Swords & Chains Records presents Visigoth!

Now out on Swords & Chains Records is Visigoth - Final Spell EP/Vengeance Demo limited to 100 numbered copies on tape. Visigoth is a heavy metal band based out of Salt Lake City, Utah and has earned the slogan Salt Lake Steel.

Side A contains their brand new 2012 Final Spell EP which is 4 tracks of their best music to date. Side B contains their 2010 Vengeance Demo released for the very first time and exclusive to this tape release. It contains 3 original tracks and a cover of Omen's classic anthem Battle Cry.

This is a must have for any self respecting pure heavy metalhead. Less than 25 copies are left after the rest sold out in preorders, so you better go get them now because if you snooze....you lose!

Folks still buy tapes, huh? Bitchin'

Yea man, there is still a market for them. I personally only buy and plan on releasing demo tapes and thats it. Full lengths on tape dont make any sense to me, rather have the cd or vinyl but i think tape is the perfect format for demos.

Cool. I personally haven't had a working tape deck for a few years now, but if you can make some coin from dubbing tapes, more power to ya!

Some labels are starting to join in on making tapes again. Relapse recently issued Pig Destroyer's Book Burner on cassette.

There are quite a few labels doing tape releases, but they're mostly the underground independent labels doing them. When more major labels such as Relapse, i personally think they're doing it to cash in on it.

Personally, i released this tape and future demos on tape because its affordable and gets the music out there and its the perfect format for demos. I dont want to be lumped in with the hipster portion of tapes because thats the farthest from what i am trying to do.

Tapes are sort of a hipster thing. Maybe you should consider doing USB flash releases? Those would be cool to try, and have bigger market too

I cant tell if youre being serious or not but hey you bought a tape

Yeah, but I'll be putting it on eGay on the morrow, Yo! If you keep a tape less than 24 hours in your possession you're not a hipster

Hey I love your label name.
