Mother Eel: Slaughterfest IV + The Idiocy/Generosity Cycle

It is about time to announce that the long talked about 7″, The Idiocy / Generosity Cycle, has not only a release date but also a performance to launch the precious piece of vinyl.

Mother Eel has been kindly requested, a request they did not refuse, to grace the stage of The Sandringham Hotel, 387 King St, Newtown, NSW for the annual event known as Slaughterfest.  This year being the fourth year of Slaughterfest’s run and the number four having many significant meanderings, it all combined with a great line up to feature as a launch for Mother Eel’s vinyl release.

So Mother Eel will be launching the 7″ The Idiocy / Generosity Cycle on the 30/07/2011, both at the gig and through the record label Grindhead Records, which will post any release for free, worldwide.

Slaughterfest IV

Mother Eel have a brand new set list to launch the 7"

Slaughterfest also boasts giving away, to the first 100 payers through the door, a free CD containing tracks from each band that is on the event.  Mother Eel is gushing to say that they recorded 2 tracks specifically for the release, so if you were to combine the 7″ with the Slaughterfest IV CD, you would have many new Mother Eel tracks to enjoy.

Elsewhere on the internet, it has been unveiled what the cover for the 7″ looks like.  It’s probably an appropriate time to do so here…

The 7″ is limited to 100, hand numbered copies, all colour, all mastered by James Plotking (Isis, Khanate, OxLxDx) to bring out a big dense sound.

Looking forward to performing to you, subjecting you to our sales pitch and getting your ever-lasting admiration when you spin that disc.

Gig Photos And Reviews Oh My!

There was a great turn out for the intense event that saw us go so far that we blew out the power of the venue.  For those of you that didn’t experience such a spectacle, you have been offered the chance to live it through words and pixels, that’s all we’ve got left.  We say it often and will repeat it here: you must get out and be at these things people!
Here are two reviews of the show:
Dude Rocket, “it didn’t let up until they left everyone for dead”
Mystic Metal, “And boy did they fucking bring it!”
