New distro stuff, complete with uninspired descriptions:
B'Son / Crowskin - split LP (Vendetta)
Utterly destructive doom drone from these German bands!

Classic emo / screamo split with bands hailing from Norway and Italy!

Excellent instrumental rocking in a post vein from these ex-Quickspace dudes! Improv-y, jazzy, melodic, superb!
Graf Orlock - Destination Time Tomorrow 10" (Vendetta)
Blazing "cinema grind", a.k.a. melodic and fast tech-metal with tons of samples and ludicrous packaging!
Gruel - Demo CDR (n/a)
Leeds supergroup of nice doomy noise, like a trancy Hawkwind meets Swans!
