Metal distros and sales: 2009-W15

The $39.98 LP

CM Distro has a new look. It now resembles The End’s distro, which has a 5% sale off nearly 1000 items for the month of April.

Relapse has unveiled a new Nasum t-shirt. Also, pre-orders of Brutal Truth’s new CD, Evolution Through Revolution, from Newbury Comics include an autographed CD booklet.

Willowtip has pre-orders up for the forthcoming Magrudergrind CD – also available bundled with a t-shirt.

Nuclear War Now! has the new Villains album, Lifecode of Decadence, in CD, LP, and diehard LP editions. Also in are the LP of the latest Hooded Menace album and Snakepit magazine #17, which comes bundled with either a 7″ or 12″ by Assassin.

Profound Lore has a few shirts, designed by Watain’s Erik Danielsson, remaining from The Devil’s Blood’s recent US dates.

Anthrax’s Fistful of Metal will be reissued on vinyl on May 12, 2009. This deluxe 25th anniversary edition comes in three colored 10″s in a tri-fold, die-cut sleeve with historical photos (pictured above). It will retail for a teeth-rattling $39.98.

Black Sabbath’s Dehumanizer (and the other Dio years records) has gotten a 180-gram black vinyl reissue. It’s available at Rhino, Insound, and Hellride. Revisiting this hidden gem should whet the appetite for Heaven & Hell’s The Devil You Know, due out April 28.
