APEX FEST III - UPDATE

I'm pleased to announce that we've made arrangements with CHASHAMA to allow adults the age of 18 and over to enter APEX FEST III, and for those over 21, a limited selection of cheap beer and mixed drinks will be available for a suggested donation of $3, which will go directly toward our venue rental fees. We will have wristbands to distinguish between those legally able to purchase alcohol and those who are not.

Two DJ LEECH mp3 mixes featuring music by the acts in the festival lineup have been posted to the APEX FEST III webspace.

Please support truly independent music in NYC by purchasing advance tickets for APEX FEST III. The cost of admission goes directly toward the various logistical expenses inherent in producing an event of this magnitude. if you intend to come to the festival, YOU MUST PURCHASE TICKETS IN ADVANCE.
PRICE INCLUDES LIMITED FESTIVAL TSHIRT + POSTER

Listener-supported radio station WFMU will be giving away two sets of 2-day passes (or four 1-day passes) on the air. More information on that to come, here's something from their list of upcoming programs:

"GNAW
Tuesday, December 8th, 3pm - 6pm
on Brian Turner's show
As former member of O.L.D. and Khanate, Alan Dubin has etched a blackened hash mark forever into the totem pole of tortured throat purveyors; his terrifyingly raw, sometimes electronically manipulated shrieks are a thing of alien nature to say the least. GNAW began in 2006 with members of Burning Witch, Enos Slaughter, Ike Yard and sound design wizard Brian Beatrice, released their debut "This Face" this past year on Conspiracy, and are making some radio doom this afternoon on BT's show. You can also catch GNAW live on Saturday, November 14th at the Apex Fest III, which happens on the 13th as well at Chashama Arts, 217 E 42nd Street in Manhattan."

THE GOSPELS OF THE GASH-10.20.09

"And again, no more gods! no more gods! Man is King,
Man is God! But the great faith is Love!"
- Arthur Rimbaud


I'm somewhat surprised by the fact that i have anything to report so soon after the last update, but it would seem as though things are indeed moving forward.

I've sent the layout for the MARTIN BLADH cd to the pressing plant and paid half of the fees. now, i've just got to fill out paperwork and submit the audio master, which will be done by the end of the week. by their calculations, the cds should be in my hands by the 6th of november.

One track for the THEOLOGIAN collaboration with THE VOMIT ARSONIST has been completed, as have the layouts for both the cassette and cdr. as previously announced, the shirts are in-stock. once the audio is completed, the cassettes and cdrs will be duped and all should be ready to ship around the middle of november.

Things are falling into place for APEX FEST III. the festival shirts will be going to the printers by the end of this week and if all goes well, the new THEOLOGIAN merch should be produced in time for the NORTHEAST NOISE & POWER ELECTRONICS FEST.

I can not stress enough that if you are planning to attend APEX FEST III, YOU MUST PURCHASE TICKETS IN ADVANCE. this is not a kindly suggestion, it is imperative if you want to come to the show. we presently have no plans whatsoever to take money at the door on the days of the shows, and in fact your payments go directly toward helping with the various expenses involved with organising such a massive event.
http://www.annihilvs.org/APEX_FEST_III

This page will shortly be updated with a podcast/mp3 mix fesaturing tracks from each artist on the lineup.

Look for new distro items in the ANNIHILVS webstore next weekend, and some updating to several websites, myspace profiles, and various periphery is coming.

There's just so much happening at once, it's both exciting and totally fucking daunting.

Thanks for looking and listening...

THE GOSPELS OF THE GASH-10.11.09

"Altruism (living for others), is actually the most vicious principle ever stated, the source of all evil, the principle of slavery, dependence and degradation."
- Ayn Rand

Greetings.
As the autumn months move onward, i find the various broken pieces of my life coalescing back into something that more closely resembles stability.

Thank you to everyone who has placed preorders and orders on the new webstore. due to various production issues, as well as the planning for APEX FEST III, those items which had previously been listed with october ship dates need to be pushed back. as of now, the new tshirts for THE VOMIT ARSONIST are in stock, but the audio still needs to be worked on. i will be completing the layout for the MARTIN BLADH cd in the next week, and the disc will go to press toward the end of this month. other releases are in progress, and if all goes well, everything should be ready by the end of november, and hopefully the majority of it will be in stock around the same time as the fest.

Also remember that THEOLOGIAN will be performing at the second annual NORTHEAST NOISE & POWER ELECTRONICS FESTIVAL in massachusetts the week before APEX FEST III.
