Campaign For Death Metal Purity Tour Kicks Off Today - July 2, 2010

IBEX MOON RECORDS announces partnership with Abyss Records- June 9, 2010
The following is a statement from Incantation/Ibex Moon Records founder, John McEntee:
Ibex Moon Records is now working with Abyss Records for all our online orders. We decided that this would be the best decision to give people a best service possible. Abyss Records has a great reputation in the underground for many years. They are also well known for their quick service and customer satisfaction. Besides that Dan Ferguson, the owner of Abyss Records, has been a friend of mine for over 20 years and has always stuck true himself. Ibex Moon Records over the last year or so has been growing at a enormous rate so we decided this was the appropriate next step with this partnership. Starting immediately Ibex Moon Records will be concentrating more on our releases and artist development and all new online orders will be directed to the Abyss Records website. I would like to take this time to thank everybody that has helped make Ibex Moon records one of the most important death metal labels worldwide. Our future looks great and we look forward to bringing you some best new death metal talent along with some amazing classic reissues.
We are also very proud to announce that Lilith from Lilith's vault is now the official West Coast representative for Ibex Moon records. She will be vending at shows and festivals throughout the West Coast and will be carrying all the Ibex Moon titles. Lilith will also be handling direct sales to West Coast stores, distros, etc. We are happy to have her as part of the Ibex Moon family.
All orders placed before June 9, 2010 will be handled by Ibex Moon records. After the June 9, 2010 will be exclusively handled by Abyss records.
CAMPAIGN FOR DEATH METAL PURITY TOUR 2010 - May 12, 2010
Death Metal has grown weak and soft… with the infiltration of hard-core breakdowns; gravity blasts, emo singing, and MTV saturated “fashion agenda”…what a sad affair when Death Metal becomes another genre of “POP MUSIC!”
IBEX MOON RECORDS would like to invite the True Death Metal Elite to a series of select dates across the United States of America! A Tour designed for the sole purpose of taking Death Metal back to its roots, a time when metal wasn’t a fashion statement and Death Metal came from some place much more sinister and far more deadly!
John McEntee, IBEX MOON RECORDS label mastermind & Guitarist/Vocalist for Death Metal legends INCANTATION had this to say about the campaign. “With all the trends in Metal these days and all these fest type tours that mostly only highlight the flavor of the month bands. We wanted to put together a tour with 3 strong Death Metal bands that all in their own right have proven themselves to be true warriors of death!!! Each band has forged their own legacy by being 100% true to themselves and it shows with their intense live performances. This is the time to take back our underground scene and show your support to some of Death Metal’s top extreme bands. Death Metal is Eternal Under the Ibex Moon.”
“Some may call this movement the New Wave of Old School Death Metal or NWOSDM, well F**K THAT BULLS**T! There is no "New Wave" in Death Metal! We have never stopped hailing the olden way! The trendwhores have tried to take over our sacred music and call it "Death Metal", but we are taking it back with extreme force! This tour is one of the battles we wage in our war, the posers shall be cleansed!!!" states Mike Abominator, vocalist for California’s Metal of Death Merchants GRAVEHILL.
Coming from a town with such Death Metal legends like MASTER and CIANIDE, Guitarist/Vocalist Adam “Deathrot” Scott of Chicago’s CARDIAC ARREST elaborate on their involvement in these dates of death! "We look forward to storming the U.S., spreading Death Metal hell to all who attend, and a slow horrible death to some hipster dorks… but that's another case. We shall ROT together!!!"
The Texas Cult known as HOD are here to kill you one decibel at a time! ”What’s happened to the Death Metal scene is exactly what happened to America. Once discipline turned into abuse, America bred a generation of emotional, panty-waist, white leather wearing pussies! We've allowed these mouth breathing vermin to run gaily through our scene spewing their unoriginal garbage all over the f**king planet calling it "Death Metal" and the dogs eat it up like the vomit that it is! Well it's all over! With this tour the TRUE Metal Underground is taking back Death Metal and impaling the posers, you can't f**kin' stop US!!!" claims vocalist Vladibeer Reebs!
16 Dates and 16 Cities… Death to those who oppose us!!!
In other GRAVEHILL news…
Founding Member and Drummer for GRAVEHILL (Rhett “THORGRIMM” Davis – MORGION, KEEN OF THE CROW, and CRIMSON RELIC) had this statement regarding the new 666-Stringer joining the GRAVEHILL touring ranks… “With the set back made in the departure of guitarist ZYKLON-A, we felt that we really need to up the ante in the GRAVEHILL ILLUMINATI! We placed ad’s, ran some press (as much as we could?) and inquired with a few band-brothers on filling the position for this tour. Of all the guitarists contacted I expected this guy to tell me to go fuck myself! I guess a strange twist of fate happened and he actually agreed to take on the 666 String Raids for GRAVEHILL (THE FOOL!), his name without further a due is… Matt “HELLFIEND” Harvey (EXHUMED, DEKAPITATOR, and REPULSION fame). Matt and I have been pals for many years and tried on a few occasions to do band projects together, so I guess we got the chance after all! So any of you f**ks ready to see Hellfiend don the spikes and blood and head-bang to the METAL OF DEATH … here’s your chance, you’ve been warned mother**kers!!!”
Matt “HELLFIEND” Harvey had this to say about his new found position behind the 666-Strings of GRAVEHILL… “I've been a fan of GRAVEHILL since Rhett/THORGRIMM gave me the "Practitioners of Fell Sorcery" demo years ago, and the timing for the tour worked out perfectly, so I had to get on board. I'm psyched to hop in the van with these maniacs and spread the gospel of real Death Metal!!! Faces will be melted and poseurs will be slaughtered, so come out and rage with us this July!”

