CxC - 006: World Map - Topography

World Map - Topography


Super excited to announce the debut release from Kalamazoo, Michigan's very own World Map! World Map plays a brand of instrumental metalcore that's technical with an ambient edge that's literally unmatched. Nobody can do it like they can! They've been destroying southwest Michigan for a few years, hypnotizing many with their incredible live shows, and now it's time for the world to finally hear World Map.

Tapes coming soon.

CxC - 003: Burst of Silence - Thicker Than Blood

Burst of Silence - Thicker Than Blood


 Recently I announced that I was releasing Burst of Silence's unreleased full length album, but there was a mix up with some DATs which turned out to be a pretty cool thing! Burst of Silence's Ep, Thicker Than Blood, has been remastered instead and I was given permission to do a short run tapes of it! I guess this will be a little pre-cursor to the BoS full length.

Thicker Than Blood was originally released in 1993 and contains 4 tracks of heavy and blistering hardcore that only Burst of Silence can deliver. Get stoked on this one my friends!

CxC-005: Burst of Silence - S/T

Burst of Silence - S/T


Stoked to announce this monster! Burst of Silence was a Canadian hardcore outfit that existed from the early to mid-90s. They took everyone by storm with their heavy and slow paced sound that pounded many faces in. This release is their full length 8 song album that never saw the light of day way back when. Now everyone will have the chance to hear it! Luckily, the DAT for album was recovered and the entire thing is being remastered. Strap yourselves in for this album my friends! We're going for a wild ride!

CxC-004: Eternal War - Passage Of The Fragile Mind

Eternal War - Passage Of The Fragile Mind


Eternal War hails from Glasgow, UK and they're laying down some of the heaviest hardcore from across the pond! Taking cues from one of the best decades in hardcore (the 90s...), Eternal War shines through with metallic riffs that will have you stomping and lyrics that will cripple your soul! Also, the recording creates an atmosphere that is completely unique to this cut. They plugged away and recorded this monster themselves, something that's rare in the world of over polished hardcore we regretfully live in today. Get stoked!

CxC-001: xERADICATEx - Vengeance Is Just

xERADICATEx - Vengeance Is Just


xERADICATEx - Vengeance Is Just contains 3 tracks of straight up pissed off, raw, and heavy hardcore. Influenced by some of the nastiest bands such as Chokehold and Left For Dead, this cassette refuses to let up and the message of "fuck you" really comes across clearly.
