Robotic Empire Launches Man Is The Bastard: Bastard Noise new release!



Hey guys. We're so excited to announce our June 24th release which is a new album from BASTARD NOISE titled "The Honesty Shop". Yes we know we are a day early but we are so stoked we just can't wait! For the past 25 years, BASTARD NOISE has articulated it's mission between the spectrum of sheer, primitive "caveman electronics" to the spectral fascination of man's ridiculous "legend in his own mind'" status and regression through technology. With over 90 releases to date, enter the brand new full length LP by Bastard Noise titled "The Honesty Shop". Two long form compositions at nearly 20 minutes each that were custom designed, arranged, recorded, mixed and professionally edited by Michael Rozon ("THE RED LIST", "A CULTURE OF MONSTERS", "SKULLDOZER" and "ROGUE ASTRONAUT" to name a few).

This time around the line-up of Bastard Noise consists of New York based sound designer/performer Anthony Saunders and founding member Eric Wood. Vast, post Armageddon landscapes riddled with extremely dynamic geography that is crystal clear in delivery and accentuated with Wood's most brutal and extreme vocals to date. Cut by engineer master David Cheppa (NWA, GETO BOYS, BLACK FLAG, KRATWERK, etc.), "THE HONESTY SHOP" is a must have for all mutants addicted to hearing more in sound.

Packaged in a screen printed, single pocket jacket including a screen printed insert (screened by our buds at Broken Press in Seattle!) containing lyrics, this release is limited to 400 copies on clear candy colored pink vinyl, 100 of which are a deluxe version including an enamel pin and cloth patch. Cloth patch is white cloth with black ink and we have 2 color versions of the enamel pin, silver and gold. Sorry, no choice on the pin color, we will choose when packing your order.

On a personal note, I (Lindsay) just want to say that it's been an amazing pleasure to work with and get to know Eric Wood further throughout this project. He is an amazingly talented man and a very unique individual who cares so deeply about what he creates and the world and people around him. So honored to know him and be a part of his art in this small way. Thank you Eric for the opportunity.

Well we hope everyone is as excited as we are for the new BASTARD NOISE release. Head on over to the Robotic Empire Online Store now and pick up your copy before those deluxe versions sell out!



In addition to the new June release we also have picked up the new Radiohead album along with a decent amount of their back catalog. We were lucky to be able to score the WHITE COLORED VINYL for the new Radiohead! Don't overlook the Mary And The Small Omission cassette from Iron Pier Records please. Gorgeous sounds you need to hear, give the bandcamp link a click and check it out. Alright here's your complete list and we're also relisting last months update because it was killer and you need to glace through those items once again. Last month was the release of Pig Destroyer's Painter Of Dead Girls Deluxe vinyl reissue. The colored version sold out fast but we do still have some black vinyl available, not for long though. Get some new tunes, slam us with orders, keep us busy! Folding cardboard around your happily placed orders gives us an immense amount of pleasure! Thank you for the support, you keep us going!
