Malfunction announce new album, 'Fear of Failure'
As one of Bridge Nine's most recent roster additions, Buffalo, NY's Malfunction are elated to announce the release of their new full-length album Fear of Failure on November 20th. Sign up for pre-order notifications at B9Store.com.
Recorded at GCR Recording Studios with Jay Zubricky, mixed by Taylor Young (Nails, Twitching Tongues), and mastered by Paul Leavitt (Turnstile, Darkest Hour), Fear of Failure is a harsh and uncompromising bout of metallic hardcore. The band's first proper release in three years after touring extensively with the likes of Bane, Turnstile, Backtrack, and Harm's Way shows them progressing considerably, adopting a loose and raw yet thoroughly heavy strain aggressively exorcising the demons of personal anxieties and volatile relationships.
The quintet formed in 2011 and wasted little time getting music out to the world with their Locals Onlydemo, followed by an appearance on the Bad Meets Evil compilation. This soon led to them getting picked up by upstate hardcore standby Reaper Records, who released their Finding My Peace EP in 2012, with the band issuing a cassingle in the summer of 2013 (all the while touring the country to get deserved widespread attention). Fear of Failure will thus mark their first batch of new material in over two years.
Following the release of Fear of Failure, Malfunction will embark on a North American tour with Terror, Code Orange and others. Check out the tour dates below along with Fear of Failure track listing and stay tuned for song premieres and more info coming soon.
Fear of Failure track listing:
1. Drained
2. Fear of Failure
3. Cut Off
4. WIndow of Illusion
5. Final Thoughts
6. Drift
7. Guilt
8. Sonic
9. Release

BoySetsFire premiere "Savage Blood" lyric video on APTV
BoySetsFire have premiered the lyric video for their new song, "Savage Blood", over at Alternative Press's APTV section. Stream the previously released "Cutting Room Floor" below as well.
BoySetsFire is due out September 25 via Bridge Nine in the U.S./Canada and End Hits Records everywhere else. North Americans are encouraged to browse pre-order options at B9Store.com and everyone else from End Hits. The LP and CD versions will be in retail stores in the U.S./Canada on November 20.
Modern Pain's 'Peace Delusions' out today
Modern Pain's new album, Peace Delusions, is out today. Pick up an LP, CD or digital copy atB9Store.com. Download it from iTunes or Bandcamp, or stream it via Spotify below. Physical copies will be in retail stores within the next two weeks.
Peace Delusions might be described as "if In Utero was a hardcore punk record", but even that might be underselling the Dallas, Texas band's first full-length. This new album resembles a golden artifact unearthed from the '80s American hardcore underground, harnessing the unbridled aggression of groundbreaking acts like SSD, Poison Idea and Infest and filtering it through the caustic, ashy atmospheres and unfettered noise rock of Texan predecessors Scratch Acid and the Jesus Lizard, as well as Moss Icon's murky, wordy pathos. This unpredictable, nerve-damaging, half-hour-long debut full-length remains at its core, however, a spacey, noisy punk record all its own.
H2O announce European tour
H2O have announced a European tour in support of their forthcoming album, Use Your Voice. These will come just before the band embark on a previously announced U.S. tour with Angel Du$t and GIVE, and Florida dates with the Attack and Boys No Good. Check out their entire itinerary here, with new dates below.
Use Your Voice is due out October 9 and will be preceded by a two-song teaser EP, Skate!, due out next week, September 11. Both tracks from Skate! are currently streaming online, and you can check them out below as well. Pre-order Use Your Voice on LP, CD, and digital formats at B9Store.com, with iTunes, Amazon (LP // CD // MP3), and Bandcamp pre-orders available as well.
H2O UNVEILS DETAILS FOR NEW FULL-LENGTH ALBUM, 'USE YOUR VOICE' Coming October 9th from Bridge Nine Records / Watch the video for "Skate!", feat. Steve Caballero It's been seven years since the release of a proper full-length album from H2O (2008's critically-acclaimed Nothing To Prove).
The title track from H2O's forthcoming album, 'Use Your Voice'.
