Atlanta, the energy on Saturday blew me away. I’ve been speechless. We have also still been busy breaking down everything 😅
I’ve been in a state of surreality after seeing it all come together EXACTLY the way we imagined it, EXACTLY the way Jim Bob drew it, and EXACTLY the OG homie vibes we wanted to bring with this festival series.
TLDR: Thank you to our crew, the amazing bands, and sponsors for coming together and making the first L5P Summer Concert Series a wild success!
First, before I go any further, I have to express how proud and grateful I am for our crew that slayed on every level. The L5P Summer Concert Series is a completely independent, DIY festival, so the amount of work we had for one person was intense. Not a single detail of this festival was a small task, but every single team member helped in the most essential of ways, without any complaints. We even recruited the help of an OG off the streets (I’ll tell the story of Uncle Jeff later).
Next, I want to thank Royal Thunder, Fiend Without a Face, Order of the Owl and all of the other friends who played (many of whom I am honored to practice with over at ember city) - this could not have happened without the sheer weight of talent that Atlanta has to offer, and every single member put their all onto that stage on Saturday and I can’t thank y’all enough. It’s special what we have here and I hope everyone feels and knows that 🖤
On that note, I want to give a major MAJOR shoutout to our local ATL business sponsors, and entities that supported us from the beginning:
L5P Biz
Southern Star Tattoo
Renegade Tattooing Co
Dark Sails Entertainment
East Atlanta Comics
Road Ready Production Resources (RRPR)
I’m so proud of this city and every single musician, artist, and creative individual who perseveres and overcomes their daily struggles. Don’t ever give up. Don’t ever tell yourself you can’t do it, because you can.
📰 Lots of fun stuff! Apostle plays Corndogorama coming up on June 21st-23rd. Anti-Sapien hits the road on June 20th on the way to New England Death Metal Funtime Bonanza. And of course our boys in Slugcrust have their EP dropping June 28th. Preorder it today💥

😅 The irony in telling people to go follow our artists on Spotify while also dogging Spotify CEO’s out is not lost on me. We do what we have to, but we don’t have to like it. It’s also Bandcamp Friday and now is the best time to support your favorite independent artist directly. Don’t support these corporations, but take advantage of the tools at hand. Underground IS a movement. Head over to our website, Terminus Hate City DOT com for more 🌆

🗣️ DOG GONE UNLEASHED
It’s difficult to stay motivated in a music industry where CEO’s of top corporations refuse to acknowledge the rest of the industry they work in, but I suppose nothing is new on that capitalistic front.
All I can say is, MAKE SURE YOUR PEOPLE ARE PAID. They will do right by you, and as an artist, that content IS gold. Spotify’s CEO is out of touch, but you aren’t.
@slugcrust new single and video for “V4” is out now.

🐜 Ants brutally eating a slug while it’s still alive then dying from the slug’s toxins is one of the most metal things I’ve ever heard of… which is why @snakesandacid used this sickening footage to create a trippy grindcore video for the homies in @slugcrust 🐌
👉 “V4” is out now and up on our YouTube channel. Let us know what you think. Have a great Memorial Day folks!
🐌 SLUGCRUST’S NEW SINGLE AND MUSIC VIDEO “V4” IS OUT TODAY. PEEP THE MINUTE AND A HALF LONG GRIND TRACK ON OUR YT CHANNEL 📺
🗣️ A quote from SLUGCRUST:
🐺 “At its core, “V4” is about that dog in us. “Cerberus Paribus,” the chant reiterated in the song “V4” is the bastardization of a Latin phrase meaning “all other things being equal,” loudly attributed to those of us who got that dog in them, too.” 🐺

💣 Big ups to Lord Randall and Rebel Extravaganza for this riveting Slugcrust review 📖 Next week the Greenville Grindy boiz drop their second single off DISCHARGE(D) titled “V4”… EP will be out on June 28th. Vinyl and cassette preorders are up on the Terminus Hate City webstore
FFO: grindcore, crust punk, goregrind, hardcore

🎶 I am not a fan of the lineups that Music Midtown’s had to offer, but I do think this sucks because I feel like live music is dying. The entertainment + service industry in Atlanta is huge. Losing this means a lot of people out of work, and a lot of money lost, not just the fest organizers.

🤘 Massive thanks to everyone who’s listened to “Feral Natural”, checked out the music video and preordered a copy so far!

🎸 As a lot of you probably know, it is Bandcamp Friday today. I originally put the new release up on Bandcamp to preorder, but Bandcamp’s fees have become so outrageous, as an independent record label, it doesn’t make sense to continue to sell products via Bandcamp. Please head to the Terminus Hate City website for any and all THC artist physical media purchases 🙏 I will continue to keep all of our music on BC, available for digital purchase only (and anyone who buys a physical copy off of our site will receive a free download code for that particular release).
