–1:
The STORM Demo tape 2.00 €
This is Scene Police number –1 (that's minus one): The first output by The STORM, a devastating two-person Vegan Straight Edge Metal outfit featuring members of Tupamaros and Landscape, assisted by their notorious drum computer named Vegan Destructor. This is not your cheap chugga chugga metal done by dumb 17 year old pre-drop outs. This is brutal technical Death Metal by two guys that have been Vegan Straight Edge for longer than you'll ever be.

Yaphet Kotto “European tour” limited one sided 12" 6.00 €

The two guitar, dual vocal sound is relentless and pulsating with energy and emotion. This will come in a diy-packaging, very simple, but also very nice!

FORSTELLA FORD “well versed in deception” LP/ CD 9.00 €
With a proven track record which features multiple U.S. and European tours, various releases on labels such as Level Plane, Boxcar, and Mountain Collective, and with their clever ingenuity and inventiveness in song-writing, Forstella Ford has found a home with Scene Police for their newest full length. Their songs andoverall structures could be compared to mathematical equations, which feature discordant, frantic, and at times metallic guitars, controlled off-time, dynamic rhtyhms, and wildly yelled, desparate vocals which sound like an individual on the verge of a neurological collapse. Much akin to the infamous D.C. sounds of Circus Lupus, Ignition, and Hoover, Forstella Ford offer a quirky and at times eerie sound that expands into a more aggressive, metallic nature than those before them.

TIGER LOU - 'Gone driftng' 7" (Euro 3,50)
this is the swedish mastermind behind ARAKI going acoustic!!
Three new haunting tracks founded on a lumbering guitar - extremely heartfelt music that will have you singing along instantly. Instead of writing a novel about how important this man is to punk rock, I will just conclude by saying this thing will fly out of stores. The white-vinyl will be limited to 300 copies only.

FOR THE DAY- 'love isn't brains, children...' LP / CD
for the gay Heartfelt songs that kick butt! Sorta sounds like if kid dynamite were covering small brown bike songs with chuck and Jason from hot water music singing. Recommended for all fans of the genre.

029:
CRAVING - 'the fans will shit their pants' DoLP EUR 14,- / CD EUR 9,-
After 10 years of existence "fans will shit their pants" is solid evidence that CRAVING has evolved into one of the most visceral, compelling and necessary bands in Europe. This album is the culmination of hard times and the love of labour. It is more textured, precise, and surreal than their previous ventures, but combined all the pain, all the sex, and all the power of it's predecessors to take the band even further into uncharted musical territory. CRAVING's new album is a lot more laid back than their previous releases yet it will rock the hell out of you! Fans like to call them the german answer to Jesus Lizard and with this new DoLP/CD they will definetly shit their pants!!!

028:
CHILDREN OF FALL - 'ignition for poor hearts' LP / CD
featuring ex members of serene, and hailing from Sweden, children of fall’s new full length will definitely raise eyebrows. “ignition for poor hearts” is an excellent mixture of metallic hardcore and mid 90’s sing-songy emo (before emo become indie rock). Sounds sorta like if “separate the magnets” era grade listened to a lot of early cave-in.
Recommended.

BARRA HEAD - "songs and departures" LP / CD  
no pic yet. BARRA HEAD is a three piece based in Copenhagen, Denmark. They`ve been playing together since the early nineties always progressing and doing their own thing. Although built up around the traditional set-up; vocals, guitar, bass & drums, the music and lyrics can`t easily be described. It consists of both aggressive and, solid as well as minimalistic, melancholic elements. It`s dynamical, emotional and thoughtful. Music for the listener...Imagine a mix of JUNE OF 44, FUGAZI and SHELLAC and you get an idea how these guys sound like! The debut-album “songs and departures” is now available on cd and lp! with distribution help by us... This first full length on PLAY/REC contains 10 songs full of energy, drive and melody.
