DEICIDE- WHY NO WEB SITE?

Question: WHat\'s going on with Deicide\'s website? It hasn\'t been up for about a year now. I know you guys don\'t deal with that, I was just wondering if u knew what was going on with it. Thanks...


thanks alex,

check out Deicide on Myspace its the bands official myspace page. Deicide have had major bad luck at maintaining their presence on the web. Their original site Deicide.tv was maintained by Eric Hoffman himself but he lost his computer and has since left the band. The site Deicide.com was maintained by Earache for the band for a few months but Glen wished to update it himself, so it currently displays a holding page waiting for his updates.Earache's own site of course carries news of Deicide's activities aswell.

EARACHE= SHIT

Question: Why does Earache SUCK NOW! all the good bands are gone or left.Why all the pussy ass shit now?no grind or brootal shit on Earache anymore?

Thanks for your question Sandman, it's one we get asked a lot.
Yes it's true most of our well known legendary bands are no longer on the label, Napalm Death, Morbid Angel etc were all let go after numerous albums recorded for Earache during the era spanning 1980's- late 90's, and we wish them well..but, we have decided to invest the labels efforts in newer blood instead now. As for no grind-are you kidding??We have a catalog of legendary titles which created the genre, including Terrorizer and Brutal Truth's debuts as well as AC, Sore Throat, The Berzerker even. Just this past 12 months Earache has released some of its harshest music ever- Insision, Watchmaker, Citizen- and next week Severe Torture hits the shelves.True we also released Adema this year which became a flagship band, but if you care to dig deeper into the catalog you can still find the most extreme music, which Earache pioneered infact.

keepin' it brutal since 1986

DEADSY on EARACHE??

Question: Hey I was just wondering if \"Deadsy\" have been signed to your label? and if so.. is there any album/release information?? Thanks.


We don't usually disclose which bands we are talking to for possible signing to Earache or our sublabels, we usually are talking seriously to 5-10 bands at any one time, sometimes only one (or none) of which ends up actually signed for various reasons.But for the record, DEADSY are not signed.Earache founder Digby tried to sign them in 2000 and he and US label manager Al Dawson do love what DEADSY is all about, and its possible we may get involved in the future. check deadsy.com for their info about new album.

cheers

Hey Jt- it can be as high as £8.49 for full price cds in the uk, thats what the big distros like Vital or Pinnacle charge the shops. some Earache titles are around £6.00 tho..aiming to be instores and available to fans at £9.99 or so.
Labels cant dictate what the major chains sell the cds at tho..in some cases our Cds are £16.99 in Virgin or HMV.
£4 would be low or for deep back catalog.

cheers
