#BAZUndergroundUpdates CXXXV

Looks like we got through the first week of November somewhat safely! Our writers Julia Katrin and Tom Osman at least are still alive and back at it once again with another instalment of The Underground Updates!

So, let’s see what’s out there…

BENEATH MY FEET Having been interviewed by Let’s Talk Music recently the group talked about their upcoming album In Parts, Together. Right now the track Dig My Grave is available over here where you can also place your album order, and to watch the in depth interview right over here!

METALHIT For a limited amount of time Metalhit is offering 50% off their Bandcamp store with the discount code 50percentoff. Head over here to place your order now!

DUNKELHEIT PRODUKTIONEN Available now for only 7:90 EUR or lower are many of Dunkelheit Produktionen´s CD stock and the offer is valid for as long as they have the stock! Head over here to take your chance and enjoy!

VACUOUS DEPTHS Mmmm it’s time for some grisly, pulverising death metal — courtesy of Blood Harvest Records, Goat Throne Records and Chaos Records — in the form of Corporal Humiliation, the debut album by Florida’s Vacuous Depths. You can listen to the album in all its sinister, bludgeoning glory here with info and links to pick up a copy in various formats.

ANTIMONUMENT Any time a release comes around from Sentient Ruin Laboratories you can generally rely on it being a unique combination of crushing heaviness and a certain malevolent evilness. So it is with Concealment the forthcoming album by Brazilian experimental death metal group Antimonument. The album will be released on the 2nd of December. Meanwhile you can listen to the whole thing here where you can also pre-order on a range of formats.

BLACK LION RECORDS have teamed up with Season of Mist to offer print on demand merch. You can check out what clothing designs are available here. Currently there’s a range of Kvaen designs. Stay tuned as the label plans to add more designs to the store.

Having to pay gigantic sums for international postage is a real gear grinder.

While it’s our default setting to link Bandcamp pages in the case of new and pre-releases, we thought it would be helpful to add some online stores that might provide a useful alternative.

So if you see a release you fancy, but it’s being sold in a far off land and you don’t want to fork out on exorbitant shipping, see if any of the links below can remedy the situation.

By now chances are one and one house might have started putting up their Christmas decorations already, but even if it might be too early for that it is never too early to start shopping for presents and keep occupied by activities! Make sure you take advantage this week and enjoy!
