Anarcho-punk warriors From the Depths will be touring the eastern half of North America this fall. They’ve also released the recording they completed earlier this year as a split CD with Colombian hardcore band Nagaf.

From the Depths has released their “Germinate” recording as a 13-track split CD with Colombian hardcore band Nagaf. Including members of long-running Bogota d.i.y. bands such as Res Gestae and Reacción Propria, Nagaf brings nuanced anti-authoritarian politics to a take on the hardcore punk tradition somewhere between Point of No Return and His Hero Is Gone. Their tracks on this release are alternately suspenseful and thunderous, benefiting from crisp, powerful production.

The split CD is produced by the following labels:

Straight from the Inside (Bulgaria) Masapunk (Chile) Persistencia, Direccion Positiva, La Sospecha Criminal, Sin Fronteras Discos (Colombia) Acclaim Collective (Japan) Disonancia Distro (Mexico) Cria Cuervos (Venezuala)

This fall, From the Depths will tour the eastern half of North America; this will probably be their last tour on this continent for some time, as they have plans to go to Europe in 2010. They’re still looking for help booking the dates marked with “*”s. Contact them via booking@fromthedepths.info.
