Two brand new releases up for pre-order on Loud Punk Records

LOUD 37 The Epidemic - Losing Control EP 7"
Originally intended to be the 5th release on the label(LOUD 05) Boston, MA's THE EPIDEMIC unleash their long overdue 2nd release the "Losing Control EP".  Recorded in 2007 this follow up to their fantastic "S/T" LP ended up being shelved due to first a bad mix followed by the tragic death of guitar player Matt Frado. In 2013, after a long day of drinking in the bar at the worlds largest arcade I was finally able to convince Jay(vocals) to have the session remixed.  Needless to say any of the technical issues that plagued the session were now fixed and the recording was everything it should of been in the first place! This EP is 3 tracks of classic UK style: catchy, melodic and hard hitting punk that brings to mind bands like CONFLICT & ICONS OF FILTH.   Members have also been seen doing time in such bands as Sadist, Who Killed Spikey Jacket?, Forn and The Spoils since then. Limited mail order copies come on clear vinyl with blue and yellow splatter


LOUD 40 Zex - Fear No Man 7"
After the demise of GERM ATTAK, singer/guitarist Jo spent the next few year writing songs and plotting his next endeavor.  In 2014 Zex was born and they wasted no time taking the punk scene by storm releasing an astonishing 2 singles, an LP and several tapes all within a year of their first show! After some extensive tours all over the world they are back with their 3rd single "Fear No Man" which packs a mean punch of melody and aggression.  The B Side "I Didn't Know" comes off with the sort of effect you would expect out of VICE SQUAD covering "End Of The Century" era THE RAMONES.  This record is the bands strongest material to date and a good indication even greater things are to come
