Falsehood - Demo


Bandcamp Link
Facebook Link


Falsehood hail from Edmonton, Alberta and features Durell from Mahria on drums along with dudes from a whole bunch of other bands I have never heard of. These guys are trafficking in the sort of fucked up, nihilistic damage that bands like Eyehategod and Electric Wizard have been so adept at pummeling us with over the years. Doom and dirge and thrashing anger and a nightmarish, hash-fueled hellscape are the names of the game here. Quite often, these songs remind me of some of the early "Black Metal" by the likes of Bathory and Hellhammer. They also cite His Hero Is Gone and Swans as points of influence. Distinctly Lo-Fi, the whole thing sounds sparse, urgent and hollow. Not hollow like lacking substance, but hollow as in these songs might be the soundtrack to your own private hell where you are the last person standing after the nuclear winter has stolen all other life from the earth. As you trudge through the darkness, starving, half-blind and scared out of your wits, Falsehood might be the sound of a welcome end.

Catheter at Libertatia 2001

I was trying to find some live footage of an old band some friends and I were in.  Unfortunately, I don't really think there is any in existence.  So, here is Catheter playing at Libertatia 2001.  They played right after we did.





Oh, by the way...

Libertatia is an annual camping and music festival lovingly organized by my Sisters and Brothers in arms.  We are Pyrate Punx.  We are ANTI-RACIST, ANTI-SEXIST, ANTI-HOMOPHOBIC, ANTI-XENOPHOBIC.  We have been hosting this yearly party for fourteen years now.  You are all more than welcome to come party with us.  Every year, the location remains a secret so as not to arouse the suspicions of the BLM or local law enforcers.  If you have any interest in attending, volunteering or playing the stage, you can contact me here.  Don't be a bonehead, Anarchy can succeed.
