MONOMANIAC compilation EP series
What.
A series of 7″EP’s brought to you by Blastbeat Mailmurder, each bundled with a fine selection of international extreme artists, gloriously packaged by visionaries Viral Graphics. Each band contributes with ~1 minute of music!
Vol.2/3
Monomaniac vol.2/3 is currently under the final phase of preparation. As we speak, mastering is being done by C.Sinclair of Diocletian/Witchrist fame, and Viral Graphics is designing the artwork and layout.
Brace yourselves by streaming right now the opening track, “Transmuting Rituals Of The Absolute” by WITCHRIST, introducing the band’s new vocalist!!!
There’s also been a change of plans concerning the format of the series. Still sticking to the original ~1 minute of music per band concept which is what the Monomaniac series are all about, we felt limited by seveninchers this time, and have therefore decided to opt for the appropriate format according to the needs and shape of each volume. So, instead of a double gatefold 7″, vol.2/3 will be a 12″EP spinning at 45 RPM.
Please find below the full line-up:
- Witchrist (New Zealand),
- Weregoat (US),
- Mutant Supremacy (USA),
- Dephosphorus (Greece),
- Gods Of Chaos (Croatia),
- End (Greece),
- Burial Hordes (Greece),
- Ravencult (Greece),
