Sixes
Submissions
Jyrk
3
£5.99
Live set of slowly accruing sick avalanche tone from this west coast haunted noise unit. Edition of 200 on the Yellow Swans' Jyrk imprint. "Man... one of the first times we rolled down to Oakland, we met up with this dude and his intensely dark steez.. Dude reminded me of my buddies up in Portland who had first told me about 'The Temple,' which Mr. Sixes calls home... My friends told me that their show at "The Temple" was one of the most chaotic evenings of their band's career... tons of smashed glass, fights.... debauch... A fierce mess.. When we finally got to SEE Sixes... or more importantly, when we moved to the bay and got to SEE Sixes a LOT, Dude was REPEATEDLY crushing... on par with other western freaks like Wiese and Gerritt... totally gross intensity.. So.. we bug him to do a release... and he takes his time.. but... now we're finally holding onto this SICK live recording of a set in Seattle from 2005.. It's perfect for JYRK too..." - Pete Swanson.

Sixes
Cursed Beast
Troniks TRO-248
CD
£5.99
"The CD re-issue of the Highly-Acclaimed Sixes LP we released a few months back that sold out super-quickly. This is by far the baddest-ass of all Sixes material yet - yeah yeah yeah, every label thinks their Sixes release is the best, but here we're not lying: Originally to be called "The Beast", 2 years in the making, an 8-track reel-to-reel and a computer ruined twice, two teeth pulled and a resulting throat abscess requiring hospitalization in the interim. The frustrations and anger, the pain and set-backs all became hate:fuel for what was to become the "The Cursed Beast". Heavy rhythms, harsh swirling sounds, buried vocals seething in ugly, ruined and destroyed guitar wreckage and synth gnarl, structured and formed into arguably one of the best releases of 2006. Ever wonder what would've happened if Crash Worship ADRV had been influenced solely by Chrome, look no further. When we first received the material, intended for a cassette release, we knew it had to be to on vinyl. After releasing the vinyl we realized that this material was just too good to be limited to a mere 200x copies, Troniks was down for co-releasing it to CD and here we are. Packaged as a miniature version of the LP, ever so beautifully by the kind folks of Thingmakers: 3 color cover (black on gun-metal silver on gold on black) with mini-insert, each cover is slightly different in alignment (mimicking the screen-printed original). Edition of 1000 copies." - Enterruption.
