08/02/2010 BREAK EVEN JOIN ANCHORS AWEIGH

Since forming in the suburbs of Perth in 2005, Break Even have endured almost every experience a young band can; the highest of highs and the lowest of lows.

The former includes putting out 2 successful releases and touring the country countless times with some of the biggest names in local and international hardcore. The latter on the other hand, includes undergoing numerous lineup changes and on a greater scale, a tragedy in the death of a band member.

In November 2008 Break Even experienced the unthinkable, when their guitarist Rowan Willoughby took his own life. Rowans untimely death took a toll not only on the members of the band, but with everyone in the hardcore community, leaving a giant question mark over the future of the band.

After some time the 4 remaining members returned to the rehearsal studio to see if they could go on with what they’d come to know as Break Even. Out of this process came their debut album, The Bright Side.

Aptly named, it's a story of birth and death and everything in between. Recorded in March at Reading Room Studios in Perth, it is an honest and passionate statement that was written to remember, to inspire and to never forget.


Anchors Aweigh Records will be releasing The Bright Side in Europe as limited edition 12 " LP, in 2 different colored wax. To support the release the band set to embark on there first European Tour this april/ may on the Deez Nuts/ The Ghost Inside/ Awaken Demons tour. Catch Break Even from April 16th - May 23rd.

02/12/2009 DAGGERS "Along the Acheron" pre orders up.

Recorded and mixed by Ben Phillips ( November Coming Fire, Bossk, Gold kids.. ) and mastered by Magnus Lindberg ( Cult Of Luna, In Flames ) Along The Acheron turned out to be also an uncompromising and pitch black piece of dark thoughts. It will tear down all false hope the world is feeding on. With their raw and pissed off sound they wrecked several stages all over Europe. With 2 years of existence Daggers is a relative young band, yet they know what they are aiming for. Each show more souls gather at these intense live performances and Daggers have already proven to be one of the most promising Belgian hardcore bands of the moment.

tracks list :

# 1 Animated Bones
# 2 Dirty Minutes
# 3 I Owe You Nothing
# 4 Kv 77: << Ouverture >>
# 5 Dragged Down
# 6 Last Debt
# 7 Mercenary Masses
# 8 Charon's Path
# 9 Introspection
# 10 Ashes and Dust
# 11 Kv 88: << Finale Dolor...
# 12 Fuckin Filled
# 13 Insel Der Toten

09/10/2009 MTL OWL T SHIRTS !

Since we're not the luckiest human beings in the world we're now having some new trouble. There's nothing we can do as always but you're all pissed off at us : fair enough. We apologize for being late on shipping them over but the printing shop fucked the artwork up: basically they printed the image on negative and you can understand how bad the whole thing looks. So we're sorting all the shit out and gettin them re printed this week and shipping them over to you quickly. We're terribly sorry again, hope you can understand us though.

08/10/2009 DAGGERS join the family !

The latest addition to the Anchors Aweigh Roster is DAGGERS. Hailing from Belgium, this four headed monster set out to leave nothing but ashes & dust. Their debut full-length "Along The Acheron" is a bastard of full speed aggression lurking in the gloom to prepare for the final blow. Prepare to pay your last debt or bow down to the mercenary masses. With their raw and pissed off sound they wrecked several stages all over Europe. With 2 years of existence Daggers is a relative young band, yet they know what they are aiming for. Each show more souls gather at these intense live performances and Daggers have already proven to be one of the most promising Belgian hardcore bands of the moment. After their first collaboration with Ben Philips they now recorded their first full length with him. This new record turned out to be also an uncompromising and pitch black piece of dark thoughts. It will tear down all false hope the world is feeding on. “Along the Acheron” will be released in august on the mighty “Anchor Aweigh Records”, sharing the roster with other killer bands like Tortuga, Dead Swans, More Than Life…With this release the band is ready to take the next step up, a life dedicated to being on the road throughout Europe. Ready to give their life and soul to this, Daggers will tour as much as possible to promote this monster.

A new song called "I owe you nothing" is up now at www.myspace.com/anchorsaweighrecords

or head up to their page Daggers myspace page

Pre orders and other infos will be announced soon.

Thanks to everyone who ordered our releases during the summer, we gonna keep our promises reganrding shipping times and any other pre order deal. Our tour ( Gk) was incredible and so was the More Than Life / DS one as far as I know so cheers for showing up / buying our merch / givin us a place to crash : we love touring !

Check out Skate For Satan cause most of the pics (at the moment) have been taken from there..

11/06/2009 Anchors Aweigh welcomes Lighthouse

Ever since forming in late 2007, Lighthouse have recorded 2 Demos and an unreleased EP. Now with their debut Album "Abyssus Abyssum Invocat“ to be released this summer on Anchors Aweigh Records , this five piece is ready to spread their crushing & complex, yet melodic take on the genre. Recorded at "Die Tonmeisterei“ adding more complexity and sleeze to their previous material one is literally dragged through one hellhole to another to hit rock bottom.
Let yourself sink.

10/05/2009 Orders update

First of all we need to thank everyone of you guys for supporting this young label over the past 2 years of activity, we're super happy about all the good feedbacks we've been getting in such a small amount of time... it rules to know blogspots and other internet bullshit are not killing the real passion for vinyls and releases in general as everyone predicted !
Concerning our new releases we've been working really hard to guarantee the best of the customer service but sometimes our commitment couldn't win the fight with that bitch called "luck" ... Sorry if anyone got involved but it wasn't our fault !!!
As you know the Gold Kids lp went through several troubles due to the production factory being terribly horrible with us and lyin about the release dates / shipping time and basically everything else. It has been ages since this release has been announced so we gonna make sure you gonna forgive us adding 2 releases to your package... SORRY again for all the troubles but it was out of our control !
Here are details about al the pre orders :

Dead Swans "southern blue" 7 inch second press
We started shipping them last week so all the pre orders will be shipped within the end of this week.

Gold Kids "the sound of breaking up" 12 lp
Will start shipping the 15th
