Hedonist in conspiracy with Southern Lord launch their debut full length album “Scapulimancy”. Old school death metal on a timeless warpath strewn with familiar and unknown terrors beyond.

Southern Lord is beyond stoked to announce that we will be releasing the debut album from Victoria, BC. Old School Death Metal band: Hedonist.
Hedonist brings forth a ferocious exhibition of power amidst morbid undercurrents of disaster. Timelessly in the vein of Bolt Thrower, Nihilist, Entombed and Dismember where death takes bearing on the facade of life.

The Lord was completely blown away by their “Sepulchral Lacerations” demo (https://hedonistdeathmetal.bandcamp.com/album/sepulchral-lacerations-demo) and are really honored to be working with the band on their brutal debut album! The very first track we will be unleashing from the “Scapulimancy” album is called “Execution Wheel” and is streaming//available to purchase for download exclusively from bandcamp! Vinyl pre-order information will be made in the not so distant future.

April 1st 1998 was the official unleashing of the Southern Lord label. Initially created solely to release (2) monumental groups that both Stephen O’Malley and I were involved in:

–Thorr’s Hammer-Dommedagsnatt
&
–Burning Witch-Crippled Lucifer (Seven Psalms For Our Lord of Light)
(which was a compilation of two EPS: “Towers” & “Rift Canyon Dreams“)

Both albums were released on compact disc by Southern Lord in 1998.
This primordial singularity in itself birthed the massiveness that followed.
27 years later and there are no words, no language to express the immense
honor it has been to be able to work with so many incredible artists.
Nothing but gratitude for being allowed to be involved.

Eternal Thanks,
†Greg Anderson†
Southern Lord Recordings

p.s. The Thorrs Hammer and Burning Witch albums are available digitally for whatever you want to pay via bandcamp for a short period of time.

The second and most important album from Engine Kid : ”Angel Wings” turns 30 years old today!

(The Coltrane cover: “Ole” is vinyl only).

Deluxe 2xLp with Stoughton gatefold jacket available via the Kid Bandcamp or our store.
AND!!! ANGEL WINGS IS AVAILABLE TO DOWNLOAD FOR FREE FROM BANDCAMP, (for a limited time)

Here are some words from each of the Kids’:

Precise, exacting, relentless. Those days of preparation in advance of recording Angel Wings was a time for me where I felt like a complete musician. 6 days a week, 4 hours a day for 6 weeks: of sweat and passion. With all three of us on a collective mission to bring it home; and I still hear it in the work 30 years later. (With gratitude to John Goodmanson for his stewardship and production)

JD 🗡️

“30 years! It doesn’t sound a day older than 25. Actually, it sounds and feels just as it did when we recorded it. I cherish Angel Wings and the memories of those sessions and look forward to the 50th anniversary.”

A little cheesy, but that’s me.
Krafty

After amassing a very decent arsenal of new songs we headed into the studio to record our first full-length for Revelation. We chose to work with John Goodmanson again this time at Bad Animals studio in downtown Seattle. The diversity of our songwriting could almost be heard as sounding schizophrenic. At one moment we were bludgeoning a riff to a bloody pulp (Lies Like Knives) and the next evoking melancholic melodicism (Stitches). We would quickly turn angular yet disjointed cacophony into fist pumping hypnotic undulation. It was an elevation of the quiet/loud juxtaposition to new heights. We capped the whole thing off with a enthusiastic, heavy rendition of John Coltranes” OLE’ with close friends Bill Herzog-(Upright bass), Joel Phelps-Silkworm (Saxophone) and once again Tim Midgett (Trumpet). These recordings were released as the “Angel Wings” album on Revelation Records in 1995.
