"The phonograph is not of any commercial value."
- Thomas Edison, 1880
It's taking some time for me to settle back into my daily routine
after APEX FEST III, and with a forthcoming trip out of town for
thanksgiving week, the residue of upheaval will most likely not fully recede
until next month.
I owe thanks to a great number of people, but the list is long so it
seems more prudent to simply state that i am lucky to have had the
experience of working with so many amazing individuals. as many people
know, there was a lot of stress and difficulty surrounding the
preparations for APEX FEST III, but in the end it turned out to be much
more enjoyable and successful than i could have expected. this is due to the
incredible people who put so much of their energy, effort and in
certain cases, money, into helping me to realise it, and i thank you all from the
bottom of my soul for making it such a phenomenal experience.
Copies of the STUDY FOR A THEATER OF CRUELTY CD by MARTIN BLADH are
now in stock and have been added to the webstore as a standalone item,
separately from the special edition. the shirt design has been with
the printers for over a month, but they haven't yet gone into
production.
i'm looking into a good printer to do the large artwork for the special edition, so i may not be able to ship them until mid-december.
if you've ordered the shirt/cd combo and want your cd shipped without the shirt, let me know.
I've also added some new distro items to the webstore, including
releases from THE VOMIT ARSONIST and BEREFT, as well as the left over
APEX FEST III shirts and posters. if you missed the opportunity to
come to the shows, at least you can dress as though you were there.
more distro items will be going up soon.
2010 will be the 13th year of existence for ANNIHILVS, and several new
releases are being planned. it's likely that i'll be making a
transition to primarily releasing vinyl in the new year, with a few
LPs being discussed.
As previously announced, i will begin shipping orders for items other
than the preorders at the end of this month, and into mid-december. by
that time all preorder items should hopefully be in my hands. the fest
took a lot of my time, energy and money, so certain things had to be
pushed back. rest assured they are all coming together, and most are
in various stages of production. for example, all shirt artwork has
been with the printers for at least a month, if not more.
Finally, it is entirely possible that APEX FEST III will be the final
live event that i organise. the climate in new york has become far too
fickle and indifferent to warrant the monumental stress and expense it
takes to do these shows. i'm not saying it can't happen, but i am
saying at this point i have absolutely zero interest in ever doing it
again.
As always, thank you for looking and listening.

APEX FEST III - CHANGE OF VENUE

Due to a seemingly disastrous conjunction of circumstances, we have had to change venues for APEX FEST III. we regret any inconvenience this may cause, if any, but it is necessary in order to allow us to continue forward with the event.
the new location is:

NYC
please note also that the lineup for friday has been changed. APHELION will not be appearing, and has been replaced by THEOLOGIAN (Leech from NAVICON TORTURE TECHNOLOGIES). tickets will be available at the door on each night of the shows.

Yet another month has withered away and died, and here we are with less than a week to go before the second annual NORTHEAST NOISE & POWER ELECTRONICS FESTIVAL.
THEOLOGIAN will be appearing on saturday, november 7.
http://lasciviousaesthetics.blogspot.com
I've completed the audio and layout for the cdr release, MAXIMUM BITTERNESS HAS BEEN ACHIEVED, and will have copies on hand at the fest. i received the new shirts on friday, but unfortunately they were not printed to my specifications, and i have to wait until tomorrow to see if the printers can replace them by the time i have to go up to boston.
One week later, APEX FEST III will be upon us, beginning friday the 13th of november.

Listener-supported radio station WFMU will be giving away two sets of 2-day passes on the air.
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...

"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.

This long-delayed and anticipated solo release by the genius frontman of Swedish industrial legends IRM.

Cavefors. Jewel case cd release housed in a large vinyl album. Shirt is limited to 36 copies, cd is not.
Audio preview coming soon.

THE VOMIT ARSONIST+THEOLOGIAN.
WRETCH TSHIRT/WRETCH REIMAGINED CD-R/CASSETTE

The first in a series of new tshirt/cdr/cassette releases, this item serves as a celebration of THE VOMIT ARSONIST's recently released WRETCH cd from FORCE OF NATURE/CIPHER PRODUCTIONS (http://www.forceofnature.cc/releases/?rid=FON19).
The cdr and cassette each contain different material, constructed by THEOLOGIAN from original album source tracks. Limited to 36 copies.

All-new material from the new project from leech of NTT, constructed from practise sessions in preparation for the upcoming NORTHEAST NOISE & POWER ELECTRONICS FESTIVAL II taking place in Massachusetts in November 2009.
