2018: record trafficking and updates
5/20/18
Financial Ruin is one person, Dan aka myself, and we are not always great at running a timely mail order. So, I negotiated a deal with my old friend Josh over at Dead Tank Records to handle all that from now on. Wholesale is available from either of us but probably faster if you hit up Josh.
Click Here for Financial Ruin mail order and check out the Dead Tank distro. Orders over $60 get free shipping. I'll keep handling Meatwound merch through the store link above, if you want some of that tropical nightmare scenario in your life.
Locals can get Financial Ruin releases at Microgroove or Steelworker records in Tampa.
We will also be getting some of the Financial Ruin back catalog up through another back room deal with another old friend in which bands will actually receive money from online stream. We're talking pennies per album here but like your piggy bank, it takes patience. Or popularity. Maybe even hard work.
Horsewhip LP is up next. Check out that press release below: Some elderly favorites being reanimated later this year if you guys buy enough Mob Terror and Horsewhip LPs. Trying to recoup 12% of label expenditures and maintain an 88% financial loss ratio. Like the USA government, we spend more than we take in but somehow stay in business.
Up Next:
Next up from Financial Ruin, home to various disappointed bands but several satisfied credit card companies, we have the Horsewhip 12”. EP or LP? Seven songs so let’s call it an EP. If you have 14-20 minutes to spare, cause that’s about how much music bands seem to write these days, then summer 2018 is the season for you.
A newer band of older men, Horsewhip reunites some early actors of the 90s DIY hardcore scene for a now seasoned and less scrawny approach to the purging of stresses by way of dense guitar savagery, howling throat winds, unpleasant bass abuse, and the pounding drums of a grizzly forrest attack. It’s a somewhat familiar sound filtered through an additional 20+ years of American life and a heavy dose of Floridian swamp dread. It’s thick and it’s heavy. Four unshaven men having a go at it. This is a union of Medicine and Uranus. Speaking of the past, do you like Cursed or His Hero Is Gone but feel sadness because they broke up years ago? Do you miss bands like Reversal of Man, Early Grace, combatwoundedveteran, Order of Importance, and Sutek Conspiracy? Well these guys were in those bands so maybe a couple decades later, you would also like this band, especially since drum recordings have gotten so much better since those days. Limited to 300 copies on orange vinyl. Pressed locally in Florida, land of alligators, pick up trucks, methamphetamines, cockroaches, and elderly white people. Perhaps we can find some extra stickers or other items to sweeten the vinyl purchase. Click Here to listen to a song. Digital available through Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play, etc. Recorded at Rock Garden Studio by Dan Byers. Mixed by Jeremy SH Griffith at Printups Studio Cover art by Richard Minino, graphic design by Shaun Drees. |

RUIN027 - Mob Terror - Superstimulus 12" EP
Debut release from Philly/Jersey heavy noise freaks. Five songs of blasting drums, abrasive angles, poisoned vocals, and bad vibes. Reminds my 40+ year old ears of hot 90s shit like Rorschach, Ice Nine, Discordance Axis, End of the Century Party, UOA, etc. Somewhere between Bovine records and Youth Attack maybe.
45 rpm on the A side, screen print on the B side. Lots of pink.
