Everything Goes Cold Joins Forces With Chicago's Bit Riot Records



Following a six thousand-year struggle for dominance amongst an increasingly primitive and outrageously uncouth swath of electronic rock competitors, EVERYTHING GOES COLD has finally chewed through the barbed-wire fence of obscurity to toil endlessly in the eternal Valhalla/Duat/Hades of efficient marketing and sales upon which tread all signed bands. Yes, you have understood this correctly: EVERYTHING GOES COLD has joined forces with Chicago's BIT RIOT RECORDS to usher in a new era of bewilderment and unending algor.

Fronted by Eric Gottesman, one of Industrial Music's most prolific and multifarious performers, EVERYTHING GOES COLD are preparing to unleash "EVERYTHING GOES COLD VS. GENERAL FAILURE", the full length follow-up to their 2008 debut EP, "PREPARE TO BE REFRIGERATED", which showcased their wit and megalomania against a solid backdrop of remixes from classic artists like HATE DEPT. (Underground Inc.) and BABYLAND (Metropolis) as well as contemporary heavy-hitters like SAM (Pro-Noize) and LIFE CRIED (Noitekk/COP Int'l).

After a brain-rattlingly loud mini-tour of the west coast in 2008 with Babyland and a series of explosive concert appearances with everyone from 16 VOLT (Metropolis) to COMBICHRIST (Metropolis/Out of Line), EGC isolated themselves in the studio for months, forgoing all sunlight and the gentle caress of woman-kind, producing well over ten minutes worth of pounding, dense music with lush vocal harmonies, chunky guitars, and aggressive electronics, extolling themes of robotic domination and technological terror.

Banding together with the vicious corporate might of BIT RIOT RECORDS, the new album "EVERYTHING GOES COLD VS. GENERAL FAILURE" is finally ready to be unleashed upon the unsuspecting populace.

Start running.

Free Cyanotic vs. Rabbit Junk EP, Exclusive Merch & a Contest all during Precursor Tour

To celebrate the hybrid band, dubbed Cya-Junk teaming up for the Precursor tour, the band has announced they will be offering exclusive Cyanotic vs. Rabbit Junk merchandise to their fans on all tour stops.

Here is a sneak peek of the Tshirt.

Per special request from the Cyanotic crew, www.bitriotmerch.com will be making this very limited Tshirt available online from July 6 through July 11th for those fans who cannot attend this EPIC event.

In addition to all this, the band is offering a FREE 3 song digital EP, Drek Kick, which will be available starting July 3rd at www.bitriotrecords.com.

Drek Kick Track Listing:

01. Drek Kick [Precursor Tour Demo] - a declaration of why we create our brands of noise.
Cyanotic and Rabbit Junk come together to rally against all the pitfalls that come with
being active members of the music industry.

02. Demons - originally appearing on Rabbit Junk's seminal "Reframe" album, the song has been
rebuilt as a prototype of what to expect from the Cyanotic vs Rabbit Junk live set, a unity
of power.

03. Gak Bitch [10 year anniversary] - originally a song by The Shizit [JP Anderson's digital hardcore act pre-Rabbit Junk]. One of the main influences during Cyanotic's early stages, this classic audio bombast was put together in a furious 12 hour recording session between the Cya-Junk crew.

All songs reassembled by Sean Payne (Cyanotic) and JP Anderson (Rabbit Junk/Shiznit). Mixing and Mastering by Jamie Duffy (Acumen Nation/DJ Acucrack).

While you are grabbing Drek Kick at www.bitriotrecords.com, why not join the Bit Riot Records mailing list? Everyone who signs up while the band is on tour will have a chance to win a signed copy of Cyanotic's futuristic audio assault,The Medication Generation.
