decadent & depraved

Ear Bleed has moved to Madison, Wisconsin. More releases and gigs soon once we’re settled…

Back in the shit.

Ear Bleed is back in town, lots of new and old stuff headed your way soon.

Here Comes Andy Crash

Here’s a couple out of print cd-rs from Andy Crash:

Fedral Reserve

easy street ep

Andy’s newest album “Waiting for Nothing” is still available from Ear Bleed for $5. Did we mention it’s amazing and contains a bunch of Hank Williams covers? And comes with an awesome color mini-poster drawn by Andy himself?

Kosmische Cryptids

New Cryptids CD-r out on Layaway Butch/Ear Bleed Records:

Cryptids- Kosmische Cryptids (Layaway Butch/Ear Bleed)
A collection of assorted Cryptids works from the vaults, 2007 to present. Shimmering drones, heavy tribal freakouts and a whole lot of blissed-out cosmic kraut music from the wrong place and time. Email earbleedrecords at gmail.com about how to get one of these. Only two copies of “Mabuse” left, so order these fast.

Some pictures from the Yellow Crystal Star/Child Bride/To-Night Golden Curls/Cryptids gig:

New Ear Gunk

Two new cassettes from Ear Bleed:

Cryptids- Mabuse (EBR18)

If the last couple Cryptids releases were a little too droney or mellow for you, don’t worry, this one’s about as mellow as an icepick to the earlobe. Mountains of misanthropic churning violin ultraviolence, drugged synths melting in the sun and tortured screams coming out of the air vents populate the landscape of this tape. “Der Spieler”/”1000 Eyes”.

Andy Crash- Waiting for Nothing

Andy Crash is one of NW Ohio’s most original and unique musicians, and we’re very happy to be able to put out a tape by him. Inspired by tales of the hobos, yeggs and drifters that used to ride the rails, Andy brings together originals, covers, and timeless folk & country songs together in his unique style. Somehow Andy links the songs of Hank Williams, Flatt & Scruggs, the Velvet Underground and Snoop Dogg into a unique vision of American loner folk music. Comes with an awesome color poster by Andy Crash himself. Probably the coolest thing we’ve put out.

Both of these are $5 each, if you buy both of them you’ll also get a ton of other Ear Bleed stuff. Better do it soon, though, because I will be going on permanent vacation in mid-May. Send paypal money or an email to earbleedrecords@gmail.com.

A few tapes left

Still have a few copies of the following:

Cryptids- Veil

Ripped Krampus II- Mothbleed: Death’s Gonna Die CD-r

Father Yodorowsky & the Spirit of 666- El Dopo

$5 each, send an email to earbleedrecords@gmail.com to snag one before they’re gone.

New tapes coming very soon.

New from Ear Bleed.

EBR 17: Father Yodorowsky & the Spirit of 666- EL DOPO C-30

Drug-addled super heavy bad acid psychedelic speed freaks blast off. Thick & heavy like a Mainliner milkshake with some totally ripped psych dudes huffing Jap-psych fumes in the basement. Side II was recorded live opening for La Otracina. Edition of 13. $5

EBR 16: Ripped Krampus II- Mothbleed: Death’s Gonna Die CD-r

A half hour of sonic pummeling from the deranged minds of Ripped Krampus II. Three guitars, bass and drums tearing through improvised psychedelic biker krautrock at the speed of sound. Risen from the ashes of Ripped Krampus and the old line-up of the Puffy Areolas, RKII is a whole new beast, spewing Les Rallizes Denudes covers at you at insane volumes. Limited to 20 copies. $5

To purchase these pieces of gunk, send some money via paypal to earbleedrecords@gmail.com or send an email and we’ll respond about how to send carefully concealed cash/checks/drugs. We’ll also throw in some various bits of EBR debris in your package just for fun.

Enter the Krampus

Here’s some links to our last.fm set-up, where there’s some RKII live recordings for download. Also check out the Mothbleed tapes to get a sneak peek of one of the next Ear Bleed releases.
