Things have finally calmed down here at Robo HQ after the insane activity from several ISIS vinyl reissues. Happy to haveOceanic, Panopticon and In The Absence Of Truth out there and reasonably widespread again, we're now ready to introduce you to two new bands joining the Robo roster by launching two new preorders!
TERMINAL FUZZ TERROR are a Seattle-based band consisting of D. Rodriguez (guitar, vocals), D. Nelson (guitar, vocals), A. Crawshaw (drums) and J. Kleine (bass). Drummer Crawshaw also runs the Seattle based screen printing monolith Broken Press, who screened all printwork for TFT's hand assembled, limited release. Their vinyl debut, Vol 0: In The Shadow Of The Mountain, was recorded at Witch Ape Studio, engineered and mixed by Tad Doyle (of TAD) and mastered by James Plotkin.
TFT unleash a raw fury of rock n' roll drifted through the filters of punk, psychedelia and blues. Pummeling percussion and wailing riffs accompany a vocal delivery that channels an obliterated Jim Morrison at the height of religious revelry! The magnanimous 17-minute title track B-side closes out Vol 0: In The Shadow Of The Mountain with a long form, slow burning mind melter. You can sample for yourself by previewing "Megalodon" now via The Obelisk.
Housed in a silk screened jacket limited to 300 copies, this is a thing of beauty and includes a high-quality digital download, massive poster and insert. 50 special deluxe versions of the record include an embroidered 4" round patch and come packaged in a screen printed tote bag (a very limited amount are available for mailorder from us).
We've also got some badass t-shirts for TFT, printed on cozy ass Anvil Ringspun shirts - hit that up too for some new digs.
Available on March 3rd, Vol 0: In The Shadow Of The Mountain pre-orders are up now and expected to ship around Feb. 27th.

On the other side of the heavy spectrum, for the folks who've been wondering what the CAPSULE dudes have been up to, we're beyond stoked to introduce you to WRONG!
Comprised of Eric Hernandez on guitars / vocals, brother Brian Hernandez on drums, Andres Ascanio on the bass and Ryan Haft on guitars, Miami, Florida's WRONG debut with an absolutely pummeling four-track EP titled Stop Giving. With an emphasis on bludgeon and groove, it's hard not to compare their first recordings to heyday-era HELMET; but WRONG deliver their own dissonance, atmosphere and attitude in a massive combination of power and skill. An indication of things to come, Stop Giving preludes a full-length due on Robotic Empire later this year.
The Stop Giving EP vinyl plays at 45rpm, is limited to 300 copies, and comes in silk screened packaging with artwork by TORCHE's Rick Smith, printed at Seattle's Broken Press. Self-recorded and mixed in Summer 2014 at Pinecrust studios in Miami, FL by Ryan Haft, the EP was mastered by Nick Zampiello at New Alliance. Including a high quality digital download, you can listen to "Call It" now on our Bandcamp page.
Vinyl is being assembled now and is set to begin shipping around Feb. 27th !
