*Update* Isis has unfortunately passed away on Monday, but we are still holding this fundraiser to ease this financial burden. Thank you all so much for supporting us through this emotionally shocking time.

Hello all,

We are doing a raffle/fundraiser for our sweet cat, Isis. The grand prize will include master tapes of all current Unchained Releases.

Last night we had a trip to the ER for our beloved cat Isis. We came home to her severely lethargic and refusing food yesterday, seriously ill. We thought maybe she'd gotten into something with how sudden this was. She stayed overnight in the ER and so far extensive diagnostics are pointing further and further to cancer (we've ruled out toxins, obstruction, infections etc).

Anyone who knows us personally or has met her can say that she means quite literally everything to us. She's such a loving sweetheart. She has a depth, intelligence, and understanding to her that you don't often come across. The bond we share is one that you only get with maybe one or two pets in a lifetime. She's our little buddy always at our sides.

Obviously, vet bills are astronomical, and is something we cannot simply afford, nor can we afford losing her.

⛓MITTERNACHT⛓

Excited to announce we will be releasing another black metal E.P this winter, this time from primitive blackened death act, Mitternacht !

Mitternacht draws influence from raw and aggressive classics like Bathory and Dissection, bringing you a primal aggression likened to the years of the 1st wave of black metal. Loud and blasphemous, this demo is made to be cranked to 11!

Demo tapes will be available from the band later this winter, pending release set for late February.

⛓️NEPA THRASH⛓️

Excited to announce we will release the new E.P, "Man Made" on January 7th, 2022! This E.P will feature 5 crushing tracks of Pennsylvanian thrash metal, set to detonate a bomb on all of you thrashers' ears!

We are grateful to be given the opportunity to work with this excellent band once again, considering their compilation of their first two E.Ps, "Manhattan Mischief" and "Trinity Terror" was our first ever release! This label was basically kickstarted thanks to the success of the compilation release, and it feels good to come full circle!

Pre-orders will open soon on the band's Bandcamp page, do give them a follow!
