UPDATE 2025:
NEW RELEASES- COTM 025!!!
Suture/Question Everything Split Cassette Swedish neuroviolence ensemble Suture will be destroying you very soon, you can check out their previous tapes on bandcamp, the new material is pure killer no filler and enough electronic/noise disonance to keep you uncomfortable. Question Everything is a onemattgrind band from Stoke, UK-numerous comp tracks were put together on Owlripper Records amd now finally a physical release beyond comps. Expect hypergrinding vitriolic bangers.

ENDINGS- THE BIG SELL OFF!!!!!!!
Dont worry there are many plans to continue the label but the distro is being sold off.
This took some time to make the decision after so many years but with increased problems with being able to trade since Brexit and postage increases it was getting harder and hareder to keep the distro up to date and also to keep the prices punk. The hope is that more time and effort will go into thinking about our own releases and with a more manageable box taking it to gigs is much more possible.
Maybe in the future there will be a return to it but at the moment the real drive is to release more records and tapes, using any talking/sharing to be about these.
Check out the lists to get yourself some amaxing bargains everything must go and other cliches etc etc etc

ENDINGS- GIGS ARE STOPPED (except one)
After 25 years of putting on gigs we are going on hiatus from this. This is likely to restart in the future but at the moment there is one matinee banger later in the year in Stoke and thats it. There are others putting gigs on in the Stoke area and so this is no real problem at this time.

Restarting- WE GO FAST AND SLOW ZINE!
Unfortunately the pandemic reduced issue 2 of we go fast and slow zine to online download only. Both previous issues can still be found if you are interested....
Issue #3 will be traditional hand written cut and post but will be scanned in and available here on the COTM blog. The plan is it will be a smaller zine but with the idea of more frequent issues and keeping it upto date as much as possible and a little more spontanious, it will be less professional looking than the other 2 issues but be more spontaneous,imperfect,human.
