Agipunk announces the release of Astio's Bocche Stanche. Astio come from Trento (northern Italy) and have members who have played with bands like Left In Ruins, Impulso, and Tuono. This new combo delivers something really far from their typical fast/crusty/old schoolish noise; indeed this is catchy peace/post-punk sung in Italian with hints of saxophone here and there. Imagine Wipers playing Gang Of Four (or vice versa) after having listened all day to Chain Cult.

For those who are not familiar with Misery, they are a band from Minneapolis that started playing at the end of the '80s and released many records during all these years without changing their style for the trendier shit or losing their incredible dose of rotting and angry power. This record compiles their very first releases (except for the Your Leaders Were Lying! EP, because the band doesn't like the sound of it), so you'll find: Born Fed Slaughtered EP, Blindead EP, Children Of War EP, and the two Split EPs with Assrash and Hellspawn. A total amount of 13 tracks for nearly 40 minutes of dirty, pissed and stinky crust punk! Comes with a four-page booklet with all the images taken from their original records, lyrics and info.

Canadian powerhouse Warkrusher are back after their self-titled demo tape, Pils Sessions #11 Tape and the Epitaph 7". Now, a few words about the music: the perfect combination between old school stench core a la Axegrinder, Deviated Instinct, early Hellshock, and early '90s Bolt Thrower. Not to talk about the artwork: simply insane with all those little details and stuff.

22 years, several EPs and splits, three full-lengths and countless tours around the globe, Hellshock are still standing relevant and still playing some of the heaviest riffs in the worldwide punk scene. Where most bands of the crust genre seem to lose the fire and filth or simply break up before their prime, this band seems to get more powerful with each release and this long-awaited LP is no exception. This recording features the addition of Robbie Chronic from Ripper on guitar who adds some real sick fucking solos on top of the established rolling crust riffage that the original core group had perfected years ago. Neck-aching tempos, sheer brutality, growled anguished vocals, and epic song writing without straying from pure unadulterated crust. For the seasoned Hellshock fan, you know you will already love this album and it will only exceed expectations. For the newcomer, if they were to ask "what is this crust/stenchcore thing about?", you could point them to Amebix, Deviated Instinct, Axegrinder, and Hellshock. The name deserves to be right beside the creators and masters. In another 20+ years this record will be regarded as one of the best crust records of the 2020s, just as Only the Dead Know the End Of War as a defining record of the early 2000s. Gatefold vinyl.

Swedish raw punk legends Anti Cimex have finally reached the joyful lands of Agipunk. On this record the label collectd in chronological order all the demos and the studio recording sessions that haven't been released on any official release so far. A total of 29 tracks that originally appeared on K.A.A.S January 1982, K.A.A.S April 1982, En Produkt Av Dagens Skitsamhälle tapes plus the studio session right before the Raped Ass 7" EP and the discarded recordings for the full length that never saw the light and eventually became the Victims Of A Bomb Raid 7" EP. All you Cimex maniacs out there probably already know most of the songs, but you'll definitely find a bunch of extremely obscure tracks which I bet you've never heard before. All the tracks come from the original tapes and the sound has been restored and remastered by Lasse at Ballade Studio in Copenhagen.
