We've been on a bit of a live hiatus for the past couple of years while we were concentrating on slowly (so very slowly) writing some new stuff. We'd never wanted to get to the point where we were just going through the motions but it was becoming a case of where we'd only get together very sporadically to dust off the rust and run through the set for a gig or fest every 6 months at most.
Going forward it had become clear that we weren't all on the same page as to what being in the band meant and where it fit in with life's priorities. So with the intention of keeping the band as an active, creative group we made the difficult decision to part ways with Leggo and move forwards in a different form. When Leggo first contacted us back in 2006 with the suggestion of getting back together for a one off gig (the Feeding of the 5000 event in London in 2007) we never thought it would go beyond that let alone we'd end up playing all over the world and releasing a whole bunch of new records. It really has been a blast and we've had some great times and we wish him nothing but the best for whatever he's up to in the future.
As the world slowly ground back into life after the pandemic we had played a couple of gigs as a three piece in 2021 so figured we would just continue in that format, however when writing new stuff we just felt that it was too restricting however had very little appetite for searching for or auditioning potential vocalists. We then pretty much had a collective thought...”Hey how about our buddy Wes??”
Cue entry from the wings, mister Wesley Brown, we've known Wes years, he has served time growling/screaming in Norwich bands Jackals and Midnight Parasite, he's also a totally kickass artist (and all round good egg).
We're super psyched to have him on board and it's already injected a whole new energy to the band. We're looking forward to getting back out there making some racket live later this year and are already well into getting a new album's worth of material together that we're planning on recording as soon as we can.
Anyway, please welcome Wes to the party and let's get our crust on.
A 15 track CD compiling all the tracks from our post reformation releases, 'Liberty Crawls to the Sanctuary of Slaves', 'Husk' and 'Dance of the Plague Bearer' plus a couple of other split/download only tracks.
Bringing all these recordings together marks the end of this particular era of the band.
We've some exciting news regarding a line-up change coming really soon and look forward to sharing plans for the future as we get set to launch into new horizons.
Crust like fu*k!!
2 February 2024 | Dance of the Plague Bearer EP
Recorded during the 'Husk' sessions back in 2017, 'Dance of the Plague Bearer' '12” 45rpm EP features 5 reworked old classics that have all seen time in our set list amongst new songs over the past few years.
Along with the forthcoming 'As the Crow Flies' '2000's discography CD, this 12” bookmarks the end of the current era of the band as we move into the next phase with a new album in the not too distant future.
Available via Terminal Filth as a vinyl pressing of 500, 100 on black and yellow A/B split vinyl, 400 on black vinyl, with full colour outer and inner sleeves. Digital release via Bandcamp or your favoured streaming service.
Terminal Filth Stench-Core is now available on CD featuring the new release artwork plus bonus live tracks recorded at Newcastle Riverside on 6/1/1987 and remastered by Bri Doom 2023.
In 1986 Deviated Instinct entered into their first proper studio (even though it was still just an 8-track in someone's spare bedroom) to record their second demo. Driven by an Antisect and Amebix obsession, plus the fledgling thrash and death metal scenes filtering into their anarcho punk background, these 10 songs were recorded in one frantic day. A darker, more metallic sound was developing, yet undeniably still staying true to their punk roots. Terminal Filth Stench-Core was born.
Armed with a master tape they hastily set about duplicating as many as they could on trusty double tape decks. With bundles of flyers sent out through the mail they were surprised when orders started arriving from all over the world. Through mail order, bags of cassettes sold at gigs, and then being added and swapped through the burgeoning global tape trading scene, hundreds of copies were soon in circulation.
36 years later, Terminal Filth, in partnership with our good friends from Agipunk in Italy, are finally making this classic available on vinyl in its entirety for the first time. With new artwork from Mid and remastered by Bri Doom, a limited edition white/black a/b mix version as well as regular black vinyl due to drop on 06/06/2022 but now available to pre-order on Bandcamp.
Cassette tape and CD formats to follow shortly

6th December 2017 | New releases planned
Been a while, but here's some news of some new (and not so new) noise we have planned for 2018.
Way back in February we went into the Studio at the 1in12 with Bri Doom at the controls to record some new shit. As with everything we seem to do, things have been moving at the pace of a particularly slow glacier. However we should finally have our new 4 song 12" ep 'Husk' out on our own Terminal Filth records and therefore also via Bandcamp sometime early next year.
During that session we also recorded 5 oldies that have been in and out of the set over the past few years. At first they were just intended as download extras but we've decided to put them together as a second 12" ( coming out a little while after Husk).
Both new 12”s and the Liberty Crawls 12" with other odd tracks will also be released onto one CD later in the year.
Depending if we sell enough to generate some funds we also intend to reissue the classic 1990 Nailed 12" (with new artwork) later in the year.
On top of that we've heard that Peaceville have plans to finally re-released Rock 'n' Roll Conformity and Guttural Breath on vinyl next year. We'll pass on more info when we get it.
Look out for a preview track from the new e.p on YouTube soonish.
