| When The Columbines Bloom |
Mares Laig is the project of Jon Goldy. The lathe cut 7"s have already been approved and are to be released very soon. These records are cut on a hard, totally clear plastic that delivers a quality sound for Mares Laig's first SHH effort after two previous tapes, self released: Beneath Enormous Voice (2012) and Secret. Violent. (2012).
This newest release, which will be limited to 15 copies, is a special 7" that slowly feeds your ears a creeping dose of melancholy and disquiet. Certain techniques evoke an atmosphere of the contemplation of violence, or perhaps the uncertain calm after the act. Extremely pleasing stuff - - more information very soon.
And here are two recent releases which I don't consider official SHH releases, but are available as a distro item:

Thumbscrews is a one man hardcore/punk band from Providence, RI that has released two tapes in it's one year of existence: a demo tape in 2013 (hand stamped edition of 99 copies) and a follow-up e.p., Life Is Pure Joy (2014, edition of 50 copies). Thumbscrews delivers an unhinged and personal assault, characterized by nails-on-chalkboard guitars with a blown the fuck out production. Youth crew gone wrong, this solo project deals heavily with issues of the deaths of friends, addiction, alienation and sexual assault.
More updates soon--including info about Mares Laig When The Columbines Bloom 7" and more upcoming releases.
