“We are currently finalizing two long overdue releases : the BLACKUP/Brat Farrar split 7″ and the Psycho Mutants 7”.

There will be GOLD!

Screenprinting job will be done with the help of Stephane from TROU NOIR

Two screenprinted postcard designed by Xavier Benoit will complete the bloody gold edition of the BLACKUP/Brat Farrar split. The cards are called “Satan et son fils” and “Montagne de bites” and I urge you to NOT google that last one.

We will also make a screenprinted cover for the milky gold version of the Psycho Mutants 7″.

Both these records should be officialy released by the label at the end of the month or early February. Stay in touch!” – https://www.facebook.com/sliceofwax/
