The next few weeks are going to be pretty crazy, so I'm trying to bite off smaller pieces, as opposed to letting lots of news pile up.

I've packed up a bunch of mystery boxes over the past month and I've been back to my storage space a couple of times to pull more stock to include in them. Thanks to those of you who ordered a box recently!

BLOODYMINDED

The BLOODYMINDED Instagram profile is picking up steam and followers. Here are a few images, but please check them all out: @bloodymindedchi

This first one is probably the most significant one, at the moment... the test pressings for our forthcoming album arrived this week and upon the first few listens, they really sound great!

















ALBUM UPDATE:

We're reviewing test pressings... Cartons and cartons of gatefold jackets are here and they look fantastic... We teased the CD digipak in the last update. Did you notice? Here's the front cover:

 

We've continued posting these album teasers, with key lyrics from the album. Please feel free to save and share these images on FB and IG:

ANATOMY OF HABIT

We're playing this Sunday on a really strong bill and we hope to see all of our Chicago friends at The Empty Bottle. Doors are at 8:30 and there are only three bands, so it shouldn't be a particularly late night... but from the looks of things, the world is ending, so it probably doesn't matter. Here's the Facebook invite: https://www.facebook.com/events/243836813169172/

INTRINSIC ACTION

Intrinsic Action was an industrial/power-electronics band, founded by Mark Solotroff in 1984, in Chicago, and dissolved in 1995, in New York, when BLOODYMINDED began.

The Fortieth Day is the duo of Isidro Reyes and Mark Solotroff, both key players in the heavy-electronics outfit BLOODYMINDED, a band known for its aggressive and confrontational live shows. In The Fortieth Day, Reyes and Solotroff utilize guitar, bass, drum machine, and analog synthesizer to create epic, blackened, psychedelic-industrial drone soundscapes.

MARK SOLOTROFF

As I previously mentioned, I've been working on a new release and it's at the cassette duplicator now. I spent a few days working on the cover artwork and I can share an image of the printout, while I was in the process of cutting them to size.



It'll be packaged in a 5" x 7" poly clam shell album with a wraparound cover and it'll include a pin and a download code. The title is "The Myth Of Community" and the track titles are "Administrative Framework" and "Institutional Transparency."



Here are the pins... continuing the theme of the Chicago River Confluence map design used on my patch and my T-shirt, as well as on "Radial Communication." The new cassette cover utilizes variations of the mapping and a satellite image of the area.
