EMBERS - Resurrection.mp3

BLACK SEPTEMBER - Creation of Chaos

These five guys combine the classic scandicore sound of Tompa Lindberg era’s Disfear with the speed and the dark melodies of swedish crust of Wolfbrigade and Skitsystem with a touch of speed rock’n’roll à-la Motörhead.

FREDAG DEN 13:E - En Slav av Idag

Debut full-length for this great band from Northern Italy with members of Jilted. These five veterans of the scene play like a blackened death crust that I don’t hesitate to define the Italian d-beat answer to the mighty Entombed, with a touch of black metal and some melodic riffs of “Tragedyan” memory…

BLAND VARGAR - Bivium.mp3

After a 12″ on Plague Island Records and the split EPs with Pyramido (Plague Island) and Bombs of Hades (Doomentia), here’s the first full-length for Usurpress, a new kick-ass band from Uppsala (SWE), featuring “old” starring of the punk/metal scene: Stefan “Steffe” Petterson, singer from Diskonto and Uncurbed and Daniel Ekeroth, bass player from Dellamorte, Tyrant, Iron Lamb and also author of the book Swedish Death metal.
They call their music Death crust. The aim of this Swedish quartet is to combine the bestiality of old Death metal and the undying hate and aggression of true Crustcore. Also mixed into this deadly cocktail are the unpredictable chord structures of progressive rock. Primitive and complex, majestic and crude – The music of the courts of Neanderthal emperors. Real riffs. Real songs.. Soon destined to become a cult band.

USURPRESS - Coronation of the Crippled King

ICONOCLAST records and distribution is based in a small entrance hall in our house in Bologna, Italy.

THE STORY SO FAR:

We’re born in early 2009 from the ashes of PMC Records, AccidiaHC Records and NBP Records.
We come from the hardcore punk “scene”, the most linked to the political content; in recent years we have seen this kind of angry music and attitude to evolve, some bands have taken advantage of playin’ in squats and apparently following the “do it yourself” way to arrive at a later step made of fashion clubs, money and few contents, some are split-up, some persist in their uncompromising attitude and hold high the teachings of the so-called old school, some have revisited the genre and have led it to new waves. We want to continue to pursue a type of conduct unbound by market rules, and support the bands that we feel similar, without fossilize ourselves too much on their interpretation of what we call punk, hardcore, crust, metal, etc…

NOW:

ICONOCLAST turns into the dark side!
As a natural consequence of having extended our musical taste, we decided to move our label to new horizons, mostly focused on (atmospheric) black metal, old school death metal, (funeral) doom metal and sludge metal. Here’s the new face of Iconoclast, always dressed in black!

“On the dark side, under the moon, the wolves gather” (Ulver)

You can send us your demo or promo (no matter on which format), we’ll be glad to listen to it, but please contact us before via e-mail.

ICONOCLAST supports all the struggles carried out by anarchists, good communists, rebels, prisoners, workers with conscience, thieves with a cause everywhere…

… AND SO NAZI-FASCIST SCUM GO FUCK YOURSELF!
