I thought it might be fun to introduce the buying public to some of the fascinating characters behind the music H13 is releasing.
First up is Tyburns political firebrand vocalist, John Olley.
Formerly known as Fat John, many of you will be familiar with Mr Olley from his stirling work with independent skateboarding company, Iron Column.
In this rare picture we’ve managed to capture John with his guard down. Relaxing at home with a mug of Horlicks vegan substitute and enjoying a musical trip down memory lane. What’s he listening to? Smart money says it’s the Face Up 7”.
Todays treat is a new track from London’s MOAT.
Counting former members of Abandon Ship and the hugely under-rated Frightener amongst their number, Moat deal exclusively in stark, ragged and relentless metallic hardcore to create a truly suffocating atmosphere.
If you’re into the grim vibe that was typified by bands like Bloodlet or early Disembodied, check out the track above taken from the forthcoming split with Tyburn on Hemlock 13 records and surrender to the misery….

Tyburn hail from London and will be a releasing a new split 7” with Moat (ex Frightener/Abandon Ship) on Hemlock 13 in the not too distant future.
Counting former members of UKHC stalwarts xCanaanx and HHH among their number, these two new songs demonstrate a vicious evolution from their earlier demo.
Tyburn channel the righteous disgust and visceral spirit of bands like Left For Dead, Earthmover and Haymaker. This is seething metallic hardcore like your cooler, older brother was in to. If you can remember when bands had more songs than merch designs, and shirts ONLY came in XL…this is for you.
Reblog and spread the pestilence….
