Announcements
Digital download store Metalhit.com has launched the first of many future monthly compilations to be available for free download worldwide. Owner, Mike Riddick, comments:
"What’s unique about these monthly compilations is that they will feature as-of-yet unreleased tracks from metal bands spanning a variety of genres. Metalheads want to be ‘in the know’ on the latest titles, and what better way to do this than to offer up legal downloads of the latest from metal’s greatest labels...days-to-weeks before their official release!"
Metalhit’s first compilation includes 11 downloadable tracks from Agoraphobic Nosebleed, While Heaven Wept, Blut Aus Nord, Feral, Necros Christos, Nightshade, Putridity, Satan’s Host, Spearhead, Hope for the Dying, and Leaves’ Eyes.
The compilation can be downloaded at this location. Another set of free songs will be available in May.

Agoraphobic Nosebleed (abbreviated as ANb) is a grindcore band formed in 1994 in Springfield, Massachusetts.
Its line-up has changed often during the years, leaving the only permanent member Scott Hull (guitars, drum programming), also a guitarist in Pig Destroyer. The current line-up also includes vocalists Jay Randall, Kathrine Katz of Salome, and Richard Johnson of Enemy Soil and Drugs of Faith, who also plays bass guitar.
Agoraphobic Nosebleed are one of the most well-known drum-machine grindcore bands, and have been a huge influence in their genre.
Lyrically, themes of substance abuse, terrorism, extreme violence, and nihilism are frequent, though many of their songs reveal ideologies similar to those held by the punk culture.
The band is known for the brevity of its songs. Their album Altered States of America features 100 songs (including one hidden) in just under 22 minutes, with many songs of 5 seconds or less, and the longest song only 1:45.
Agoraphobic Nosebleed played their first live set at the 2003 New England Metal and Hardcore Festival. As their appearance was unscheduled, Pig Destroyer cut their set short so they could play two songs and an intro.
In 2006, Hydra Head Records reissued Agoraphobic Nosebleed's 6" PCP Torpedo as a double disc set entitled PCP Torpedo/ANbRX. The first disc consisted of the 10-song, 6-minute original single. The second disc is over an hour's worth of remixes of songs from PCP Torpedo by breakcore and noise music artists.
In 2009, the band released the album Agorapocalypse on Relapse, available as a CD, LP, and longbox CD.
The split 7" with Crom was released a month later on Regurgitated Semen Records.
In 2010, the band released a split 7" with The Endless Blockade for Relapse Records and a split 5" with A.N.S. for Tankcrimes Records.
Agoraphobic Nosebleed have many releases forthcoming, including a split 7" with Agents Of Satan for Relapse, a 7" with Lack Of Interest for Deep Six Records, a CD/LP with Despise You for Relapse Records and a split 12" with Thrones for Hydrahead.
Randall is currently working on Drum Machine Gun 2 as well as doing a collaborative 7" with Wadge and a collaborative 12" with Black Mayonnaise.
