Here is the band official bio:

SXOKONDO
(pronounced shock-hondo, from the esperanto word for Shockwave)

It started as a 4-piece hardcore band in 2012 in Biel/Bienne, Switzerland. The band later welcomed a second guitar player and moved to a darker path, influenced by the likes of Breach, Botch, the old Converge songs and many other chaotic heavy music outfits. After a 2-year hiatus that followed the departure of the drummer, SXOKONDO started rehearsing again with a new drummer (and also the singer, who left, came back because he was bored at home). And with musicians coming from various swiss bands like Elenkhos, Mass Control, Churchill, Bunkr, The Stand or Desert Hobo, SXOKONDO is not a band of newcomers. Basically, they know their shit. And they will provide with an intense and extraloud live performance.

KØDE in the Division Records family!

After a short break to enjoy a little bit of sun during this summer, we’re thrilled to get back to work for this second part of the year! We’ve 3 releases planned by the end of 2019, so we better get started with this first one!

KØDE is a band born in Lausanne a few years ago under the impulsion of Saskia (you might know her since she was part of The Chikitas). After a first EP released through our brothers at Cold Smoke Records, the band is now ready to release it’s first album Discrete Transformation via our small structure, and we couldn’t be more happy about that! Read the whole biography HERE.

The music displayed on Discrete Transformation is very personnal but also reminds of styles we’ve always liked here, at the Division Cartel. There are noise rock/grunge influences in there, as well as deep slowcore stuff. It’s also very rocky, even punky and somethime gloomy. Well, you’ll have to make an idea for yourself, I guess! The album will see the light on October the 18th & we’ll throw a huge release party the next day in Lausanne @ L’Espace Autogéré in order to celebrate properly!

The album comes in a delicious black vinyl with reverse printed cover & the cd is a pretty digisleeve with a 24 pages poster folded insert. It’ll of course also be available in digital.

Because one release party is not enough, we’ve also invited KØDE to our 8th VENDREDIVISION where they will exclusively present their new songs especially for you, lucky bastards! It’ll take place on September the 20th and we’ll offer the champagne! Be there early!

 

We’ll of course unveil some music very soon, stay tuned! In the meantime, why don’t go greeting our new band on their social media?

Bunkr release day!

The cat is finally out of the box: Today is the official release of BUNKR’s first album « Schluss »

« The style is quite difficult to define, but on this album we find a good math rock base, a more angular noise rock sound and the sweet purring of stoner with a touch of psychedelic rock. These guys embody a certain idea of eclecticism, since they confess to adore both techno and JAAAZZZZZ as well as d-beat hardcore… Schluss thus deploys his personality in several distinct parts, and rhythmically it plays with odd times signatures, in addition to the conventional 4/4, to create disturbing and haunting grooves. In the end, this album forms a 45-minute soundscape reminiscent of some of the Impressionist or Pointillist paintings, but that does not really matter, as long as you can shake your head… »

The album is released in coproduction with our friends from COLDSMOKE RECORDS and can be found in every good records store, as well as on every streaming plateform.

Order your copy on vinyl (limited blue colored still availabale) HERE.

Coilguns @ Vendredivision#5

Cette fois on peut vous le dévoiler!!!

Le Vendredivision 5ème du nom se tiendra le 07 décembre et aura l’honneur d’accueillir les sémillants COILGUNS pour une soirée de douce folie! Les 4 lascars seront tout juste rentrés de leur tournée européenne en compagnie de Ken Mode et Birds in Row, autant vous dire qu’ils seront chauds bouillants et légèrement en mesure de tout dévaster, pour ensuite ne rien reconstruire.

Finir l’année avec ce groupe totalement emblématique de notre si beau canton (hum…) est pour nous une véritable joie tant qu’un immense honneur!

Et on ne participera pas au ramassage de dents qui découlera de leur prestation massive et électrique!

A bientôt!
