Introducing Black Shapes.
Black Shapes having only recently formed have already released one of the strongest debuts of 2012. Their self titled EP fuses the sounds of early Converge, Comadre and straight up heavy as fuck screamo.
This 5 track EP will be released on a super limited edition CD and digital release and pre order for these will be up next week.
Mosh O’clock
Catch them at one of there up coming shows.
We are stupidly happy to announce Tangled Talk as first new label to join the Pink Mist fold! Tangled Talk are doing ridiculously exciting things with ridiculously exciting bands and we couldn’t be more chuffed to help out the label.
Tangled Talk Records is a small independent label based in London, UK which is owned and operated by Andrej Presern. Since its inception in February 2008, the label has built a strong reputation within the UK’s alternative/hardcore scene for its role in finding and championing exciting and challenging homegrown artists such as Bastions, Kerouac, Goodtime Boys, The Long Haul, Pariso, Battle For Paris, Let’s Talk Daggers and Veils; and for releasing records with a strong commitment to physical formats and creative packaging.
Although often perceived as a ‘hardcore label’, the past year has also seen Tangled Talk work with an increasingly eclectic range of artists, including Leicester-based electronic/dance producer, Blak Nite (who’s debut remix album, Versionen was released in May) and US spoken word/folk/“talk music” duo, Listener; who’s last two albums are due to be released by Tangled Talk Records in the UK and Europe in November.

In addition to this, the current month signals the arrival of the first ever Tangled Tour; a week long UK tour featuring seven of the bands associated with the label (Bastions, Kerouac, Goodtime Boys, The Long Haul, Battle For Paris, Let’s Talk Daggers and Veils). The tour, which is sponsored by Thrash Hits, offers an incredible opportunity to witness six sets from some of the most intense and passionate live bands in the country; perfectly capturing everything the label represents, as well as a preview of what’s to come in the next few months.
