so if i can make one suggestion, under format it lists CD+digital for the CD releases, yet there is only one ordering option, unless you click on the stream/download link to the right, which is fairly small. i can imagine that people ordering the CD will think they are also getting a digital version (not that it matters since they can rip it anyway, but I was confused, and I know my way around an internet)

i dont mind, just some feedback.

duly noted. first time I have heard that, and i do an average of 8-15 sales per day. But I'll toy around with the wording/listing so it is a bit clearer in the future. enjoy the music!

All praise be to our friend Toots!

Jonathon was the brains behind the operation!

still tinkering with some small stuff. got a page or two to work on a bit, but I am thrilled with the way it has turned out! Got some splash pages in the works, and the big open should be in a week or so!

then it's time to sell some new records!

DOWNLOAD THE FULL ALBUM FOR ONLY $.99 cents!! www.playtheassassin.bandcamp.com

On their debut LP Hands Pressed Against the Glass, Oh The Horror bring the world a new hybrid; equal parts aggression, melody, and all-out aural insanity – the kind of insanity one would expect from a band with song titles such as “How to Fuck a Model” and “How to Kill an Actress”. And although Oh the Horror are undoubtedly a heavy band, that is only one part of the equation. Drawing influences from bands like the Deftones, The Mars Volta, Glassjaw, and Radiohead, Oh the Horror has sculpted their own vision of metal: brutal, yet catchy vocals play upon groove-oriented riffs and ambience, leaving just enough room for progressive motifs and hyperactive breakdowns, painting the band a personality all their own.

Thanks ya.
It didnt turn out exactly as I had hoped, but I had set a side a budget that I had already over-spent many many times over.
If one of these next two releases hits like I hope, then I'll have the guy take the above a bit further!

first bit of press rolled in this evening....people are hating on the name, but loving the music, which is all that matters to me...

Quote:

Add another band to the list of amazing new metal acts to come from NYC: So Hideous My Love, despite their awkwardly cringe-worthy, side-swooped haircut-invoking band name, do a fine job combining black metal musical aesthetics with tight, atmospheric soundscapes ala Junius, Constants, Moving Mountains etc. So Hideous My Love technically aren’t unsigned — they’re on small indie label Play the Assassin Records — but let’s give them a mulligan on this one.

whoa, they dropped Junius and Constants. those bands are rad, and fine fellows too

Twilightkid · **Posted:** Thu May 05, 2011 10:42 am

It's so nice (for once) to have people buzzing about a band before the PR campaign even truly begins...I sent it to one magazine that i think is important for coverage, and he mentioned it on his personal FB page, and 4-5 people have reached out for review materials...this is gonna be a fun ride.

Twilightkid · **Posted:** Wed May 11, 2011 5:58 pm

1st video review..
guy gave it a 8.5 out of 10.
guys voice is tough to listen to for more than a minute....imagine if he hated the record..

Twilightkid · **Posted:** Thu Aug 25, 2011 8:22 pm

Details next week...
