It seems like a lifetime since the last show, however by the time this comes around it will only have been two and a bit years.

Anyway, F H E D will be wading back into gigs in 2024; the first show to announce will be at The Moon Cardiff with Hidden Mothers and Copse.

More details in the coming weeks/months; if all goes to plan this will not be the F H E D comeback show.

We are beyond stoked to announce that we will be going on tour with our good friends in Copse in February 2024! We have never played in 3/4 of these places before so we can't wait to get out there and melt some new faces!

05/10/2023

So it may have been a year since the last one, but Issue 17 of Endless Disappoint is out tomorrow.

In this issue we have interviews with Amputated official, Hellripper, FACELESS BURIAL, Cryptworm and Atvm. We also have FOETAL JUICE talk about their recent European Tour with Nganga, Puzzles, an introduction to Night Terrors Records, as well as Dave from Gouger rating a selection of Head Explosions from Cinematic History.

On Sale tomorrow via https://fhed.bandcamp.com/

Announcement Time.

We've been sitting on this for a bit, but it's with most cromulence that I can confirm F H E D will be overseeing the Tape release of Vacuous' upcoming album "Dreams of Dysphoria".

The mega-powers that are Me S**o Un Ojo Records and Dark Descent Records will be overseeing the release on other formats.

Release details to come in the coming weeks, however in the meantime pop over to Vacuous' Bandcamp page for an exclusive peak at the track "Body of Punishment"

Good News! After the first run sold on in fairly quick fashion, we can confirm a repress of Burial Røt's MMXXI Demo will be on sale via the F H E D Bandcamp as of this Friday. Copies will also be available through the band at shows in due course.

It's unlikely we'll see another repress, as I'm pretty certain they're working on new material, so try not to sleep on this one if you did last time.

I was going to wait until next week, but something else is happening next week so just going to put it out there now.

The latest issue of Endless Disappointment is out now. Featuring interviews with Coffin Mulch, Death Goals, De Profundis, FOSSILIZATION, HAAST, Kurokuma, Sacred Son, Sadistic Force, Shooting Daggers, Slaegt, Undeath and VOW, alongside a myriad of daft features and puzzles.

So Razoreater's Purgatory EP is now available online through F H E D and will begin shipping early next week.

For anyone who was lucky enough to get a ticket, and will be at the Na**lm Death show in Leeds this weekend, Razoreater will have copies of the 12" on sale there too. That show's lineup is great fairplay, Raging Speedhorn, Voorhees and Celestial Sanctuary are supporting.

Cheers for your patience everyone!

So when I put the Razoreater EP out last year, I didn't expect any media outlets whatsoever to give it any attention; fast forward 6 or so months and here are some of my favourite quotes from outlets, some of whom I never thought would give a F H E D release the time of day.

Shout out to Frenchie at PR Trail for making the F H E D press-mechanics far less of a dumpster-fire than it used to be.

Also, if you have a free moment, go read CVLT Nation's words on the EP, it's as wild as it is inaccurate.

01/03/2022

So Razoreater have gone and done a snazzy little video for "Set Fire to the Preacher" off the Purgatory EP that came out last year.

Tapes still up through the F H E D Bandcamp page. In other news, watch this space Thursday for something that's taken its sweet time to get here, but it's here.

So Bandcamp have published a rather cromulent article about the UK Death Metal scene, and how it's rather good at the moment.

Not only is good insight given into bands like Celestial Sanctuary, Coffin Mulch, Slimelord, Mortuary Spawn and Cryptic Shift, but our own Vacuous, Burial Røt and Crypt Rot have been given focus too. Andy from Dry Cough Records and I have thrown our thoughts into the mix too, with one paragraph I'm particularly pleased they used.

Anyway, definitely worth reading, even if just for acknowledging the humour that almost-all the people referenced in the "Young Upstarts of UK Death Metal" are over 30 and thus probably suffering from stiff knees and backpain.

Checking in with a few of the bands bringing the UK death scene back to life.

20/12/2021

So we're nearing year's end so time to sign off for a bit.

Cheers to Razoreater , Thundering Hooves , Defod , Burial Røt , Wallowing , Crypt Rot and SHLS for working with me this year to release music; not forgetting as well gratitude to Underdark , Tides Of Sulfur , Levitas and Black Pyre - Music for making my first show in 2 years a nice occasion.

Thanks to everyone else who supported the label this year too. For regular supporters: the F H E D greeting card will find its way to you soon if it hasn't already (artwork courtesy of Abbie 'Stabby' Art and her most-cromulent creative skills).

Anyway. See you in 2022. Safe.

Cheers to everyone who came to the show on Saturday, was rather nice to see some familiar faces. Top to bottom everyone was dead good, so much gratitude to Underdark , Tides Of Sulfur , Levitas and Black Pyre - Music for bringing the goods and to Tiny Rebel Cardiff for their exquisite hospitality.

F H E D will return, until then though I need to clear the storm damage from my allotment and catch up on sleep.
