I am absolutely gutted by the loss of my dear friend . There wasn’t a kinder, gentler soul on earth and this world is much worse off without him. He consistently made me want to be a better person. He was also insanely talented. He helped run a great label () and since 2012 has been the graphic designer for both Graveface Records and Graveface Films in addition to the other clients he had, of course. He was instrumental in nailing the aesthetic that my label has had for north of a decade. Artful but minimal and beautiful. He taught me not everything has to be sooooo much (I’m a hoarder and as such my innate design style is anything but minimalist). He helped me open my second retail location in Savannah, helped film the videos, was SOOOO supportive when I wanted to launch and even when he was in so much pain recently, helped me finish my first Gacy book (not released yet). I just can’t believe how pure and decent he was. He was so incredibly giving. My love and respect goes out to who has cared for him for many years. You are an amazing person and we are all here for you.

No words. Just an utterly tragic loss for all of humanity.

Love you forever little buddy. xoxo

Shock and tragedy in Greenwood tonight.

A community mourns after poisoned Halloween treats lead to death.

Police say Doreen Clark distributed deadly popcorn balls that led to the murder of seventeen children.

Clark, a frequent Channel 13 guest known as the “Merry Homemaker of Greenwood,” had no previous history of mental illness - leaving her neighbors in disbelief.

However, authorities found Clark hanged in her backyard on November 1st and have confirmed her role in the mass killing. Investigators continue to search for answers as grieving families struggle with the heartbreaking loss of their children.

Remastered from tapes recovered from the Greenwood, Indiana Police Department & featuring the voice of DOREEN CLARK “The woman who killed Halloween” and set to music by THE MARSHMALLOW GHOSTS.

Beyond excited to announce the new Basically Nancy release…WOUNDS!! 11 months ago Basically Nancy (with on drums) went up to Chicago to track with our hero Steve Albini. The concept was simple: track 3 songs live-to-tape with no overdubs (save for vox) in a day. Steve loved the idea and the larger concept is we were gonna do this with a bunch of Graveface artists to celebrate our anniversary. It was an incredibly positive and rewarding experience and my love goes out to his friends and family. Such a rad dude. At any rate, if you want to hear what a live-to-tape Albini session sounds like head to graveface.bandcamp.com (or Spotify). If you like what you hear please consider picking up an LP. They’ll ship in a few weeks. We’ll announce a bunch of Basically Nancy tour dates soon but tonight they’re playing Savannah with Black Lips. Thx for your continued support. xo

Behold! Today we're launching the preorder for MAY YOU DIE WELL by Dreamend. What is this album you ask? A few years ago I dug up the original tapes for Maybe We're Making God Sad and Lonely and had them remixed/remastered (we had zero budget for mixing when the album was originally recorded). We decided to release this new version as MAY YOU DIE WELL which was the original title. It was changed to MWMGSAL after hiring artist William Schaff to produce a cover for us. He titled his artwork MWMGSAL and we thought that was a better title so we went with it. For this new version though we've commissioned new artwork by Chloe Manon and are using the original title as it fits the music more. The mixing by Nick Bassett really makes these old tunes come to life and it's amazing to finally hear this album the way it always should've been heard. Take a song like Can't Take You for example (new version here: https://graveface.bandcamp.com/album/may-you-die-well). You can actually hear/feel the percussion in addition to hearing my screaming part. The entire record is like this. It's pretty exciting tbh.

To celebrate, our friend Clea Cullen made a mini-documentary about this era of Dreamend and even interviewed Christian Savill (Slowdive/Beachy Head) about the time he toured with Dreamend as our bassist randomly in support of this record. Good times/great oldies. Watch the doc below or via YT here:

You can see bits of us performing Iceland at Area 51 and in general acting like idiots 20 years ago.

The LP is LTD to 500 units and the Cassette is LTD to 100 so snag a copy today if this appeals to your interests:

Brand spanking new HOO song up at graveface.bandcamp.com today! Here’s a snippet.

Here's a snippet of Every Tree Shall Fall: One (snippet is called Flowers) from the debut release by Black x Sea (new The Appleseed Cast/Mineral project). Support this new release here: https://graveface.bandcamp.com/album/every-tree-shall-fall-one or www.graveface.com Catch Black x Sea live: 7/25 Sleeping Village in Chicago w/ Fever Haze & Dreamend 7/27 Post Fest in Indianapolis

It was so nice to see HALEY in such an intimate venue last night. If you haven’t checked out her latest album (HUNCA MUNCA) head to our Bandcamp to stream/snag and if you missed out on our (as Terror Vision) release of DANTE’S INFERNO on Blu-ray they’re back in stock as of a few days ago. She put together a rad score for the silent film from 1911. Grab a copy at graveface.com or terror-vision.com. The last printing sold out very quickly (thanks to those that grabbed!!). Hoping to bring her back to Chicago in the fall so stay tuned. xo

A wee preview of the next single (coming next Friday) from @thefeverhaze. Since it’s Bandcamp Friday it’d be a great day to preorder their new record: graveface.bandcamp.com Their tour starts March 22nd in Grand Rapids. Hit their page for full tour details.

Can we just talk about how rad this animation is by @clavlin featuring artwork from @chloemanon__ and music by Marshmallow Ghosts? Super stoked by all these changes/additions to the company. Thx to anyone that has purchased a copy of GFV-001, RIVER, on Blu-ray since the announcement on Monday and/or joined the brand new Graveface Video Club. Much love. xo

The first movie on my new Graveface Films imprint is RIVER from 2023. This movie is seriously a gem. Watch the trailer to get a feel and if you dig grab a copy at graveface.com or terror-vision.com. @chloemanon__ did the incredibly rad artwork for the ltd slipcover version (ltd to 2000 units) and @ryyyyyant did the graphic design (look at that awesome OBI!). We’re really proud of this new line of home video releases and hope you come with us on this journey. xo
