Crucifist Sign to FETO

19 April 2008

FETO Records are pleased to announce the signing of Rochester, New York-based old-school black/death metal band CRUCIFIST. CRUCIFIST features in its ranks bassist Dan Lilker (NUCLEAR ASSAULT, BRUTAL TRUTH) as well as Mike Waske (drums), and John Gallo (guitar, both members of US traditional doom stalwarts ORODRUIN).   

CRUCIFIST has been crafting a unique mix of old-school black and death metal, influenced by doom and NWOBHM, since their formation in 2004, and are proud to be working with FETO Records to release up their long-awaited full-length debut, which is on schedule for a summer release. 

The as-yet untitled album was produced by the band with technical assistance from Jason McCabe (SHIT, ABBASCAB), mixed and mastered at Belgium's AK Productions (live sound for NAPALM DEATH) and is on schedule for a summer release

Mistress Break Up.... FETO Band shake up.

4 March 2008

Bear with us, there's a lot to take in...

Sludge-grind legends Mistress and rock quintet Exploder have decided to call it a day. The overlapping personnel involved in both bands have been making music together in various forms for a number of years. Multi-instrumentalist Mick Kenney’s side project Frost is also to be no more. Each of these projects has been successful in their own right; Mistress having produced four unique albums, appeared on BBC’s Never Mind The Buzzcocks and toured with then-label mates Municipal Waste; Frost's albums being described as "the albums Mayhem should have made" by Kerrang magazine and Exploder opening Bloodstock 2007 alongside former AC/DC drummer Chris Slade.

The clear-out will leave Kenney and Mistress vocalist Dave more free to concentrate on Anaal Nathrakh - who will be performing at the first ever FETO Obliteration Fest (London, UK), as well as at the Maryland Deathfest (USA) in May, and at Hellfest (France) in June. Guitarist Misery will be continue to play bass in the live line up of Anaal Nathrakh, and will also be working on a new yet-to-be named project.  Mick also has a brand new band in the pipeline and claims it contains all elements of everything he has done in the past and more.  Guitarist Drunk is currently rumoured to be working with Post-Punk 'forbidden lovers of the first whore' Bee Stung Lips.  Mistress bassist/Exploder singer Dirty Von Donovan is as yet biding his time and oiling his biceps.  Dave is also scheduled to be recording a new album with Death Metal veterans Benediction very soon, with Mick lined up to produce.
 
The bands leave behind them a rich legacy of abject misery, self abuse, bleak obsession with evil and fist-in-the-air, pelvic rock.

Camorra R.I.P

18 December 2007

After three years together, Camorra have decided to call it a day. Unfortunately, their untimely demise will mean the planned release for FETO Records will now no longer surface. However, we wish them all luck in their future projects.

They released a short statement (which can be read in it's entirety on the blog on their myspace page) as follows:

We've been through various ups and downs in the past couple of years, as well as going through a variety of line up changes. In short, we have decided the band had run its course, and it was best to end while we're still (just about) ahead!
