2019 OCCD47 Striations – Vietnamization 2CD + Poster
PRE-ORDER! Upcoming in late April.

Press-release:
"Imagine obsession. Now imagine compacting years of that obsession into a well-crafted work of art. Striations has done just that with, what I would call his magnum opus, 'Vietnamization'. This is the sound of war. Not just on for the soldiers on the battlefield; but the nations that feel its impact as well. With a battalion of highly praised collaborators, Mike Finklea has collaged Power Electronics and Harsh Noise to a seamless point. PE and HN have always been not-so-strange bedfellows with masterpieces such as Deathpile's "G.R" or Taint's "Justmeat," but many, if not most, have a very stagnant backing accompanied with vocals. 'Vietnamization' manages to keep you interested with what sounds are coming next, a powerful vocal presentation and well-placed samples that are culled from various sources that are most certainly NOT Youtube. Originally released on cassette on the surging New Forces label, this expanded 2CD edition contains the original C60 as well as the companion CDr that was given to a select few close friends as well as additional art that was not included with the highly uniform NF cassette. The war has been over for nearly four and a half decades, but Striations has placed us right back in the jungle." Jim Haras. A 6-panel matte-laminated 2CD Digipak limited to 300. A special edition comes with an A3 poster limited to 50. Co-produced with Eibon Records.

Fantastic! The tape was top notch so this is certainly well deserved and most appreciated!

"As long as humans have hands to draw with, topics such as fucking, sucking, tits, ass, sodomy, pink cunts and big dicks along with death, murder, politics and power will always be on our cave walls." -Joe Roemer

Will there be U.S. distribution? Other than copies the artist receives. Not sure I've noticed it ever mentioned for O.C. releases...?

Malignant Records seems to get all Old Captain CD's in, so they are an obvious one to check out: www.malignantrecords.com
