The snow is on the ground, the presents are under the tree…

With Crustmas right around the corner, we still have plenty of surprises for you kultists...

Introducing , a dark and experimental blend of harsh noise, haunting synth, and rustic banjo.

This release, Town of Freaks, is a multimedia project that collates over a year’s worth of photographs, music, and writings into a single immersive experience...

Purchase a cassette and lose yourself in the liminal, snowy world of Town of Freaks for just 15 dollars...

Included with the cassette is a random collection of up to eight original writings, as well as a selection of eerie, strange, and disturbing black and white photographs pulled from a catalogue of dozens taken this year. No two purchases will be exactly the same!

The majority of the album is now released digitally on NHK bandcamp as well, but some can only be found by scouring that magnetic ribbon reel...

NHK TAPE PURCHASES MADE BEFORE CHRISTMAS CANNOT BE GUARANTEED TO SHIP BEFORE CHRISTMAS

It has finally arrived... the lords of .00 ride out triumphant once again across the north woods of Maine to spread their evil...

A Crumpled Knight’s Vow...

10 tracks of driving, powerful Maine black metal... recorded entirely on analogue equipment most arcane...

Go now quickly, and hear the black gospel of .00 ... streaming now on the NHK bandcamp!

Tapes to come in the following weeks so pay heed, o fallen knights and faithless dogs of war...

Toll the sonorous, jingling holiday bells of damnation because CRUSTMASFEST 2 IS FU***NG COMING...

We promised updates, and holy s**t do we have a lot!

Freakshows, vendors, contests, you name it, we got it.

We are proud to announce that in addition to our sponsors and ,
we have SEVEN other vendors! Hawking their wares in our grim and dimly lit
Crustmas bazaar will be !

And, on top of our already disgustingly stacked lineup of .mapv .pv , a super secret number of super secret sets have been planned as well as a special ritual from an entirely new band to open the night... keep your ears peeled!

And what Crustmasfest would be complete without an array of strange and sinister surprises... take pictures with santacrust on his magic throne, visit Krampus’ hellish boiler room lair, witness Aegir the Giant and his hideous strength... and more!

For those willing to try their luck, there will be a raffle with prizes including band merch, local art, and all sorts of other cool s**t, for just $2 a ticket!!!

And finally, there’s a graffiti contest where you can show off your graf skills on a giant tarp, hung behind the stage for all to see, while bands tear up the stage in front! The theme will be determined online by polling, putting the course of this contest entirely in the grubby hands of the masses! Singups can be completed online or at the door, space is limited so your best shot is to DM us to reserve a spot. Artists can start as soon as the show begins, but the cutoff for painting is 6:00 PM. There can be no painting during changeovers! Graf will be judged with the aid of a very special celebrity guest. DM for any questions.