MASSACRE AFTERPARTY
Giving a new twist to horror, the Afterparty Massacre, brings metal, blood and gore back to the screen! Written by Kristoff (Horrormerch.com/Spookygirls.com) and Kyle Severn (Incantation, Acheron, and other various band projects), Afterparty Massacre is one killer party with mind-blowing amounts of blood, metal and flesh!
Afterparty Massacre centers around live performances by Incantation and Soulless. During the show they encounter a mysterious female fan, that has a run in with an ex-boyfriend who gets a little rough with her. During this altercation she has flashbacks of a dark past and transforming into a bloodthirsty killer on a mission to kill anyone and everyone in her way until no one is left. "She loves waiting for the perfect moment to attack her victims. Her bloodlust can not be contained and within the final scenes she unleashes her wrath on the band as well as the crowd until no one is left standing!"
Kristoff mentions.
Plus, the soundtrack itself is a major part of this production including bands such as: 16volt, Acheron, Asphyx, Cardiac Arrest, Crucifier, Cyanotic, Defcon, Denial Fiend, Divine Eve, Estuary, Everything Goes Cold, Fatalist, Funerus, Goreaphobia, Gravehill, Keratoma, Lifeless, Luxury Pushers, Master, Pentacle, Ventana and many more! Incantation will be performing new exclusive songs within the movie. While Denial Fiend, Goreaphobia, Ventana and a few other bands will have unreleased exclusive tracks for this feature as well. "The music is just as important to this movie as the blood and gore." Kyle mentions. "The music itself really makes the scenes, it really completes the soundscape for a total massacre. We plan on releasing a CD of the bands featured in the movie via Ibex Moon around the time of the release of the film as well."
Along with the overdose on blood, metal, and booze comes the sideshow aspect as well. "We've 'hooked up' with a suspension crew and we're bringing in a few friends of ours to do up some piercing and suspension performances as well." adds Kristoff. "We wanted to bring in these dangerous aspects within this subcultre that don't always get the most attention. We'll have guys suspended by meathooks flying through the air, guys with split tounges, all sorts of different body modifications and performance piercings everywhere! Having this dangerous attraction will be a great addition to this movie for sure, and the best part is that IT IS a real event that we are filming!"
The film is to be shot between February-March 2010, with a tentative summer release date in open markets. "With Incantation playing the Maryland Deathfest, we figured this would be the absolute best time for the release. Tons of black/death metal and lots of blood, it's an ideal release date for this movie!" mentions Kyle in regards to the release of the film.
Look for both the Afterparty Massacre and CD soundtracks due out in late May.

IBEX MOON to unleash hell in 2010! - December 22, 2009
As the planet completes yet another journey around the Sun and we enter a new year, North America's premier death metal label, Ibex Moon Records, is offering a double shot of brutality to kick your 2010 off the right way.
On January 19th, Ibex Moon will unleash two highly anticipated releases from what are arguably among the underground's most revered extremists - HEADHUNTER DC and DIVINE EVE.
Headhunter DC is Brazil’s foremost authority on blending sickening thrash and ungodly blackness with a distinctly Latin American style of soul scarring death metal. Easily the band’s greatest recorded achievement on virtually every level (songwriting, production, ferocity, etc) God’s Spreading Cancer is the soundtrack to mankind’s eternal descent into Hell.
Includes bonus Necrovore cover and three bonus live tracks exclusive to the Ibex Moon Records version of the death metal masterpiece.
After fifteen years of silence, the pure sonic violence of Divine Eve has returned. Reforming in 2008, these veterans of doomy death metal went straight to work writing new material that would bring back the true meaning of ‘old-school.’ The end result has come to pass as the four-song MCD, Vengeful And Obstinate. True to Divine Eve form, this release promises the most punishing and bludgeoning brand of death metal known to man. With a history that traces back to 1992, Divine Eve has reached a cult-like status in the world of underground metal, releasing demos and EPs both independently and through Nuclear Blast Records over the years.
Although conflicts and hostilities tore the band itself apart, the name Divine Eve (and more importantly, the music) has never left the collective, blackened hearts of the band’s fans, nor its members.
Determined to take care of their unfinished business, three of the four original members, Michael A. Sleavin (rhythm guitar / vocals), Matthew Killen (drums) and Xan Hammack (lead guitar / vocals) reunited for the long-awaited second coming of Divine Eve. RIDE THE WINGS OF ARMAGEDDON!
DIVINE EVE will be joining INCANTATION for a European tour in January.
