The joyously unrestrained, genre-defining debut album by Bloomington's much-loved Defiance, OHIO—back in print for the first time in fourteen years. Remastered, re-cut, and reissued in an aesthetically-pleasing chipboard LP jacket with kraft paper inner sleeves and insert poster. Edition of 300 copies on 150-gram vinyl.

Following a steady stream of ultra-limited 7" singles, that were collated together in 2019 for the 'Pre/Post: A Collection 2016-2018' on Louder Than War, the bands highly-anticipated debut album, by those that know, arrives. Since forming in late 2016, Girls In Synthesis have quickly forged a fearsome reputation as one of the most exciting and volatile live acts in London. In equal parts frantic, considered, ear-splitting and melodic, the group take their cues from the early DIY punk and post-punk pioneers to keep everything in-house; artwork, videos, performances and recordings are created entirely by the group and their handful of trusted collaborators, under a bedrock of heavy, bludgeoning, dark, post-punk. 'Now Here's An Echo From Your Future' is their first release for fabled experimental punk label Harbinger Sound and finds the band advancing their sound, making subtle but experimental shifts in texture and tone, helping to break free from the shackled straight-jacket of punk rock that, to be fair, never really held them down in the first place.

The contrast between the slow, mesmerising look into aging and dying in 'Human Frailty' ('The realisation that you cannot halt their impending death'), to the aggressive attack on the rise of the right-wing in 'They're Not Listening' ('The time-old tradition of the right wing accosting desperate working class people has returned') shows a wide range of subjects and reactions aggressively tackled. Mental health in a fast-moving, unforgiving world, media control, the divide widening between the have and the have nots, the class divide, the blaming of the poor, Nhaefyf bristles with an unforgiving frustration and temper. The recording of Nhaefyf started at Rockit Studio, Hull in April 2019 during days off on the UK tour to promote the '...

The fourth record from each of these bands, so make it a split one. Floridian hardcore in the vein of angry and aggressive.

The legendary, influential, celebrated, and inarguably debut release by I Hate Myself back in print after a twenty-year hiatus. Remastered, re-cut, and reissued in an aesthetically-pleasing chipboard LP jacket with kraft paper inner sleeves. Edition of 666 copies pressed on 150-gram vinyl.
