 | Battle Royale - s/t 7" EP Germany's Battle Royale is many things, foremost among those being HEAVY. This one little 7" is heavier than a lot of full lengths I've heard.

Label: Valiant Death Records. | $5/$6 |
 | Eleventh Symphony - A Uniform Infinity of Homogenous Matter at a Low Temperature CD Whether you want to call this emo-core or screamo or whatever, it's all the same to me. And this CD has it: jangly guitar parts, screamy vocals, and comparisons to Pg. 99, Seven Days of Samsara, and the like. 6 songs in about 60 minutes. Note: this CD has several different covers, so yours might not look like the picture. Label: Cobalt Room Records. | $6/$8 |

 | Good Morning/Straight to Your Brain - Together at Last 7" EP Good Morning is back with another dose of angry and frustrated punk rock, with some crusty and thrashy elements. Straight to Your Brain comes from similar territory, with the occassional ska riff, like Falling Sickness. Label: Dilapidated Records. | $3/$4 |
 | Groinchurn - Already Dead 3" MCD I dig these cute little 3" CDs. Of course, the size is the only thing cute about this CD...compiling tracks from EPs, including covers of Brutal Truth and Bad Brains, Groinchurn's "grinding South Africore" more than makes up for the meek size of this release. Label: C.A.H. Records. | $5/$6 |
