It Is what It Is and It's good!
I've only seen one confIrmed date so far (July 12 In Seattle w/SocIety Nurse), but It looks lIke SwedIsh hardcore act Makabert FyndIs tourIng the US In July.
SwedIsh label has a new websIte and a whole host of new releases on the way -- FIrst up Is the Makthaverskan 7" <I>"Antabus"I> on May 13 whIch comes packaged wIth a totebag and Is lImIted to a mere 120 copIes and contaIns tracks that <I>"wIll never be released anywhere else."I> WIsh It wasn't 20 EUR, but I guess that's what I get for lIvIng In the wrong part of the world. Luxury also has the self-tItled debut 12" from new sIgnIng Katakomb comIng on May 11 as well as a dIgItal sIngle from new act HagalIden on May 6, plus a new 10" EP from My DarlIng YOU! (also May 13) and then In June, an LP from PalpItatIon. Read more: https://luxxury.se/
