Cold Craving: Reach Down

Change

No shows for a while. Regroup, rebuild…. new things. Will periodically post updates from our respective dark holes where music occasionally emanates.

Futurist

The rise of fantasy and post-apocalyptic escapism is evidence of the civilized male’s biophilic frustration: he yearns for the immediacy that the struggle for survival affords. He rarely goes so far as to wish for the apocalypse to actualize but he immerses himself in simulated environments (his open space gaming worlds, zombie movies and dystopic novels, etc) that are hostile yet navigable, environments more akin to his pre-civilized habitat. His desire to escape in this way specifically shows that somewhere in his psyche he dearly misses the ever hostile, violently selected, vibrantly green habitat that he paved over in his terribly relentless fight from any and all uncertainty or suffering. Now suffocating in security, distracted by abstraction and trapped in the haphazardly soiled surroundings he has constructed out of crushed rocks and flaming, fossilized shit, he remains physically sedentary. Yet his head is whirling around an intricate globe of imitated immediacy, affording him the opportunity of flexing his instincts at phantoms of his long lost organic experience. -W

Psyched to see Sigil again…. should be awesome.

Getting Frostimental (the series!?!?!)

So winter is en route and the icy depths of misery have taken hold. We’ve decided Feckless Son will be our last LP for quite some time. Forthcoming will be a collection/shabby display of singles, ambient songs, noise, and sacrilege… Posted here, sometimes live video, sometimes MP3s, sometimes something else entirely…. Sporadic, absurd Cold Rituals I’ve hastily dubbed “Getting Frostimental”.

Why? Hey, fuck you.

LIMITED TO DEATH

So when we received our new LP in the mail, we were psyched. Psyched, that is, until we saw that Fedex had punched the boxes holding our LPs to death.

Unfortunately, the carnage left 40 jackets completely fucked and un-usable, as you can see here:

Thankfully, the vinyl itself was completely and totally unharmed, and nothing can outdo the indomitable will and can-do spirit of this fucking local band so we rolled up our sleeves and said “how do we still trick people into wasting their ducats on this record?” we came up with a conclusion so dastardly, so maddening, so… goddamn crazy that we simply had to share it with you. So, here it is.

for the next 40 shows, there will be a one-of-a-kind CC LP with a cover created for that specific show. Literally limited to one. Every idea we can think of has been kicked around over beers at Wild Rose but if you’d like to contribute your own cover ideas please feel free to email them to coldcraving@gmail.com. Some of our current musings/ammonia-addled suggestions:

Birdflesh Collection Edition
-A sweet pic of my birdflesh collection on front and back. No fucking tracklist/heaven.

Nardwuar Holds The LP Edition
- we send nardwuar a pic of the LP and get him to take a pic with it. Or I photoshop it into his hands. Whatever

Haunting The Chapel Stolen Edition
- I replace the words “haunting the chapel” with “Cold Craving” but leave “Slayer” there and put on cover.

Just A Million Pics Of Rod Edition
- enough said

A Y H S M B Edition
-pic of Jay Z holding LP and fapping

P-Far Anniversary Edition
- Penny Farthing anniversary edition, featuring a history of the penny farthing on the rear cover

Covered Up Korn Tattoo edition
- a pic of Burgers covered up korn tattoo on the cover

Much Ado About Sonki Edition
- I photoshop this pic to have nothing but Sonki faces and change the text to “Much Ado About Sonki” http://www.impawards.com/1993/posters/much_ado_about_nothing_xlg.jpg

Test Press Edition
-Front cover is pic of famous Test Press, like Rocket To Russia or something, back is simply a disclaimer that it isn’t a Ramones record, void void void

Sweepstakes Edition
-A sweepstakes ticket that grants the holder absolutely fucking nothing but a punch in the face

Crust Vest Edition
-cut out a little jean vest to fit the LP, draw dis-crust logos and put studs on it

OHM

Feckless Son on eschatonindustries.com, iTunes, other online barfspots

If you want an LP, get it from the Eschaton Webstore… if you don’t, get a digital copy from iTunes or eMusic…

Words of wisdom on this somber autumn morn

You go to church and sit down on the bench

you close your eyes and listen to the priest

preacher of lies raping your mind

thousands of bibles fill your house

all your stupid shit about all this stupid shit

for me there’s only one way to say it

satan is boss. I kick on the cross

slaughtered christians in my garden

lambsteak on my plate

an inverted cross on my head

a pentagram tattooed in my face

jesus and god think you are funny

when you bitch and give them your money

evil shall rise dark and nice

satan is boss, and I kick on the cross

kick! kick! kick on the cross!

Monster Mosh!!1!
