NOOTHGRUSH – Kashyyyk – LP (30th Anniversary Edition)

The legendary Kashyyyk demo by sludge gods Noothgrush was originally released in late 1995. Back then, it was a pure DIY tape-trading affair – each copy was dubbed onto used blank cassettes found at flea markets, leaving the other side a complete mystery. Three of these songs were originally recorded in August 1995 as the 8D8 demo, but once guitarist Matt joined the ranks, three new songs were added, and the demo was named after Chewbacca’s home planet.
This definitive 30th-anniversary release brings you a piece of heavy metal, sludge, and doom history, featuring unique artwork and collages put together specifically for this anniversary edition.

Bonus Track: Features the song Gage, recorded on January 19, 1996. This is the ultimate original version with Matt Harvey on vocals, before Gary re-recorded them for the Cry Now Cry Later vol. 4 compilation.
Line-up: Chiyo Nukaga (drums), Russ Kent (guitar), Gary Maderhoff (bass, lyrics), Matt Harvey (guitar on tracks 1-3, vocals on track 7).
Production: All tracks recorded at Trainwreck Studios. Remixed and mastered by Greg Wilkinson at Earhammer Studios in 2024.
Now is your chance to own a timeless piece of sludge/doom history!
