Witch Cult are dead.

We are playing our last show in July with Despise You, Gets Worse, Human Cull and more (facebook event). We will not be playing any shows before then.

Since we have already recorded songs for a split 5″ with Water Torture, we are going to try and get this released, hopefully around May or June.

Dom is playing Bass in Workin’ Man Noise Unit, Ghost Forge (featuring Dean) and hopefully a doom band with Alastair and Tim of Witch Cult.

Dean is doing solo noise under the name Knifedoutofexistence and is looking to tour the UK in March with dead wood and Svartvit. If anyone can help out with booking shows please get in touch with Dean at deanxvx@gmail.com. He is also doing shows, putting out records and working on a zine for Outsider Art.

Lizzy is currently in the final stages of finishing the 3rd issue of her zine Ghost Fuck. She is also putting on a screening for “Back of The Room” which will also be the launch for issue #3 of Ghost Fuck and issue #1 of Outsider Art zines. (facebook event)

Alastair is still playing drums for Pariso

Alastair and Nick have started a 2-piece band called PISSED OFF.

Thanks.

Tapes, Shirts, Sweaters and Zines Now On Sale

You can now order our new shirts and sweaters, split tapes with drainland and Cheating Death Zine Issue III on our Big Cartel page.

Please note that all orders placed before 2013 will ship between the 25th December and 31st January.

That’s it, back to Winnipeg.

Unfortunately we’ve had to postpone our weekender with Shut In this weekend. Two out of the three shows we had planned have been cancelled and the third is too far out of our way to justify a one off trip.

The good news is that this gives us an opportunity to continue writing songs for our upcoming splits with Water Torture, Monolithian and more.

We’ll also have tapes, tees and sweaters on the Big Cartel soon and will post to let you know when this is.

Floppy Disc box sets added to bigcartel

Seeing as Amps Against Trend have now sold out of their copies, we have put our copies up for sale online.

Buy them here

Also, you can download everything we’ve put out so far entirely free from our bandcamp page. A few people have donated money when downloading, as much as we are thankful for your generosity, we are unable to access the money that is sent to us as it requires a paypal business account which we do not have or want, so again, thank you to those who have paid but please just enjoy it for free!

Tape for Manchester and Brighton shows.

We recently found some bass and drum only demos for 3 of the the tracks off of the Drainland split. We added some vocals and noise to them. Pure Skull worship.

Purple spray-painted tapes, photocopied covers.

They will be available at the next two shows in Manchester and Brighton:
