Awesome New Band - Rule Of Thirds

Apologies if you've already read this on the Shadowplay blog ;)

Rule Of Thirds are an awesome new band from Adelaide, South Australia (which also happens to be the home of Cannibal Roses and Shadowplay ... but I'm not biased or anything :P)

They are a mix of goth and post-punk, and we think are in a similar vein to Joy Division, Skeletal Family, early Christian Death, etc. Nice!

You can purchase their cassette by emailing majorcrimesrecords@gmail.com, or you can download their demo from the Systems Of Romance blog. And if you're in Adelaide, make sure you catch them playing live - we did, and they were fantastic!

This is the track included on September's Cannibal Roses:

Guilty Strangers - 'Oracle'

My friends Guilty Strangers from San Antonio, Texas have just released their new album 'Oracle' for free download on Zorch Factory Records - get it HERE! 

I describe them as post-punk with a goth/deathrock tinge ;) 

Their other releases on Zorch can be found HERE - check them out!
