3FOLDPAIN-'Into Your Depths' 7'' vinyl now available in limited 500 copiesin 500

After the superb 3FOLDPAIN's self-released 'Don't Trust Them' EP/CD, Lighten the Underground has the honour to release the first band's 7'' vinyl release, named 'Into Your Depths'.
Containing the self titled and the 'Will be the End' tracks, 3foldpain invite you to travel, through their music, to their world of emotions.
 Needless to say that 3foldpain are among the most talented and innovative metal bands I 've ever heard. The words which will follow (and express my admiration to this band) can also be found to the vinyl's inner sleeve, just below the tracks' lyrics...

'Sometimes best things in life happen when you don't expect that they will. This happened with 3FOLDPAIN. Almost out of nowhere, I heard their music one day totally by accident and, already from the first moment, I understood that they are not a usual band..... Beyond the dramatic and tearing voice, the cruel but at the same time mourning guitars, the thumping low frequencies and the tyrranic drum playing 3FOLDPAIN's music is the entrance to an ocean of emotions where tidewaters are human sensations..... I won't try to give a label to their music just because pioneers are not easily categorized. I will only tell that I couldn't turn my back to the enthusiasm, the psychic harmony and the feelings created each time I hear them, this why you hear them through this 7'' vinyl..... Meet the veils of progress dwelling in theirs!'....

POWERCRUE-The Sign of Rage' reissue in vinyl format only

Just a few days before the twilight of 2010, Lighten the Underground has the honour to (re)release in vinyl one of the most legendary albums, not only of the hellenic metal scene, but also of the european in general.
The legendary POWERCRUE's 'The Sign of Rage' is now available again, only in vinyl format, 14 years after its initial release.
Words are few to describe this traditional heavy metal diamond, just because very seldom nowadays we can see releases of such quality.
Those who have already heard this album know very well what I 'm talking about.
Metallers, if you claim you are true metal fans and you like Accept, Running Wild, early Savatage & Dio, it is forbidden not to have this album. It can easily compete the masterpieces of these bands.
'The Sign of Rage' is an all-time classic album too, following the musical heritage that POWERCRUE's predecessors left.
Below, you can find the words written by L.t.U. in the vinyl's inner sleeve, just below the lyrics, as a small tribute to one of the most historical heavy metal albums of all times.



'Well, I spent almost no time at all to decide whose band's stuff I would like to release first in vinyl. After a demo and hundrends of saliva dripping live shows, POWERCRUE decided, back in 1996, to connect their amplifiers with history, with the "The Sign of Rage" album.
In essence, this vinyl is a tribute to one of greatest european heavy metal (with the real meaning of the term) bands which, after almost over 20 years, still exists (despite the difficulties) and maintains its heavy, original and uncompromising sound and its devotion to heavy metal.
Besides, does anyone forget the all time classic "Before the End" with the majestic riffing and soloing, the magnificent "Forever" with the fantastic melody and the immortal riff at the chorus, the incandescent speed metal anthem "On the Run" with the a la Dio riff and the bombastic "Torture" with the thunderous double bass-drumming?
Is there any true metal fan who can disregard the made of iron "Last Command", the vigorous "Enemy Brothers" or the speed metal love song "Spent On You"?
In a very diffcult time period not only for hellas but for the world in general, certain things seem to never lose their value: "The sign of Rage" is rereleased to remind us what rage can do.'
