EEE label acquisitions…

e3recordings — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 02:18:00 +0000

So we have acquired 2 new sub-labels into the EEE label system. We are now fully operating, manufacturing and distributing for;

First Spell Productions – Extreme Blackened Art

Dammerung Productions – Pagan Black Metal and Ritual Folk Music

Both of these labels were originally based out of Illinois, but due to certain circumstances were no longer able to continue to function as independent entities. Thus our initial absorption of these labels into the EEE family, will no doubt make our label that much more diverse and wide-ranging.

The first fruits of this new development find ourselves possessing both labels small back catalogs, which we plan to re-issue sometime over the next few months.

The first re-issue will be of the debut from a project known as ‘Funeral Eclipse’ whose 4 song EP ‘Among Castles and Thrones…We Are Forgotten’ is a pummeling mix of older Darkthrone-esque primitive black metal rage, mixed with an overtly melodic bent much akin to Dissection’s classic ‘The Somberlain’ record. An absolutely brilliant album for only being 20 minutes long.

We will also be issuing an album from Bahrain Pagan Black Metal warriors ‘Kusoof’ sometime in the future.

Stay tuned…

EEE signs Ziklag to roster!!!

e3recordings — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 19:14:11 +0000

I told you the next blog update would not take forever

I would like to welcome Ziklag to the ever-expanding EEE roster. Ziklag was a band (yes, a real band, that played concerts and all that) that existed from 1995 – 1998, out of the USA. Ziklag had released 5 releases in that time (all rehearsal demos mind you), played about 15 shows and then parted ways. Ziklag first played a style of Christian death/thrash metal, in the old-school vein. But then switched to a more black metal / ambient sound on their last release. We will be re-releasing all 5 releases on one disc entitled ‘Fire Fell From The Skies’ sometime in 2009. Be sure to keep on the look out for that!!!

Wow! Almost took 2 months on this update!

e3recordings — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 22:07:39 +0000

Yeah, i know. A bit late on this update, but rest assured i have some killer news for all the EEE fans who are reading this!!! First some stuff from the website;

December Releases!!!

Be sure to pick up all of our amazing December releases in the EEE Store!

New items from Njiqahdda, Drommer, Erasmus, Old Forgotten Lands and Flaskavsae!!!

I am sure you have seen all of this stuff already. Just wanted to restate it again.

Also, we will be offering two FREE downloadable EPs as our Christmas present to our supporters and customers, within the next week. The first EP will be a teaser from the new Élan (Old Forgotten Lands, ex-Day of Ascension, Élan, Astral Forest…) fronted project known as Asgath. It will contain 4 tracks from his upcoming 2009 release entitled ‘Miscommunication’. Amazing experimental, droning, blissed-out, noisy ambient. Absolutely stunning release that creates an atmosphere like no album you have heard before.

The second FREE EP will be a 10-song EP from grindcore/death metal project W. This EP is titled ‘Circle of Dead Demons’ and is a pre-cursor to the upcoming 2009 release called ‘Spiritual Grind Battle’. 10 short, chaotic and grinding slabs of drum-machine led, blasting technical grindcore. For fans of secular projects like Psyopus, Napalm Death, Circle of Dead Children, Nasum, Coldworker and Complete Failure.

More info coming soon (even some addressing some rumors about EEE floating around!). Sooner than the last two updates at least.

First EEE site update in 30 days. Yay!!!

José Barragan (R.I.P. 1982-2008) from Flactorophia

e3recordings — Fri, 09 May 2008 23:55:03 +0000

José Barragan (R.I.P.) from Flactorophia (Christian Grind/Crust/Death Metal)

We are a bit late on this news, but find it incredibly saddening nonetheless.

On April 20th, 2008, José died in an accident that happened at a local gig. The place caught fire, and he, as well as 14 others, were killed:

God bless him, his family and all those who are affected by this terrible loss. See you in heaven brother.
