Post-Halloween Update

Clean is back from Not Dead Yet 2015. It was a great time, Thank You to all who came out to the weird-heavy gig at Coalition over any other of the crazy shows that night. 

In related news, SHH label has released a 2nd pressing of Clean "Hell So Strong". Same tunes on pro-dubbed C32 tapes, with sharp new packaging to compensate for the rushed appearance of the first edition, which was finished just barely in time for tour with The Body in May 2015. 

Clean has set up a webstore you can buy this new edition, as well as the VERY FEW remaining copies of the 555 split, right HERE

(if you are seeing a temporary picture of the first edition on the webstore, don't worry, you will receive the 2nd edition pictured below):


Hell So Strong - 2nd Edition of 100.
The new edition and 555 split tapes are still just $5. Fuck overpriced punk/metal trend forever.

Be aware you can listen to and download any SHH release free of charge at the Bandcamp page.

All for now.

Clean / 555 Split



SHH 006 - Clean/555 split C20
Edition of 50. 
SHH is proud to present CLEAN/555. Providence, RI is Home to the enigmatic 555, an artist whose  staggering body of work has only circulated between a small circle of tape traders and allies. "BK" is a 10 minute piece about the darkest of places, executed in one divided movement. An electro-acoustic cacophony of garbage electronics recorded under a fine layer of soil gives way to  singular, rumbling bass and the underworld grimace of the primeval ogre-- 555. 
"Manifest In The Calloused Light" is the latest crude marking by Clean. Emerging up out of excrement and mud to deliver a white-hot percussive volley of searing noise before sinking back into the primordial muck of their down-tempo damaged metal. 

Listen to it here:


Available locally at Armageddon Shop and at this upcoming gig

Stay tuned for more before the end of this year.

SHH-03 Anonymous - The Whisperer In Darkness 7"




SHH-03 Anonymous - The Whisperer In Darkness 7"

Submitted anonymously to the SHH offices, it is not quite a musical disc, but an art object that appears in the H.P.L. story by the same name. Edition of 10 lathe cut records on hard plastic. Sealed with beeswax. Listen to it HERE.
