THE UNRULED Time Is Running Out Reissue EP w Bonus Track!

  • July 25, 2011 11:51 am

Schizophrenic Records is pleased to celebrate 30 years of the UNRULED by re-releasing the band’s debut 7′ from 1984. Time Is Running Out 7″ captures the band and their blend of Canadian and Bristish Punk sounds at their prime. Well before DIS became a prefix these Canadian punks were thrashing, bashing and fighting against the System. Includes Clear the Pigs out which was recorded during the same 7″ session and has been unreleased for 30 years. Catch the newly reformed UNRULED as they invade a town near you. Buy this 7″ and don’t give up the fight – the UNRULED haven’t!!

$7 in Canada and the US (in the respective funds) and $10 USD for international orders. Paypal orders please send $7.00 (US/Can) or $10.50 US (Overseas) to burningspirits@gmail.com.

Limited Edition mail order copies are on colour vinyl and include an additional sleeve silkscreened by Adam Invader. His decision to add a second colour was genius and as you can see these look fantastic.

GUNNAR HANSEN/U.T.I. Split LP

  • April 20, 2011 8:22 pm

Hamilton’s own GUNNAR HANSEN follow up their sold out debut 7″ with their passionate and sincere, guitar driven fast hardcore. A strong dual guitar attack built over driving bass lines pound at your ears while their negative lyrics peck at your eyes.

Following their scorching tracks on the Toronto’s Burning compilation, U.T.I. turns up the insanity! Frantic pounding, shredding, fist pumping hardcore with speed changes and possessed female vocals make for a unique thrash attack.

This rager is packaged in awesome cover art by Scott Bentz, coloured by Stef Bell, & jacket design by Darrin Cosgrove.

The limited/show release edition available at Hammer City Records and via mailorder is pressed out of 100 on white wax. This comes with two extra covers, a bloody silkscreened one from Adam Invader and the other with awesome b&w ink art from HAYMAKER’s Jeff Beckman.

Limited edition copies are $18 US/Canada and $25 by air overseas. The still ripping regular edition is $16 US/Canada and $23 US PPD by air overseas. For paypal please send $16.75 (US/Can) or $24 US (overseas) to burningspirits@gmail.com
