UNDERGROUND MOVEMENT

SPREADING IRELAND'S BRUTALITY WORLDWIDE

About Me


Click to zoom in on my visitor map!
Underground Movement (formally Toxic Records) was started in 2000 by myself and John Toxic of Toxic Promotions and in 2001 we released the first compilation “Intoxicated” volume one which was an all Irish Metal/ Punk and Hardcore comp, in 2002 we released Coldwar’s debut album “Whorebred and Hellraised” by 2003 John was to busy with gig’s to continue with the label so he went on and continued with Toxic promotions, and in 2003 I released “Intoxicated” volume 2 (International). Due to people continuously mixing up the label with promotions and hounding me for gigs instead of John (Sorry John) I changed the label name to Underground Movement, and in 2004 I released “Intoxicated” 3 (International). In 2005 Both Coldwar and the label brought out the bands mini album “In the suns dead rays”. All the releases are available in stores throughout Dublin or direct from the websites if you’re interested that is, and why would ya not be? Support your local underground or die!! In late 2006 I released “Intoxicated” volume 4 (All Irish Metal comp) which has turned out to a fantastic comp and it looks and sound great. Next up is either going to be the first Irish Tribute to Thrash called "Thrash & Burn" or a project I’ve been threatening to do for years, the first part will be out in early 2007 it’s called “Aggressive Tyrants” 20 years of Irish Metal, it’s going to be a trilogy and at the moment I’m about 3 quarters way through volume one 1987-1993 and the best thing about hunting for stuff that has been long gone like demo’s/photo’s etc is you find out interesting stuff about the early Metal scene, shit ya start to feel like a professor of Ireland’s Speed metal history, but anyway I’ll struggle on and keep you posted on it’s progression, work has already begun on Intoxicated 5 so expect it out mid '07.The label website will be up and running soon, so until then support the local scene and do something!! Start a label/ do a zine/ distribution/ gig promotion, whatever!!!!!! Oh yeah, and don’t let the bastards Grind ya down!!!!!!!!!!...........Ian Lawless UNDEGROUND MOVEMENT [email protected] IRELAND'S BRUTALITY WORLDWIDEAny bands/labels interested in trading please get in contact, i'll be setting up a small distro through the UN website over the next couple of weeks.......

Sounds Like: Any bands interested in Volume 5, it's 20 euro per minute, there are 12 bands confirmed already, and each band gets 10 copies in return to sell, use as beer mat's whatever. Remember the whole idea behind the compilation series is to document Ireland's underground and to prove to all outside these shore's that Ireland's not just Bollox boy bands and Leprauchauns!!!!!
