Happy Friday!
Today is the drop for BTST054 which is Rochester, NY’s finest JAPANESE KOMBAT CAR!
Another classic underground deathcore band that had talent & just didn’t make it as big as they should! Form around 2006 after 3 local bands broke up, they formed JKC. A wonderful concoction of deathcore with a nice early metalcore sound, these guys sure bring the energy. Vocalist Andrew has pissed vocals that match the angry breakdowns especially when he uses his gutturals, which isn’t too often but when he does it counts. Heavy riffs, sick breakdowns, these guys bring it. They played with bands such as ABACABB, AGATG, Danza, Carnifex. They recorded a Self Titled EP in 2008, then started to record new songs before breaking up unfortunately.
This release will see not only the Self Titled EP, but also the 4 pre production songs before they split. Packaged up on BTST’s brightest and most playful artwork to date! The band wanted to have a fun light weight artwork with a ninja riding a go-kart and of course using his sword as intended! Big thanks to Keith once again for coming up with such a fun design! BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE!
The band found a live set from 2009, so I’ve decided to take on an art project where I made 20 limited edition 3” CD’s containing the live set, spray painted the cds, stencilled the bands initials and hand made each band logo on the front cover. 100% DIY like the old days. These will be tossed into 20 random orders! So good luck!
These are limited to 75 hand numbered copies!
