Panic Records Giving Away Run With The Hunted’s LP As Free Download - European Tour Now Underway

A Message From Panic Records:

We’re trying something new here at Panic. We’ve gotten tons of feedback from all of you over the years about how you find out about and listen to our releases. The majority of people we’ve heard from prefer to download an album for free to check it out and if they like it, they’ll support the band on the road or eventually pick something up from us online. From a label standpoint, this has always put us in a difficult situation; we put a ton of time, effort and money into each release and free downloading takes away from our ability to break even and continue to put out new releases. At the same time, we want everyone to have access to our releases and hear the amazing bands we work with.

Hot summer night reviews MUNICIPAL WASTE, THE HAVERBROOK DISASTER vs DEMORALISER, ALEX SAUER

MUNICIPAL WASTE "The Fatal Feast" (CD)

Richmond, Virginia thrash mongers MUNICIPAL WASTE moved from a revivalist thrash party project to become the measure to which the new breed of modern crossover-tharshers must confront with.

Starting from the impressive cover artwork a la Ed Repka (by Justin Osbourn of Slasher Design) to the "Waste In Space" intro by Zombie's Steve Moore to the lyrics the guys this time around penned kinda outer-space theme that wraps the whole new offering.

Reviews...reviews...THE BURIAL, MXPX, RADIO HAVANNA

THE BURIAL "Light And Perfections" (CD)

Dissonant sounds creeping out of the outer space, a heavier than a mammoth rhythmic section and some cool crafted guitar lead lines. All this before all the band kicks in full blast with its bludgeoning metal assault. That's just a bit of things about the opening track of THE BURIAL new record entitled "LIGHTS AND PERFECTIONS".
