Hey Everyone! Sat quiet for the winter months putting together a busy spring release schedule. The first arrival is here-

physical copy is a 3xC30 with each cassette in a cardstock O-Card, collected in a silkscreened cardboard box with insert.

While the Staring Problem, Violetiger and Peppy Pep Pepper releases are being spotted all over various year end lists ranging from record stores, social media posts and online publications to KEXP.org (thanks everyone, especially DJ Sharlese!) A review rolled in today of one of the more dreary releases from back in august, the debut from Closing.

Another kind review of one of this summer's sneakier MT releases from 1208 w. fuller ave. The debut of closing. deep dissonant drones and filtered field recordings. According to sources, closing. II is under construction at the moment.

some kind words over at 1208 North Fuller Ave about the Human Aspic debut from a few months back. There are copies at Deadgods in brooklyn and Skeleton Dust on discogs. When noise shows start happening again and Human Aspic makes its live debut there will be a couple copies then as well.

mt040- Staring Problem 'Eclipse' LP
here's a photo of the record, cover and insert. I'll reiterate, best release with guitars on it in the whole MT catalog. This one is a smoker. great, gritty post punk with a sincere, forlorn quality making it stand out from other contemporary artists who appear content to just regurgitate tropes. Copies are enroute to Kernkrach in germany as well as Skeleton Dust and Sorry State in the US. Don't sleep on it.
