Finally, the third LP from AGNOSY has arrived!
Dark, heavy, galloping crust from the streets of London. AGNOSY is back to present us with a ferocious beast of an album that can only be forged by the anger and frustration of living in today’s world. “When Daylight Reveals The Torture” aggressively attacks evils such the current rise of fascism and animal abuse. It intelligently and passionately touches on the Afrin invasion and the revolution in Rojava and shows nothing but utter disgust toward the arrogance of humankind’s lust for greed and power that will inevitably lead us down paths of war and environmental devastation.
While lyrically AGNOSY are much more politicly straight forward this time around than on previous releases, musically they have expanded on their sound to create a dark and moody atmosphere while at the same time staying crust as fuck. To say they know what they are doing would be an understatement from this band of vets whose members have played in HIATUS, HEALTH HAZARD, and BEGINNING OF THE END.
Long galloping intros are followed up by traditional d-beat, fierce solo’s are then meet with vicious vocals and pulverizing bass in a brilliant recording captured by Lewis Johns at The Ranch Production House and was mastered by Brad Boatright at Portland’s legendary Audiosiege. We then pressed on deluxe heavyweight 150-gram vinyl, printed on reverse board jackets, and included an 11in x 22in gatefold insert to bring you a high quality and truly epic record.

Thank you for doing a print zine for so long.
Much so respect.

Are you all perhaps planning to do something similar to the PDF back-issues that are in your webstore? Regardless, keep up the good work. PE is an inspiration to us all.
PE is currently running by a very small skeleton staff of paid workers (mainly to keep the distro going) and everything else is done by volunteers (I’m one of them). If we can find time to reformat more back issues to PDF files we’ll do it, but right now we’re concentrating on setting up the web zine.
Dude, it’s not a webzine…heh heh heh.
Old issues are almost always popping up on Ebay and a ton of distros and shops have loads of back issues, more than we do actually. If we have some time in the future we might get to posting some of the old stuff, but really we’re focused on looking ahead.
I’m really happy so far with this site and the change to digital.
I would also like to see the back issues up as PDFs. The issues that appear on Ebay sometimes go for over $30.
I will see about scanning what I have, but I can’t do the tabloid-sized issues.
