the master tapes have sat in Southern California warehouses ever since. In 2024, Man Alive Records achieved an exclusive license to release the recordings after almost 30 years. The sessions were then mixed by guitarist BRIAN McTERNAN (Turnstile, Thrice, Angel Du$t) at Salad Days Studio and its packaging designed by TOM BEJGROWICZ (Beastie Boys, Johnny Cash, Snapcase). The album was mastered and cut to lacquers by NICK TOWNSEND (The Hold Steady, Nails, Dr. Dre) and features 13 songs, 10 of which debut here and three re-recordings of songs that appeared on the band's debut EP for Hydra Head Records in 1997.

TALES OF NEVER LETTING GO's packaging includes a full-color jacket, an innersleeve featuring complete lyrics and credits, an insert with the band's photos, ephemera, and master tape imagery from the time of recording the album—all of which have a matte coating to help protect against finger prints.

CAT#: QP020
LABEL: Quiet Panic

Chicago’s Sleepwalk has cemented themselves in the nugaze scene, combining the intensity of post-hardcore with the lush fuzziness and gentle vocal stylings of shoegaze. Of course, their sound also includes some hometown flavor, with noticeable influence from bands such as The Smashing Pumpkins and HUM. Providing a crossover sound that can attract multiple types of audiences, they have shared the stage with acts such as Glassjaw, Thursday, and Hotline TNT.

In anticipation of their upcoming tour with The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die and ASkySoBlack, their album “Splatter” is available on vinyl for the first time ever. With songs such as Flesh and Craving showing their punk influence, contrasted by the tracks Bumblebee and Crumble, which provide a shoegaze - and at times emo - palette cleansing, “Splatter” is a perfect showcase of Sleepwalk’s maxim: “Heavy music for the light hearted.”

Spite House "Desertion"

LP - $18.15
STREET DATE: 09/12/25
CAT#: PNE447
LABEL: Pure Noise Records

This record is the band’s second full-length, following up their self-titled released by New Morality Zine in 2022. This album continues to face head-on the topics of loss, grief, and vulnerability but from a different angle—one where past experiences are not just viewed as instances that shape identity but as situations that are a part of identity and allow life lessons to be learned. Desertion is post-hardcore at its most visceral and moving, a concept album that explores these themes so vulnerably and unsparingly that it’s sure to inspire catharsis and connection.

TRACK LISTING:
01. Ashen Grey
02. Deafening Calls
03. Desert
04. Tied To The Flow
05. 10 Days
06. Down The Drain
07. Please Know
08. Stale Change
09. Midway
10. Coma Dream
11. Safe Haven

• Currently on Summer European Tour
