Flush it Friday x Bandcamp Friday: A Joyous Day
There’s a lot to do on this Smarch edition of Bandcamp Friday, so let’s get to it!
FAITHXTRACTOR – Loathing & The Noose
Redefining Darkness | January 10, 2025
Building on the success of 2023’s Contempt for a Failed Dimension, your favourite True Believer Farm Implement opened 2025 with a blast from the legendary death metal past. Opener “Noose of Being” is positively relentless, a bevvy of lightning-bolt solos, razor-tight drumming, and riffs upon riffs upon riffs. While the first two tracks as well as album-favourite “Flooded Tombs” follow this pattern, the album otherwise abounds with surprising moments of both melody and blackened reverie. Want to be bludgeoned? Or would you prefer to grieve? What luck! Redefining Darkness is offering 10% off this album and everything else with code bcfriday.
Shrine of Denial – I, Moloch
Transcending Obscurity | March 7, 2025
Even those of us whose job is keeping up with TO releases find it hard to keep up with TO releases. I, Moloch is for folks who can’t get enough of fellow Turks Serpent of Old. This is winding, expertly crafted blackened death metal that will blossom throughout 2025 before showing up on more End of Year lists than expected. While TO isn’t running any BCF deals, Kunal has a fundraiser to get much-needed care for one of the many stray cats he and his team tend to. Find that fundraiser here. Give a few bucks while marveling at “Oneiros.”

Past Inside the Present | January 13, 2025
Everyone’s favourite ambient label is offering 15% discounts with the code pitp. You can also get the entire digital discography for $145, 80% off the sticker price. Need some time to think about it? The latest album from Brock Van Wey will pulse and glitter its way into your overcrowded yet empty brain and create within it a vast, near-endless space for peaceful contemplation. No one knows what’s happening, though the short- and long-term outlooks are more than dire. Find something to give your attention that deserves it. Calm yourself. Study. Listen. Read. Then take a walk with me.
Need more? This is the last—and best—day to get discounted CDs, shirts, and bundles from the absolutely sick new Chaos Inception via Lavadome. Wanna hear some older Holy Death records? Use bcfriday for 10% off over at Seeing Red Records. Is Jute Gyte your thing? Is donating to Doctors Without Borders also your thing? Then buy some JG with all proceeds going to DWB. Oh, you probably like gnarly sludge from Leipzig. Use code springtime for 20% off everything from Zeit. You need more? Cheese and rice, bud. God Mother is running their full digital discography at a 40% discount.
We know there are more juicy, seductive, can’t-miss BCF deals out there. Share ’em in the comments. But first…
It’s time to motherfuckin’ flush!
Stick is wrong about Kardashev but right about Rwake in this week’s TMP. Roldy got Froggy with an especially stacked TTT.
Stevo awarded 3.5 Flaming Toilets to the forthcoming Rwake. This matter will be handled personally and professionally.
Hans gave us a lovely review of all things Carnal Forge. He’s a mensch, that Hans.
A Crash Course in Carnal Forge with a Review of The Fractured Process
Toilet Radio 547 features Joe n Jordan doing what they do best: talking about stuff that makes us all pretty upset.
Just an absolute bounty of minis from Stick and 365. Get stuffed!
Brock couldn’t be diss-uaded from dropping a frankly upsetting amount of crazy shit in one post. This might take months to get sorted.
My superego refused to let the week pass without writing something about the new Holy Death.
What a week! Lotta posts up there. Go read ’em. Go let the contributors know what ya think. Share your BCF hauls below. Drop the GBUs. All my love forever. XOXO
